Week V: Thwomp vs. Whomp
{| style ="width: 100%;" Welcome to the Glitz Pit, the only place in the Mushroom Kingdom where violence is both free and encouraged! This week, we have two rocks to fight each other! It's going to be a long battle, so pull up a chair.

In the blue corner, we have a large, spiky chunk of rock that loves poking fun at gravity. Somehow able to turn gravity back on whenever it wants to crush its foes. '''This... is... TTTTTHHHHHWOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMPPPPPPP!!'''

And in the grey corner, we have a big, rectangular-shaped rock that will crush its foes if it were to trip. '''This... is.... WHHHHOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMPPPPPPPPPP!!'''

Votes for Thwomp

 * 1) Although I much rather prefer them when they were blue squares, my vote goes to the Thwomp. T h e Mask-Mimic.gif ™  22:07, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) They got a lot of determination to try to continually hit Mario by staying in one spot in hopes of crushing him. -  McGillivray  227  00:04, April 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) Alright. Here are my reasons: 1. Thwomp is usually invincible, while Whomp is defeated by Mario's butt. Plus, Thwomps can have spikes so sometimes even touching them hurts Mario. Only the Starman/Rainbow Star can kill Thwomps, and sometimes they don't (like in the 3D games). 2. Sure, Whomps can walk around, but that space between their legs makes it easy to escape. Thwomps don't have it, so it isn't. 3. Thwomps are placed better. Usually Mario can't walk around them. Whomps usually have a large area where they walk, making it easy to just get out of the way or go between the legs. 4. Thwomps fall faster. -- Deku  Stick   Master  01:30, April 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) Yeah I would definitely rather go for this guy. The other dude just looks like he's stupid... literally... --Rainbowroad6w 14:37, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

Votes for Whomp

 * 1) It's rumored/hinted that they built the Mushroom Kingdom, and everyone is raciest to them by making them into concrete and ground pounding them in the back. Therefore, I feel sorry for them and an urge to vote for them. Enough said. All Thwomp does is float in the air and smash whatever goes under him.  Wind   Mage   Master  23:50, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Hrmm. Whomps are cooller than thowmp. Okay, here's how a battle will go down. The Thwomp will rise into the air. The Whomp will try to squish it because he's kinda dumb. Then the Thwomp smashes down and kills the Whomp. However, the Whomp is way cooler because he's hilarious. I love Whomps and I think, even though everyione seems to vote on Throwmp, he should win. Wattz2000 14:41, April 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) Because Thwomps lack feet and hands. Whomps don't. Jello Rabbit 19:23, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

In the pink corner, we have Fawful's faithful lackey. He is quite lacking in brains, but makes up for it in brawn. He enjoys using iron balls as weapons, and has a very strange speech pattern. '''This... is... MIDBUUUUUS!'''

In the brown corner, we have the super-strong minion of Count Bleck, who speaks with a Scottish accent. He fights against Mario and his friends, but in the end saves his former enemies from being crushed. '''This... is... O' CHUUUUUNKS!!'''

 * 1) SUPER GREAT RUTHLESS WONDER HEAVY IRON BALL! I HAVE NO TASTE! This guy is almost as hilarious as Fawful. -- Deku  Stick   Master  23:46, April 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, was one of the best Mario games I've played. Maybe even the best RPG I've played. And Midbus could easily beat O'Chunks, he's Bowser's rival, and has a huge ball & chain.  Wind   Mage   Master  23:51, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

 * 2) Yup...I love Paper Mario so I gonna vote this guy. Since Super Paper Mario is the best for villians, although O' Chunks is ranked #4 out of all of them (Mr. L, Bleck and Dimentio being the best) I'm going to vote O' Chunks because he's awesome. Easy fights but awesome character. Chunks Away!!!!!!!!! Wattz2000 00:53, April 18, 2011 (UTC)

Votes for Paratroopa

 * 5) Yeah...I'm gonna vote Paratroopa. Paratroopas are cooler and more powerful. Also, since I'm a huge Paper Mario fan and, just today beat it for my 8th (estimate) time I gonna vote him. Parakarry was so broken and awesome!! Wattz2000 01:04, April 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * 6) Obviously this guy. He has been one of my favorite enemies to fight and use in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!. And his shell's color is red and I like the color red more than green. ^-^ --Rainbowroad6w 14:25, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

Votes for King Boo

 * 1) He's a Boo. Awesome. He's got a giant crown. Awesome. He's got a giant crown that can stay on his head, despite the fact that's he is a ghost and therefore should not be able to have the crown just sit atop his head like that. Double awesome. Unless the crown itself is part-ghost too... which is awesome. -  McGillivray  227  03:35, April 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) The Boo are awesome, and the King Bob-omb is a really really really easy boss.Admin 13:15, April 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) King Boo is much more popular. He's a playable character, and has starred as the main villian in Luigi's Mansion. King Bob-omb only makes cameos and hardly has much of a role...exept for a boss and appearing in mini-games.  Wind   Mage   Master  18:49, April 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) Duh Boo's gonna win! Even if King Bomb-Omb Hurled a bomb at him, it would go right through him. The only way to beat this beast is with Luigi. Wombatruler 15:11, April 4, 2011 (UTC)WombatRuler
 * 5) Boos are much more difficult of bosses. Expecially King Boo who has had more than 2 main boss fights. Whereas King Bob-Om has had 1, and it was easier than despatching a Goomba. If push comes to shove, King Boo is a Boo. Enough said. Ѵєяɩτѧѕ 07:22, April 8, 2011 (UTC)AustinAsDeidara
 * 6) Yeah, I have to agree with the peoples' statements thus far. As for me, I would say King Bob-omb will be a tough cookie for a boo to defeat but "Ghosts can't die. Can you make it out of here, alive?" That is all I'm willing to say on the matter. Wattz2000 15:56, April 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * 7) I personally always liked Boos. -- Deku  Stick   Master  01:42, April 9, 2011 (UTC)
