I have re-configured new information last on via VocRecogSys.
ARCHERY: Hawkeye (but who would he compete against?)
Isn't Bullseye suppose to be proficient will any kind of projectile weapon?HIGH/LONG JUMP: tough one, Toad had hopping powers, Speedball bounces, anyone else?
Perhaps Bullseye? Trickshot, Taskmaster
Hulk, Wonderman, and the Thing have all been shown leaping to get around. They could clean up in the medals.VARIOUS RACES AND HURDLES: a marvel race has happened- "Buried Alien" won.
This is a reference to a Quasar issue, where Marvel coped out and had a Flash (DC) analogue jump in and win the raceQuicksilver (when he was X) - any sprinting shit.
Amphibian, Namorita, Tigershark, TritonWRESTLING: Beast
Thor and Collousus would probably beat out Guido. Unless they beat the hell out of him first. :)VARIOUS BALL GAMES (baseball, soccer, basketball, ect.): who would be in the marvel dream team?
I want Stilt-Man as a middle blocker on the volleyball team. Giant Man would be good as an outside hitter (particularly for anyone who remembers the coin-op arcade volleyball game where your team had 5 little guys and one Big Guy :-).
Hulk and Rhino played some baseball.
I don't think you should limit the events to normal ones. I'd like to see events that test the various abilities. I don't know what you would call the events, or what the goals are. Perhaps someone else could come up with that! Here are some of the groupings (feel free to add your own entrants!):
Well you need to name the events, you just take the category and add athalon. such as the electrathalon, magnetathalon, etc.
Storm, Thor, Living Lightning, Electro, Zzzax, ElectronShatterstar - that french thing where they try and stab each otherFirestar, Human Torch, Crystal, Firebird, Firelord, Sunfire, Binary
Firestar doesn't really belong here. She uses 'microwaves' not fire (Earthen or Celestial) I am not sure Sunfire/Binary either?Avalanche, Crystal
Crystal, Meggan
Magma, Pele, Volcana
Dr. Strange, Talisman, Shaman, Moonglow, Agatha Harkness, Scarlet Witch, Clea, Enchantress, Modred, Forge
Magneto, Polaris
Jean Grey, Professor X, Moondragon, Mentor, Psylocke, Emma Frost, Oracle, Cable, Nate Grey, Exodus, maybe Sersi (who says heroes only?)
Mr. Fantastic, Shape
Portal, Nightcrawler, Lila Cheney, Quasar (though would have to be in space)
Quicksand, Sandman
Any other categories I didn't list?
Fencing
I think you mean fencing. Nightcrawler would be better, since I suspect he knows the rules in formal fencing, while Shatterstar wouldn't.
Prof X - Child molesting.
That was submitted by Rob Mclean, he's a troll in racm-x and very profane, disgusting and rude. I include his thoughts though because sometimes has good ideas, its his delivery that is off.JUDO: Kitty Pryde
EQUESTRIAN: Dani Moonstar.
Venom, Spiderman, Carnage,
Swordsman, Black Knight, Nightcrawler, Shatterstar, Deadpool,
Living Laser, Photon
Silver Surfer, Franklin Richards, Proteus, (lets play alter-reality event)
Due to the extensive training all the X-Men get, I wouldn't be at all surprised if many of them could do the decathalon/heptathalon.
Telekinetics would do marvels in archery, shot put, discus, pole vault, high jump, javelin, almost any gymnastics (esp. rings). Swimming would pose a problem for a telekinetic though since if the form of the stroke is off then the swimmer is disqualified. Jean Grey would probably perform well in any of these events (except swimming of course).
Magneto would do well in any riflery event + shot put, discus, javelin, etc . . .
A good telepath could make the judges and audience see him/her perform any feat by manipulating their perception, enabling an accomplished telepath to win any event.
Of course, there should be an Olympic event for looking imposing and menacing. Colossus seems pretty menacing to me, but some of the X-villans would probably beat him out.
Well winter olympics has brutal skaters, maybe they would try to "eliminate" the competition. Thinking of winter olympics, should we get Iceman to supply the winter conditions.
