Tourney of Random Events 2017- Noms?
« on: May 05, 2017, 07:15:45 PM »
So it's been a couple years or so since we had one of these.  Don't really have many ideas ahead of time for events, but hey, never stopped me before.

I'll be hand picking based on my own assumptions of general vote draw and the like, so we'll open it up for 10 noms a piece if you're so inclined.  As usual, please restrict noms to fictional characters, although fictionalized characters are kosher.  For example, no to William Shatner, but yes to William Shatner in those travel commercials.

Nom topic for a non-launched 2016 tourney (with apologies to Excal), for the lazy: http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=6779.0
CK: She is the female you
Snow: Speaking of Sluts!

<NotMiki> I mean, we're talking life vs. liberty, with the pursuit of happiness providing color commentary.

This tournament of randomness will probably be unusually difficult, so only the most competent characters should be nominated.  (Well, at least the first ~5 or so.)

Cersei Lannister (ASoIaF)
Fry (Futurama)
Cervantes (FE Awakening)
Hammer (Xenogears)
Like-Like (Zelda series)
Sokka (Avatar TLA)
Captain Nemo (literature)
Armie Buff (Phoenix Wright)
Malcolm Reynolds (Firefly)
Kerrigan, space super-girlfriend (StarCraft, but specifically SC2 expansions if voters know 'em)

EDIT: Armie Buff for Trucy in the PW characters category.

Well, given those nom criteria and rules/restrictions, here's an appropriate list:

Donald Trump (as played by Alec Baldwin)
Donald Trump (as played by Anthony Atamanuik)
Mike Pence (as played by Peter Grosz)
Bernie Sanders (as played by James Adomian)
Vladimir Putin (as played by Beck Bennett)
Sean Spicer (as played by Melissa McCarthy)
Hillary Clinton (as played by Kate McKinnon)
Kelly Anne Conway (as played by Kate McKinnon)
Ivanka Trump (as played by Scarlett Johansson)
Paul Ryan (as played by Taran Killam)

The hard part was deciding between Jeff Sessions (also played by Kate McKinnon) or Hillary Clinton.  Went with Clinton, but might switch to Sessions.
