So, this is a concept I saw/thunk up, but it's pretty legit and I was thinking, we should talk about it.
Let's say there were the Fandom Games-Like the Hunger games, but instead of districts with people from the districts, you have fandoms.
So, each fandom is a district and there are two people from the Fandom.
Pretty cool as it is, huh?
Well, conversation, piece. Which Fandom would win? O.O

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) | 7675 comments LORD OF THE RINGS AND THE HOBBIT WOULD WIN. Hands down. No argument about it >:D

What happens when you're from more than one fandom? D:


message 3: by [deleted user] (new)

Your core fandom. :)

I don't know about that. How into the fandom scene are you, Hobbit? I mean, The supernatural fandom is kind of nuts and the Doctor Who fandom is pretty smart, so recourceful.

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) | 7675 comments What do you mean? o: xD I'd be half SH and half LOTR D:


message 5: by [deleted user] (new)

But you haven't read all the Sherlock Holmes books, have you? Then you are clearly more loyal to Lord of the Rings. :)

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) | 7675 comments Not yet 3: Lol. True. But they're pretty even ... urgh it's so hard xD. But what would you be? lol You'd be torn between Dr. Who and Harry Potter and Sherlock ... (:


message 7: by [deleted user] (new)

You're right. Doctor Who or Harry Potter for sure...Uhm...
*Starts to sob*

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) | 7675 comments ^^ I feel your pain.

Sinda Quietus (superwholockedtrekacrossthestars) | 2846 comments Tie between Doctor Who and Star Trek for me as to what my core fandom is. Except Star Trek isn't on here. Oh well.


message 10: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh, sorry. >.< I'm not a Trekkie so I wouldn't be able to make the topics.


message 11: by Ciara (new)

Ciara  | 144 comments I'd say Harry Potter. THEY HAVE MAGIC. And Hermione.


message 12: by [deleted user] (new)

But most of us in the fandom are muggles. D:


message 13: by Ciara (new)

Ciara  | 144 comments Unfortunately :( But I guess there are other fandoms! (Just not Harry Potter...)


message 14: by [deleted user] (new)

I think Harry Potter could win....Not sure. Sherlock fandom? Probably not, but maybe.


message 15: by Ciara (new)

Ciara  | 144 comments I think Harry Potter would have a good chance :)
Sherlock... not so much. It's awesome but I don't think Sherlock could beat Hermione!


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

Well these are the fandoms. Hermione isn't in the fandom. ;) Neither is Sherlock. ;)


message 17: by Ciara (new)

Ciara  | 144 comments True, true :)


message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

Sooo...As far as fandoms go.....Probably....Gah, I don't know!! I'm thinking Harry Potter...


message 19: by johanna (jo), Marchioness Hobbit (new)

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) | 7675 comments LOTR would win hands down, I tell you!! -_-

Fandom Hunger Games
Hello everyone! So I was just looking at fandomhungergames.tumblr.com (check it out!) and it got me thinking: what if people from each Fandom were sent in as tributes in the Hunger Games?

I feel like the actual Hunger Games fandom would most likely win because it’s their thing (assuming no one is allowed any magic or special powers in the Arena).

The Supernaturalites would be the Careers because they’ve been training their whole lives to hunt down and kill various things.

The Sherlockians I see as being kind of Foxface-like. They wouldn’t say much and aren’t especially physically strong, but they’re extremely smart.

The Whovians I think would do decently, but their downfall would be that they’re too nice. They wouldn’t want to kill anyone so instead people would kill them.

The Homestuck fandom I see as being basically the District Three of the whole thing. They’d be adept with technology and smart, but I’m not sure if they could survive an outright attack.

The Potterheads, without their wands, would not be able to do any magic (except for non-verbal spells, but I’m not sure how many people have actually mastered that) so I’m afraid they might be first day deaths.

The Merlin Fandom would probably do okay since they have a good amount of weapons and fighting experience, but, again, with no magic, I don’t see them winning. They’d probably make it into the top five or so though.

The LOTR fandom would do really well. I think they would be among the final two or three fandoms standing.

The Hetalians I do not see as getting especially far. They have some strengths, but they also have some obvious weaknesses. However, if they had, let’s say, Russia and Germany, in the Arena, that might be a different story.

Avatar would do decently, but without their elemental powers, I can see them dying about halfway through.

The Gleeks would be Cornucopia deaths. I am very sorry about this, but I don’t think they can sing their way out of this one.

Also, Disney wouldn’t make it too far…

The Oncers, without their magic, I think woud survive the first day because they do have SOME fighting experience, but I don’t think they could last against some of the more prepared fandoms.

I am sorry if I insulted your fandom here, it was unintentional. I should probably go do my history homework now…


Ahem, did you notice the LOTR part? If I remember correctly, they said that it would DO REALLY WELL. THAT IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT.


message 23: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm not sure whether to go for the Percy Jackson fandom or the Harry Potter fandom. Or the Doctor Who fandom. Or the Merlin fandom. Aargh, too hard to decide!


message 24: by Sinda (new)

Sinda Quietus (superwholockedtrekacrossthestars) | 2846 comments Doctor Who or Sherlock fandom for me, seeing as there's no Star Trek. ARGH I NEED TO STOP TALKING ABOUT STAR TREK but I can't okay.


message 25: by [deleted user] (new)

Percy Jackson would probably do pretty well. They're trained to fight.
But yeah, LOTR would probably win in an actual fight to the death. In other areas they'd lose, but for a fight, they'd win.

The Gleeks would die immediately.


message 26: by [deleted user] (new)

I'd never seen that on Tumblr. O.O Woah, I'm amazing. I just thought of it. ^^

I don't disagree that the LotR fandom would do great. I'm just not sure. LotR and Harry Potter are pretty good, because I consider them generally more...athletic. It's a stererotype, but Doctor Who and Sherlock fandoms do watch a lot of TV.


message 27: by Maggie (new)

Maggie (anonymouswizard) The Gleeks could possibly win. They might stay around long enough to annoy everyone to death :)

Hahaha. Yush, LOTR and Harry Potter fans (and PJOs) would be out there battling to the death while the Whovians and Sherlocked-people sit inside re-watching their favourite episodes.

But there's one thing -- when you say Sherlockian, do you mean Sherlockian as in, fan of Sherlock Holmes in general, or just the TV show? Because you might want to remember that Sherlock Holmes (both in Sherlock BBC and other film adaptions/the books, I believe) was actually very good at the self-defence side of it. So maybe the Sherlockians would pose more of a problem than you realize: they'd be quick at working out who killed who, anyway.


message 29: by [deleted user] (new)

Yup, kind of. >.<

Yes. If you're a fan of old Sherlock, than there's a very good chance that you're a brilliant mind. The TV show, maybe less.


message 30: by johanna (jo), Marchioness Hobbit (new)

johanna (jo) (johannad_m) | 7675 comments Haha. So I guess there'd be a mixture in that fandom :) Maybe they all work together :P


message 31: by [deleted user] (new)

Yep! Perhaps, that could do some good.


message 32: by Rachel (new)

Rachel (RachelRochelleRolo) | 23 comments HARRY POTTER wold win! They would just avadacadava everyone or crucio them to kill everyone.

Rachel (RachelRochelleRolo) | 23 comments Dr who is amazing but the fandom that will wincwill be twilight. Because everytime they are in trouble someone just shouts ' look its EDWARD CULLEN,(or) JACOB BLACK" and the attacker would be crushed by screaming 14 year old girls
