SmashBoards Roster Evolution (11-1, break)

[Gunla]

The fine line between uniqueness and out of place in a small roster is key in this game. If you add certain characters too early, you are screwed.

 

[Louie G.]

Yeah, Blue was the obvious choice here.
It's okay to be unique, but it's a little too early for picks like Ganon and especially Kawashima.

 

[Smasher 101]

BluePikmin because of Kawashima and Ganon.

 

[Golden Icarus]

Yeah sorry Blue, but as BigAxle said there's a difference between uniqueness and straight up obscurity. I like the addition of Anna and Ganon as unique choices, but Kawashima and Sable just seem like odd additions, especially this early on.

 

[BluePikmin11]

Yeah it's fine.
P.S., I had Sable since the beginning of this game. XD

 

[LoneKonWolf]

sorry blue, your next, you get a vote for me because of kawashima

 

[Golden Icarus]

Yeah it's fine.
P.S., I had Sable since the beginning of this game. XD

Well...I guess it just didn't bother me as much then.

 

[Louie G.]

I'm used to Blue's weird character choices, but now they really stood out as strange in a competition setting.
Really, the right strategy at this point is to play it safe until later.

 

[SmasherMaster]

This might be the hardest choice for me yet.

In the first round, I voted for Ancient Tobacco because of the lack of Mario.
In the second round aka GURL POWUH ROUND, I was choosing between Fortanono, ScatmansWorld25 and YoshiandToad for the lack of Princess Peach, the most recognizable Nintendo female. I let Lady Luck choose and she must not like Fortanono.

This round I have decided to vote for somebody who is missing the most out of the fourteen Smash series. These are Mario, DK, Yoshi, Legend Of Zelda, Metroid, Kirby, Star Fox, Pokemon, Fire Emblum, F- Zero, Pikmin, Animal Crossing, Kid Icarus and Mother.

These were everybody's scores ranking from highest to lowest.
Kon- 14/14
Jakor- 14/14
Me- 14/14
GreenReaperGod- 13/14 (Missing Animal Crossing)
Angelglory- 13/14 (Missing Mother)
Shortiecanbrawl- 13/14 (Missing Yoshi)
Smasher 101- 13/14 (Missing Pikmin)
BluePikmin11- 12/14 (Missing Yoshi and Pikmin)
ScatmansWorld25- 12/14 (Missing Pikmin and Mother)
Golden Icarus- 12/14 (Missing Mother and Kid Icarus)
josh bones- 12/14 (Missing Mother and Kid Icraus)
Fortanono- 11/14 (Missing F Zero, Mother and Pikmin)
Louie G.- 11/14 (Missing Animal Crossing, Fire Emblum and Pikmin)
ThatWasPeachy- 11/14 (Missing Mother, F-Zero and Pikmin)
Keybladeguy- 11/14 (Missing Mother, F- Zero, and Pikmin)
Tepig2000- 10/14 (Missing Star Fox, F- Zero, Fire Emblum and Kid Icarus)
YoshiandToad- 10/14 (Missing Mother, Animal Crossing, F- Zero and Pikmin)
LumaOkami- 9/14 (Missing Mother, F- Zero, Pikmin, Animal Crossing, and Yoshi)

Sorry LumaOkami, but you are missing the most series. Runner up would be Blue with Ganon, Anna, Sable adn Kawashima (Also, for those on the bottom of the list, if you make it to the next round, you might want to add characters from the series toy are missing)

Also, I might as well keep this pattern where I vote for people based on what they don't have.

 

[Autumn ♫]

I'm sorry Blue, but I picked you. Mostly for Kawashima. I was hoping I wouldn't have to chose you so soon

 

[Fortanono]

I voted for Kon, but somehow it didn't count my vote.

 

[Natz~]

I've voted for blue, sorry but ganon? kawsi- guy? really -_-

Now THIS is what I like to see when people talk about why they voted. Kudos!

 

[Jakor]

I voted for BluePikmin this time again, for adding Ganon and Dr. Kawashima. Also because of Prince Sable and Anna. Those 4 characters are rather odd choices (and obscure, except for Ganon) to add this early on when there are others far more deserving.

 

[YoshiandToad]

Sorry Blue. It's not because of Kawashima, Ganon, Sable or Anna(who I have, so that'd be a weird reason) though. I know you're a fan of those individuals, and I try to factor personal characters into my votes.

It was a toss up between you and Luma...I know you two added Wii Fit Trainer because of the last round but...it's third round and you missing Yoshi whilst having Wii Fit Trainer just strikes me as very odd.

I flipped a coin for between the two of you, and it landed on you buddy.

 

[GreenReaperGod]

Voted for BluePikmin11 because of Sable, Anna, Ganon and Kawashima.

Voted for BluePikmin because of the reasons above

 

[Autumn ♫]

Don't know how I let this get the 2nd page. But I'll bring this back to the first in case anyone else wants to vote before it's too late.

 

[SmasherMaster]

Ummm. Shouldn't the next round be starting?

Edit: It is Tuesday and it is soon to be 7 in the central time zone.

Guys, Sorry, I completely got busy. I'll update now!

 

[Gunla]

My Sincerest Apologies. I seemed to have completely forgotten about today's update, and this one is a tad late, sorry guys.

@ BluePikmin11 got the axe this round with 68% of the 19 votes! Yikes!
I guess it was because of the early additions that led to Blue's downfall. Like the other eliminated contestants, I'm glad you participated, please consider joining next game!
Starting this round, I'll start listing who won each round with the least amount of votes.

So for this Break, we'll have 25 Characters!
Special Rule- Each of the 5 characters has to be from a different "Series" (Mario Bros, Metroid, etc....)

BREAK IV BEGINS NOW
YOU HAVE UNTIL THURSDAY EVENING CENTRAL TIME TO SUBMIT A 25 SLOT ROSTER.​

 

[Starbound]

Added Diddy Kong, King Dedede, Olimar, Ganondorf and Captain Falcon.

I also merged Samus and Zero Suit Samus into one icon. But I'm still counting them as two characters, so it still is a 25 character roster.

All of the characters you added are from the same universe!

Diddy Kong is connected to Mario through Mario spinoffs.
Mario appears in the audience in the boxing arena fight against Dedede.
Link who fights Ganondorf was seen sleeping in the Rose Town Inn in Super Mario RPJ Legend Of The Seven Stars.
The Pikmin appear in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour when you hit your ball into a patch of flowers.
ROB appears in Pikmin 2 and F-ZERO GX.


Also, Metroid, Star Fox, Punch Out, Game & Watch, and Kid Icarus are all in the same universe

It says series now.
Sorry for the misconception. But well played.

Does Mario and DK count as different series?

 

[Gunla]

Does Mario and DK count as different series?

Indeed.

 

[Smasher 101]

Additions: Luigi, Ness, King Dedede, Ridley, and Mewtwo.

Wait Mario and DK count as different series? Does that also apply to Wario and Yoshi? If so I may change my roster real quick...

 

[Angelglory]

Newcomers: Bowser, Dedede, Falco, Mewtwo, Ness

 

[Kon]

Added Luigi, Diddy, Ganondorf, King Dedede and Falco.

 

[Fortanono]

Here!

 

[YoshiandToad]

I think this is going to be a tight one for me, guys. I'll do my best to try and make the deadline though.

 

[Tepig2000]

Added Bowser, Fox, Ganondorf, Captain Falcon and Marth.

 

[SmasherMaster]

Here is my new roster!

I added Bowser, Wario, Pokemon Trainer, Ridley and Mii. The first four seem pretty obvious to why I added them. I will now explain for the Mii.

• The Mii/ Wii series is is Nintendo's third best selling franchise ever, along with the third most selling franchise in general. Only afte rMario and Pokemon.
• Wii Sports is the most selling video game ever.
• Miis are recognizable.
• 'Leaky 3' with Pacman and Little Mac. Plus, the leaker also got Wii Fit Trainer right.
• Dark Lord was a boss or stage hazard.

I hope people don't vote for me because of the Mii. If they do, I guess they don't want to see the roster image I have of Diddy, Dixie, Ganondorf, ROB, Meta Knight, Wolf, Falco, Lucario, Ike, Lucario, Robin, Shulk, and Game and Watch.

Everyone will vote for you because of Mii. Everyone but me of course. I like Mii.

 

[SmasherMaster]

I hope not. But he/she/it is one of the most likely new series characters. I don't support them that much, for one reason. So many celebrities, fictional characters and random things for faces crowding online.

 

[Shorts]

The fine line between uniqueness and out of place in a small roster is key in this game. If you add certain characters too early, you are screwed.

Except when you've already added two females, and are told to add four more it becomes hard to not add "out of place" characters.

 

[Golden Icarus]

Added Ridley, Shulk, Diddy, Pit, and Wario.

 

[Jakor]

Added Wario, Diddy Kong, Ganondorf, King Dedede and Pokémon Trainer.

 

[GreenReaperGod]

Added Bowser, Ganondorf, Diddy Kong, Villager, and King Dedede

 

[Gunla]

All rosters have been added.
Note that the next Elimination will be taking place in 24 hours.
As for Elimination IV, I'm going to note in advance that the update for it will be later than usual due to plans on Friday. I'll arrive back though so the update will occur in the evening.
Be sure to notify competitors!

 

[SmasherMaster]

I just checked the poll. Who voted for me? and why? It would be helpful.
