Join one

Custom battles anyone can play, busiest first. Scored on their own — none of it touches the Aura table.

07 — Custom battles

Run your own

Pick your own line-up, share the link, and settle it between yourselves. Nothing here touches the main table.

Between 2 and 64 people — two is enough to start. Anyone with a Wikipedia page can be added: they battle only in your room, never appear on the main table, and are not added to the site's celebrity list.

Battle order

Winner stays on: two go up, the one you pick stays in the ring and the one you do not is out for good. The survivor faces the next name, and the next, until nobody is left — every win is worth points, and whoever is still standing at the end takes a bonus on top.

Who can find it

When it runs optional

Every battle closes 7 days after it starts. Leave both empty and it starts now and runs the full 7 days; set an earlier end and it finishes then instead. Voting stops the moment it ends, and you can restart it afterwards for another run.

Custom battles are deleted 7 days after they are made — from the site and from the database. Screenshot anything you want to keep.

Someone missing?

The more detail you give, the faster an entry can be built.

We will look them up on Wikipedia as you type — picking them from the list tells us exactly who you mean, and brings their photograph with them. Not there? Just type the name and fill in the rest below.
