Colorseum 75-5

[nidoking]

Last week's results:

Murasaki-dono [14] - [5] Hiruko Shizuhara
Faye Valentine [14] - [5] Fern

Good day, Colors players. My name is Elizabeth. I am here to host the most amazing battle tournament in existence - the Colorseum!
Don't worry, no one will get hurt, at least as long as I don't want them to... The battles will not be decided by strength or strategy, but rather by the ability to win the crowd's hearts! And the judges... will be you!

Want more details? My pleasure!
- Each 'round' will consist of 5 'sub-rounds', posted weekly. They will be First Round A, First Round B, Quarterfinals, Semifinals and the Final!
- Each round will have a theme - they work in a similar way to the Scrapbook things you use here.
- Each round will have 16 characters from various series fighting in one-on-one battles, in a form of a knockout tournament.
- You decide who will advance to the next round by casting your votes.
- The votes are unscreened, and every player participating will get the same prizes, regardless of the final results! That means you can always vote for the characters YOU like the most!
- Feel free to try to convince other players to vote for your favourites! Bribery, threats - anything goes! Just be civil about that.
- I will always vote last, just before closing the round. If two characters are tied after that, the one with the higher seed advances to the next round.

Now, let's see today's battles!


Our participants are seeded 1 to 16, based on the amount of nominations they received. Higher seed always holds the tiebreaker, if necessary.

The 75th round's theme is... PURPLE HAIR! That's right, hair color rounds are back!

Let's look at the tournament bracket, then:



So, are the participants ready? Here are today's battles:

THE FINAL


(seed 1) Murasaki-dono (Colors Universe) versus (11) Faye Valentine (Cowboy Bebop)



ROUND 76 NOMINATIONS

During the final week of this round, you can nominate characters for the next one! Here's how it works:
- you can nominate up to 4 characters, each fitting the theme stated below
- if you try to nominate more than 4 characters, I will only count the first 4
- the order of nominations doesn't matter
- if you want your nominations to be valid, you must include the characters' full names and series
- it doesn't matter if you nominate 1,2,3 or 4, the prize is still the same
- your characters must come from East Asian media (same as for characters you can donate)
- there is no additional limit on characters from the same series in your nomination
- this is only a suggestion, but try to nominate characters who aren't very obscure, so that they stand some chance in the tournament
- once a character has taken part in any of the tournaments, they may not be nominated to another one until the nearest special round (which will happen after each 8 rounds)
- you cannot nominate a character from a series that already had a winner in this season. (for now: Honkai Star Rail, Danganronpa)
- If you nominate a character from a series that has a participant in the final and they happen to win, the nomination for that character will not count.
- you also can't nominate any character that was a season champion in the past, or who has won a tournament in season 9 or above (tournament winners from seasons 1-8 are now okay). (full list of tournament winners and season champions)

After this week, 16 characters competing in the next round will be selected
- There will be a limit of 1 character per canon (and 2 characters per multi-universe franchise, like Tales or Final Fantasy)
- I can disqualify a character if I believe they don't fit the requirements or theme of the round

Now, let's get to the topic of the next round...
It's Superheroes! They don't have to have superpowers, as long as the typical superhero vibe is there.

You can vote using this from, though it is not mandatory.
<b>The Final:</b> <b>Round 76 nominations:</b>

For voting, you will get two random crayons. For nominating any number of characters, you will get two more crayons, making it a total of four random crayons.
Remember, the prizes are the same for everyone, no matter who wins the battles! So vote for your favourites, not the characters you 'expect' to win.

You can look at results of all the battles so far at our website!



This round will close on 18th April, Central European time!
