I'm sorry to see Mirror Master I go. I consider him the preeminent Barry Allen Flash villain and the most prominent of the pre-Crisis Rogues. I've never understood how such a major villain got such an unfitting, blink-and-you'll-miss-it death in Crisis.

Votes & Commentary:

Abra Kadabra...10 (Love an evil mustache.)
Captain Cold...1 (Same character archetype as Deadshot [for people who remember my criticism of him in 'Batman Villains Idol']. Not a fan).
Golden Glider...10 (For the longest time she was the ONLY female Flash villain. Loved her motivations too.)
Gorilla Grodd...1 (Respect him but he just doesn't excite me. Love Solovar and Gorilla City though.)
Magenta...1 (Not a Flash villain IMO.)
Mirror Master II...1 (I rarely prefer a legacy character to the original.)
Peek-a-Boo...1 (Never read her in anything. Very surprised she's still here. She seems fun though.)
Pied Piper...1 (I like him but I like others more.)
Professor Zoom...10 (Great costume and star of some great stories.)
Rainbow Raider...10 (What's not to love?!?)
The Shade...1 (Not a Flash villain IMO.)
The Thinker (Golden Age)...1 (Not a Flash villain IMO.)
The Top...10 (He intrigues me. Major character deaths were so rare pre-Crisis that I'm very fascinated by all those who did die.)
The Turtle (Golden Age)...1 (Not super familiar with this character.)
Trickster I...10 (Probably one of the least flashy Rogues, ironically. Has had some really good stories but none have them have been too famous. I like quiet achievers.)
Weather Wizard...10 (Amazing collar! I think he might have been one of the first Flash villains I read about too.)

As they say, apes sell more comics and Gorilla Grodd is no exception.

Gorilla Grodd 59 100%
Trickster I 54 92%
Pied Piper 53 90%
The Shade 53 90%

Professor Zoom 52 88%
Captain Cold 49 83%
Golden Glider 48 81%

Abra Kadabra 43 73%
Weather Wizard 43 73%
Magenta 42 71%
Rainbow Raider 42 71%


Almost Eliminated
Mirror Master II 37 63%
The Thinker (Golden Age) 37 63%
The Top 36 61%

Eliminated
Peek-a-Boo 33 56%
The Turtle (Golden Age) 30 51%


So we have a total of 14 characters remaining. I will admit to wishing it was uneven numbers so we could start the Wild Card Round.

Yay Grodd! Yay Piper!

Poor Peek-a-Boo, but then I think she would make a better supporting character than a full villain

I'm sure you've explained it at some point, Emily, but can I please ask how the percentage works?

I used to think that 100% meant that a character had gotten the maximum number of points, but that's obviously not the case.

Thanks.

I thought so too. Maybe it is the percentage of the total number of points players gave during the round.

My guess is, Emily adds the total number of points each player gives..like if I gave 10 points each o 5 characters, my total is 50 points.

But then that would not make sense either...

I adopted the method that RexFactor Podcast uses to calculate their Reign scores; they divide the number of years by that of the longest living monarch ((at the time it was Queen Victoria). So, yes, 100% is the one with the most amount of points from that round. I divide the rest of the scores against the character who has the most points per round.

Here is how I do it:

1) I make a column for each player and write the points they voted for. If there are any errors, it probably comes from this process, because if I miss one number or enter one incorrectly, then the whole chain can be thrown off.

2) I AutoSum all the results (I use Excel).

3) I hide all the data I used to get the AutoSums.

4) I Filter the scores/characters from highest to lowest.

5) I copy and paste that to here and add all the colors.

Thanks Emily. That's an interesting calculation method and I'm still not sure I fully understand it, but that's probably more due to me being mathematically-challenged than anything to do with your explanation.

I like how this method takes into account how far away each character is from the one who got the most points. It is not just a straight ranking thing.

Thank you all for your compliments and participation. I could not have done it without your help. I am happy with the turnout, and hope you will all be here when the LSV Idol starts in May. Then we are going to have a Spider-Villain Idol in the summer so I can keep my sanity...it is a lot easier to create Marvel-based games because they have more information available online.

I have decided that once we have less than 10 players, we will do a Wildcard Round irregardless if whether or not we have uneven numbers.
