A little late on this,but giving the half-week warning. Sunday decides the Top 3. Nothing's changed since Waluigi Time's vote still. So Snake and Rosalina are still set to be the Shroom characters and Luigi the last non-shroom section.

Now to decide who's going into the Shroom and the last non-shroom section. For now, Snake and Rosalina are set for the Shroom. While Luigi will be a non-shroom section should nothing change in a week
Mythra's still currently set to be #4 should nothing change by Sunday. And for now Snake and Rosalina are our Top 2. Though there's still close to 2 weeks to decide that

Luigi 18
Snake 14
Mythra 14
Link 12
Now next week decides #4. At the moment, that's Mythra. (Once again tiebreaker is decided by how many people have voted for them. 3 have voted for Snake. 2 for Mythra)
Gray Discord's vote means Link is who will be locked in at #5 as a heads up for anyone unless a last chance vote before I lock in #5 sometime around noon tomorrow
You're the only one who voted for Dark Pit. You put Dark Pit at #2 in your current list. That amounts to 8 points. I made some point miscalculations earlier and (hopefully) corrected all of them. That's why it went from 10 to 8 suddenly.
Just a reminder of how the votes work for everyone...
Sonic and Banjo-Kazooie now covered in the Shroom!
Though also, a last chance to get our #5 locked down. At the current moment that is still set to be Luigi

I've realized I've made some counting errors regarding some votes, I think I've fixed them now though. But anyway, here's how things stand. Currently, it's Luigi who's slated for the #5. If nothing changes, Luigi will be the first non-shroom section of the 3rd batch. (Luigi...
Everything is set for the next weekend release of The Shroom! It is however, now time to start deciding who will be in February's issue. Any votes that have been made carry over as always even if there's people who haven't had a full set of 5 for a while since they made it into the Top 5 of...

Whoopsie, I forgot to give a notice about #4 being locked in earlier today. To make up for forgetting, I'm extending the deadline for #4 to be locked in to Monday noon. The Top 3 will still be slated to be locked in next Sunday. If nothing changes by Monday noon. Ness will be locked in.
That's the entire thing though, the fact Sega's even trying a style for Sonic that could easily go wrong. When for more then a decade they generally stuck with what was safe with the Unleashed day stages. (Aside from Lost World, which was more of an experiment more then anything. I didn't...
I'm going to try to be cautious with my hype for this game, but if there's one thing I'm happy about. This is absolutely going the be the most ambitious Sonic game in a long time. Perhaps since the first Sonic Adventure, I know we don't know alot about the gameplay still, but just the confirmed...
LESS THAN 24 HOUR ALERT! Nothing has changed since I gave the notice on Monday But thought I'd get a final day warning. Mythra will again be locked in at #5 if nothing else happens

Steve and Piranha Plant are being saved for the December shroom issue. The plan was this months, but I applied slightly too late. This next vote is for the January issue
Ok, once again as I mentioned this will be a long time until things are decided for the January issue. It won't be until December 5th that the first character (Whoever is in 5th place) is locked in. Steve and Piranha Plant are still coming to the December issue of the Shroom. But for now, here's...
Just a quick update. Some good news and bad news
For the good news, I'm happy to announce that this has been officially approved as a section of the Shroom!
For the bad news, I didn't realize how much things were sneaking up so fast and I admit I probably should have sent in an application...

The next batch of 5 referring to when it's time for the next 5 characters. Also again, the votes don't determine the overall merit ranking. If a character from the next batch of 5 I feel has higher merit then all 5 of this group and others are higher then some but lower then others then in the...

And now the final character is added to the poll. You can now say your favorite Ultimate newcomer without wondering if someone else is waiting in for the wings.
My final answer right now is Inklings are my favorite to play, though Banjo is my favorite inclusion overall. Though I also really...
Once they're locked in. No more votes will be counted for them. Those who voted for Chrom and Dr. Mario are free to change their vote to someone else (Removing their vote also doesn't remove the score they were locked in at), though unless it's to boost the score (Or if their vote boosts someone...

Now we are just one week from deciding not just the last non-Shroom section character for this batch, but the Top 2 heading into the Shroom!
LESS THAN 24-HOUR ALERT! If nothing changes by noon EST tomorrow, Steve will be the next character locked in, because of SGoW's change of vote. Steve is tied with Dr. Mario. But more people have voted for Steve then for Dr. Mario (3 for Steve, 2 for Dr. Mario). So he takes priority currently...

Just for clarification. You can change all of your votes even if one or all 5 characters have been locked in. It's just if there's a character that surpasses the vote count for the 5th place character, they cannot be lifted into a position of being covered in the set of 5 unless they're voted...

People can vote to have someone above Chrom now, but unless they're voted above 4th place. It will only carry over into the next voting session.
Of course, with a Fire Emblem character being the first one up. I'm...
5th-2nd is covered in this thread, while #1 is on the Shroom. If I waited until #1 was first. That kind of leaves less time for me to finish the bulk of the fighters. So yes, I'll be starting with the character who gets locked in at 5th within a week of voting starting first. And most likely 4th...
Is there something I can do to clarify any confusion?
Also... because of Gray Discord's vote. Chrom is now tied with Banjo. However, Banjo's still going to be the choice if nothing else changes because tiebreakers include how many people voted for them and/or how highly they put them on the...
