This round is now over! The next thread can be found here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=311064)!
Hello, OOTS Fans! And Welcome to the FAVORITE ORDER OF THE STICK QUOTE TOURNAMENT!
In this thread, winners from round 1 will face off against one another for a shot at the win!
In this tournament, quotes which won nominations here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=302659) and here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=303560) will compete to determine the all-time* favorite OOTS quote as chosen by you, the fans!
*Well, all-time until someone else decides to redo this tournament a while on down the road.
RULES:
1. In each thread, I will post four matchups. You may vote for ONE quote in EACH matchup. Later threads will have fewer matchups as the tournament nears its conclusion.
2. If your quote loses, never fear! This is a double elimination tournament. A quote's first loss will move it to a losers' bracket, where if it beats the other quotes there it may eventually move on up as far as third place.
3. Voting for this round will conclude at 9PM EDT on Thursday, October 24th. I will generally give a week for all rounds, unless it becomes clear that no one is voting for the last few days.
The round number is just that. The lowercase letter indicates what part of the round it is. The (W) or (L) indicates whether the round is for the winners' or losers' bracket. I may drop that distinction later on and run both in one thread.
So, without further ado, here are the matchups:
1. :thog: "not nale, not-nale. thog help nale nail not-nale, not nale. and thog knot not-nale while nale nail not-nale. nale, not not-nale, now nail not-nale by leaving not-nale, not nale, in jail." (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0367.html)
vs.
4. :xykon: "Hey, look, I just regenerated a finger. Guess which one." (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0191.html)
5. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/redxiv/kazumiwedding.gif "Why should I care how many people I have to kill? I can just make MORE in my TUMMY!" (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0587.html)

4. :xykon: "Hey, look, I just regenerated a finger. Guess which one." (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0191.html) - I'm not a fan of puns, generally
8. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a311/estelindis/hinjo.gif "I'll stand between any two murderers I wish, thanks." (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0409.html) - This was probably Hinjo's best moment.
11. http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g68/Cats_Are_Aliens/Banners/Tarquin.png You can't make an omelette without ruthlessly crushing dozens of eggs beneath your steel boot and then publicly disemboweling the chickens that laid them as a warning to others. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0760.html) - Because Xykon's speech about power kind of failed on some parts.
13. http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i294/trytoguess/Shojo.png "Great idea! Here, I'll have my best wizard teleport you. 'Sure thing Lord Shojo! Teleport!' Oh look at that, it didn't work." (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0379.html) - It's really funny!

As usual, a single elimination one vs one match system produces a lot of unworthy winners and worthy losers due to flukes in pairings.

As usual, a single elimination one vs one match system produces a lot of unworthy winners and worthy losers due to flukes in pairings.
Except this isn't single elimination. Every quote that loses a matchup will move to the loser's bracket, and won't be dropped until it loses there as well.

Ironically, the Thog quote is more clever than the Xykon.

Just about absurdist.

Classic. Also, "can't make an omelet" jokes are a dime a dozen.

8. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a311/estelindis/hinjo.gif beat 5. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/redxiv/kazumiwedding.gif 19-17

13. http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i294/trytoguess/Shojo.png beat 15. :xykon: 22-16
So quotes 1, 8, 10, and 13 will continue, while quotes 4, 5, 11, and 15 will move to the loser's bracket.
