CUJO TAKES A BITE OUT OF THE WEREWOLF AND QUALIFIES IN OUR FIRST CRUSHING VICTORY!

Now I wouldn't normally do this but since I'm somewhat impaired due to being new and my posts aren't always gonna appear when I post em up. I'm gonna start doing two matches in one post from now on.

I'd usually just stick to one match up in one post but given the circumstances I think we can put two matches in a post.

Now remember Match 4 and 5 are totally separate from one another.


Round 1

Match 4

Bag of Bones

Well I was born in a small town

Oh, those small communities

Oh Johnny Mellencamp how right you were

Under your bed
Hello!

New member here and big fan of King as well as many other authors. It is great to meet everyone! :D

I signed up cause well I'm a fan but also I was recently playing a sort of voting game on another forum. The topic involved SK works so I figured I'd bring it here and see if it drew any interest.

I'll list two works by Stephen King and the first to five votes wins over the other. We will do it tournament style with rounds and the last thing standing by Stephen King will be the winner. Hopefully we have enough people for this and also I use the word 'thing' because we aren't just going by books. You should judge all pieces listed based on book first and foremost but if you haven't read the book you have permission to use the movie or miniseries in its place while voting. I'd of usually just made it book but King has a large LARGE body of work and wanted everyone included who could be even you hadn't read the book.

Now note this is only for fun of course and this was a game I did on another forum, where these sorts of things are common. So very much apologize if its not welcomed here or seems pointless but wanted to try it on a site that had more King fans and give it a shot!

Very curious about the results on which would be the last book standing.

The Shining

VS

Pet Sematary

So which ever book has the first five votes from you all (other members of the site) it qualify to the next round.


Man, I'm way too drunk to know what yer talkin about right now. But I'm gonna pick The Shining, just because that weird old cover.l

I'm still not on to the way this works either.
Choose the book you like from each match up. The winners will pop up again in future rounds for new match ups.

Thanks Doc!

That sums it pretty great!

And Not Nadine apologies if the rules are confusing. If you find the rules complicated or the way I explained confusing just follow along best ya can and things will become more clear probably as we go along. :D
