Oh come on ! Yes, Ivotas has left. It's sad, great user, he'll be greatly missed. But
he wouldn't want us moping around (and clogging up the FRD thread) due to himself. -

@Cyan:best laid plans put to rest by lurkers
damn you lurkers
Fucker wussed out on telling the forum why he thinks One Piece has lost it's charm.
He's told us plenty of times. Once the charm starts fading, the plot holes seem bigger, direction seem more arbitrary, the character flaws in main characters more and more unforgivable while that ones you liked seem to get character assassinated. All the similarities become clichéd stereotypes, all the differences become illogical plot devices. The magic is lost, it happens.
Well, I can't really say that. I just don't like the main character-love, which sadly happens in any series.
But yeah, some Supers are higher on my list than some SHs. But I love SHs nonethless. Each of them has a place in my heart as well does every Supernova. I can't say I prefer other over another.
It is just that I don't want SHs to beat EVERY Supernova or so. Especially since my favourites seem to be on the fireline. But I'm still having my fingers crossed for great Odaism.
This is not the place to talk about this topic though. You guys have:

Ah, thank you Sea. I really wouldn't had the brains to find the right thread myself XD
-
Well, the forum wont be the same…
-
WTF
ivotas left?? wtfwtf
i <3 that guy
:cwy::cwy::cwy: come back ivotas
-
yea we all love ivotas. but sea is right. lets get back to topic. since its last match and this would be closed soon.
so this was one hell of a first round. lots of really close matches. but what do you think.. which was best match?
-
Best match? Others were ruined by boats… but The one I had most fun with was probably Jinbei vs Johnny & Yosaku.

Ruined by boats? :wassat:
I liked Makino vs Kizaru,I was actually campaigning in that match,until the so called mix-up.
-
Yah, I don't get on the mood in matches where the other contestant is a piece of wood. coughsunnycough
-
Doflamingo's in the same area as Chopper, Bon etc for fashion. Pinky world.
Although Robin seems to shop at the same store as Chopper. Lil Tykes World. Which is why her clothes always seem to be too tight.
So yeah. Vote for Robin. Because she doesn't need to dress like a twat to impress people.
Flawed logic, Local.
If Robin is buying her clothes from the child section, which is what the skanky girls usually do, she is indeed dressing like a twat to impress guys with her figure :P

Well either way. Robin's wardrobe is still way more awesome than Doflamingo's what? Two outfits? That's been generous too.
-
But that's true for almost all the guys of One Piece :P Girls like clothes, of course they'll be dressed up more XD
Dofla has his signature, it works. The rest of his wardrobe consists of things not… entirely appropriate for... daily wear >_>
-
I'll say Kizaru/Makino, Aizen twist and maid Bobart were hilarious.
The coby/Dugongs was nice too, i enjoyed my time with the campaining.Edit: Oh please Local Arei don't start arguing, the thread is on it's way of ending, give us at least your impressions/expectations.
-
I can't think of anything that was amazing. Aph vs Auger was great. As was Luffy vs Franky
I enjoyed Hina vs Caimie simply for the closeness of the match too.
If Robin beats Doflamingo then that too.
I just didn't like the constant whining of people against the SHs (waaah! Lurkers! Waaaah! So and So woulda won if there was no SHs!) and the anti-boob campaign angst. It's all fun and games folks.
-
-
Kizaru vs Makino vs Aizen was brilliant. Can't wait to see Aizen wreck shit in Round 2

Pwngoat vs. Buggy vs. Aizen
Just as planned.
-
i think my campaigns might've made camie and going merry win! or maybe i just wanna feel important lol…
most surprising was pwngoat. most disappointing was lucci... he's so underrated and it wasn't even close lol!! :getlost: most unfortunate was franky... he's 1 of my favorite shs :sad:
-
I'm still disappointed in the outcome of Tashigi vs. Saul… This was Tashigi's year, dammit! =(
-
Right
-

I don't remember this XD
Although now that I think about it. Has Tashigi even done anything except be the spitting image of Zoro's dead Dalek friend?

She was an important character in the Alabasta arc.
-
Loved Kuina vs Enel (ELECTRIC STAIRS!!!)
I will always remember Makino vs Kizaru (BEDFART!!!!!!!)
Pwngoat's and Merry's, because the BB and Kaku suporters didn't realize that they were the ones bringin down their characters. Please keep being buthurt, without your help I'm certain that "stoopid memez" wouldn't be able to go on.
Everybody wants Kung fu dugongs!
June matches weren't as fun as the may ones, the tournament has been in first round for too much time.
Next year follow the world cup example and in early rounds do 2-3 matches a day please!
-
I think it'd be cool to do the next tournament's preliminaries similar but slightly different. Instead of the top four in each heat, do the top three, in addition to the 32 highest non-qualifying vote-getters overall. (Percentage or raw, doesn't matter) That way matches with lots of awesome characters will get more characters in, while generally lame matches can put only three in.
If any of the above makes sense.
-
we are down to 64 who will get lucky with their match ups this time :whistling:
-
Bringing Pwngoat down this round, unless he's against Crocodile or Whitebeard. Or Usopp. Or Zoro. Or Brook. Hell, I'll take out Luffy too.
-
Nah strawhats will be getting boosts with new manga chaters, so will some additional characters
Hancock
Rayleigh
Jimbei

I'd nickname it "The Perona Clause"…but then there will always be gripes. In particular that someone who took fourth in one highly-voted round got way more votes than someone who got first in one that was way closer.
-
So lets see who has lest and rank them at least approximately.
Bellow will be my personal ranking meter I have made just so I ll see than in the match ups how right I was:
Luffy
Crocodile

Banchi
Sadi
Doc Q

Doc Q
Van Augur
LafitteBB pirates hate much ?
-
I feel AP forum doesnt like them yeah.If among 64 I would have to pick my favourite characters than they certanly wouldnt be at the bottom
Pwngoat, Richie etc would have the honour
So basically the above is not who I ll vote for meter, but who I think AP forums will vote for. I ll update as we get new manga chapters to boost some popularity for certain characters
-
The matches that I liked best were Luffy vs Franky (obviously) and Pwngoat vs Blackbeard :ninja:
Not that I don't like BB, I actually voted for him, but it was so hillarious. -

Based on his track record, I'd put Van Augur higher on the list myself. In the past, he's managed to beat nostalgia (Alvida), hype (Marco), and boob campaigns/memes (Aphelandra). Middle of the pack is a more reasonable position for him based on last year's results.
-
You are almost there ! you failed only for one place:ninja:
-
Yep, Whitebeard must be first
-
No, I obviously was talking about Gin being higher than Daz:ninja:
! Kuhahahahahaha
! CROCODILE
! whitebeard -

I think this is a pretty interesting idea. If the preliminaries are going to be changed at all, then I think this at least gets it off on a good start.
On a different note, the first round has gone without too many real problems for me. I would have liked to see Nojiko advance, as well as Wiper, Tashigi, and Paulie. I also had hoped that the Buggy/Foxy match would have been a real battle, as those are two villeins that I always liked, but overall there weren't too many results that shattered my soul.
Round 2 will most likely be a very different story.

The best matches were in order of aweswome
1.- Kizaru vs Makino

The first round has been great, maybe ever better than last year's.
My main favorites are still in it, Nami, Sanji, Robin, Mihawk, Kuma, etc.
Did lose some great ones though, Jango, Aokiji, plus I would've liked Hawkins to win he had a good match, etc.
Bring on round 2, baby!

:cwy: Don't remember me from what happened to Hawkins…
It was only that people voted before reading the topic. Always happens to me. Then everyone says "Oh Vepe, your campaign is good. I wish I could take my vote back now." It happens every time... even with Horny and... Hawkins :cwy:
-
The only chars I'll vote over pretty much everyone else is Robin and Chopper. I'm tempted to vote Sadi-Chan over everything (not called Robin or Chopper) just to annoy the fangirls.
Everyone else I'll wait till I see whom they are up against and play it by that. Will probably vote for Nami, Brook, Luffy, Kuma, Bellemere and Hiruluk some tho.
Watch the mods be evil and give us Robin vs Chopper next round XD
-
Watch the mods pull a fast one and give us Robin vs Chopper next round XD
That'd be bad. Reminds me of my ultimate nightmare, I don't even want to say it its so wrong…
! Sanji vs. Nami

It's not that bad for me anyways. I'd still vote for Robin XD
-
Give me Enel vs. Nami and I'll cry womanly tears.
-
Chopper vs. Robin.
I must see Local destroy himself.
