Should I make Metalocalypse smash or pass polls? Like admittedly @capitalist-bastard-showdown ended prematurely because of burnout and life shit sadly, but fortunately this should be much easier by comparison

The Ritual is complete...
Call me Furfur, if you'd like. And, of course, welcome to the Demonic Showdown, the poll pitting infernal characters of all kinds against each other.
Inspired, of course, by the lovely tumblr polls floating around including @mad-scientist-showdown @aroaceswagcompetition @autismswagsummit @ultimatepinkgirl @capitalist-bastard-showdown among many others.
Now, for the rules.
1. No real people. Real demons are, however, allowed.
2. Submit as many characters as you'd like, but only one at a time please.
3. Be nice. This a tumblr poll. Propaganda, however, is very much encouraged.
If I feel any more rules need to be added, I will do so (and make a post announcing any change made).
Now, without further adieu, the nomination form:
We'll see you soon...
666,
Furfur

My condolences to your loss in @capitalist-bastard-showdown , as consultation the CEO will receive a check of $2.5 billion
ah well, at least we can all rest easy knowing they'll surely pay an appropriate amount of tax on this windfall and donate the remainder to community-led grassroots empowerment projects
... right??

Tl;dr, I've had a lot of changes hit over the past little while, mostly my mental health semi-tanking from all the other stuff happening (though I'm not in any danger or a state of concern or anything), and, with submissions planned to close in two hours, unfortunately I'm not sure if I'll be able to execute the tournament as I thought (at least, not without an extension). So, I'm leaving it up to you guys; thank you for any voting you might do, and thank you for all the voting you've already done

Blorbo Showdown: Round 1, Match 9
Tumblr media Tumblr media
On the left: Naven Nuknuk from Epithet Erased. My favorite from the original stream series, and still my favorite in the reboot. How does a man with so much money manage to be such a failgirl? The world may never know. his vocal performance is SO good in the audiobook also. he rules
On the right: Inside-Track from Astronaut: The Best. The worst person in the tournament is also the most obscure- I had to go get this screenshot myself! From someone's lets play! He's from a game I beta test, and he has no nuance in canon. Horse-faced capitalist bastard. (Yes, I'm the one entering him in all the tournaments.) In the fashion of all the best fictional characters, everything I like about him comes from my own brain.

Hey, so, uh... Rufus Shinra has been entered into the @/capitalist-bastard-showdown. FF7 fans, please go vote for him.
"That means I own you" of course he's more of a bastard than that other guy.

Welcome one and all to the 2023 Tumblr Capital Bastard Showdown!
Tumblr media
A 32-character bracket tournament dedicated to answering the question: "who is the most capitalist bastard in all of fiction?" . Are we voting for our favorites or the biggest bastard of them all? ....yes.
First some ground rules
Absolutely no real people or companies. We get it it’s fun to dunk on people like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, but this tournament is more about escapism. Let’s face it, fictional bastardy is more fun to explore than what’s currently going on in the world. This includes YouTube personalities unless it’s very obviously a character far removed from their actual persona as possible such as Angry Joe’s Corporate Commander or Caddicarus’s Spons. In other words: please no Minecraft SMPs please
Acquisition of wealth doesn’t have to be their sole character motivation, but it helps if it’s still significant enough to their character and so long as they’re willing to do morally questionable things in the name of money they qualify. This is not however the “worst boss” showdown so even though Elias Bouchard was quite a popular submission I‘be been informed by Magnus Archive fans that he’s disqualified since he runs a non-profit.
Similarly “bastard” in this context doesn’t necessarily mean they have to be evil, some might even be protagonists in the stories, as such anti-hero characters are allowed so long as they meet the qualifications of having morally grey at best characterizations and money as a significant motivation. “Bastard” is also gender-neutral.
They have be private citizens in their narrative so monarchs and aristocrats are disqualified.
As per usual, you are allowed to make multiple submissions but you’re only allowed one entry per character.
Propaganda, reblogs, and fan art are fine, just try to be reasonable and not spam too much, and at least accept losses with grace. Even if you “call bullshit” on the results, at least be a good sport about it (ie…this is a Tumblr poll, bro please don’t take this too seriously)
Please feel free to shoot me an ask if you have any genuine questions or spot any potential grey areas, constructive feedback is always appreciated.
