Waistband Warriors Tournament: Season 2 (Patreon)

As last time, you get to choose the girls that join the Waistband Warriors tournament this time around. The theme this time is "brawlers" and it encompasses any and all girls who aren't afraid to use their fists to fix situations. The 8 girls with the highest score will take part in the tournament. Keep in mind this is multiple choice, so feel free to vote for as many girls as you want!

I also want to announce something special for this tournament: I'm planning for popularity not being the only win condition this time around. The girls will be rated from an in-universe standpoint based on how strong they are, and they will be giving advantages and power ups based on their popularity. I think this system avoids the issue of having the most popular girl win instantly, and it also gives objectively weaker characters a way to defeat their opponents. It also introduces a cool narrative device for me to write around!

But yeah, your votes will now account for 50% of a girl's score. She will be given an advantage or disadvantage depending on her popularity, but in some cases some girls may still win in spite of that. This makes the quality of the stories better and certain matchups more fair, in my opinion. If you have any issues with the system, though, I'll be happy to tweak it or remove it, so please let me know!
