Alright, the basic idea of this game is that we take characters in media and throw them into a giant tournament together. These characters can be from comic books, video games, movies, television, anime, novels, plays, history or even present tense reality. The challenges these characters face however, are entirely random. They can be anything from combat, to sporting events to quizzes to household cooking, as such victory can vary wildly from expectations. As an example, if Professor Oak and the Punisher ended up in the same round together and knife fighting was rolled, bad ol' Frank Castle is unquestionably going to be the victor, if instead mentoring is rolled then the Prof. would be supreme. It won't always be so clear cut though, so sometimes debate is going to come into play, keep it clean though kids. I may write up flavour text for certain match-ups, depending on how much time i have in a round.
Rule 1: Your chosen character must be someone who's either well known, or easily google searchable, or i'm vetoing it, this is where the danger of real life folks come into play, we may not actually know a lot about their capabilities.
Rule 2: Please, no god-like charachters, they arn't fun. However, Gods themselves arn't neccecarilly thrown out the window entirely, long as they have some serious limitations. For all intents and purposes lets use Q as the template for a godlike charachter, he can pretty much do anything, while Thor from the marvel universe (or the Norse Mythology for that matter) is limited, and therefore is a fair entry.
Rule 3: just to clarify, your charachter does not need to be specific, you could say "Cacodemon from Doom", or "Elephant from Boatmurdered" just as easily as Gandalf or Wonder Woman.
Rule 4: for the moment lets say one charachter per person per tournament. I am waiving this rule for the first tournament however, so that we can fill slots.
Rule 5: I'll be judging, and therefore researching charachters if i need to (which i will, possibly a lot), and probably consulting with other people who know charachters better than i do.
Rule 6: For tournaments with fewer charachters each round will consist of 3 different competitions per matchup.
I have a list of random possible competitions from when i played this game before, please add to it!
