Your Winner + Animal Wars suggestions
 



The mighty and powerful Birdcat soared through the competition with relative ease, undoubtedly earning it's place in history next to the mighty Crabbernaught.

Though some would argue the Birdcat had an easy route, going through the likes of the Spring Heeled Jack, Banshee, Chinese Dragon, and finally the Leviathan, it finished atop the pedestal nonetheless.

Congratulations, Birdcat. You deserve it.




Also: If this is to continue (If you don't like this continuing, say so) I was thinking of going back to Animal Wars, with user submitted contestants, which I will randomize and yadda yadda.

VICTORY!!

Typhoid, if it would have been a tie, which one would you have gone for?

I guess I'll have to read that Leviathan book to easy my sorrow.

Typhoid voted for the birdcat. And Yoda showed up after not posting for a month and voted for the birdcat as well. Something is fishy...and it's not Levy the Leviathan either. He's off moping at the bottom of the sea, drowning his sorrows in whale blubber.

Like I did with one of the major votes last time, I would have taken whichever argument entertained me the most.

Well, BaB voted for the birdcat. . .

Sounds good to me.

I nominate the aye-aye.



Look at the cute widdle baby. Awww.

The sea pig will win

I still dry heave at the sight of a sea cucumber. Worst tasting sea creature I've ever eaten. Somehow I keep finding myself eating one every few years thinking it can't be as bad as I remember. I'm always wrong.

I think we should have a Best Game Ever thing like GameFAQs does every year. We could finally come to a conclusion on GT's favorite game :)

I don't know..I know it would fit the forum..but everyone knows it's going to come down the the typical games. It'll be a Zelda game, or a Mario game, or a Final Fantasy game..or a few others that I can't think of off the top of my head..but you know what I mean. The same thing happened with that music one we had a long time ago. The older music came down to the Beatles and Led Zeppelin..not really a big surprise.

Bube 09-05-2009 08:23 AM

Re: Your Winner
 
We had a music contest? Really? I never remember that!

To be honest, I was thinking the same things when I said that. But still, I think that the real fun in these things is the road to the final, the match-ups in between.

Teuthida 09-05-2009 08:34 AM

Re: Your Winner
 
I don't remember the music contest either.

We could do plants...or fungi...or favorite 15 letter words.

I have never rigged a vote on GT yet... :shifty:

Naw, but won't touch these.

Angrist 09-06-2009 09:53 AM

Re: Your Winner
 
Maybe movie wars?

And I like Danny's plant idea. Much.

Swan 09-06-2009 12:41 PM

Re: Your Winner
 
Maybe a video game villain battle?


Or even just like typical video game bad guy battle.


Like goombas and ghosts and the ever popular rat

Typhoid 09-06-2009 01:00 PM

Re: Your Winner
 
Video Game villian/bad guy wars would be pretty neat.

Start suggesting a list of characters.

It could be called "Evil Wars" or something.

Swan 09-06-2009 11:20 PM

Re: Your Winner
 
Hmm

Sephiroth, Bowser, Ganon, Revolver Ocelot, Vergil(DMC3)

Just a few off the top of my head

BreakABone 09-07-2009 01:15 AM

Re: Your Winner
 
Joker
Wario
Ramirez
The Prophet

Swan 09-07-2009 01:34 AM

Re: Your Winner
 
I wouldn't put Joker on the list seeing as he is primarily a comic villain.



Sure he is in video games but not primarily a video game villain

Angrist 09-07-2009 06:13 AM

Re: Your Winner
 
Starcraft's Kerrigan.
Warcraft III's Arthas.
Zelda's Vaati maybe.

Maybe Combine017 knows something? :p

Teuthida 09-07-2009 06:22 AM

Re: Your Winner
 
GLaDOS
King DeDeDe
Doctor Robotnik

Aw, so no Mr. Big from Michael Jackson's Moonwalker then I guess.

Remember the character battles I used to host years ago?

And then a bunch of people got mad because the Dog from Duck Hunt made it into the semi-finals.

There's no point in making a villain contest anymore. Glados wins.

Yeah, I was about to say that we've already done a lot of these characters before...

Typhoid 09-08-2009 01:11 AM

Re: Your Winner
 
Then we'll stick with animals.
Simple problem, simple solution.
Animals are more entertaining anyways.

Submit contestants now.

Angrist 09-08-2009 06:09 AM

Re: Your Winner
 
Awe come on, go with plants man.

Cactus
Cannabis (though maybe not a fair contestant)
Sequoia (Redwood)
Bonzai
Stickyweed
Liana

So many cool plants.

I used to spend a lot of time reading the entries on this site. Pretty interesting.

But for animals:

Aye-aye


Vampire squid


Goblin shark


Pangolin


Alligator snapping turtle (with optional girl)


Blue tongued skink


Pink fairy armadillo


Blue fairy penguin


Horned lizard (they shoot blood from their eyes)


Basalisk


Kinkajou


Lammergeier (diet of bones)


Hoatzin (claws on its wings)


...most of these I wanted to have for pets growing up.

Porn wars would be fun.

If not and we stick to video game villains....


Fast Headcrab Zombie


Big Daddy


So hot, so badass....


Resident Evil Lurker


From NOLF...the Scottish Baddie, Magnus Armstrong

Re: Your Winner + Animal Wars suggestions
 
If we're doing animals:


You wouldn't include it in monster wars. :(

Typhoid 09-10-2009 06:52 AM

Re: Your Winner + Animal Wars suggestions
 
A dinosaur is technically an animal, so yes.

Teuthida 09-10-2009 07:27 AM

Re: Your Winner + Animal Wars suggestions
 
Ooh, if we can do extinct animals then...

Indricotherium (the largest land mammal ever)

Typhoid 09-10-2009 07:28 AM

Re: Your Winner + Animal Wars suggestions
 
See, I think nothing extinct should be included, then it'll be a slippery slope of wave after wave of dead animals. And nobody likes that.

Er hmm...

A Wallaroo


Asian Cobra

The portia spider.

It hunts other spiders and uses a different style of hunting for each meal that is crafted based on each and every prey

So let's do an Extinct Wars. We've already done animals before...

But I can see where this is going ;), so I'll nominate the dolphin.

Bonsai is a method of growing trees, not an individual species of tree. You can pretty much 'bonsai' any tree, I am growing a Bonsai Giant Sequoia now as it happens ;)

:lol: I always knew it as a Wallabie or Wallaby - Never heard it called a Walleroo before.


So anyway, are we decided? Are we having an Animal Wars? Or are we having a 'decide what wars to have wars'

Here are my choices -


Golden Ringed Dragonfly (This is my number 1 if all the others are not considered, that is why I have been species particular rather than just saying dragonfly)


Gecko


Stick Insect (I used to have some of this species as pets, this one is the female)


Golden Eagle


Poison Dart Frog
