Some rules for this edition of the Elimination Game:
- Scorekeeper picks the theme. Please keep it reasonable because the last thing we need is drama. That is to say keep it from being political, NSFW, franchise-specific (crossovers can work if well-known and broad enough, and with a readily available list to choose from) or with obtuse specifications.
- The game begins with at least twenty-five entries, depending on the scorekeeper's discretion. One entry per post, and up to two posts per poster unless 48 hours have passed, then anything goes until there are 25 entrants. Wait at least two posts before posting a second entry.
- At the nomination phase, a maximum of two entries from the same franchise can participate at any given round, and if at all only one such entry per person. In the event that the theme can be restrictive, this rule can be relaxed as per the scorekeeper's discretion.
- You are not required to nominate an entry in order to participate.
- All votes add one point to an entry, and take two points away. Those points can be distributed however you wish, so long as there is one -2 or two -1s. No exceptions!
- Invalid votes must be edited within two scorekeeper updates in order to count.
- Any entry that reaches zero is eliminated. Scorekeepers send them off with an evil message [[evil:like so]]
- Space your votes between at least five other peoples' votes, unless 24 hours have passed with not that much activity. In any context, no doubleposting.
- If the host makes a post stating the intent to tally, they have up to an hour to do the tallying. Otherwise the post will be null and void and the round shall proceed.
- If there's no update for 48 hours, the game can be safely called off or taken over by a willing participant. Scorekeepers must temporarily transfer duties to a different poster if they can't do so for a while.
- This rule here is something important, so important that should be stressed! Since this game will have a somewhat competitive tinge to it, please be respectful towards others and treat this game as what it is: Just a fun game. Aggressive coercion, threats by tropers towards other tropers and hosts, and major assholism will be unaccepted, regardless if it's in the thread or in PMs. Hosts and non-hosts that receive such kinds of PMs can resolve the issues by politely dealing with the problematic troper in the PMs, but if it gets out of hand, you should discuss the issue at Ask The Tropers.

- The one entry remaining wins!
If it's been 24 hours since the last game and the waitlisted troper hasn't posted, it's free game.

I want to ask- Is Mipha our first ever two-time 2nd Placer? Because she was in 2nd place in the Merfolk round, and she was in 2nd place for this round.
Anyway, Lee, you're up next.
Edited by MummyGaGa on May 13th 2024 at 9:37:46 AM
BTW, please call me Jake.I can't believe that Mipha got sniped from becoming Champion because we mistakenly thought she already became one! I'm so sorry for turning against her back there!

Judge Matthew hereby proceeding to the bench. And you all get to play jury and executioner. Here, you nominate your lawyers, attorneys and judges. I'll even allow jury members. Who will walk away free in this Elimination Court of Law?
____
I'll allow a minimum of 25. Once we reach that limit, will keep nomination up until evening time (as I'll be busy all day, so I won't be able to update the list till then). But we'll see how we look when we get there.
