So, HEROHAMO's post in the best avatar thread gave me a great idea. We're going to use NC43Hog's avatar wall, and have a playoffs to decide the best avatar here at THN. We're going to take the large ones seven at a time and vote for the best among them. Then we will choose one wild-card from the small ones to compete with the big boys. Each flight vote will last one week. Voting ends Saturday at 11:59 PM ET. After all the flights of the first round are complete, we are going to go head to head, until there are three entries left. The last three will square off in a final vote, and we will have our champion.

So, without further ado, I give you the choices in flight #1:

Please announce your vote by posting in the thread, or I'm not going to count it. That way I can tell when the vote was cast, and we can prevent ballot box stuffing. (You know who you are :twisted:

)

Damn, I hate sports in July...

I voted for myself b/c I was the only one that used my own photo in my avatar.

I voted for FIOS because I was thirsty.

None, because I am being snubbed here :evil:

PLEASE NOTE!!!
This has been moved to the Lounge, where Deadskins intended it...

Respond accordingly!

Thanks!

You're not being snubbed. I didn't realize yours wasn't included in NC43's Wall-o-Avatars. I'll add yours to the final flight of the large avatars.

I was joking. Mine is there.

D'oh. I totally didn't see it there on the end, :oops:

You're third flight.

Crazyhorse

This is a really tough call for me. I've narrowed it down to three.

crazyhorse1: Classic, proud, Indian Warrior and Larry Brown. Great avatar!

Fios: Gotta love Master Shake. He's got Portis and Monk in the back. But... the straw is definitely swinging Portis, not Art. :roll:

goskins: Vince Lombardi hovering over Sonny. Nuff said!

:-k

But, which one of these?

This may take a while.

D Green was my childhood favorite, so gibshog took my vote

Posted: **Sun Jul 01, 2012 10:41 pm**

I like Gibbshog as well. Cant beat three Lombardis with DG intercepting the ball.

Posted: **Mon Jul 02, 2012 6:28 am**

I've gone for GoSkins, just ahead of DeHog and CrazyHorse.

An alternative way would have been to vote

1st, 2nd and 3rd among ALL avatars, not only the onces "pre-selected" here.

1st = 9 points
2nd = 6 points
3rd = 3 points

You add them all with a deadline and boom! You have your three top avatars elected in a democratic way. :wink:

Kinda like the BCS vs. Playoff style format :wink:

G4L !!!

No Gibbs, no 3 SB victories.

Plus the way the trophies are in the air above the stadium and Gibbs waiving makes me teary eyed... that and the fact I still have no power.

How long has that been now mate....?

Fios because something you know whatever

Posted: **Thu Jul 05, 2012 11:19 am**

Is it ironic that the avatar I like the best belongs to one of the posters I got along with the least?

I think that fits FFA/I-B's definition from the other thread.

My friend tomorrow will be 1 week since I lost power. I'm at work now but I'm leaving in 1/2 hour to go and take care of my dog. All the pet lodges were booked because of 4th of July and also due to the power outages so I've been using vacation time to go and keep her hydrated during the day and such. My living room is cool enough though so she's not burning up.

Dang Joe. I live on a back-mountain road in the middle of the woods and we got power back Sunday afternoon. I guess you live to close to DC.
