Burnout Battle

I'm probably not the first person to do this, but I decided I wanted to, and so I will.

Tournament Layout

The tournament will be split into two stages.

In the first stage, polls containing 4 songs will be posted. Each will last a week, and there will be 25 polls in total, one posed a day. This means Stage 1 will take about a month to complete.

The winner and second place in each poll will move onto Stage 2. The top 14 third place songs (as decided by the proportion of the votes they recieved) will also move on.

I've tried to partially seed the groups, placing one of the 25 most popular (to me, you may disagree with the choices) Undertale songs into each group.

In Stage 2, there will be several rounds of single elimination, going from 64 to 32 to 16 and 8 and 4 and 2 and finally the best Undertale song. I can't say anything for certain about how I'll post these, and there may be a short break between the end of Stage 1 and the start of Stage 2.

Feel free to send in propaganda for your favourite tracks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have a blorbo who looks completely human but they give off the biggest creature vibes? Do most of their fanart/fans say "erm actually" when it comes to their human-looking canon appearance and give them creature traits anyways? Well, this is the tournament for you!

Submissions close sometime in December

Rules for submissions!!

There will be fandoms that get vetoed automatically, stuff like HP and such I really don't like and don't want to include. if you don't know if a fandom is vetoed send in an ask and I'll answer.

Submit as many characters as you want but only submit a character once.

No real people, or oc's. Popular AU's that have enough to be their own source can be allowed but you need to provide why and the sources.

In canon they MUST look human. They can not have canon non-human traits, so c!philza minecraft would not qualify because he canonically has wings but c!tommyinit could because in canon he's just a guy.

Your little guys doesn't have to be human tho, if they are technically not human but look completly human in canon they qualify. So like a hsr or genshin character, they are human but not technically because they are not from earth.

#asks is the tag when I answer asks.

#propaganda or #anti-propaganda will be the propaganda tags

Hello everyone! I’m your local tournament runner and pathetic character lover, Vee (he/they)!

Submit Characters To The Tournament

That Google Form will be open for a week, so it’ll close at 12:00 PM CST on November 26!

There will be certain fandoms I won’t accept characters from, but to avoid unnecessary drama I won’t be listing the fandoms, I simply won’t put the characters in the tournament.

This post will be updated with the bracket once submissions are closed and sorted through!

Also; you can submit multiple characters, but please do not submit the same character more than once! It fills the results with unnecessary spam and makes it more difficult to get through all the submissions.

Paladin Tourney - Submissions OPEN!

Welcome, one and all, to the Paladin Tourney! Here, we will pit our beloved knights in shining armor against each other to determine who is Tumblr's favorite paladin!

I'm loosely defining "paladin" as any character who is, or who resembles, a paladin or knight, in either appearance or personality. They may wear the iconic shining armor, have an oath that they're fiercely determined to keep, or just have the vibes.

Tourney rules:

Be kind. You're welcome to make propaganda for or against characters, but don't attack people over who they vote for. Being racist, ableist, homophobic, or otherwise bigoted gets you blocked.

Please don't submit characters from Harry Potter, Attack on Titan, Vivziepop, or South Park. No OCs either, sorry. I probably won't accept submissions from real life unless you can make a good case for them in the propaganda section.

You can submit multiple characters, but please don't submit the same character multiple times unless you need to add or change something. Fill out the form separately for each character unless you want them to go together as a team.

If there's something wrong or you have tips for improving the tourney, please let me know! I've never run a Tumblr tournament before so I don't really know what I'm doing.
