Unless regional forms push the count around just right, Lechonk is up against starters.I looked ahead for you in the document I have prepared and Lechonk's round is going to be Floragato --> Oinkologne. So yeah, basically up against all starters. EDIT: Correction. Meowscarada through Tarountula. Hambo posted... Is Tauros gonna have two spots in the contest or four? It has a Paldean form but also two additional "breeds" for that form that I guess have their own dex entries?Two. I'm counting all three versions of Paldean Tauros as one entry. |

TMOG 05/02/24 6:41:19 PM #1 | Here's how this one is going to work. It's still going to be 128 Pokemon in the final bracket, but obviously with 1025 Pokedex entries, that's going to be a tight fit. So we're going to whittle that number down bit by bit, choosing one Pokemon out of each group of 10 to make it. The groups will be sorted in Pokedex order; this is to help keep things orderly and prevent a Pokemon from slipping through the cracks, but also to make sure that each generation is represented proportionally with how many of the little bastards were added in each set of games. For Pokemon with alternate forms under the same Pokedex entry, such as Unown, Rotom, Wormadam, or Deoxys, all of those forms will be counted as one entry for the sake of keeping the proportional representation intact (and to make sure there aren't too many of a single species on the bracket). Megas, Gigantamax, and any other alternate forms that are only seen during battle are also considered as part of the base species. Regional forms, such as Alolan Exeggutor or Galarian Weezing, are considered as being separate, and will be part of their respective generation's set. Legends: Arceus is considered as "generation 8.5" for the purposes of this tournament. That brings things to a grand total of 1080 Pokemon that qualify for bracket spots, which will break down to a nice even 108. The final twenty bracket spots are "Wild Card" positions, and each generation will have two more chances to get a representative on the bracket. The top 20 non-winners from each generation will be split into two further groups of ten, and those Pokemon will then compete for the remaining spots. I know it might seem confusing when it's all written out like this, but trust me, it will work. I hope. But, as I mentioned in the opening of this topic, these are dark times and the future is uncertain. I'm going to do my damndest to keep up on this so we all have something to look forward to, but I'm going to need everybody here to help out with that by voting. When I ran a temperature check the topic got up to about 50-60 votes, which I felt was fine, but since CE's numbers are only going to dwindle moving forward I will end this tournament early if I feel like the engagement isn't high enough for me to bother putting the time and effort into it anymore. So, please, vote. Anyway, with that out of the way, here's round seven of the preliminaries! Here's to a (hopefully) great fourth tournament, everyone! https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/7/7b79076a.jpg PREVIOUS WINNERS Round 1: Charizard (25.64%) Round 2: Pidgeot (28.36%) Round 3: Sandslash (25.71%) Round 4: Nidoking (30.99%) Round 5: Diglett (19.7%) Round 6: Arcanine (50%) GEN 1 WILD CARD NOMINEES (20/20) Ninetales - 28.17%, 20 votes Butterfree - 23.88%, 16 votes Blastoise - 21.79%, 17 votes Pikachu - 21.43%, 15 votes Beedrill - 20.9%, 14 votes Vileplume - 16.67%, 11 votes Venomoth - 16.67%, 11 votes Meowth - 14.29%, 8 votes Raichu - 12.86%, 9 votes Vulpix - 12.68%, 9 votes Bulbasaur - 11.54%, 9 votes Jigglypuff - 11.27%, 8 votes Primeape - 10.71%, 6 votes Zubat - 10.61%, 7 votes Oddish - 10.61%, 7 votes Parasect - 10.61%, 7 votes Golbat - 9.09%, 6 votes Charmander - 8.97%, 7 votes Caterpie - 8.97%, 7 votes Pidgeotto - 8.96%, 6 votes In the event that more than 20 Pokemon are in the Wild Card category at the end of a generation, I'll use a randomizer to decide which Pokemon tied for the lowest qualifying score make it onto the polls. |

Topic | Do you ever stop and think about the trees in the Simpsons' backyard? |
TMOG 05/01/24 2:04:10 PM #1 | More specifically, that when you consider all the different places Homer has been shown on his hammock in that backyard, they basically have a forest back there. He's been shown hammocking it up along the side fence so he can bother/be bothered by Ned, along the back fence, and closer to the back of the house so Marge can yell at him from the kitchen window. So that's at least six trees, but then you think about the large one for the treehouse and Lisa's peach tree, and that's eight. (Seven if we assume that for the last hammock position, it's tied to the treehouse tree) And yet it's only ever consistently portrayed as having the one large tree that the treehouse is built in. How much money is Homer wasting on tree installation and removal? |

I'm surprised they decided to recast Jimmy Pesto, rather than writing him out of the show by having him get arrested for the exact same reason as his voice actor. He strikes me as the kind of asshole who would have taken part in the MAGAs' terrorist attack on the Capitol, had he been real.I don't think this would work because Bob's Burgers has always felt like a legitimately apolitical show and doesn't (or at least very, very rarely) use current events like that for plotlines. They could have had him arrested for similar vandalism but not for the Capitol attack. |
