I'm not petty. Ersatz, would you mind waiting to decide until Rade finishes his CS.

That's a very reasonable request. Are we waiting on any other Spider-Men?

[Rade]

No, no. That's not necessary. The CS is finished.

Much like in Henry's CS skeletons for OU, though, I wanted to add a note section, but it's not essential. EE is pretty much already aware on most of my rough NPC and rogue ideas, anyways.

So, decide whenever you're ready, boss. I'll just add the notes in after, should I be accepted. Not a big deal.

I do appreciate the gesture, though, NR.

I guess it's time then... Time to find a suitable acceptance gif more like (#poorplanning).

Edit: Or we could stick to something a little more traditional.

Could always use the crying Spidey gif for the loser.

What? And incur the wrath of Hollywood powerhouse Tobey Maguire? I think I'll play it safe on that one.

Edit: Alright. Drum rolls everybody...

• Punisher (Byrd Man)
• Invisible Woman (Gowi)
• Kraven (Gowi)
• Black Cat (Gowi)
• Captain America (HenryJonesJr)
• Mr Fantastic (HaikuVonAwesome)
• Iron Man (Drew-Ku)
• Deadpool (NightNotRunner).
• Gambit (TheNewYorker)
• Ghost Rider (thatguy)



As for Spider-Man, I have dedicated a lot of thought to this and I can honestly say that I'm not sure of who will be accepted by the end of this tirade. All of the apps (Haiku's included) presented an interesting and fresh take on a character that has been kept in sort of a change-proof bubble wrap dealie for the majority of his page-span.

Nightrunner's take subverts (is that the word?) the cross-species angle that has come into the fore recently. It also embraces organic webbing. This is a hell of a creepy app and that really works for it. You've taken the character from his bare bones and created something tonally different, something I continue to struggle with in my own writing.

Thrawn however (You're not Rade. Shuddap) presents a fairly changed picture of Peter that somehow manages to still come off largely familiar. He has made no attempts of hiding his ideas through PMs and while I can't judge those here, the overall picture is an ultimized take.

I don't know though. Out of fairness at this stage I could flip a coin or eenie meanie it, but that would be unfair on the loser. Should I put it to a vote? I don't want to drag this out...

[Rade]

But... I am Rade... Now I'm so confused. Who am I? Do I even exist?

So long as it isn't decided by eenie meanie... lol

Shhhh. You must unlearn all that you have learnt.

This is honestly hurting my brain now though. I'm sort of inclined to take this to arena and see who wins but mehh. Leave it with me. I'll curb it out.

Edit: incidentally, can everyone who has been accepted post there CSes (separately) in this thread please.

[Rade]

I'm (relatively) patient (sometimes), so take as much time as you need.

[DrewVonAwesome]

Again, I would like to point out it was Thr-ade's Spider-Man that made me feel like dropping out. Not completely but it helped a good bit. I felt like he has the best feel and passion for the character. Nightrunner's I feel like could work too, and this is personal opinion. But the RP works when the character still feels familiar, Iron Man still has the central core of what makes that character, same with Mr. Fantastic. Any changes I do to them, or Spider-Man for that matter, I did while trying to keep what makes the character who they are in the end.

I personally felt like nightrunner's was one that went too far out of its way to be different, and in doing so missed the point of Spider-Man. Again its still an interesting concept, but I feel like Thr-ade's Spider-Man would be my pick if I had the call.

[mattmanganon]

So... I'm out then... Well, thanks anyway.

[Rade]

Thrade. Heh.

Runner's is based more off of Spider-Man 2099, which is why it may not seem all too familiar to you. But thanks for the support, I guess.

Here's an idea: I'll drop out Right Now if you let me do Ben Reilly with this basic origin.

Really?

Well, done, if both of you are okay with that. I'm starting to find myself agreeing with Drew's point.

Yeh, sorry. Perhaps come back with a different app later on? I just don't think that you're a fit for this right now.

Really. I care more about having fun and comprosing so everyone wins than winning a contest on who can reimagine 'superheroes' better.

I suppose you are right, really, I was planning on just doing a few minor story-arcs with my guys before going big a little later on... Really, neither of my characters would really take off until later, anyway. Thanks for reading, anyway.

Well, fair enough.

Got that sorted quickly...

I feel like I'm gonna get a 'No' when he actually responds.
