NOTE: RULESET IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE
Again, once a character gets 20 votes, the person who made the 20th vote for that character will be able to write an AP description of that character. The post must have the following:
All of this can be down in a paragraph or two, but it does not need to be made immediately with the 20th vote (you must update the ranked list, however). This will hopefully encourage everyone to write some AP stories that we can all eventually see and enjoy.
During each round, once there's a ranking list for the round, posts should be stylized like this (though few minor variations can be done on the separation of each area). Next to each ranking is the person who did the 20th vote for that character (if you cast the 20th vote for that character, please put your username). The AP part of the layout will only be used by whoever does the 20th vote for a character (the person must bold the ranking that they're writing for, otherwise, the ranking won't be bold), and won't be used by anyone else. Please note that I'm using this first round as an example for this post layout (the character list at the bottom is used for an example for the layout, please use the current list for now on.
Current Ranking:
1st Place: Claire Bennet (youthdrain)

3rd Place: Kitty Pryde/Shadowcat (chronoeclipse)

Rules
- Each person votes for one character per post (each person can vote after 2 hours of their last post, though no double posting (posting and voting within the 2 hours).
- Once a character gets 20 votes, they will be placed on the rank list (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc).
- The person who does the 20th vote for a character gets to write their own AP description for that character.
- Each round lasts until there are 5 characters with 20 votes each.
- The person who gets the 20th vote for the 5th place character can make a new list of characters.
- Only characters that haven't been AP in their respective universes can be used for this game.
- Characters from multiple universes can be used (ex. Jean Grey from the comics and Jean Grey from the X-Men movies/cartoons can be used). However, they can't appear in the same list, must be identified by their respective universe (see example list below), and must be separated out by at least 2 rounds.
- Characters used in a round, but not in the ranked list, can't be used for at least 2 rounds.
- Lists must have between 10 and 15 characters per round.
- Characters from winning (ranking) lists can't be used for at least 8 rounds.
AP Description
Again, once a character gets 20 votes, the person who made the 20th vote for that character will be able to write an AP description of that character. The post must have the following:
- The character's age: The top age that is allowed here is 110 (as some centenarians are still active). However, immortal characters can be older, but must appear to be AP.
- The character's physical description: (what they're wearing, how they look, etc.).
- The character's health problems (if they're being OA AP): Do they use a mobility aide (wheelchair, walker, cane) to get around, do they wear glasses and hearing aids, do they shake, etc? Are they senile?
- The character's mental description: Are they still mentally the same age as they are in their respective universes, or is their mentality the same as their physical age (ex. Penny Hofstadter is physically 89, but she still mentally in her 30s, or is she mentally 89)?
- How they were AP: Did they age naturally, were they aged through magic, or by technology? If the character's immortal or has an extended longevity, did they lose their immortality/extended longevity? If so, how?
- The character's surroundings/the setting: Where does the character live (house, apartment, nursing home (if they're OA AP)? What are they doing (are they going to the store, going to the mall, visiting a friend, etc)?
All of this can be down in a paragraph or two, but it does not need to be made immediately with the 20th vote (you must update the ranked list, however). This will hopefully encourage everyone to write some AP stories that we can all eventually see and enjoy.

The AP part of the layout will only be used by whoever does the 20th vote for a character (the person must bold the ranking that they're writing for, otherwise, the ranking won't be bold), and won't be used by anyone else.
