Default Deathmatch II: THE FINAL - 08-18-2005, 20:40

Soooo, remember when I used to do deathmatches?

I never quite got around to finishing the last one off

Granny and Rincewind won the semi finals, so, it's down to the big one.

For people that don't know, deathmatch works by pitting 2 characters against each other in a no hold barred popularity contest.

Simply, you vote for your favourite character and the one with the most votes wins.

We now have a poll feature as well, so it's all good

No more doing a kunpock

Lets Bring on:

Granny Vs Rincewind

As I've said before, rincewind's one of my favourite characters. So, he gets my vote

Oh, I should add:

The poll ends when I feel like it

If it's close, then I'll announce in advance when it'll be called, to give those floating voters a chance to get a vote in

Oh come on people... Granny is so much cooler! She cannot be beaten! She knows everything! And anyone who wears a sign to tell people she aten't dead... I mean that's just good sense!

Edit: And, AND... Granny would just have to stare at Rincewind and he'd run off home! Nya ha ha! :badgrin:

I vote for Rincewind, because he doesn't want to it, he runs away alot and he always comes out ok.....plus, the luggage likes him.

Edit because I spelled damn Rincewinds name wrong, gah, what is wrong with me. I mean, besides the obvious.


Fuck Shoes.

Granny. If Rincewind turned up at all. Well, maybe he'd win if it was a running competition.

Rincewind has saved Discworld on more than one occasion, he somehow always find a way to save the day, and he isn't selfish either, letting Coin escape from The Things.

Granny. She's clearly a miles superior character. Her books are far more powerful than Rincewind's, and still funny.


Mrs G
The Garner who cares.

Rincewind, because I've never really been able to identify with Granny. And he's funnier.

Has to be Rincewind. He makes me laugh. And he looks like Rinso

Seriously though, Rincewind rocks. Granny is an excellent character, but I thought about it, and Rincewind it has to be.


That would also be... CONDENSATION.

I voted for Granny.
Let's face it, the main reason that the Unseen University don't let women in is that they know the women would be better than them
