so,
be cool if someone wanted to list who they think will win or be in the finals BEFORE the picks are made so we can see how opinions change as characters are picked and we learn who has who.
might be fun to try and guess who you think everyone picked too.
anyone have a darkhorse, someone you think may well make a name for themselves in this event?

Here I'll give you the downlow on how this tourney is going to play out:
WINNER: Newjak
Everyone else
Soljer
My guess is Blair or Scoob for the finals.
Ethereal will probably manage pretty high, too.
Newjak's gonna get embarrassed by someone like....Martian Mind or Trickster. Pitiful.

haermm Stacks is probably a no-show. I dunno about beating Newjak, Scoob or Blair. Anyone else, I have a decent chance of winning. You're lucky you guys forced out Mr. Sinister.

Blair's got my bet, but here's hoping a Mongoose might win....

Oh well I can understand the attempt if you got him approved.
By the way in reality there are three former tourney champs in this tourney.
With Scoobs
BW
and Leo
So they are obviously the favorites going in.

Why did we ever get rid of the idea of ACTUALLY laying odds and betting and stuff.
All it takes is an unbiased, 3rd-party PayPal account, and we could be awarding money to the winners of these things.
And it also means that everyone would take them seriously because there'd be money on the line (less no-shows).
...
I think that's probably the only way I'd ever come out of tourney-hosting retirement. If we pulled out all the stops and did stuff like that.
For a while I thought an inter-forum tourney (KMC vs. ???) would be sweet....but the more I think about it, the more it just seems like a logistical nightmare that would end up being lots of work, no fun, and completely anti-climactic.

Not saying. I'm judging this time around, and I can match all but a few picks-to-participants right now (people seem to like to talk to me). I'd feel kinda guilty laying odds with more knowledge than anyone else, and an obligation to remain unbiased until I see the debates.
But hell, if it wasn't alreayd too far into the process, I'd be more than willing to be the PayPal guinea pig.

It would require everyone agreeing to putting money in before they enter, so at this point it's too late to do that because there'd be lag time while we set everything up and also people dropping out because they wouldn't want to do that. We'd need to establish it from the beginning....and even then, it would be...interesting.

Anyway, just based on name recognition, this should be a good tourney. A few past champions, a few vets, a couple new-ish but knowledgeable people. Only a couple "Who?" moments in the role call.

DigiMark007
Yeah. Hawksmoor on Coruscant.....the possibilities are mind-boggling. He's probably High Herald level going on Sub-Skyfather.
Or Jenny for that matter. That kind of power course could give her enough energy to electrocute God (oh wait, she did that already...

nosweat Ok, so even if he shows up, he's going down in the first round.
Also, Hawksmoor on Coruscant=Ego? I'm not so sure. Close to Ego in power, but Ego has matter manipulation, energy absorbtion, lightspeed travel, and psi-power comparable to a weak Galactus.

Lightspeed and energy absorbtion wouldn't be hard at all for Jack, given the nearly endless canvas he would have to work with.
And he'd make up for the others with Class "Arms-the-Size-of-Continents" punches.

Unsure really. The entire Authority is pretty well tp-blocked. One dude took over Jack once (Volume 2...the "Godhead" guy....forget his name), but he had to physically touch him to do it. Somehow I doubt it would work if he were phased with a planet.
TricksterPriest
Is it possible for Ego to psychically locate and remove Hawksmoore's physical body from Coruscant, thereby depriving him of his power?

TricksterPriest
Depends on Digi's answer to my question. And he'd need a good sized city to beat Apoc. But yeah, he could do it. Unless he can indeed be mindraped or removed from the city via teleport, etc. Then Poccy can win.

You were unsure if Ego could seperate him via TP, now you're saying if he is vunerable, he can be mindraped by Apoc?
Ego's TP = a good planet full of "good" Tp'ers more than Apoc could ever dream of.

But sure, if you wanted you could find off topic stuff in any poster (mods included). I was just trying to curb it in that specific thread because it was a draft thread, and the more spam there is, the more confusion and lack of information there is. This thread doesn't have that problem.
So quit looking for excuses to seem like you're a smart alec. It was nothing personal. Just watching out for the forum.

And you couldn't give me one thing Hawksmoor could do on a planet that he couldn't do in a normal city (outside of telling me War Hulk has no feats but Hawksmoor has these unforseen powers), where he gets punked by Midnighter.

Hell, the God-organism thing single-handedly shoots this theory down. The Carrier alone is city-sized, and the brain she deep-fried was probably 100x the Carrier (at least).

Ya, I guess it doesn't matter.

I'm not sure about Nightshade. even with her being restricted, her powers make her over the caps. You know what, I'm gonna try and get her kicked. She's getting in on a technicality and she's over the caps.

Neutering is bullshit. Pick a character below the level, or don't pick.
DigiMark007
I'd tend to agree about not allowing neutering, but tourney hosts get pushed into concers in a hurry by participants, even the "tough" ones. It's also hard when (usually) the participants know a lot more about the people they're picking and can cater the argument for their character to suit their needs. I'm the guiltiest party of the bunch, with some of the stuff I let into the "street" amalgam tourney.

Oh and frying the brain is what burned her out and killed her.
(remember if you read Authority Revolution it is not set in stone that Jenny's die every hundred years, in fact Jenny's brother in a sick sense Elijah Snow being unaffected helps prove that Sparks would likely have survived).

And guess what, the more city there is to damage, the easier it is for someone with Hulk level strength to beat Hawksmoor, read the comics for proof. Hawksmoor has NEVER been a threat to any credible opponent. There's a reason for this.

Ya, he's f*cked. It's bullshit, or bias to say otherwise.
Nearly decapitated Juggernaut? What the f*ck are you talking about? He flipped off his helmet, and in HULK'S words, he was going to do it.
Yes, amazing, that it never happened.
Also, nearly decapitating implies that he had already cut through his neck, and nearly took his head off.
Hulk did nothing of the sort, and really, even if he did...
It means nothing against someone who could be as big as a planet (based on the location).
HA! The only time Hulk has done something like this, is when he was shot out of a canon.
Now, he can supposedly shut down an entire attacking planet (smashing the planet)?
I fail to see how this could go any other way...
Unless (suprise), Hulk is getting overated.
Also, this arguement doesn't belong here, so I'm not going to spammzerz teh thread with this pointless (as pointless, as trying to convince ass and wang, that Storm can't beat Magneto), debate.
Since zoMG, Hulk isn't even in this tourney!
Joey Stacks
1.) Hulk had Juggs on his ass and was about to cut his head clean off. Classic Juggs has been cut before (and actually feared for his life as he was COMPLETELY manhandled unlike he's ever been before), there's nothing (outside of personal preference) to suggest otherwise.
2.) Jack Hawksmoor crashing Asia into the Hulk would be like me crashing my fist into my face and is not even close to a guarunteed kill unless the surface is made out of addy or something.
3.) Hulk has (stated more times then I can count) unlimited strength potential. Which essentially means that not only will he get pumped up constantly by the Celestial Tech he also gets the anger to pump him to greater levels. You can say bull or no f34ts and I can say don't argue with the writers and start reading comics for more then silly displays of power (especially Hulk comics).
4.) Once again, Hawksmoor has NEVER IN HIS LIFE been portrayed as a heavy hitter that he's been made out to be and has NEVER IN HIS LIFE been able to put down Hulk like opponents (hell the Authority got their asses kicked by someone with the strength of about 5 million men, women and children which if you adjust giving a VERY giving average of 200 lbs bench press is around 1,000,000 tons). Lol I can do math too, but at least there's a basis this time!

Also, he's been cut in the eyes...

First of all, your fist isn't trillions of times heavier than your face.
Second, your fist isn't also trillions of times bigger than your face.
Next, I never said kill, I said "f*ck him up".
Which, if one hit would f*ck him up, what would two do, or three (even though, I think one shall do justice)?

All that unlimited strength did terrific, when Spider-Man, Namor, etc, KOed him...ermm
Also, when you say unlimited strength, it almost, sounds like you are saying he can get more powerful than LT (since no one is unlimited besides God).
It may have been stated many times, but it still makes no sense, and he has been beaten too many times, for this logic to work (not to mention, he's in the middle of the f*cking battle, and he's not going to be standing there getting angry the whole time).
You don't have to argue with the writers to know that a certain feat is bullshit. Based on your logic, all feats in comics are all acceptable. Which, even you can't believe that (also, what the f*ck does what you said, have to do with this thread? You just repeated your arguement to Spunky, to me, and it doesn't even work, but I might as well shoot it down)...

Obviously a lot...ermm
OK, I'm done, continue with yourself, since no more spam is needed, and also, aren't you a contestant in this thing, and yet, you are debating about nothing basically?
Joey Stacks
1.) Talk about arguing just to argue, if Juggs has been cut before why is cutting his head any different? And BTW he's been cut across the body before. Him being killed by a decap is arguable, him being able to be decapped, not so much
2.) What are you talking about Fist being billions of times heavier then your face? When Hawksmoor is in a city he's one with the city. He feels the pollution, a destroyed building hurts him, etc. Him crashing an Asain sized fist into a planet sized City would be akin to me punching myself in the face. Not a bad comparison, you probably just haven't read much Authority.
3.) One hit will "**** him up" and it'd "**** up" Hawksmoor as well. Hulk is likely to heal faster though (I don't recall Hawksmoor ever healing messed up cities).
4.) Hay I can use low showings not relevant to a character as well, like when Lobo chumps Hawksmoor like he's no more then Street level or Kev blows his face off or Midnighter needs to be restrained from kicking his ass
Oops those are actually Hawksmoor in his normal incarnation unlike your use of weaker Hulk incarnations and out of context low showings.
5.) Um if LT strength is unlimited how could Hulk get more powerful? Think man, think.
6.) Actually all I require is one correctly contexted example of a bigger City making Hawksmoor more powerful then a smaller city (by correctly contexted I mean not taking events from Sparks's mini that had him acting out of instinct, not knowing what he was doing and completely forgetting the event in question). The only thing a bigger city allows Hawksmoor is more maneuvering space.
7.) And I tell you that Hawksmoor has fought lower-then Hulk level beings in a heavy populated City and not even made a blip on his radar and you still ignore this

He Turned Utra dense and fell on him FTW.Nightshade only took Superman down by expoilting a weakness...plus,it's Joey stacks....
Maybe,but no-one was complaining like this when Blair,a far superior character snuck in Black Alice last tourney due to neutering.
Blair Wind
Nightshade still created a contstruct that was bigger than a hundred mountains. Also, who says its stacks? Other than MM saying it
and pffft, Thanos would kick the crap outa BA

Tricker also says it's stacks,and the neutering makes that feat worthless.I see no issue.
So....if she took eclipso's power Thanos would win?

I don't belive for a second it was you Scoob.This was a sick and twisted act from someone who likes to work "behind the scenes".
From his words responding to my Pm i thought he'd dropped her.

Ethereal
my opinion based on judging by past tourneys, debates, tenacity, resourcefulness, and overall activity in the comics forums: Although I dont know much, the rest is left up to "intuition"
ala march madness style.
#1 & 2 Seed Spot:
Scoobless -1
Blair Wind-1
leonidas-2
Entity-2
#3 & 4 Seed Spots:
Devil lance-3
Newjack-3
martian_mind-4
King Kandy-4
#5 & 6 Seed Spot:
TrickerPriest-5
roldz-5
Joey Stacks- 6
Ethereal- 6
yeah, put myself last cuz Im humble like that

Yeah when it went past seed 3, it is truly harder to separate everyone. And I dont want anyone to feel down because your 5 or 6 seeded. I havent seen Joey Stacks here that much, or knew who he was, sorry. roldz I havent seen active. But maybe it's just me. An Trickster hasnt been focusing lately, he needs to sleep more i guess. hehe.
Going by this though. these would be the matchups:
Scoobless -1 vs martian_mind-4
Blair Wind-1 vs King Kandy-4
leonidas-2 vs Trickster-5
Entity-2 vs roldz-5
Devil lance-3 vs Joey Stacks-6
Newjack-3 vs Ethereal-6
Then
East Division:
Scoobless -1 vs martian_mind-4
Entity-2 vs roldz-5
Central Division:
leonidas-2 vs Trickster-5
Newjack-3 vs Ethereal-6
West Division:
Blair Wind-1 vs King Kandy-4
Devil lance-3 vs Joey Stacks-6
To make it fair as possible...I love making brackets

Hey,the list isn't perfect.
Also you've been here much longer then me and have had more chances to shine.Oddly enough i tied candy who's been here longer,beat Tricker who's been here longer,beat Roldz who's been here longer and beat ethereal.
I've nearly cemented myself as a KMC great in the making.
Edit:Lol,i got paired agianst a 1.

To do that you have got to beat the best of course with three previous tourney champions, two of which with more than one tourney ring, you'll have your chance

Hell,my only threats in the tourney are Scoobs,Blair and......well i'll say you.....
Kandy would be fun,but Tricker....oh,I will crush him.

Scoobs has won 3
BW has won 2
Leo has won 1
So they have to be the ones everyone is concerned with.

I'm not concerned.....I'm tingling with anticipation....as you can see from the tier thread,i never surrender...
Ethereal
It's not always about being here longer, I know others come from different sites, so I give the benefit of the doubt. the majority of picks are just personal flavor. Also, I thought entity ran a tourney once/or was a good debator? maybe Im wrong?, I also gave devi llance a high seed too because he seemed to know how to run tourneys, hehe

So to worry about me means you should probably give him more credit.
And the fact he won the tourney proves he isn't that bad.
