Welcome back Kas! Fine. I shall not kill Kas. Also no one kill Wyrm or Wilson. I claim their deaths in the name of vengeance.
-
If they were to team up they would likely just roll over the rest making the competition pointless. I vote for Miles. Even with all of Kelsier's abilities he wouldn't be able to take down Miles. Miles has his guns but is also one of the best knife fighters of his time so long range or hand to hand Miles has the advantage thanks to his healing. Eventually Kelsier's metals will run out allowing Miles to win.

Marsh. Easy. I don't think it really needs to be explained.
-
Kaladin. Sure Megan has her gun and illusion/<Redacted> skills but I don't see them making enough of a difference against a Windrunner who can heal anything short of a fatal wound.
-
No, you're not the only one. I did it not long after the thread opened. I was hoping there was a special secret that would give the first to decode it a prize. I'm not going to say whether or not Gamma rewarded/punished me. Jak is signing up.

When you have a hammer in your hand everything around you starts looking like a nail.

Syl. Adolin would likely surrender once he found out who his opponent is.
-
Dilaf. His training and extra strength/bones should allow him to win fairly easily. Especially as Vasher doesn't have Nightblood. After all Nightblood is a contestant and that would make it a handicap match. A normal sword would glance off Dilaf's reinforced body so Vashers main trick also wouldn't work. Best hope Vasher has is to immobilize Dilaf but that is a long shot at best.
-
I vote for Obliteration. Firstly because I really like him. But mostly because, as has been explained before, Obliteration can just melt Rasheks metalminds and kill him that way.
-
If the Prof knew Nightblood was a threat then he could just use a forcefield to squash it into a ball. However I don't think he will see it. Rather Prof will see a tool and pick it up afterwards Nightblood will impale itself into his chest. Profs healing would likely keep him alive but would be unable to remove it so I'm going for a draw. No vote from me this round.

Alcatraz has already tried and failed to break gravity so Szeth should be fine with lashings. I'm going to assume Szeth has his Blade that he started with While Alcatraz could break the Shardblade I doubt it will have any effect on Lashings. Alcatraz's abilities kick in automatically when he's in danger so while it will destroy a gun, it will only do so when the trigger is pulled. Alcatraz isn't mean enough to break someones bones on purpose so I think Szeth will lash him into the sky. Szeth has my vote.

It's a bit of both really. After all I doubt Human would win a popularity contest vs The Lopen. I for one look at this as a combat contest and try to judge who will win based on skill and abilities rather than who I like more. I'm with you there. I've been putting my votes in red by default and having to go back and change them. Vin has my vote. Returned can be killed just like normal people (see: Blushweaver) while Mistborn can Pewterdrag to ignore most crippling wounds. While Susebron can Awaken his clothing to protect him I'm not sure they would have much luck against flying discs of metal. I think it will be another close fight but Vin will win in my opinion.

Hmm. four posts that say the same thing by the same member all within a couple of minutes. Who thinks Chaos should be reported as a spammer? Chaos gonna be upset with me now.

They wouldn't get the dead doc if there was a chance of becoming a puppet master. Way too much of a chance that the information will change their actions. I disagree with you here. They have already lost a vote and voice in the main thread as well as PMs so letting them plot and plan in doc should be allowed otherwise all they would have is what can be gained with the puppets role. Maybe have it so that the village Puppeteer can have one PM open with another player of their choice so they can have their voice heard as well.

On one hand Hoid can't be killed. But on the other, he can't harm others. We also don't know the full extent of his abilities. So I think it will be a long drawn out fight with Wax as ultimate winner. While Hoid can avoid the bullets and bits of metal flying around, I suspect Wax will have victory after using his stored weight and pinning Hoid. So my vote is for Wax but barely.
-
TenSoon and Harmony didn't make the cut. As the one to nominate Human for the contest I am obligated to vote for him. Also: Seconded.
-
It's been 24 hours since my last nomination so I guess I'm allowed to go again. Human the Koloss x1 TenSoon x1 Harmony x1 Odium x1 Miles 'Hundredlives' Dagouter x1 I beleive that brings us up to 32 unique contestants.
-
Seeing as Hoid can't harm anyone I don't think he would do well in the contest. Unless he drives them mad or something.

Heh. I had a similar idea and talked to Meta about it. Puppet Master: Should a player go inactive then you can send in orders for them. This role will be given out as needed during the game. It can be an eliminator calling the shots for another eliminator or a villager taking over for another villager. You are not allowed to reveal that you are a puppet master nor can you vote/post for the player you have replaced. Should your main character die but your puppet lives you cannot post at all in thread or PMs except to send in orders. In this case the results will be posted either in Write up for Village or Doc for Eliminators. Metas response: In my experience, inactivity is just something that's kind of a given. There are some people that just won't play unless they have some Uber-Crazy-Fanciful role or if they're not an Eliminator. Trying to stop inactivity is kind of like offering granola to a child that is expecting candy; they're going to throw it in your face, no matter how much you try to tell them the benefits. As you've experienced, even being an Eliminator isn't enough to draw some people out of hiding. It's just not something that can be forced. That's what makes the Puppet Master awesome, yet frightening. It gives either team (I'm really not sold on the "as needed" part, BTW.) the chance to gain the abilities of an inactive teammate back. My worry is that is also could encourage people to, like the pitch hitter idea, not participate because they have something to fall back on. Overall, the idea is sound. You've covered all the possible angles with it other than the "as needed" angle, as I fear that bit might cause people to think that the GM is taking a partial viewpoint to a given game rather than trying to be as impartial as possible. I just think that it will give people even more of an excuse to not check in.

I know the voices in my head aren't real..... but sometimes their ideas are just absolutely awesome!

Most of the time... when you're crying, nobody notices your tears. Most of the time... when you're worried, nobody feels your pain. Most of the time... when you're happy, nobody sees your smile. But when you fart just one time...

There are several here with Masters, from a wide range of fields. One of the great things about Brandon's books is that it appeals to a wide range of people from all walks of life.
