My poor Mikura is shaping up to lose her third match in a row, at least the last one wasn't a total runaway, and their is still a chance in this one. I really thought she would do better then she has, am I so out of touch? /images/graemlins/stunned0.gif

NO! It's the children's fault... /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif

I'm surprised the Casca/Faye contest is going the way it is so far. I know it's early but oof, some interesting contests so far.

[/ QUOTE ]she seems to be doing better than my Haruka, but she is going against Utena. Hard to beat a Bisexual Tomboy.

[something]

Motoko Aoyama, Love Hina vs. Ryuunosuke Fujinami, Urusei Yatsura - Seen neither, pass.

Ed - Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivursky IV, Cowboy Bebop vs. Madoka Ayukawa, Kimagure Orange Road - Don't like Ed, haven't seen KOR, pass.

Anita King, Read or Die TV vs. Meryl Strife, Trigun - Don't care about Meryl either way, haven't seen ROD, pass.

Casca, Berserk vs. Faye Valentine, Cowboy Bebop - Hrm... Like Faye a bit more but went with Caska.

Haruka Shitou, Rahxephon vs. Utena Tenjou, Revolutionary Girl Utena - Ah man, I can't in good conscience vote against Utena on this, but I also can't vote for her when I haven't seen RGU and I have seen Rahxephon... pass.

Kino, Kino's Journey vs. Riza Hawkeye, Fullmetal Alchemist - Kino owns this round so, so hard.

Mikura Suzuki, Mezzo Forte/DSA vs. Anna Heart, Kaleido Star - Pass.

Niea, Niea_7 vs. Mikoto Minagi, My~HiME - You know, I don't much like Mikoto but she fits very well.

Not much to vote on here...

[kamillebidan]

Aggh...

I just don't see how anyone could consider Faye a tomboy. I like her, too, but currently she's beating Casca! Unbelievable!

Ugh.

It looks like Ed's having trouble with her matchup too...

[Spirit Of The Stage]

*******Motoko Aoyama, Love Hina*******
-----VS-----
*******Ryuunosuke Fujinami, Urusei Yatsura*******

I've voted for Ryuunosuke twice, I'm doing it again. Motoko changes too much for me to put her as a victory for tomboy whilst Ryuu-chan is one of the best examples ever (and she's lost twice already...that sucks.)

*******Ed - Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivursky IV, Cowboy Bebop*******
-----VS-----
*******Madoka Ayukawa, Kimagure Orange Road*******

Ed this time, Madoka actually fits well as a tomboy but she's a much better mature character - Ed is just a lunatic who even the crew can't tell she's a girl...hell, her own father can't!!!

*******Anita King, Read or Die TV*******
-----VS-----
*******Meryl Strife, Trigun*******

I've said it twice so...once more. ANITA-CHAN! Damn I love that chibiko...

*******Casca, Berserk*******
-----VS-----
*******Faye Valentine, Cowboy Bebop*******

Casca easily. Faye is awesome, but like with Madoka, she would have been a better choice if mature came up...

*******Haruka Shitou, Rahxephon*******
-----VS-----
*******Utena Tenjou, Revolutionary Girl Utena*******

Utena - one of the easiest picks in this round for me.

*******Kino, Kino's Journey*******
-----VS-----
*******Riza Hawkeye, Fullmetal Alchemist*******

Kino - my pick. Always concerned thought against a FMA character (circa Onizuka vs. Roy Mustang BOS Tournament where Onizuka won by one vote...in ecchi. Yeah, work that out...)

*******Mikura Suzuki, Mezzo Forte/DSA*******
-----VS-----
*******Anna Heart, Kaleido Star*******

I think with my name this ones a no-brainer. Go for it clown girl Anna!

*******Niea, Niea_7*******
-----VS-----
*******Mikoto Minagi, Mai-Hime*******

No qualms about this Mai-Hime character compared to the other two, Mikoto fits the category like a glove.

To be honest, I'm quite surprised this match-up isn't closer than it is for the same reason...I mean, I fully expect Kino to win, but I thought that Riza would give her a run for her money at least.

[kamillebidan]

Excellent. Casca is back on top (though just barely). Looks like she could still go undefeated after all...

[Lumberjack]

It just occured to me that in the first round Riza beat Utena, in the second round Haruka beat Riza, and now in the third round Utena is beating Haruka.

The song "Strange Things" from Toy Story now comes to mind.

[Lumberjack]

This pool seems to be a little more popular than the other ones. There are already 92 votes in the Ed vs Madoka match-up.

[Shsway]

Not able to help Utena-kun with a vote in this round (as I haven't seen enough Rah), but I'm pleased that she's got a comfortable lead, along with Kino.

[XenoCrisis0153]

damn, I hate those red bars... they tell you nothing (except who's winning in each race). When you actually read the numbers, you can see that this is actually a tight face amoung all the leaders. All the winners are between 52 and 58%

[ape2020]

Time is almost up for 12 of the girls in the Tomboy pool and there are still some close and meaniful contests. Anyone one left go and vote!

Well, it seems it will be Casca, Kino, Ed and anita.
Utena and Haruka tie up with 2 win and 1 lost. Matoko is undefeated but loses by points

After the second round it seemed like those four would be the ones... I'm just happy Mikura won a match! /images/graemlins/catgirl0.gif

I'm really suprised that Anna lost. In terms of actual tomboyness, shes in the top5 tomboys here.

[Lumberjack]

Man, Ed had a tough battle here, but pulled it out in the end. Madoka picked up more votes this round than she did in the previous two rounds combined.

I think that is called "complaining." I can only imagine what would have happened if I had "campaigned" for her properly before, like many did in the second round.

I still don't understand exactly how we were supposed to be able to campaign for our players. It seems like the rules, and the way the rounds were organized were not in sync. I hardly think that anyone read all the posts in the round before voting. Not that anyone was saying a whole lot about their players anyways. Mostly just a bunch of people stating how they voted, but I don't understand why they would, other than to just babble.

Anyways, Congrats to those that won.

Despite the loss, I'm glad to see that Anna did as well as she did here. Thanks to everyone who voted for Anna &amp; good luck to the winners! /images/graemlins/happy.gif
