Terrible choice of title again, Nymus! But this is an Elimination Game, and it IS based on WoW races!
How to play an Elimination Game:
You have a list of choices, and you have +1 or -3 as a vote. All races start at 20. Say for example:
Human - 20
Orc - 20
Troll - 20
Add AND subtract your votes based on your personal preference, and explain why. You can't only add or only subtract, you have to do both! Put your reason why you added or subtracted in green and red for like and dislike respectively. For example:
Human - 20
Orc - 21 Tribal hordes and burning and pillaging the lands is fun. Also demon history.
Troll - 17 I don't like the model, and the male ones all have hunchbacks. Why!?
Take the previous poster's list, and add and subtract based on their score. However, you don't have to select the same one the previous poster did. For example again:
Human - 21 Humans are cool and flexible and junk.
Orc - 18 Green skin, broccoli people.
Troll - 17
See? Easy!
EDIT: Derp, forgot to mention - once a race hits 0 or below, they're kicked out. If a poster sees that a race has hit 0, please remove them from your post!
Let's start:
Human - 20
Dwarf - 20
Night Elf - 20
Gnome - 20
Draenei - 20
Worgen - 20
Orc - 20
Undead - 20
Tauren - 21 Giant bulls with Native American culture, kickass.
Troll - 17 - Same reason I stated in the example, I don't like the model and the males are all hunchbacks.
Blood Elf - 20
Goblin - 20

Human - 15 This is the easiest to adapt to sort of character. Humans? Relatable.
Night Elf - 20
Gnome - 17 Gnomes? Not so much. I just find them silly, to be honest.

Human - 9 Never liked humans. Not their lore, not the way they act... They're the reason for all the wars in the world! ... They also somewhat caused the Orcs to even travel to Kalimdor...
Night Elf - 21 I love the lore, love their personalities, love the RP. Don't love the animations and some of the voice files but that's Blizzard's fault and I stand by what I say... The people who created those animations should be shot.

Human - 10 The most "blank slate" folk. Unique in that they don't have any pre-defined expectations as a race that you have to work around when constructing a character (eg Tauren as a race revere nature; Blood Elves as a race are ostentatious; etc.)
Night Elf - 21
Gnome - 17
Draenei - 20
Worgen - 17 Why roll a normal human when you can roll a human with lycanthropy? I've seen too many people praise worgen as strict upgrades to their human counterparts and lose sight of the fact that the worgen curse is in fact a curse and not a blessing.

Looks like Werewolf has saved Humans from a painful death... but only time can tell what will transpire!

Is posting more than once allowed, if we have spread opinions about other races?

Human - 7 Not only do the males looked like body-builders gone wrong, but they're the most boring race out there. I mean really, it looks like their muscles are tumors.

Human - 7
Dwarf - 21
Night Elf - 22 - Xenophobic, ancient creatures with awesome stories for the most part. True, the animations are dodgy, but I really enjoy the lore.
Gnome - 17
Draenei - 20
Worgen - 17
Orc - 21
Undead - 20
Tauren - 21
Troll - 19
Blood Elf - 15 - Just personal preference. Why roll a human when you can roll a taller, thinner, immortal and more mysterious one? That's a vast generalization, of course, but I've seen a few played a such.
