Oh, and I just noticed in another thread that there is also a **Porcupine** here too. So toss them into the mix.

Although they’d be natural allies with **Fretful Porpentine** , thus leaving **Spiny Norman** outnumbered.

You could be in a fight with the various - **boy** ’s of the board, like **Astroboy** and so on. Or maybe tagteam with them vs. the - **girl** ’s. 😉

I haven’t seen any names that could go with c\_carol, either. Maybe all the uninteresting unmatchables should be together.  
**c\_carol** vs … who else?

I think Running with Scissors is gonna destroy Papermache Prince, and I think Rockford will be all over Running with Scissors.

But you know what? Despite everything else-- despite what everyone else is saying-- I think in the end Papermache Prince will somehow beat Rockford’s ass. Call me crazy.
