Honestly, how many people would've taken Tidus to beat Shadow after
seeing 45% on Mario if they didn't have the rankings to see that they
were almost dead even? I probably wouldn't have.
Those that
thought Square RPG = Instant Win? I thought it was obvious, although
people have said I have a pathological hatred of all things Sonic
related, which is blatantly untrue. Sonic himself and his games are
fine...

Well, there's always being really close to someone who got 35% on Link,
so it all balances out. Sort of. I actually made a few good picks last
year BECAUSE I didn't know of the X-Sts back then. It's a double-edged
sword, really.

Ah, well, even with knowledge of extrapolated rankings before the 2003
contest, it was still quite unpredictable due to the mass amounts of
new characters that year. This year had hardly any notable new
characters...

Sure, Frog vs. Liquid is a nail-biter for those with brackets, but the casuals could care less.
Er,
do the casuals give a rat's ass anyway? They vote, they get two seconds
of jollies by seeing their character is winning, and then they dont
give it a second thought.
If you put Clink in the same division, it would be a wash for EVERYONE the moment the winner of Cloud vs. Link becomes official.
That's
the point. If theyre in the same division, the contest is over after
their match. If they arent in the same division, then they hose through
a lot of otherwise deserving characters. Neither of those outcomes is
all that welcoming, personally.

nifboy, ps2rulezz, and Hogasm kicked my ass in the Summer Contest.
On the surface, 45% on Mario looks a lot better than an indirect 35% on
Link. That was one of the big arguments as to why Shadow would win this
year.

the contest more unpredictable. Seeds are double edged swords.

Same here. But, without that, I'm all for dropping the victors.
even
with knowledge of extrapolated rankings before the 2003 contest, it was
still quite unpredictable due to the mass amounts of new characters
that year.
Part of the unpredictability was also due to the
massive voter base change, that allowed Cloud to beat Link and Sephy to
give a nice strong performance. Without another shift like that,
nothign is gonna budge Clink from the untouchable position.

You forgot to add more unpredictable. And I don't see where the
underseeding and overseeding are of the "...greatest proportions."
More unpredictable?
Only the quarters, the rest is just as much cake.
Each of Sephirmus Clink deserves a #1 seed, denying TWO of them of their deserved seed is a treachery by itself.
And the other 4 does NOT deserve a #1 seed, and giving them those seed over those more deserving is yet another treachery.

Rather, i think having ten fewer 80-20
blowouts a tournament might be interesting. Yeah, a lot of those might
get replaced with 60-40's, but if a bracket were crafted intelligently
you could get a lot of good new matches without Clink involved. Clink
is good for one match, and one match only, and that one match is not
worth the fact that an intelligent bracket maker could pull four or
five good matches through the rearranging that would occur by dropping
them.

Only the quarters, the rest is just as much cake.
All
four elite matches are unpredictable, one semi-final match is
unpredictable, and then round 1-round 3 can easily be crafted to be
unpredictable.
Each of Sephirmus Clink deserves a #1 seed, denying TWO of them of their deserved seed is a treachery by itself.
You
will never see a bracket based on pure strength, unless we were to make
it, in this contest. Giving Samus a #2 seed finally gives Sephiroth his
#1 seed and doesn't make it look nearly as bad.
And the other 4 does NOT deserve a #1 seed, and giving them those seed over those more deserving is yet another treachery.
Mario
and Mega Man/Crono not worthy of getting a #1 seed? They all sound like
fine candiates for a #1 seed to me, despite what the rankings say on
strength. Besides, you act as if the seed is prominent in how they
perform. Who cares if they aren't as strong as their seed
suggest, or stronger than their seed suggest, if it can create better
matches and a more unpredictable contest?

Less 80-20 blowouts could be achieved by strengthening the lower part
of the field. Bring on those who did well in 2002 and haven't seen a
contest since. Bring on the rookies from games that scored well in the
Spring Contest (Kerrigan and Nightmare for example).

Because
by removing those two, you manage to rearrange the entire bracket -
yes, Sephmius will take Clink's place in matches, and they will win
those matches also. But everyone in the contest gets bumped up as well,
not just Sephimus - suddenly, you get a lot more room for actual good
matches.
I realize I need to make a bracket to try to illustrate
my point here....lets see how badly my bracket making skills are, i

I
don't see why you think that removing Cloud and Link is going to
somehow raise the quality of the contest to an orgasmic level.
And how many more good matches are we getting by removing Cloud and Link? ZERO.

132...Took Seph to win the contest...*shrug*
I
would kill for a tournament of all new characters, or at least of
characters who have never made it further than the sweet sixteen.
If
it honestly came down to it though, I would not mind seeing Link and
Cloud pulled from the contest. Yeah, it would mean that Seph or Samus
would probably win it. But as it stands, Link or Cloud WILL win it next
year. Even if you consider Seph/Cloud a SFF match, the gap between
Clink and anyone else is unholy. In order to change that, you would
need to massively change the voter composition of the site.
Also,
taking those two out would allow for more interesting matches. I don't
know about some of you, but personally i find little to no redeeming
value to multiple rounds of massive blowouts. The only people these
matches are interesting to are us stats freaks who sit around and argue
over the implications of the differences between Insane Massacre A vs.
Insane Massacre B. Hell, I even think a good chunk of us are getting
fed up with those matches as well.
Additionally, those two guys
are the biggest SFF grabbing fiends around. They make for boring
matchups, and ruin the possibility of other people from their companies
of ever being able to put on a show.
But if nothing else, just
think fo the sheer number of matches they two of them would ruin.
Anything involving Link or Cloud that ISNT Link v. Cloud is
predetermined.
Think about it - If they arent in the same half
of the bracket, then we have ten matches which, thanks to them, are a
complete waste.
If theyre on the same half, but if different divisions, then we have a total of nine matchups in the contest that are a waste.
If theyre in the same division, there are eight matches in the tournament that suck.
Hell, even if we have them kick each others ass in the first round, we still end up with five stupid matches.
Yeah,
its a popularity contest. But I'd be more than willing to see a few
fewer votes coming from multis in the big draw matches if we had the
possibility of seeing more matchups that we actually could give a ****
about.

No, only the quarters will be more predictable.
The semis WILL be predictable once the quarters roll out.
The early rounds can be made more interesting WITHOUT stacking a division, just avoid SFF.
You
will never see a bracket based on pure strength, unless we were to make

Not as bad, true, but still worse than what we have right now.

more unpredictable contest?
A better contest is one with a climactic final, a battle between 2 chars who has the largest fanbases.
Unpredictability by itself does NOT make a contest more exciting.
Remember, think about the masses.
I'm sure MOST of them would be sorely disappointed to see Cloud or Link went out before the semis.

Taking out Cloud and Link is a terrible idea.
It
solves nothing. Instead of two characters named Link and Cloud
dominating, you have one character dominating. With another having an
outside shot.
HOW IS THAT ANY BETTER?
We're suddenly
going to have fantastic 1/16 matches with Sephiroth instead of Link?
Did you notice how Sephy blew out his opponent worse than Cloud this
year? The 8's are going to challenge the 1's? Please The 4's (Bowser,
Alucard, Sora, and Vivi) are going to challenge Seph? Did you notice
how well the did on him this year? Your argument holds no merit
whatsoever. Give it up.

All removing Clink will do is murder the vote totals.
Their fans will be so disappointed that they won't even bother voting.

Additionally,
those two guys are the biggest SFF grabbing fiends around. They make

Not
only that, but you guys claim that general interest would be lowered,
as well. Of course, if interest is lessened, anyway, why don't we use
my previous suggestion in that we take out all the characters who have
won a division (in otherwords, the Super Seven)? The characters are
close enough to each other that year-to-year volatilities will ensure
unpredictability. Hey, and finally seeing lots of matches like Zero vs.
Aeris, which we likely couldn't see otherwise... that would excite me.
Two things we have to deal with between keeping it the same or taking out characters:
1) Another likely boring contest
OR
2)
Less interest by the average visitor, AND possibly being boring again
unless you cut out enough characters to MAKE the later rounds
unpredictable.
Now, if you can't handle either of those
consequences (I'd pick the 2nd choice myself), why don't we just do
something completely different?
Ack, but I can't forget one
thing: If CJayC allows the stats crew to create the bracket, everything
up to the division finals would probably be good, anyway. That's the
only way I wouldn't mind another Link/Cloud character contest again.

"Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?"

When they don't see Clink around, they'll say "**** this contest" and wait till next year.
I'd
just like to elaborate on this a little bit with my own thoughts. I
would say about 50% of the people want Clink gone. I would say that of
the 50% who want them gone, 80% are silly and don't really understand
WHAT makes the contest hard. 10% just want a new winner. 5% have actual
SOMEWHAT reasonable arguments. The remaining 5% are just clueless.
However, I would say that 95% will NOT stop being interested just
because Clink stays, as long as there is a difficult bracket to
interest them. On the other hand, of the 50% who want Clink to stay or
don't care, I'd bet 50% would NOT be interested in Clink left.

read two ways. First way is that a plurality wants to retire past
winners. Second way is that the majority at least think it wont make a
difference if you retire winners.

That's only because they know that their favorites are still out there.
That's why they keep coming back day after day waiting for their fave's turn.
And most of them will vote just for the heck of it.
Remember, people don't mark their calendars to remind themselves of the days when their faves will fight.
But if they see that their faves aren't even in to begin with, then they won't care anymore.

That's
half the fun in SFF. We don't know for sure if Protoman suffered
enough. And after seeing what Zero did to Mega Man, I think that match
could be fairly interesting.
Magus is out of Dante's league, but so are most other people and he needs a way to Sonic
Yeah,
but I couldn't give Zero AND Magus a chance to try against Sonic all in
one tournament without vastly overseeding one of the three.
I don't like SFF in Aeris/Frog
See,
I'm not sure how much SFF would really hit in Aeris/Frog. Or who it
would help for that matter. This match was being used before SC2K4 as a
way to try and guage Frog. I think it would be fairly interesting to
see how it plays out. Of course I could be wrong.
Woah, Squally will blow out Fox.
Yeah, I got lazy =P
Thanks for the comments. ^_^
The positive ones too. I'm not gonna comment on each one individually but they were nice. =)

I
bow down to smitelf, Queen ***** of the Universe. Her intelligence,
wit, and sexiness have consume’d me. Nifboy is an amazing, god-like
diety.
Clink vs. Sephirmus will be at least a shut-out in favor of Clink, I wouldn't call that a good match at all.
Croman will easily dispose of Mario, it'll take a miracle for Mario to even put up a fight.
Oh, like Cloud blew out Seph two years ago? What if he suffered SFF against Cloud? Then he could put up a fight on Link.
Mario won't put up a fight? He's not very far away from Mega Man or Crono, and he'll have several DS titles.
Personally, I'd rather see a week of good matches instead of what we had this year, but whatever.

Err, like Cloud blew out Seph last year. Sarcasm doesn't work when I screw up the facts.
