Nominations Clarification Post #3
If you spot something amiss in your fandom - a typo, a duplicate, or another mistake - please let me know here.
New Queries
Added - Metal Gear
Kazuhira Miller/Soviet soldiers
To avoid ambiguity, I will change this to Any Soviet Soldier(s) unless the nominator requests specific named characters or a specific number.
Added - The Legend of Zelda & Related Fandoms
Link/Monsters
To avoid ambiguity, I will change this to Any Monster(s) unless the nominator requests specific characters/species or a specific number.
Added - Bloodborne (Video Game)Added - Don't Starve
The Ancients & None
It looks like The Ancients are a group. To avoid ambiguity, this will need to be changed to either Any of The Ancients or specific named characters. If the nominator doesn't give me a preference I'll do the former.
Added - Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
Enforcers/Vi (Arcane: LoL), Stillwater Guards/Vi (Arcane: LoL), Stillwater Inmates/Vi (Arcane: LoL)
To avoid ambiguity, I'll be changing these group nominations to the former Any Enforcer(s), etc, unless the nominator requests specific characters, a specific number, or something else.
Added - Genshin Impact (Video Game)
Fatui Members/Zhongli (Genshin Impact)
Fatui Members is a group nomination. To avoid ambiguity in matching, I'll need to convert this to either Any Fatui Member(s) or a specific list of characters. If I don't receive clarification, I'll do the former.
Added - Ancient Greek Religion & Lore
Penelope/Suitors (Ancient Greek)
To avoid ambiguity about which characters are being nominated, I'll need to change this to either Any Suitor(s) or specific named characters. If I don't receive clarification, I'll do the first.
Dionysus/Pirates
As above, I would like to change this to Any Pirate(s) unless the nominator wants specific characters or a specific number, to avoid ambiguity.
Added - Crimson Peak (2015)
Lucille Sharpe/Thomas's Ex-Wives (Crimson Peak)
To avoid ambiguity about which characters are required, I'll need to change this to Any of Thomas's Ex-Wive(s) or a list of specific named characters. If I don't receive clarification, I'll do the former.
Added - The Mechanisms (Band)
The Mechanisms Ensemble/The Mechanisms Ensemble
I'm not completely sure I understand what the nominator was going for here. If you're aiming for a group relationship scenario, that should be put through as either The Mechanisms Ensemble Member/The Mechanisms Ensemble Member/The Mechanism Ensemble Member(s) to require at least three participants, or a pairing listing all of the members you would like required by name. If I don't receive clarification I'll do the former.
Crossover Fandom
Ruben "Ruvik" Victoriano/Val (Outlast)
It looks like Ruben "Ruvik" Victoriano is a character from The Evil Within. Unless the nominator comes forward to tell me they wanted a different fandom, I'll add that fandom and approve this.
Devil May Cry
Demons/Nero (Devil May Cry)
It looks like demons are a group of monsters in Devil May Cry. I'd like to approve this in the format Nero/Any Demon(s) and will do that if I don't receive clarification. If the nominator would prefer to require multiple demons, Nero/Any Demon/Any Demon(s) is also possible, or another format.
Squid Game (TV 2021)
Hwang Inho | Front Man & VIP Ensemble (Squid Game)
This is another nomination including an entire group. To avoid ambiguity in which characters are required, I'll need to approve this as either Any VIP Ensemble Member(s) or a list of specific character names. If the nominator doesn't come forward, I'll do the former.
Stargate Atlantis
Atlantis/John Sheppard (SGA)
As far as I can tell, Atlantis is a setting without self-awareness in canon, not a character. If the nominator would like to make a case for Atlantis being an eligible character, they can do so here. Otherwise I'll reject this pairing.
Transformers: Cyberverse
Starscream & Quintessons
As far as I can tell, Quintessons are a species in canon, not a specific character. I'd like to approve this as Starscream & Any Quintesson(s), and will do that if I don't receive clarification. If the nominator would like to require more than one Quintesson with the format Starscream & Any Quintesson & Any Quintesson(s), let me know.
Old Queries
The Boys (TV 2019)
Hughie Campbell & The Boys Ensemble
Because a general group name is ambiguous, I'll need to either approve this as Any Member(s) of The Boys, or the specific characters you were thinking of. If the nominator doesn't give me a preference, I'll do the former.
Encanto (2021)
Bruno Madrigal & Everyone
If the nominator could let me know their preference and what group or characters they had in mind, I'll approve this nomination with either those characters, or "Any [group]." Otherwise, I will reject it.
