but, yeah, MC may not have a great chance, but he does have a chance. he will get a boost from Red vs. Blue; it just depends on how big of a boost he gets.

The only thing that is bothering me is Vivi and Frog...neither have been able to prove themselves yet and will likely become a bust like Tidus

Squall Leonhart's Road to the Summer Championship
First round: (13)Bomberman
I do think that whoever takes the first match will make it to round three pretty easily though.

Believe the hype.
Here's a thought: high vote totals might actually be a BAD thing for the winner. Think about it. If Cloud gets a lot of votes against a weak opponent, while Mario doesn't, perhaps all the fans of Cloud are much more enthusiastic about the tourney, while the fans of Mario don't really bother voting unless he's in a big match.
Mario did worse percentage-wise against Servbot than Cloud did against Fox, Fox got many more votes than Servbot. Cloud vs. Fox received a lot more votes than Mario vs. Servbot. Perhaps in that case, the raw number of votes for each loser could better indicate the loser's actual strength. In this case, Fox would beat Servbot with (18599/(18599+13777))%, or 57.44%.
Okay, so let's pretend all that is true. That means... "Cloud would beat Servbot with 78.38%...which means Mario had 4% of 'anti-votes'. Since Shadow vs. Mario wasn't SUPPOSED to be a big match, Mario did not get all those extra votes that he was supposed to draw. So...Crono himself probably would've gotten 59% against Shadow the Hedgehog, if you take out that 4% of 'anti-votes'." </advertising for Tidus' victory *runs*>
I wouldn't pay attention to SFF matches' vote totals (including ones that didn't alter the percentages). They probably do tend to have lower vote totals, for obvious reasons.
I almost forgot...will somebody (like Yesmar) be running a prediction percentage contest this year? We're getting close now, and I will take that task if nobody's going to do it.

I think he'd have a better one than most would think, but that's not to say he'll win. Just depends if the X-Box/Halo hate is still strong...and if the Spring Contest is a sign of anything, despite Halo losing in the first round (Halo ranked #10 regardless), then MC might go places this year.
Master Chief has already proven he has very little support in his near-loss to Felix.
True, but then he did plenty respectable against Aeris. Again, if the Spring Contest is a sign of anything, then things could easily be better for Halo fans this year. Alot of people also mention Red VS Blue helping, though I don't really think so...but with Halo 2 coming near, I think the hype push will help him alot.
I still have Frog to the Sweet Sixteen.

it was underwhelming because Kingdom Hearts was the board's UNANIMOUS favorite to beat Soul Calibur and the heavy favorite to win it's 4-pack. instead, KH barely won a come from behind victory in the first round before losing in the second round.
considering the high hopes this board had for KH, yes, it didn't perform anywhere near it's expectations.

Anyways:
Pwn nothing; Cloud will be lucky to beat Seph this year, with the likely anti-votes and whatnot. I think Cloud'll be lucky enough to face Link in the Championship, but that's it.
Cloud and Seph are Square Characters. The FF7 fanbase lies with Cloud, because he won the title last year. Thank you..thank you..bye. :-)

I actually had it facing Metroid Prime though, and Kingdom Hearts would beat it, for what it's worth.

Obviously, yes...last year. This year, the GameFAQs fanbase seemingly lies with having a new champion, and Link or Sephy would be the top two contenders for it. I think Cloud will beat Sephy again, but not Link.

I woulda done that too if Wind Waker wasn't in that set of eight games. =P Heh, I had KH over Halo though, then LoZ:WW over KH and SSBM. That division killed me, obviously.

that was my point, Leon. KH was hyped on this board as a lock to easily make the Sweet 16 without any previous performance, the same way Frog is being proclaimed an easy lock for the Sweet 16 without any previous performance. i'm not saying he's destined to fail, but Square has managed to not meet the board's hype before.

I think KH is the only match with no cheating, personally. Seeing Starcraft make comeback-wins against Halo, LoZ:WW, and nearly SSBM is a lil' too suspicious.
Oh, and I'd pick Squall in a close battle.

The thing is: Frog has easy opponents for the first two rounds. Liquid Snake he'll squeak by most likely and Master Chief is weak, (this is assuming MC can get over Crash, which he probably will).
---
Today's subliminal thought is:
All of that was 2002 and 2003; I keep pointing this out, but if the Spring Contest is a sign of anything, then 2004 could be a very good year for MC. If the X-Box/Halo hate is gone (at least much moreso than it was last year), then Master Chief can turn some heads this year. Add to it the Halo 2 hype, which dominates the hype of even MGS3 (assumption, not fact), and an untested Frog might have a very unexpected knock-down drag-out with MC.
We'll find out when MC faces Crash if the Halo-hate is gone or not.
