iron pony,  I'd prefer Pony Stark not be anypony's OC, Tony is annoying enough in RL,
"Don't do that, Deadpool" "
Deadpool, explosives will get us nowhere, let's use technology"
"Deadpool, stop talking to those imaginary speech bubbles."

Oh wait you mean the Iron pony from the running of the leaves episode, I still won't be participating do to chance of Pony Stark appearing.

I can't wait to watch my OC Cloudburst totally make a mess of his chances

Yep.  Willing to sacrifice winning for the good of the board and be comic relief!

[riverroo]

well, that makes me want to infer a question.  Do winners get chosen because of their character performing well?  or are all events decided purely on RP style and quality?  If so, then you could make your OC fall flat on their faces and still win the gold.

Each event is judged by the designer/OP differently. Some do judge what happens in the roleplay, others may use actual numbers to determine an outcome. My second event will have players giving me numbers, and those numbers are connected to how many points they actually receive.

I don't know if I will participate in any of this but I like the idea! I start looking at the threads and my creative cogs sieze up.

My... I picked a nice time to step back into the RP board.  I missed the last few events, but I certainly don't intend to miss this!

[Motion Paradox]

Oh Drat! I'm going to miss it! Are we having another next year? My application wasn't accepted in time
