🐭 MOUSE SHOWDOWN!!! Which One Will Win?
Two mice showed up in my Steemit replies two days ago, and challenged each other to a duel! Yes, @teamhumble and @flauwy were innocently perusing my post: 💎 The Top #11 List - Discovering Steemit’s Most Radical Creative Thinkers, Vol. 02, and then, when they discovered each other they drew their swords!
MOUSE SHOWDOWN
The Steemit exclusive contest begins now.
Two of Steemit's mouse mascots will join ten of popular culture's most famous mice in a single-elimination bracket tournament. Only one mouse will win in the end. Steemians decide the victors of every round, based on the number of comments cast in either mouse's favor*. @teamhumble and @flauwy are Steemit's two local favorites, and so they will appear on opposite sides of the bracket.
*Note: I reserve the right to bypass the audience's voting for quality assurance.
Here Are Our 12 Contestants
(1) Mickey Mouse, Silly Symphonies; (2) @flauwy, Steemit; (3) Danger Mouse, Danger Mouse; (4) Fievel Mousekewitz, An American Tail; (5) Mighty Mouse, Mighty Mouse; (6) Jerry Mouse, Tom and Jerry, (7) Monterey Jack, Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers; (8) Mrs. Brisby, The Secret Of NIMH; (9) @teamhumble, Steemit; (10) Remy, Ratatouille; (11) Speedy Gonzales, Looney Tunes; and (12) Miss Bianca, The Rescuers.

The Game
Each day, I will present two mouse contestants. Then, the Steemit audience will decide which mouse proceeds to the next round. There are 12 players in this game, so that means there will be 6 matches in the first round, 3 in the next round, and 1 championship match featuring the three top-voted mouse contestants. You will decide which mouse proceeds to the next round, and ultimately, you will decide the winner. Let's make it fun!

Lots of hero’s journeys to consider here. I vote for Mrs. Brisby. In the story of Mrs. Brisby, a.k.a. Mrs. Frisby, she’s a single mother, called to action when one of her children turns ill. She takes on a dangerous mission to remedy him. Reminds me of my time as a single mother. Mrs. Brisby is a survivor. The Secret of NIMH movie is one of my all-time favorites, although it's still too scary for Rosalie, age 4, and Gabriel, 2.
Wow, what a great reply. Thanks for your stellar comment. Mrs. Brisby is one of the characters I favor too. She'll face Monterey Jack in her first showdown scheduled for Monday, September 11, at high-noon.
I'm not familiar with this Monterey Jack character, but Mrs. Brisby will eat him alive, with crackers on the side. ;)
As it turns out, YOU WON!!! You predicted Mrs. Brisby would win right from the beginning. And after 10 matches, your hairy heroine was victorious. As your prize, you win the total earnings of this post. Wish it was a bigger prize! I very much appreciate your enthusiasm throughout the MOUSE SHOWDOWN game and contest. Thank you.
:) Thank you. It was fun! Be sure to let me know when you launch another contest.
Oh fun!!!
Thanks for your upvote and reply! Yeah, it's just for fun. I'm working on embracing my inner child, and so it feels natural to return to some of my favorite cartoon characters as I find my voice here on Steemit. Cheers!
haha, mouse chaos... we always liked Tutter from Bear in the Big Blue House ... kinda random shout out (-: peace
Oh yes, I looked up Tutter just now. Adorable!
haha, that's our guy! (-:
Tutter probably won't win this contest (since he's on on the tournament bracket), but he's a winner nonetheless. Cheers!
Fun idea:-) I vote for Speedy Gonzales, he will win.
Yay! Thanks so much for your vote, and I'm really happy you think the idea is fun. Your encouragement means a lot to me. Yeah, Speedy is a good choice. He's so funny! Hopefully other Steemians will agree.

You got this, bro. MOUSE SHOWDOWN, Match #5: @teamhumble Vs. Remy.
