We pick a TV show and list up all of the characters who have gotten main billing + some iconic recurring characters and then we do a simple Survivor style game where we eliminate all of our least faves until only the top character remains. We can keep this all in the same thread as to not spam the forum and I'll update the first page with all our winners if this gets off the group. Elimination rounds will be ranging from saving your faves, voting your least faves, giving ESC style pts, ranking the remaining people etc. There will usually be 12 rounds max depending on the number of characters listed. I think it would be fitting to do maybe Glee first? Or perhaps something like Desperate Housewives, Stranger Things, Game of Thrones? What do y'all think? Any interest?

It’s the next show on my to-watch list GoT is a good one although I feel we did that before didn’t we? Or maybe it was a rate? Looney Tunes could be a fun one, or maybe “Nickelodeon Stars” and have Spongebob vs Rugrats characters etc etc which might be a bit more accessible.

There was a GoT rate last year I think now that you mention it but the results were never posted

The first theme will be therefore be Free Choice (Scripted) or in other words no restrictions based on genre, year of show release etc. Other than the fact that the characters must be from scripted TV shows. RULES FOR NOMINATIONS: You can nominate FOUR characters, regardless of gender. The TV shows they originate from must be scripted and not reality TV, sports, news or game shows You can only nominate one character per show. ex. one poster can only nominate one character from Game of Thrones for example, but another poster can also nominate someone from Game of Thrones. You can only nominate one character per actor. ex. one poster can only nominate one character played by the same actor, but another poster can also nominate someone played by the same actor. Both animated and live action shows are allowed here. Once a character has been nominated there is no need to nominate it again. When nominating please specify the name of the character and the show they are from. Nominations will be open for 48 hours but may be extended if not enough people nominate. After nominations are closed there will be a pre-qualifying round where we narrow the cast down to a sensible 16 to 20. Any castaway that is not chosen for the final cast will be eligible for a future season. The rest will take part in a 12-round game to choose the first Sole Survivor of Buzzjack's TV Survivor!
