Today's poll is about the upcoming themed week. It's an idea I had and I was wondering if it would be preferred to the more typical "song of the decade." Rules 1. You may vote up to 4 entries that fit the prompt. 2. No alts. 3. No deleting or editing posts; though, editing posts shortly after you post is fine. 4. If you change your vote, clearly indicate that you are changing a previous vote. Same for adding or subtracting picks. 5. In general, if there are two picks that can be considered the same product (i.e. Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Adventure 2 Battle), I will combine them. 6. If a vote is vague, I will pick the first available choice that best matches the vote (i.e. "Mario" for Wii Games becomes Super Mario Galaxy). 7. I will post the parameters of each Rushmore topic. Other than that, feel free to vote however you like and based on any criteria that best fits the "Mount Rushmore" of that topic. 8. If a vote doesn't fit the topic, it will count as a blank vote. 9. You may nominate as much as you want and have an unlimited amount of seconds for established nominations. 10. Every Sunday, I'll post the schedule for next week. I will pick based on the number of nominations. Any ties will be determined by RNG. Spreadsheet & Nominations https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aatA25pW6OsDn2RlAAGP1_GOGCMNvLLumAKckHOhtFk/edit?gid=1117984190#gid=1117984190 Last Topics Results https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/e/e02895e4.png It's interesting how close all the Rushmore spots were other than RE4. Same with our runner-ups. Last 5 Rushmores Classic Rock Bands: The Beatles / Led Zeppelin / The Rolling Stones / Pink Floyd Video Game Voice Lines: Ace Attorney - Objection / Mortal Kombat - Finish him / Mario - It's-a Me / Star Fox - Do a barrel roll Konami Games: Metal Gear Solid / Castlevania: Symphony of the Night / Contra / Silent Hill 2 Action Movie Stars: Arnold Schwarzenegger/ Jackie Chan / Tom Cruise / Sylvester Stallone Video Games Ending in "4" / "IV": Resident Evil 4 / Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare / Final Fantasy IV / Persona 4 This Week's Rushmores Saturday: Guitar Hero Songs Sunday: GBA Games Next Themed Week: July 7 - July 13 (Songs of the Decade) Today's Parameters You must pick fictional American characters. They must be from non-American entertainment or sources. If a character is defined as American in the localization only but not in the original, they do not count as American. The character must be explicitly American or identify as such. A fake country that is heavily, heavily implied to be based on the United States would count as American. If the character is defined as American at one point in a franchise before changing it (due to legal reasons, oversight, retcons, etc), they would count. Movies and TV shows are considered non-American if the director does not identify as American. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Fictional_American_people_in_video_games https://www.ranker.com/list/american-anime-characters/ranker-anime https://screenrant.com/anime-10-greatest-american-characters/ https://medium.com/mel-magazine/great-movies-about-america-that-werent-made-by-americans-d6210cdb9dca https://britishtelly.wordpress.com/tag/americans-portrayed-on-british-tv/ https://lithub.com/9-great-american-novels-by-authors-born-in-other-countries/ https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Eagleland/AnimeAndManga https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Eagleland/LiveActionTV https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Eagleland/VideoGames --- https://i.imgur.com/9sOWQAf.jpeg ...
