Round 1 is going up now! All matchups were randomized. These will stay up for just a couple of days, so vote early and often. And post which you voted for! The voting criteria is...whatever you want! Funniest drawing, best drawing, up to you. If you didn't participate in FEllestrations obviously feel free to still vote and comment


BONUS!: I'm combining the two phrases from each matchup together as the poll's description. If you feel so inclined (and all are encouraged to join this), draw that new phrase and post it in the matchup thread! It'll be like a bonus round of FEllestrations. You could draw just one of them, some of them, or every single one if you're crazy. Maybe if we get enough of these as the tourney goes on, we can do a side poll or tourney at the end to determine the best bonus drawing

Could be neat! Would love to see people do it to add some spice to the tourney and make it more fun

Just the eight matchups for now but probably dumping 8 more later tonight

All 32 matchups for round one are up! Vote your hearts out and post what you voted for. Round one matchups will probably all close tomorrow night, so make sure you vote in these latest 16 quickly!

Very pleased with the pictures for the bonus game so far, great stuff. More should join!

Round 1 has closed! Let's run the numbers:

The person with the most drawings nominated out of the initial 64 was.....Badger! Sadly, Sock and Ahoda had none, sorry boys :(

Badger: 6
Boc: 5
Mal: 5
Rose: 5
Herm: 4
Wikey: 4
Steph: 4
Curtis: 4
Shadow: 3
TT: 3
Rodney: 3
Dylan: 3
Wes: 2
Cody: 2
Christian: 2
Spin: 2
Nav: 1
Patrick: 1
Stargate: 1
Buffy: 1
Lamps: 1
KC: 1
317: 1
Sock: 0
Ahoda: 0

A very even spread otherwise!

After cutting down from 64 to 32 we're left with:

Herm: 4
Mal: 4
Steph: 3
Badger: 3
Rose: 3
Rodney: 2
Curtis: 2
Wikey: 2
Dylan: 2
Spin: 1
Patrick: 1
Boc: 1
TT: 1
Wes: 1
Stargate: 1
Buffy: 1

It's fair to say the generator was the harshest to poor Boc

We had 12 bonus drawings during round one which were fantastic, I loved them all. Would love to see more as we go, it's lot of fun to see new versions of 'characters' appear in new ways. All bonus drawings tucked in the spoiler tag below:

Speaking of characters, of the 64 drawings nominated, our most popular repeated character was...Sonic! He appeared in 6 drawings, Giraffes and the Devil appeared in 5, while Pooh, Gandalf, and Pacman appeared in 3 each. Of the five Sonics that were nominated, NONE survived the first round of voting. Gandalf and Giraffes had some staying power with 3 each moving on

Round two going up later tonight!

HONORABLE MENTIONS!

I'm gonna do these in batches (note to self: up through the first 6 threads), but here are some drawings that fell through the cracks during the nomination process. Each one received at least 10 likes in the original threads:
