Welcome back to the Tournament to End All Tournaments! Well, yesterday was certainly our worst vote turnout yet, with only 3 total votes. Who knows what may have happened if more people decided to come forward. I certainly expect better turn outs in furure match-ups. I wouldn't want this concept to die out from disinterest. I hope today's contest helps remedy that--with one of the greatest fantasy characters of all time participating!
Help me find out who the most awesome/badass character/person of all time is!
How would one accomplish such a task? Why by pitting every awesome and/or badass person/character/historical figure in a 512-person bracket style tournament that leaves only one person standing in the end. Who will it be? You will decide.
There is no voting criteria. You can vote for a participant based on whatever you please. If you feel that person would be the victor in a fist fight, or if you think they're more badass, more epic, have better hair, or if you just like one better than the other. It's completely up to you, the voter. I want people to have fun with this, and perhaps imagine the two participants squaring off face to face.
This evening we have a juggernaut of fantasy villains taking on a real life superhuman marksman with Star Wars antagonist Darth Vader taking on former traveling sideshow shooter Annie Oakley! I can't imagine this being a very fair contest, but then again The Lone Ranger toppled Gandalf quite handily. I will not make any predictions. This battle is pretty self explanatory, so have at it, voters!
Darth Vader
.VS.
Annie Oakley
