Could someone make a poll for this cuz I'm curious who everyone thinks is the craziest character. Not handler.... but character. Because of the insane (pun intended) amount of entries possible, each voter can vote for 2 characters. So who do you think is the craziest?

Again, I have to ask, how are we defining crazy here? Straight up insanity? In which case i don't see Lantlas, Q or Nathan Saniti being possible options due to the fact that they are very sane, just because they come from a different "reality" than one we're used to, they are perfectly suited to that reality and there for not crazy. By the same token, Usali Basilisk wouldn't be a contender (dude talked to gods, resurrected dead wrestlers and he didn't make the list?)
Of course if we're just talking zany, off the wall antics, then obviously some of these people jump straight to the front of the pack.
I don't think I can vote in this until I understand where we're going with this "crazy" idea

Adjective: Deranged, insane, senseless, impractical, unusual, bizarre. Noun: An unpredictable, nonconforming person, oddball. Idioms: With great enthusiasm or energy, to an extreme. With great speed or recklessness. And for the record... I thought the whole roster would be on. We all be a little crazy... in our own way. Some may be deranged while others are unpredictable, with still others just being enthusiastic or energetic. *EDIT* sorry for the multiple posts. PB was acting crazy!
GET IT?
I crack myself up...

I was wondering where he was on the list, too. It's actually why I haven't voted.

I'm pretty sure there's an obvious answer to why he's not on the list... but I'll personally refrain from making it.
Besides, with an 'Other' Option, technically everyone is on the list (as long as people can be bothered to post the other nomination anyway)

It can't be that obvious, I'm not galactically obtuse and I can't figure out a good reason - so by all means, feel free to enlighten the rest of the class. The list is full of past and present characters, a couple of which I'd never even heard of, and a couple of which make exactly no sense to be on the list in the first place.
With all of those people chosen, it stands to reason that a character that made their impressive PCW career out of being various flavors of crazy would make the list.
Unless the "obvious reason" is that he'd win. But someone has to, unless this turns into another bracket poll competition thing.

wow, that's actually begging for a legit reason to be presented... which I didn't have and was simply referring to the semi-running joke about adding Rick to stuff... now I feel like a bit of a douche for even remotely bringing it up... I apologise and withdraw from this line of enquiry you are making.

I think the 'adding Rick to stuff joke' was a bit subtle. Hell, I missed it and I know the joke quite well. Note: if you have a joke about Rick, include it. Everyone laughs at jokes about Rick. Especially since, you know, he's too busy to read them.

I'll clarify Non Compos Mentis's omission- it was a brain fart. But that IS why there is an Other category. I could have added quite a few other name options as well, like Overdose for instance, but I didn't really think of the name options- just the names that popped to my head when making the list. My bad Rick. I thought better than to add you- you're busy. As far as what's crazy- what's crazy is what you get out of the character. Murdoc, as The Prophet, was a religious zealot (characterizing, sure, but I'm only explaining why the name popped for me, in case people were wondering). I could have added him to the list as well. Q? Eccentric. Lantlas was a wrestling elf. There's two ways to go about it, one is to take it literal and believe his story that he is an immortal wrestling elf, and the other is to think the guy was nuts. Wrestling elves? What the fuck ever hombre. Nathan Saniti falls into the same boat as Lantlas. I could go on and on. I want to go on record in stating I am trying to look at from a completely fan kayfabe standpoint; Not as a reader but as a fan of the PCW Universe.

I don't think I'll ever reveal the answer to that question, and that's the way it should be. Any answer I gave would ultimately be disappointing.

*sits in a high-backed ornately carved red velvet Victorian-era chair, wearing only a black silk smokers jacket and Spiderman underoos, huffing on a bubble pipe, and reading Mad Magazine and wearing a monocle placed in the middle of his forehead*
I may have to get in on this action soon. I simply mustn't be outdone by the likes of all these riff-raff.
