"Ask not what Spiral Mountain can do for you; ask what you can do for Spiral Mountain."
So current standings on the star road roster, ranked in order of winner to loser:

The following 16 are in
king of all cosmos (46)
travis touchdown (25)
edgeworth (22)
megaman x (20)
frog (19)
pepsiman (19)
scrooge mcduck (19)
chop chop master onion (17)
terry bogard (16)
lechuck (16)
geese howard (16)
prof oak (15)
illidan stormrage (15)
strong bad (15)
raziel (12)
guybrush (10)


And these 9 are out
sigma (8)
johnny cage (8)
homestar runner (6)
dirk the daring (5)
trip (5)
thrall (5)
serge (4)
magus (4)
arthur (2)


So if you're a Homestar Runner fan and haven't voted yet, get in there and represent. There's still plenty if time for the rankings to change, although at this point the only ones who are likely to be affected are the ones either side of the boundary between winner and loser

Uglier on the inside.

My concern is about this format is that if he wins a 16-man KotR, the winner is going to be pretty good. Probably top-tier. Adding a mostly random top-tier could be interesting, but it could end up Barkley-ing, where he just walks in, isn't very interesting, and wins everything.

I'm looking at you Illidan and Raziel.

I wonder if Bazza will add more than one based on how over some of them get. King of Carlos is already so fuckin' over that it's amazing he hasn't entered VGCW already

He wouldn't even be hard to write for, just add a record scratch sound when he talks and get him to say complete nonsensical things that just barely relate to the topic at hand

Yo I'm going to be getting the game for the PS3 soon and am going to do a mixed universe of actual roster and some japanese wrestledudes and fictional characters, Kiryu would work perfectly. Please upload him!

Yeah, I'm actually kind of surprised that Carlos is even valid for this thing. He's SNS's best and I figured he'd be the next SNST call-up. Whoever beats him is getting instant Dan heat.

Star Road is a 16-man King of the Ring contest where fans submit their own CAWs and people vote to decide which ones will compete. The winner of the tournament will be inducted into VGCW proper. You can keep track of the voting here.

So about that phantom limb glitch, is it possible to have only one missing arm or is there forced symmetry? Because if you can just remove a character's right arm and no one's made Baiken for WVGCW yet, that's a travesty.

I hope we get at least one wrestler with missing limbs just in case that bug ever gets fixed and Homestar Runner suddenly gets freaky man arms.

I'm gonna be really bummed out if King of Cosmos doesn't win Star Road, but at the same time I really want Edgeworth to get in VGCW so he can snap Phoenix out of it and form the greatest tag team.

Bazza needs to play AA5. All the character arcs fit wonderfully into the insanity of VGCW.

I really hope at the very least one of the two gets into the tourney. I don't care if they win, I just want to see them fight. Same with Trip.

"Ask not what Spiral Mountain can do for you; ask what you can do for Spiral Mountain."
Well homestar's been slowly climbing the ranks, but he'd have to overtakes sigma, johnny cage and guybrush in order to get into the 16 winners.

Strong bad has also been climbing the ranks, but he's 13th from top so unless he drops 4 places he'll keep hold of his position in the competition

code:
winners:
king of all cosmos	54
travis touchdown	32
scrooge mcduck		26
lechuck			23
edgeworth		22
pepsiman		22
megaman x		22
chop chop master onion	21

terry bogard		20
geese howard		20
prof oak		19
strong bad		19
raziel			17
illidan stormrage	15

losers:

johnny cage		10
homestar runner		7
trip			6
magus			6
dirk the daring		5
thrall			5
serge			4
