    Little bit on how this will work once the other various contests are finished up:


    56 hand-picked contestants by MOI ;)

    They will all do battle in Round 1.

    That will put 28 clean through to Round 2.

    3 second chance battle royales ala LeVar's fantastic idea. All characters get split into three groups randomly and face off against each other, people vote in order of preference to see one from each grouping progress.


    The final battle is nominations. If there is a character you want included that has been previously omitted from the show.... OR THE BOOKS feel free to include it. The battle royale will be run in the exact same fashion as the second chance matches. (Mainly because I've noticed the scores are low as everyone plumps for their own naturally).

    Please don't send your noms until I open them, they may already be included.

    Loved the books, but it's been a while since I read them. Only saw the first season of the TV show. This should be ... interesting.

    Tyrion or The Hound from the main cast.

    Lyanna Mormont for the supporting cast, she was badass.

    Necro realises he overlooked Tyrion* and rushes to cut a lesser character from the list

    Kicking off with the first match at circa 11am folks. Draw is done and there are some intriguing matches even in Round 1 imo anyways.

    It will be first to 6 votes (with valid reasoning) for Round 1, or most votes after 45 mins. Reasons don't have to be in depth or anything. If you like how their hair catches the light on a bright summers morning, or even that you simply prefer them, they're all valid.

    Anti-XYZ votes are also actively encouraged:P

    In the event of a tie after the time period of 45 mins expires, I will cast the deciding vote.

    Round 1


    First to six votes, or most votes after 45 minutes advances to Round 2

    Match 1:

    It's a Royal Showdown in an epic opening battle bound to upset some folk. Can Sansa FINALLY get one over her tormentor in Cersei or is history bound to repeat itself?

    Cersei Lannister

    VS



    Sansa Stark

    Sansa because she's the best and I'm going to use my Sextuple Jeopardy (which Necro said only I get) and immediately advance Sansa to Round 2

    That’s a big match to start with. Two very strong characters but I do love a bit of evil, most of the best characters were complete bastards. So my vote goes to Cersei Lannister.

    Fůck me that's some start! Shame!!!

    Sansa for me, she has a great character ark, got tired of Cersie and was just hoping she would be killed off every episode.

    Both fantastic characters with a lot of development over the seasons but Sansa is my pick. She went from "little bird" to queenly falcon! :D

    Cersei. Great character. Sansa may have made the transition from meek to war queen, but she managed to do it all in an exceedingly dull way.

    And at the very last minute, a vote from Irish Aris sends Cersei Lannister into round two in a tough opening match.

    4-3 the score there.
