What time??
... cuz I HAVE A BIG DATE with this 28 year old guy on Valentines Day and I MAY BE BUSY....

Yeah, I said it like that cuz im braggin:cool:

...darn...I should have put it in bigger bold lettters...

Doubt I'll be as fortunate as the 28 year old guy novakru is off out with, but on the plus side that does mean I'll probably be around for the grand unveiling. I might even wear a red carnation so I'm easily recognised.:)

Also, wish I'd have beaten neverending to the punch on #83 that was a sweet trade in....

But I thought our date was after this unveiling...;)

No worries. I think you will be online when it all happens.

Looks like I missed the boat or train or whatever the hell this thing is you guys are on.

Ok. Mine are finally in.

Hope we get to do some writing challenges. I still owe Chrono a literary ass whipping.:p

Fuck no.

Burn in hell, teachers pet!! :mad:

Illiterate fool! You do not understand the joy of writing, heathen!

me write - me like write - me get crayon

PMs still remaining from - Illdojo and ManchestrMorgue.

Waiting .

I don't know... it seems to me requiring the participation of people who rarely logon is one thing that bogged down the last game...

I think the big question is, will the game begin in MY lifetime? :D

Think I have to agree. And you can't necessarily expect people to participate when they haven't made the decision to sign up themselves.

did i win yet??

Nope, you'll have a pre final round against Angra first.:)

Yea, don't copy my lines, monkey boy. ;)

Why dont we just say we all win?

Man, that's loser talk. :cool:


You've got crappy directors, don't ya? ;) :p

I still have no clue what the hell is going on....

nah nah nah nah

All PMs in attendance.

Ready for ignition in T minus 3...2...1...

Good luck in choosing, contestants!


Expect a major announcement at the end of the next 48 hours.

Though it's tough to make a choice like that but I think it'll be better for rest of us if contestant with better among best directors get eliminated...(Oh! I need an evil face emotion sign here!)

Just use your avatar. :D

Have received 10 PMs so far.

Still 24 hours to the deadline.

Am I supposed to do something?

Yes. Send me a PM indicating your choices of TWO contestants in The Danger Zone of Group A whom you want to eliminate from Showdown II.

13 PMs in so far. 12 hours to go.

And the time is up!

Let's see who got the noms from the crowd...



In 5TH PLACE, was MISSMACABRE, with 3 VOTES IN FAVOR OF ELIMINATION!!






In 4TH PLACE, was DESPARE, with 4 VOTES IN FAVOR OF ELIMINATION!






That leaves Illdojo, Psycho d and The Mothman...







In 3RD PLACE...






was...






THE MOTHMAN!

WITH 5 VOTES IN FAVOR OF ELIMINATION!!




Which means...




BOTH PSYCHO D AND ILLDOJO HAVE BEEN NOMINATED TO BE ELIMINATED FROM GROUP A FOR SHOWDOWN II!

...with 8 VOTES EACH, no less.






Sorry guys, the masses have spoken and shown you the door. Good game.






And now for, the announcement...

MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT FOR SHOWDOWN II


As you saw, Illdojo and Psycho d were chosen to be eliminated from Group A. Which makes the SIX Masters of Cinema they had in their team, FREE FOR SELECTION AGAIN!

The catch is, they join a list of 35 OTHER MASTERS OF CINEMA for a trade-in for all you fine folks!

Since Group A have finished their first round, they get the first shot.

Group A listers - send me a PM of your choice of ONE number from the following list, which you would like to trade-in for one of your original choices which you think has performed poorly/below expectations in Round 1...

List - 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140, 141.

For e.g., Cheebacheeba sends me a PM saying - "I am trading my #16 for #131."


You may also PROCEED TO CHOOSE ANY THREE (MAXIMUM) OTHER FILMS FOR YOUR REMAINING TWO MASTERS OF CINEMA. That is, if you feel your original choices didnt do very well in Round 1.



You have till the end of Round 1 for Group B as your choosing time.

Good luck! Better hurry!

Can't I just keep all of mine the same?

If you want to. No problemo.
