Now that the preliminaries are over and this won't be showing any bias, I just want to say that I've began reading Vixen NYC after seeing how cute that iteration's Karen was and I've been enjoying it so far! I'm not usually a big superhero fan, but I have tended towards DC in the past, so I have seen a little bit of Karen's things in other series. I'd generally say she's one of my higher placed DC heroes? I really like how snarky Vixen NYC's Karen can be, she's got the kind of bite I love from an SGG!

Harlivy, Lena, Barbara, and Felicity will be entering the bracket proper! After receiving a few suggestions, Barbara will be taken from her DC Super Hero Girls (2019) iteration, while Harlivy will be taken from their Harley Quinn (2019) iteration!
SGGShowdown PRELIMINARY: DC (+ additional questions/specifications!)
Abigail "Abby" Arcane | Swamp Thing (2019 Television Series) VS Felicity Smoak | Arrow (2012 Television Series) VS Lena Luthor | Supergirl (2015 Television Series) VS Barbara Gordon/Batgirl | Unspecified VS Karen Beecher/Bumblebee | Unspecified VS Natasha Irons/Steel | Unspecified VS Harlivy/Harley Quinn + Poison Ivy/Harleen Quinzel + Pamela Isley | Unspecified
Finally started working on the bracket, but realized that there's quite a few characters from the DC extended universe! Due to the nature of this fandom, I feel as though it'd be fair to fudge the numbers a bit for the fandom cap, so I'll be allowing four participants from DC into the bracket! Even with the increased cap, there's still a couple excess girls! While I could take the easy out and axe the girls who didn't have any sort of iteration specified, I feel as though that'd be rather unfair, so! It's preliminary time!
I condensed Harlivy into a pair due to the number of submissions I received for them, both individually and as a couple! Though there wasn't ever a consensus on which continuity to take them from. Since I would like to focus on a singular iteration of an SGG, I'd like to request those more familiar with these characters to suggest an iteration to take Batgirl, Bumblebee, Steel, and Harlivy from in the replies or in my askbox!

take your time! poll running is a lot of work, but it's supposed to be fun, so don't worry about us too much :D
I appreciate it! I've just been struggling a bit with some IRL circumstances, so things have gotten a bit messy! Nothing too bad, it's just been mucking with my head a bit! Crossing my fingers that things start clearing up soon so the rest of the bracket can be held without issue!

hello and welcome to the ~meganelympics~!
inspired by an old twitter tournament of the same name, its time for your favourite glasses characters to compete to become the best glasser! submissions will close on august 5th, so be sure to get your submissions in!
submit here!
rules/info under the cut!
so, let's look at the submission rules!
no real people! this includes mcyt and vtubers.
no sunglasses! im so sorry dave strider johnny bravo. maybe I will do a sunglasses poll eventually. and also perhaps goggles. but for the time being they are not allowed.
makoto yuuki is banned. if you would like to know why. its because he's my favourite megane and i would be very sad if he lost i hope u can understand. he is our mascot and i think that means he is the ultimate megane actually. (other enstars are totally cool though.)
the character does not have to always wear glasses, but it can't be a one-off thing.
no h*rry p*tter. or s*uth p*rk (i don't know if there are glasses characters there but im saying this just in case).
i will be trying to cap participants per fandom at 2 or 3 per fandom, depending on how submissions go!
bracket/other information:
brackets will be weekly! there may be some time between polls (new ones won't be immediately after the polls end). unfortunately i have life and responsibilities outside of being glasses character fan number one. this fact is disappointing to me as well.
please be respectful 🙏 i understand people are very passionate during these polls but please please try to be civil!!! fans of your opponent are people too!!!!!! thank you. also, sending hate messages to individual voters over their votes is extra banned.
propaganda is encouraged! i do not catch everything, though, so please feel free to let me know if I missed your reblog! i promise its nothing against you or the character you support. i just miss things.
asks are open send whatever but any character/source hate or discourse will be deleted.
hi sorry tagging to get the word out lol

Would once again like to apologize for the delay! Life has been really hectic for the past couple of days, but I'm trying my damnedest to get this out for y'all! Once four SGGs have been chosen from the DC preliminary and Marvel preliminary I'll be trying to get the bracket up by the 28th! Currently the plan is for the first half of polls for Round 1 to go up on August 1st, so take that time to prepare all the propaganda and voters you can!

Hey so unfortunately I was having a bit of a Real Life moment the past couple days so I haven't really been able to work on poll things, I deeply apologize! I don't know if I'll be able to work on poll things tomorrow since I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up having to take care of some stuff all day, but I'll try my best to get the bracket announced by the 25th! I've looked through all the submissions and I believe I won't actually need to do any preliminaries, so I should hopefully be able to post the bracket without worrying about any of that! Just in case I'm mistaken and preliminaries do have to be held, the bracket will be postponed until the 26th so preliminaries can be held on the 25th!

Submissions are officially closed! I'll spend the next couple days sorting through them (and throwing up preliminaries for certain SGGs), so please look forward to the main event!

Debating whether I want to take a nap before I close submissions and just pray my alarm works or if I want to force myself to stay up until midnight so I can close submissions on time... Truly the tragedy of our modern era...

So uh while the site explodes due to Tumblr desperately trying to draw in more people that fled to Twitter once the porn ban happened, I'd like to remind everyone that the deadline for Science Genius Girl submissions has been adjusted to tomorrow due to the influx of submissions! If you'd like to see your SGG compete, please submit them to this form by midnight CST tomorrow night!
Also, since I've had a couple people confused about this, SGGs are solely meant to be submitted through the form! Thankfully, all the SGGs that have been sent in as asks instead have been submitted by someone else in the form itself, but please don't send submissions into my askbox! It'd make my life a whole lot easier for all the SGGs to be i the same place, plus there's some extra things I'd like to know that are only mentioned in the form itself.
#SGGShowdown Speaks#SGGShowdown Announcements#Mod primarily uses desktop Tumblr so.#This new layout update is great. Very good. This definitely is not sarcasm. A SGG enjoyer? Being sarcastic? That's unheard of.

IS THE FFXIV CHARACTER ATHENA. I HAVE LIMBUS COMPANY INSATLLED ON MY COMPUTER BUT DIDNT PLAY MUCH. are there more women like her out there...
Yes it is! I have barely played FFXIV myself due to struggling with big sprawling MMOs like that, but the way Athena was described instantly made me think of a Limbus Company character that gets introduced around the end of the first chapter in the story. Just figured I should mention that <3 For no reason in particular <3 I'm definitely not sending subliminal messages through your computer screen <3
#SGGShowdown Speaks#SGGShowdown Off Topic#SGG enjoyers check out Project Moon if you like morally gray SGGs there's quite a few over there <3#And for the men enjoyers among you there's also quite a few of those <3
