Should we have a tournament?
| Should we have another Tournament again, but this time with all vampires? Or should we just keep it to anime and manga again? Since there is more vampire anime/manga out, there will be more characters now. My opinion: I don't really care if we do a tournament, but if we do an all vampires, we know someone from Twilight will win, so maybe we should just stick anime and manga. What do you guys think? |

So if we do have another tournament, lets stick with anime, manga and possibly videogames (like Castlevania and such). After all, this is "The Best Vampire Fan Club Ever", not "The Best Sparkly Fairy Fan Club Ever" :) |

It would add a few more characters to the tournament. Having book characters might be hard to find pictures for as well. |
| Best is sticking to anime and manga and game if possible.. |
 |
| I agree with the anime/manga/game. Touhou, y? xD No sparkling fairies. |
| Need to make new sig. Soon. Maybe. |
| Completely agree. Anime/manga/game are the best options. |
Sayuri said: "The Best Sparkly Fairy Fan Club Ever" XDDD And I agree with everyone^^ Anime/manga/game vampires only.... |

ayashe said: Yeah, but if we stick to anime and manga we know someone from Vampire Knight will win. That is true, but I think we have a better chance of someone else winning, better than if Twilight was added. |
Linalee-Stratos said: Best is sticking to anime and manga and game if possible.. ayashe said: Yeah, but if we stick to anime and manga we know someone from Vampire Knight will win. Yes to all this. i think we should stick to anime and manga and in order to avoid the whole vampire knight fandom, we should probably divide the tournaments into different categories if it's possible, might be too much work but i might be more fair and logical :D just saying |

Many people ignore what the category is and still vote for who they like more. It happens in most tournaments. |
| I voted "Yes, but *insert other idea here*" I like the idea of video game vampires, since Alucard (aka Adrian Farenheights Tepes, and you'd probably have to use that name alongside Alucard so that no one picks him in the poll mistaking him for Hellsing's Alucard)from Castlevania is a very popular vampire. <3 And a definite with capitals NO to vampires from books, cause Edward would almost definitely win then due to the many Twilight rabid fan girls out there, though Lestat would probably fair well... Guess you could always do a book thing with just those two. *shrugs* I suggest doing it by catagories since some anime and manga will depict the same character a little different, and those little difference can end up deciding whether someone likes or loves a character at times. And it'd be nice if you just put all the Hellsing and Vampire Knight characters in their own little contest just for them, otherwise either Alucard or Zero will sweep the board clear. Personally, I never understood why Zero is more popular. I mean sure, compared to many other vampire characters out there he's more...realistic in his reactions to what he deals with, not keeping a mary sue attitude, but other than that I just dont' see... no matter, but point is something will have to be done so that lesser known vampires will stand a chance against the ones which sweeped the board last time, and would again. |

| @mangastar: If we do categories, which ones should we have? |
Batmanfreak said: @mangastar: If we do categories, which ones should we have? First, I'd have it separated into anime, manga, and if you do video games. That will knock out some competition in each catagory right then since some anime don't have manga, and vice-versa. Then it should probably be something along the lines of, which is the most vampire-behaving (as in not so much how like they are compared to Stroker's Dracula, but which for the basic idea of a vampire, as in a blood-sucking creature of the night), which is the most mary sue, which is the cutest/most attractive (one for male vampires, one for female), and of course the all around who's your favorite, period...though like I've said one of that nature has quite predictable results. But that way, there's bound to be multiple vampires shining and not just one or two. Like, Zero is definitely not mary sue like at all, nor is Alucard, so that alone would leave an oppurtinity for another vampire, perhaps one quite unknown to most, to win. And since the majority of most popular vampires are male, by doing cutest female it would give a female one a chance to shine. ^^ But doing that would take lots of threads if it was all sliced up by anime, manga, and video game, and while some come across different compared to whether it's the anime or manga one, for the most part many are similar enough, so I suppose they could all just be clumped together. These are my thoughts on this. |

| I'm not going to split it into video games, manga, and anime sections. That is too much work and Vampire Knight is in all of those categories. Most popular anime have video games based off of them. As for the categories, would could do, Toughest (Who would win in a fight), Attractive (Girl), Attractive (Guy), Maybe Mary Sue, and then a popularity contest(which one people like more overall). I think 5 different categories is pretty good. Popular ones will probably still win, because they are who people know the best. I try to read or watch a little bit about every character before I vote, but most people don't. |
| Is the most Mary Sue category prepared especially for dear female protagonist of Twilight? Oh wait. it IS Twilight specifically for all of them. I definitely agree with the female tournament, be it cutest female or most attractive. Hmm. Or just female. And male smexy attractiveness one... what about attractive female, then attractive male ...aaand.. cutest from both? The toughest one is a good idea but we would have to put up nominations for these (for Mary Sue too unless we make it little Twilight tournament) of course.. Definitely an only-game vampires for gamers (to avoid the anime/manga/other stuff adaptated in games). We already had popularity before so let's do that as last. Hopefully more new vampires will come~ I also want to sell the idea of best vampire bite cos that would need nomination with pics~~ which is always fun. XD. Haha maybe after we finish all these and run out of ideas. By the way....there is Twilight manga *horrified look* Let's deny its existence as the denial of High School Musical manga goes. |

| Need to make new sig. Soon. Maybe. |
| lol I completely agree with Alwerien. I say a vampire tournament with anime, manga, and video games. We should divide this into some sections where the winner each section will then be pitted against each other. I think some of the sections should be female, male (should these two be based on hotness?) toughest/badass, a game-only vamps, and I'd even consider any vamps from Vampire Knight to be in their own category because there are just so many of them. And I just want to say, I used to like Twilight but the crazy fangirls have ruined it for me... |
 |
| Okay, should we do them all at the same time or one at a time? I would say if we do them one at a time, the two look ones can go at the same time, since they are kinda the same thing, just male and female. Also, what order should we go if we do them one at a time? |
| One at time. Agree with the female and male possibly at same time. All it could be female/male changed by day. Like Monday: Female 1, Tuesday: Male 1, Wednesday: Female: 2. Plus it would keep the 2 days of voting period as we had in the first contest. I would start with the Toughest one so it's a change after last tournament? We should get nominations thread for that one going if you agree~ Then maybe the only-game since they have been left out and after that the male/female? And then..we will decide later XD. |
| Need to make new sig. Soon. Maybe. |
| I don't know about a game-only one. Most popular video game vampires already have an anime or manga based off of them. Maybe there are more than I think though. Okay I will start with the toughest one. I will get that up right now. |
| Hmm....we will see I guess. |
| Need to make new sig. Soon. Maybe. |
| I like the idea of just doing manga and anime vampires... but that is too limited and there a lot of Cute vampires in the anime and manga world, making the inevitable winner Alucard. |
