This is just to see if there are enough people interested in this for me to go through the work of starting it. For veterans of the contest, this is the contest version, and the earlier contests, not the later ones. Nor is this the MMO.

For people who weren't around or just never joined, this is a quick summary of what to expect.

It's a voting based user contest with a twist. There are abilities which can alter the votes. I'll give some examples later. There is no bracket, you challenge users to a match (users you assume that you can beat) in a challenge topic which is always posted the day before matches. Users can't deny your challenge, so it's pretty much first come first serve. The next day you will be in a match with them where people can vote for one of you, each vote is worth one point. After 24 hours, whoever has the most votes wins, and gets one more random ability, the loser is eliminated.

Here's a few of the abilities that might be in the contest:

+1: Used during the match, gives you one more point.
Forfeit: Used in the challenge topic, this is the only way to get out of a match.
Recall: Used during a match before it ends. Match will be done again during the next day of matches.
Counter: 50% chance to counter an ability an opponent used.
Steal: Steal an ability from a user of your choice.
Magnet: Used during a challenge topic. You can challenge two users to a match. (In a match with more than 2 users, only the user with the least points is eliminated, everyone else in the match "wins.")

There will be more abilities than this, but that should give you a rough idea. Any questions feel free to ask.

This is not a sign up topic, this is just to see if people are interested.

Awesome, Stifled and Boko are enough on their own to warrant me running this.

The tension from the hatred and rivalry is clearly already starting.

I will kill him with kindness, BBall! Just you wait and see!

lol yes, I think it's been since roughly 2008, Boko. I did that whole "leave the board thing", but since I have tons of time to kill at work, I decided to make a return. Plus I missed a lot of you. Not all of you. *evil glare to anyone this doesn't apply to*
