Hi Yankee, welcome aboard!

(I made a couple of edits to your post - the biggest being making the list of characters not one word. Hope you don't mind?)

Sounds like an interesting game.

FWIW, I'd argue Wolverine's popularity took off (after his mini-) after his connection to the Flight was revealed (UXM #120-121, maybe #139-140) and he might not have the popularity on an Alpha Flight board that he does in the wild.
But I'm not arguing he should be on the list... Just sayin'.

My first entry will follow, just getting it together.

The basic rule is: this is a zero sum game, right? No matter how many votes happen, there should be a total of 380 points?
