half_silver28 05/01/19 6:35:30 PM #117:	GavsEvans123 posted... Might Dan from Street Fighter be worth considering as an iconic joke character? I considered him along with a wide variety of SF characters. He is a defining joke character, but I felt that wasn't enough for this list. Dan is barely known outside of the FGC too. I do have a lot of thoughts and bracket changes incoming in response to Metalmind's suggestions, but I'll go over a few now: The Ammy test - that seems like a decent enough way to decide a character's viability. I think the characters you identified as more influential than Ammy are deserving of a spot, though Kain and Prince are debatable (only because characters like Cecil or Dr. Wily are perhaps more deserving). The ones you identified as less influential are all in hindsight valid exclusions. I am not too familiar with Garrus or the ME series so I wasn't sure how to go about including him, and Heather was just a thought I had. I had Geese Howard and Nakoruru as not so serious ideas too. Frog is a fan favorite but not too influential. Gex I have little experience with, but he was in a very early 3D platformer series with some unique things. I will have at least 6 slots for new entries - I will concede your point on Lloyd Irving and cut him. Shortlist for inclusion: Kain The Prince of Persia Pauline Ms. Pac-Man Space Invader The Avatar Dr. Wily Cecil Harvey Diablo Garrett QBert More thoughts on seeding later --- B8 Waifu ranking - http://pastebin.com/qnUpLnDA <cite>half_silver28 posted [p:921336974] in Most Influ...
