By the way, we've done this before...back when Buffyfest was just a private forum with a few members. We'd get into fights. Matter of fact, one time Bitsy refused to put in her final choice for an episode - which would decide the Final Champion since it was a tie-breaker. It was something about defending Cordelia Chase's honor. Don't ask.
Ok, today is day 1. This is part (1 of 4) of round 1. It will end in 4 days - March 5th at 11:59 pm Eastern Standard Time. See the pairings below and if you want to play, leave your choices in the comments section of this post.
The Sunnydale Region - Location:
The Bronze - Sunnydale, California
The Bronze - Sunnydale, California
Jonathan vs. Oz
River vs. Chantarelle/Lily/Anne
Willy the Snitch vs. Jenny Calendar
Zoe vs. Mal (What? I didn't decide it!)
Faith vs. Penny
Lorne vs. Spike
Jasmine vs. Darla

We have decided to not add Dollhouse characters as of yet. See the Dollhouse Death Watch for the reasons why. ooh, burn!

ok, I guess I'm going first:
-Oz
-River
-Willy
-Zoe
-Faith
-This is impossible since Lorne is probably my favorite B character but Spike is so going to take it and he's obviously fantastic too. Still, someone has to vote for Lorne and if that person's not me, then who will it be? Lorne it is. Ugh.
-Darla
-Fray
That was way tougher that I thought it would be, and not just for Lorne.
- Oz
- River

Re: Karnatos - Hee! I lol'ed at "Spoke" myself b/c it was cute. Cute trumps cool often!
Re: Shutterbug - Faith vs. Penny really was awful. It wasn't me, it's randomized!
I'm surprised at all the Jenny votes but I guess Willy is a snitch and all....
Love your blog...

If poor Lorne were up against almost anyone else, he would have won. Oh, well.

Curse you, Buffyfest, for forcing me to make some of these choices.

That was very, very hard. But I guess it just makes us stronger.
Oh, how I've missed this!
Fight at The Bronze:
-Oz (Poor Jonathan)
-Chantarelle/Lily/Anne (Call me crazy, but I love this character. And why wasn't she in Hell-A?)
-Jenny Calendar
-Mal
-Faith
-Spike (oh, that was not right)
-Darla
-Ethan Rayne
Buffygroupie, I have a feeling this is going to get even more difficult as we continue. Save some of your strength for the end!

Jonathan, River, Willy, Mal, Faith (I think both are pretty weak), Spike, Darla, Ethan Rayne.
Final answer(s).

Couple of tough choices there... especially Zoe/Mal and Faith/Penny. But I'll go with:
Oz
River
Jenny
Zoe
Faith
Spike
Darla
Fray
-Oz
-River
-Willy

-Penny
-Lorne
-Darla
-Ethan

Darla

Ok I'm in, here goes:
Oz
River
Willy the Snitch
Mal
Faith
Spike
Darla
Ethan Rayne
I love the agony! Here goes:
Oz (sorry Jonathan, you're too nice)
Chanterelle/Lily/Anne
Jenny
Mal
Faith
Spike
Jasmine (Darla was never the same after the staking)
Ethan (he almost got Buffy eaten)
Something tells me Oz will make it verrrry far in this tourny.
And oh there are going to be some tears....I can tell already. Hell I'm already depressed that Lorne got knocked out so early. What are the fricken odds that he'd be against one of the most beloved characters of them all? He couldn't be up against Principal Wood or something?
I'll start shedding tears now. Willow and Tara will most like be paired against each other. And very early to boot :(

... I would like to formally apologize to Gina Torres. She got shafted twice in the same bracket. And I am sorry.
Holy Moly! I didn't even realize she got the double shaft! What a crazy, random happenstance!

I have to question some peoples choices.
The people that chose Lilly/Anne over River, have you watched Firefly/Serenity?
Unless your talking about Jonathan the Vampire Slayer, Oz would destroy him, fast!
Lastly, why hasn't anyone picked Jasmine over Darla? Did you skip those episodes of Angel?
marveldenton, THis tourney is for Favorite/Best Character, in your opinion.
If you're thinking that people are choosing Chantarelle/Lily/Anne over River in "Who would win in a fight" or something, then I agree that would definitely be silly. River could probably even take a slayer.
I was looking through the bracket and I really think you should have made an executive decision and not have Wash and Angel in the first round. That will be to hard of a decision to make.
It was randomized.
Oz
River
Jenny
Mal
Faith
Spike
Darla
Ethan Rayne
What about the other brackets? Should we be voting on those?
Nope. Don't worry, Anon, we'll be launching Region 2 tomorrow night at 11:59 pm. That will be the Serenity Region.
My pick for overall winner of that Region? Tara McClay. Just felt like speculating :)
What an awesome idea!

Oops, I meant Thrs 3/5 not Fri 3/5. Fri is 3/6...got confused. Anyway, only about an hour left to pick your region 1 choices.
If you think this is hard, just you wait, 'enry 'iggins, just you wait!
- Oz (Poor Jonathan. This kind of feels like when Andrew got all stabby on him. I'm sorry, little buddy)
- Chantarelle/Lily/Anne (Never liked River. Really enjoyed how far Anne's arc extended for such a minor character)
- Willy the Snitch (Gotta be honest. Robia La Morte got all crazy christian and ruined Jenny Calendar forever for me.)
- Mal (This was the worst. *The* worst. Poor Gina Torres. I'm turning on you twice tonight.)
- Faith (And after I wrote a huge article all about Penny, right? Shame on me but, come one, Faith is just *awesome*. She and Darla have my favorite redemption stories.)
- Lorne (It's not easy being green but I love Lorne almost as much as I live Kermit the Frog. Sing me some Rainbow Connection, baby!)
- Darla (Best character progression ever. Period.)
- Fray (Despite the lackluster Time of Your Life arc of Season 8, she's still one of the most original and interesting characters Joss has ever created.)
Jonathan
River
Jenny
Mal
Faith
Spike
Darla
Fray
Oz
River (the '1vs16' of the region)
Jenny Calender (she died well?)
Mal
Penny
Spike
Darla
...Um Ethan Rayne, I just can't stand Fray, but I don't care for Rayne
ok, it's officially closed! On to part 2 of round 1! Fun times.
