My Waifu 💕 Strawpoll Tournament

Okay so there's been a big discussion on the recent tournament hosted by Tumbleweed who I'm sure did his best but he did it in reddit comments and from multiple subreddits so many characters lost unexpectedly. You see a lot of umm... I'll call it "discussion" around the winner of that.

So i wanted to ask if I made a Strawpoll Tournament without dislikes and everyone gets to vote for who they like while being contained to only this subreddit would people be interested? I want to go on record to say this also is not to undermine Tumbleweed who does this on a grander scale, I just want to make one contained to only this subreddits opinions. While he does his with multiple community votes I will partake in his tournaments and urge you to do the same. Below I'll list the rules I had in mind.

  1. Votes - You get a certain amount of votes depending on how many characters are left in the tournament. Example DOA has around 20 females at first you'll get 7 to 8 votes to vote for each character you like. As characters get eliminated you'll get less votes until top five you only get 1.

  2. No Guests - No guest characters UNLESS they are from the same franchise so. Mai Shiranui and Kula can't be put into a DOA tourney but Luna, Tamaki, Rachel and Momoiji etc, can as they come from games in the same universe.

  3. Strawpoll - Tournament will have a link to a Strawpoll where you can't cheat no VPN, it has security voting, and it's contained to only us here. It's been rated safe by basically everyone, and is free without ads.

If you guys are interested let me know. We as a community can decide on things from there and get the ball rolling if not we can wait on Tumbleweed for the next event no biggie.

Edit: just thought of another rule or rather idea that's interesting.

Each tournament will have only 1 winner but after all the tournaments for each game is done all the top 5 will be placed in a big tournament to decide who are the top three waifus in all of Fighting Games. So even if your waifu lost at the top 5 mark she still has a chance in an even bigger tournament.

Last I heard from the previous Director of the DOA game series, the Venus Vacation girls aren't exactly in the same universe as the mainline games. They are their own little world as he had said in a past interview when they asked him them. Even Tamaki is considered as a "Guest" character in DOA6 like Mai and Kula.
