Ok The rules are very simple.

You can only pick character's who've never had thier own series, and who have appeared less than 50 times in the last 2 years.

You must have 3 Highmeta-Mid Herald lvl characters who's abilities must not over lap in any way other than Strength and durability.

I don't know if anyone would be intersted in this type of tourney, But I'm hoping to get a time limit on it so that It doesn't last too long for each Round.

Now each team will consist of Three posters and each poster must represent only one of the obscure characters.

If you are intersted in being on a team then please let me know in this thread.

I'm only looking for 5 teams and 3 judges. I prefer the Elitist or the trinity to volunteer to judge. i can trust that they will be evil to everyone equally. smile And they know alot about comics.

I'd also like to whittle down the teams by a death of a character each round. To be voted on by the judges as to which character would get killed in the rounds, which will all be bloodlusted.

What if they were a character who only appeared in someone elses miniseries, or they were in a miniseries that didn't have any particular main character?

well get the movement going. I'd love to see mungi beat everyone to hoy hell with machine man lol. Or one of those alpha flight guys. or someoen who knows Gl's really well come in and wreck shop with an obscure GL.

Gecko4lif
Ill make a attempt lol

nvrbeenwthagirl
Ok So if you'd like to make a go of it, then Please sign up, if we can't get three to a team, we can do two to a team, Or I can modify the rules so that one person can pick all three characters. PM me with your picks and I'll make sure they fit into all catagories

True, But It will take some time for people to come up with that many cool obscure characters. So I was figuring this one wouldn't get off the ground for a bit. Research is going to be a ***** to have enough to post for an obscure character. You gotta find old showings, try to prove points by using other characters, ect.

nvrbeenwthagirl
Ok so far we have

Wonder Woman is inadmissable. She has her own series. Manhunter might have more than 50 appearances. I have to check. He may or may not be admissible. Wonder Woman can't do it.

This is for obscure characters. MM is not obscure at all, he should be banned on principal alone.

Yes. That is true. His jobber aura is so great tho lol, I doubt anyone will seriously wanna risk using him.

Plus, MM is only brought in to lose in most cases.

He had his own series, which disqualifies him. Plus, in that series, he kicked all kinds of ass.

It was a mini Series. So I'd have to say that it's admissable but counting the series, he's prolly had over 50 appearances anyway, counting his series, the JLA, ect.

gambit every have his own series?

You don't wanna give away your ideas in the thread just yet. But gambit did have a mini a couple times if My pocket remembers. Not sure tho. Been along time since he was actually popular. marvel surely drug him into the obscure halls.

A namor fanboy? good lord. big grin mini's do not count, but it will prolly push your character over 50 if it was within the last 2 years anyway.

Any and all of the would be allowed if they haven't had thier own regular monthly, aren't over mid herald or below high meta, and have less than 50 appearances within the last two years. tho Who would want to use some of them is beyond me unless they had good teamates to push thier powers further.

So... what about Doom? Apocalypse? Magneto?

I won't allow them. They aren't obscure enough for my taste. As a matter of fact, anyone with a respect thread that has more than 3 pages can't be in it.

Apoc no

What about Exodus? Absorbing Man? Etrigan? Foom? Enchantress? Grodd? Starhawk? Captain Rectitude? Drax? Lunatik? Jack of Hearts? Air Walker? Animal Man? Selene? DOS Doomsday?

Doomsday has too many other forms. Absorbing Man would be allowed but likely won't be used, he's pretty stupid. no enchantress, No mysticks allowed. All the rest are ok. except Captain rectitude. I have no ****ing clue who that is.

Hmm... interesting... I can see a couple smart people absolutely crushing this tourney... since the list of those two levels are pretty iffy... at best.
I won't say anymore though. smile

DD can't be used in any form. It gets too confusing between versions.

He still trashed The JLA and managed to kill Superman. He could be considered Border line. you make me think. I'm gonna drop the tier down another level to just highmeta-Low herald.

DOS Doomsday is in Low Herald...

But he's only beaten certain versions of the hulk. Never current WWH. certain versions of the hulk aren't that hard to beat.

Maybe. Bi Beast is ok by the rules. Limited character tho. Not sure anyone would really pick him anyway.

Val
Not trying to be a dick in anyway here but this would never make it past the draft period. Tournies are always filled people spewing lies and twisted information to get a character ok'd. This would be even worse with the loose rules.

Well, That is why I asked the elite to judge. They could actually rule on characters. To which they seem much more adept at catching. Plus the rules can be modified. I'm not looking for this to even start building up until well into Ill's tourney.

Who are the Elite and Trinity?

Hell, he had his own team...

Didn't Leader make a brief appearance in the last WWH?

Plus, you actually have to appear in these two years?

Also, what about Blastaar? Living Laser? Kang? Power Girl? Nimrod? Holocaust? Pitt?

The elitists used to include Bran and myself. How we got into the 'trinity' in the place of Quanchi and Air legend, I dunno. Make up your mind Nvr.

Oh, and I really don't see this happening.
