I prefer Wizard's Foot on the edge, myself. It works quite well in sending them straight to hell.

Ganon: Hey look, it’s the Eggman!
Robotnik: That’s what I am!
Ganon: You are the Eggman!
Robotnik: I got the master plan!
Ganon: Is your master plan to make your whole four-pack look like garbage?
Robotnik: You know it! *^5’s Ganon IMHO*
Ganon: At least it’s better than Alucard’s plan.
Alucard: Hey…SHUT-UP!

Notice how there's a picture of Ganondorf owning Sephiroth but not the other way around?

Because if they gave Ganon a sword, he'd truly be unstoppable in the game. I mean, him alone without the sword is powerful, but just imagine with with a sword!

They better fix his recovery ability then. I remember I hated using Link on the Great Fox in the original SSB because if I ever fell to the bottom, I had to use his up-B move just to get back up because he couldn't jump high enough on his own.

I've never been a fan of what Nintendo has done to poor Link. In SSB, the first character I chose to play as was Link and eventually I discovered that he sucked ass. In SSBM, the first character I chose to play as was Link and I discovered that he was a little better, but still not that great.


You see, Nintendo is just working up him until he's unstoppable in the next SSB. Mwa ha ha! And, luckily, it'll be the one where you can face people online. Oh, how unlucky you people have it if Nintendo fulfills my long awaited wish... <3

How much does Ganondorf need on Sephiroth to show that Samus would be predicted to beat him?

and lol at moltar.

Of course, that's mostly because his recovery ability is beyond suck.

Link's recovery is fine, simply because of how difficult it is to edgeguard/Edge Hog him. He can Hookshot to edge to come in low enough to prevent most things, and if you get knocked a good distance away, pull out a bomb before making your first jump.

Well, do the math. If Sephiroth gets less than 59% tomorrow, then Samus would be projected to win.

You know, that Ganon cosplay is actually a chick:

Here's what looks like another pic of her, where it's easier to see she is female:
http://www.thelostwoods.net/photo/Gandorfina.jpg

I was trying to guess how Ceej found those pics; that one's on the first Google results page for "ganondorf cosplay". The Sephiroth one is first for "sephiroth cosplay".

Seeing Ganon dominate as he did was great...except for absolutely decimating Dr. Robotnik; that's nothing but a damn shame.

HM, Slow, I'm gonna make ya'll's day; I'm gonna vote for Ganon, I've decided. I wanna see SOMEBODY with a lead over Sephiroth at the 1,000-mark, and none of this tied bull. =P

lol, i love that cosplay picture.

and, i am still saying that Ganon will not do quite as well as Bowser. he will be close, but i don't think he will be able to keep tied for the first hour like Bowser did. i'm predicting that ganon will finish just under 40%.

well, i'm off to bed. it's been a fun contest. not the best contest we've ever had, but it's still been fun discussing and arguing everything with all of you. ^_^

here's hoping that it's a nice quick off-season before we get our Summer Contest. i really hope Ceej wastes no time in getting the Summer nomination page up.

Fun Facts: Bottom of the barrel.

If Ganondorf scores higher than 33.25%, Tenpenny is the weakest character in the contest, beating out Giygas for that noble award.
After Tenpenny and Giygas, the battle for third place is between Luca Blight and Pyramid Head. If Ganon breaks 43%, Luca Blight > Pyramid Head.
After them, Ghaleon and Kuja duel it out for 5th place. Ganondorf needs to break 43.1% for Kuja to beat Ghaleon.

Wow, a good bunch of us expected Kuja to rank in the top 5, myself included, but he may very well end up in the bottom 5. Master Hand was even worse fodder than I thought he was, but that's just miserable now.

Just for kicks, how bad would Ganon have to be beat to have Kuja be the third weakest (I know he can't be below Luca or Giygas in the stats now)?

Meh, but I'm suspicious about Robotnik vs. Ganondorf. My expectations for Robotnik were lower than most anybody's, and he STILL is measured to be weaker than I thought he would. I also thought Sin, Master Hand, and Kuja would all be considerably stronger. I don't think it's any coincidence. :/ Or, maybe CATS is really that popular this year, Diablo is underperforming in this match, and Ganondorf is a monster capable of beating Sephiroth. I think I'll go with the first option. (no, I won't accept it all being accurate!)

Well, we are talking about Tenpenny (Tanner award winner!), Giygas (Ms. Pac Man award winner!), Luca Blight (die, pigs! I don't get an award!), and Pyramid Head (why am I here?).

Speaking of awards, it may be a bit premature, but I have to say that the most disappointing is obviously Kuja, with an honorable mention to Sephiroth (nobody will escape a doubling! Oh, hi Bowser) and Liquid Snake. Most impressive goes to Nemesis (9th place? WTF?) and Bison (5th place).

I'm not saying that's the strength rankings; that's just my stances on the most disappointing/impressive.

4)CATS
5)Nemesis

Five biggest duds:
1)Liquid Snake
2)Kuja
3)Officer Tenpenny

Heh, Tenpenny got damn near quadrupled by Liquid, and yet we see who #1 and #3 are. I know there were different expectations set for each of the two, but I still find that funny.
