LOTTERY TOPIC: Riot Ring Teams

A lottery topic is a thread that closes after a week. Your post number counts as a raffle ticket. Once the topic is closed, I will then generate a number based on the max number of posts. The number I land on will have their credits DOUBLED! So stay on topic and chat it up!

This weeks discussion is Riot Ring Teams. Who do you think will be the champions of this season (episode season, not actual season). Keep in mind, it has already been decided and I am usually always 90% in the "heroes don't always win" phase. So lets hear some opinions!

Here are the teams, and the link on their info can be found HERE. If you find there is no article about the team, speculation makes theories and ideas all the more interesting.

My guess would be the Werewind Wolves. They sound like a very formidable team... plus they're dicks, so that would make the win so much more sensational

GAH! I wrote a whole post and it got lost when I had to spellcheck, "Slytherin". Razz

Yeah. I'm with Kane on this one. The Werewind Wolves seem analogous to "Slytherin" from Hogwarts. Them winning would not only add more drama to the story, the concept seems to mesh well with the trio's somewhat faltering beginning for the story. So thinking I know the Director, and the fact that no one really enjoys knowing that the good guys always win, then yeah. Wolves for the championship title!!! Very Happy

And if they don't win, I'll just have to draw them super awesome-like. Wink

I'm just rather disappointed that their names aren't as unique as the more frequent characters in the series. They seem like names picked out from names on a census of the US. Razz

Originally they were going to be the ancient Orial terms of their names, but I dunno if anyone wants to see the DOME Crashers versus the Werewind Ciamsisn.

For those curious, its pronounced Cee-Um-Sizz-en.

Oh, definitely the Wolves, because I'm biased. XD But in all seriousness, in terms of storyline, the Crashers losing the Riot Ring championship would not only make our heroes more of the underdogs, but also a lot less "perfect" as main characters, thus edging away from a very common cliche, and possibly even subverting them. Director knows how much I love to turn said cliches on their ear. ;D

Also, because I'm too lazy to look it up (and it seems that the info I always need always happens to be one of the few things not on the wiki), is there a name for the championship? I would love to call it the Blood Bowl, but that might lead to all sorts of legal issues. XD

Okay, I rolled the die and got two. (After getting myself, I rolled again.) Its a shame more people didnt stop by to chat about this. The winner in this lottery is Kane. Your credits are now doubled.
