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.
- 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.

Thank you everyone for partaking in this magical little round, I hope I did acceptable as a host.
And now let's see what Pogakure has planned for us.

Friends Nobody Likes
Ah yes, friends. What is life without them? They pick you up when you are down, they stand beside you through thick and thin, and they generally treat you with some degree of respect.
And then, there are these guys.
The Friend Nobody Likes is a weird anomaly within a given friend group. They can be rude, abrasive, and sometimes downright evil. Under any other circumstances, you would never give an asshole like them the light of day, but for whatever reason, be it pity, utility, proximity or worse, you just can't seem to get rid of them no matter how hard you try! It is the fictional incarnations of this specific breed of douchebag that we have gathered round to (dis)honor in this round of the Elimination Game.
Similar to the last round I hosted, we'll (by default) start two days from now regardless of how many entries we have. This will be modified if we manage to hit the minimum within the first 24 hours. Enough with the preamble. Your nominations, if you please…
"Hmm... it appears that browsing this wiki doesn't seem to violate any school rules. Continue." | My WallThat was my topic for my round... Oh, well. I've got more.
