If you need an explaination, check this (http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=72.0) link. You can also ask questions in this topic.
Pools close at Saturday at 10pm EST, next week. You can nominate three characters per game, but only two characters per division. You have to have between four and six characters per pool, and all four divisions must be the same size. (Heavy, Godlike, and Middle can't have six people while Light has four, etc). There are no limits on the number of nomination pools, so take your time, check to see what looks interesting, and have fun. Anyone from season 43and before is available to be nominated this season. Reaons are not needed to submit a pool, we just do that for fun.
Not actually an Admin pro-tip: this (http://www.rpgdl.com/rankings.php?season=%3C=44&mode=char_namerank&order=ASC) link should link to all characters eligible for nomination this season. Check this (http://www.rpgdl.com/nomcheck.php) as well. It's Hal's nomchecker and it kicks ass.

4. Neat healers.
5. Neat equip breaker.
6. Fodder.
1. Solid status slinging PC.
2. Bowman's always fun.

5. Is a good Middle in spite of being Grobyc.
6. Awesome, deserves another match or three.
1. Needs to match her sister's (NR) success!
2. Is Tink, thus wins.
3. Old favorite who only had one fight against someone who champed. (Sophia) Worth a shot to see if he can have some success.

csh, you're going to need to make Middle and Light pools(and have the same number of characters in all four pools) if you want your noms to count. It would be a mighty shame if Cloud or Sephiroth missed out because you forgot the nomination rules!

1. Tranny hype, for the Dhyers.

Soren (FE9)

Agree that an Arietta - Chidori duel sounds fun, despite not having played P3. Also Malak wins the award for like never getting in despite being nommed 12 seasons straight or thereabouts from me.

Emily was in this season, Snowfire. She lost to Empyrea.
