Super Mario Bracket: FINAL ROUND

"You're about to have a really terrible experience!"

Vivian

SEED: 1 (215 nominations)

PREVIOUS OPPONENT: Daisy

SPECIES: Shadow

DEBUT: The Thousand-Year Door

BIO: Vivian is one of the main characters of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door for the GameCube and its 2024 remake for the Switch. while she is introduced as an antagonist along with her sisters, she later joins Mario, at a time when all of Mario's friends have abandoned him.

Vivian's arc is one of the most memorable parts of one of the most critically acclaimed games in the greater Super Mario franchise. the 2024 remake of The Thousand-Year Door was specifically praised by critics and fans alike for making Vivian's transgender identity textually explicit in the English-language release, which had been censored in the original 2004 localization.

in the Super Mario Bracket, Vivian has consistently been one of the strongest competitors, from before the bracket even began. in the preliminaries, she received over twice as many nominations as the second most nominated character, Luigi. she has yet to finish a match with anything less than 70% of the vote, as can be seen in her previous matches against Dribble & Spitz, Goomba, Kamek, Count Bleck, Big Bertha, and Daisy.

"I'm The Old Psychic Lady with the Evil Eye Who Reads Fortunes and Knows Everything Before It Happens."

The Old Psychic Lady with the Evil Eye Who Reads Fortunes and Knows Everything Before It Happens

SEED: 38 (17 nominations)

PREVIOUS OPPONENT: Luigi

SPECIES: Human

DEBUT: The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!

BIO: The Old Psychic Lady with the Evil Eye Who Reads Fortunes and Knows Everything Before It Happens is a character from the live-action segment "The Great Hereafter" from The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!. she is a spirit medium who brings Mario and Luigi into contact with the ghost of their deceased grandmother.

The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! is, among English-speaking Mario fans, one of the most well-known of the Super Mario franchise's non-video game works. its live action half-episodes were either paired with animated Super Show! episodes, or (as is the case for "The Great Hereafter") with episodes of the Legend of Zelda animated series.

The Old Psychic Lady with the Evil Eye Who Reads Fortunes and Knows Everything Before It Happens is introduced after Mario suggests to Luigi that they should talk to "the old lady with the evil eye that she could tell fortunes and she could tell things before they happen", just before the woman in question rings the doorbell and says her full title out loud.

in the Super Mario Bracket, The Old Psychic Lady with the Evil Eye Who Reads Fortunes and Knows Everything Before It Happens has gained a notable dedicated following, winning new fans over almost entirely from her name alone. her pure appeal has led her to win against Ms. Mowz, Funky Kong, Yoshi, Elvira, Rosalina, and Luigi: a remarkable achievement.

Unimportant Sonic Characters [Side A, Round 3]

Which unimportant character is your favorite of the two?

Propaganda for Ian JR: Plz he's so funny. also he IS officially recognized. He's in an IDW sonic comic book AND the footage in the sonic symphony.

Propaganda for Conductor's Wife: Look at her / Girl did literally nothing in the entire game; the absolute definition of a background character

Jumping on the bandwagon with something niche: Can you name all German states? Here is the quiz

[scottsmajorshipbracket]

Copper Husbands' prize for winning has arrived! :D

Tumblr Version: https://www.tumblr.com/deityoftherain/768068471856742400/llama-drama-copper-husbands-post-esmp2-oneshot

AO3 Version: https://archiveofourown.org/works/60819016

Reminder that @deityoftherain will write a fic for the winning ship! Have fun propagandaing!

Update: Copper Husbands won, so vote here on what you (yes, you) are wanting for your (the bracket's) prize! [now closed]

Update 2: The form above is now closed! Thank you for letting me know, and I will use that knowledge to craft a fic together. Keep reading if you want more information on that.

We had 25 people who voted on what they wanted to see, so the following is what I'll be using to brainstorm with and write: Empires S2, Fluff and/or Hurt/Comfort (tied), established relationship, and canon universe/setting. People also wanted to see (1) them being cute and silly (2) details on their relationship showing how much they care and know each other (3) teasing and maybe jealousy (4) physical affection, specifically kissing and hugging/cuddling (5) incorporating the copper wire flower Owen made Scott as a reference to rats smp (6) llama Owen, which I'm considering having him be a llama shifter or hybrid or something like that (plus some others that only work if a different smp got chosen)

Update 3:

[hotvintagepoll]

Congrats to the ultimate winner of the Hot & Vintage Movie Men Tournament, Mr. Toshiro Mifune! May he live happily and well where the sun always shines, enjoying the glories of a battle hard fought.

A loving farewell to all of our previous contestants, who are now banished to the shadow realm and all its dark joys and whispered horrors—I hear there's a picnic on the village green today. If you want to remember the fallen heroes, you can find them all beneath the cut.

What happens next? I'll be taking a break of two weeks to rest from this and prep for the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament. I'll still be around but only minimally, posting a few last odes to the hot men before transitioning into a little early ladies content, just like I did with this last tournament. The submission form for the Hot & Vintage Ladies tournament will remain up for one more week (closing February 21st), so get your submissions in for that asap! Once the form closes, there will be one more week of break. The first round of the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament will be posted on February 29th, as Leap Year Day seems like a fitting allusion to leaping into these ladies' arms.

Thanks for being here! Enjoy the two weeks off, and send me some great propaganda.

Shopkeepers Tournament Bracket(s)!

this round features many more characters (80!!) compared to last round (32) so graphics are taking a little longer to make than expected! apologies for the wait! round 1 should begin within the week!

[mfshipbracket]

[ultimate-blorbo-bracket]

Round 3 Wave 1

[sexiest-objects-tournament]

Please share propaganda in the notes!

EDIT since this has breached containment! Some info on the poll as whole!

1- I'm sorry to put two bad bitches against each other. The bracket setup was randomly selected, not seeded to have equal match-ups. BUT there will be a revival round! 2- Image descriptions are in the ALT text. 3- As always, there is a real human person running these, so keep negative propaganda to a minimum in the notes. Talk up your faves as much as you want, but don't shit-talk the other option.

Thanks!
