Forum:Double-Elimination Orders

Forum: Proposals > Double-Elimination Orders

Hi, there. I'm TDIFan13. Lately, I've noticed a fair amount of confusion concerning double-eliminations; many are confused to which contestant was technically eliminated from their respective season first. Currently, there are no specific rankings. If two characters are eliminated in the semi-finals, their rankings will read "3rd/4th", which I find is vastly unprofessional and disorganized.

Thus, I have a proposition; perhaps, we can arrange the character's eliminations in order of who left the competition first. For example, in Total Drama Action, after Bridgette and Geoff were eliminated, they both fell into the lame-o-sine. Technically, however, Geoff entered first, and should be credited as the recipient of seventeenth place. Let me know what you think.

Additionally, I will gladly answer any comments, questions, or concerns regarding this proposal. I'm only trying to make the wiki more organized. Thanks. --TDIFan13 ^{(My Talk and My Contributions!)} 03:40, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

This vote ends on August 25, 2011.

This proposal is now closed. Thank you for voting!

Support

1. I support this idea. It seems rational and much more organized than our current ranking system; thus, instead of Courtney receiving "3rd/4th" place, she'll be awarded with fourth place due to being in the lame-o-sine a good couple minutes before Owen entered. --TDIFan13 ^{(My Talk and My Contributions!)} 03:40, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

7. I definitly agreed with that. I always said that like Geoff was eliminated first by Chris's rules, since he entered first to the lame-o-sine, and also, what are we going to do about Courtney/Blaineley. One Bar is great, but two Bars are just awesome!

8. I was thinking the same thing. @BarBar, I think Blaineley was eliminated first because I was watching the episode, and it looks like Blaineley was in front of Courtney and fell like an inch farther than Courtney. Ann Marie is second best, after LeShawna 03:24, August 15, 2011 (UTC)
9. I'll support just to finally get rid of the whole 4th/3rd crap with Courtney & Owen. ChrisMcLeanFan1 14:16, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Oppose

1. Entering the lame-o-sine/taking the drop of shame first doesn't determined your official ranking in the game. Bridgette and Geoff were eliminated at the same time in TDA, same with Blaineley and Courtney in TDWT. It's like saying "Courtney is pushed off the plane first, she's 7th. Blaineley, you're 6th." However, Courtney was eliminated before Owen. ♥Mikey★^*~talk*~♥_*~Edits*~ 03:42, August 12, 2011 (UTC)
2. Really, there's nothing wrong with ending in a tie. The only double eliminations that would need seperate places are Tog Dog, Jamaica Me Sweat, and Hawaiian Punch. Those three had the contestants eliminated at different times, not at once. TDA15 ^{talks and edits} 04:02, August 12, 2011 (UTC)
3. It should be kept the same for Bridgette/Geoff and Courtney/Blaineley's case because they were announced to have been eliminated at the exact same time. Doesn't matter if one left a second before the other. It should be different for episodes like Top Dog, Jamaica, and Hawaiian Punch and such.-- Mygeto ^{likes to STEAL your edits} 06:02, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

8. Above...Courtney WAS eliminated before Owen though -w- Aimers^talk 02:31, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
9. I agree with above. Some episodes where Courtney was eliminated then Owen was fired. Also when Izzy was taken out, then DJ was eliminated. Those should be Courtney 4th, Owen 5th but not Geoff/Bridgette and Courtney/Blaineley. Wolverine1717 14:33, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
10. Yeah, I'd say Bridgette/Geoff and Courtney/Blaineley were eliminated together. However, I'm sick of people saying Courtney/Owen were eliminated together. Owen beat Courtney in TDA by a good 14 seconds. Fredthefish. Hey, who is this Eva person? 01:43, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
11. Bridgette/Geoff and Blaineley/Courtney are eliminated toghether, and they share the same rank. But the others are: Courtney is 4th and Owen is 3rd, Izzy is 13th and DJ is 12th, Cody is 3rd and Alejandro/Heather are 2nd. End of case. Bruno is my name! Talk!

12. Like what TDA15 said, it doesnt matter who was pushed first in the limo or out the plane because they were ELIMINATED. kinda like izzy on TDI when she said she was on the island the whole time even though she was eliminated. so for example you can stay where the game is being played but still not have to take the limo/drop even when your eliminated --Beanme100

16. Since when is a slash unprofessional? Nevermind. Anyway, I agree with the Oppose comments more. Courtney and Blaineley were announed both eliminated by Chris at the same time. That means Blaineley can have 7th place and Courtney can have 6th, but that also means Blaineley can have 6th place whle Courtney has 7th. Bridgette can hold both last and second-to-last place, same with Geoff. That's what the 6th/7th slash thing means. :) --"Look, Wings!" ♥Yes, Gwen, wings are way more important.♥ 19:53, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

TDA15 fails in a vote once again, Newfoundland was a non-elimination episode. TDAddict - ^{You know who he is, and don't forget it.} 06:12, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

DJ's sanity was eliminated in that episode, along with all of the fish Al tried to put symbols on, so STFU. >.> TDA15 ^{talks and edits} 06:16, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

However, both TDA15 and Mygeto brought up interesting points. While I personally disagree on Geoff and Bridgette's elimination (since Geoff got in the Limo first), how do we handle Courtney and Blaineley's eliminations? They were pretty much simultaneous. ._. --"Ezekiel! What's up, man?" "I think I see a bird!" 23:32, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

Er, Courtney was technically pushed out first. --TDIFan13 ^{(My Talk and My Contributions!)} 05:25, August 13, 2011 (UTC)

Let me just say this: In the Geoff-Bridgette elimination and Courtney-Blaineley elimination, both contestants were eliminated at the same time. Whether or not one person got into the Lame-o-sine or was pushed off the plane really doesn't matter. TDA15 ^{talks and edits} 03:32, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Exactly. When Chris stated they were eliminated, that was when they were off the show and when they received their place. Not at the time they exited.-- Mygeto ^{likes to STEAL your edits} 03:48, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

^^^^^ This is why you're my favorite male user, Mygeto. ♥Mikey★^*~talk*~♥_*~Edits*~ 03:49, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Guys, I just want to point out that Heather is already considered the runner-up. Nowhere does it state that she and Cody tied for third place; that would be ridiculous. --TDIFan13 ^{(My Talk and My Contributions!)} 05:28, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Just using "Hawaiian Punch" as an example of two eliminations that were done in the same episode, and that were separate.-- Mygeto ^{likes to STEAL your edits} 21:45, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, I wasn't referring to you. I knew you were using it as an example. I was pointing out that some users thought that Heather and Cody both shared third place. o_o --TDIFan13 ^{(My Talk and My Contributions!)} 22:26, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, aight.-- Mygeto ^{likes to STEAL your edits} 22:35, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

I think we can all agree that Courtney is 4th and Owen is 3rd. ♥Mikey★^*~talk*~♥_*~Edits*~ 14:32, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Agreeing with Mikey, We knew about Court's elimination in TDA before we knew about Owen's, so technically, TDA's final 3 was Duncan, Beth, and Owen. The Total Drama Expert has spoken! Talk to me here! I don't bite! ^{...sometimes...} 22:59, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Courtney/Owen, DJ/Izzy, and Cody/Heather can easily be separated, but Geoff/Bridgette and Courtney/Blaineley should remain. ~ Kgman04! ♪ _Talk! ♫ ^Contribs! 15:11, August 18, 2011 (UTC)

I already took care of most of that. :( ♥Mikey★ 21:22, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

I don't think it really matters, because in 3 days we're gonna be going with the "who got into the lame-o-sone/who got pushed off the plane first" theory, sadly. TDA15 ^{talks and edits} 18:50, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

Just pointing out to everyone that Blaineley and Courtney were pushed out of the place at the same time and even if you pause it, you can see that they're pushed out at the same time. So their ranking is 7th/6th. ♥Mikey★ 18:56, August 22, 2011 (UTC)

What Kgman04 and TDA15 said. I sadly don't get this at all. :( --"Look, Wings!" ♥Yes, Gwen, wings are way more important.♥ 19:58, August 22, 2011 (UTC)
