I'd love to see Ms. Pac-man vs. Tanner. She'd win! HAHA

Damn right she would! :-)

At least my character will win a contest

Squall could win a contest designed for him to win as easily as Sephiroth could.

Still, I think Mr. Driller could take Serious Sam in a rematch. He's had Driller Spirits for the DS recently, and what has Sam had?

127 AiAi 8.65
128 Mr. Resetti 8.52

Gabe Logan would be expected to beat Tanner with 80.38% of the vote.

Zelda over Snake isn't exactly a bad upset pick. Besides, cookie cutter brackets suck. I'd rather have fun with one or two upset picks then go with a cookie cutter and hope my tiebreaker is good.

Yes, now go add 3% to Zelda's 2003 value (to compensate for the increase that both Link and Ganon have received). 43.12% on Mega Man.

Eh, the only thing giving me second thoughts is Snake Eater. Without it, I almost guarantee Snake would lose with ease. With it, he's a wild card. After all, his strongest year was 2002 when MGS2 was all over the place.

The same MGS2 where you control snake for all of 11 seconds.

The same MGS2 where you control snake for all of 11 seconds.

And where he is your guide and bad ass ally for the rest of the game.

Realize, this is the Snake who, when asked if they will run out of shots, simply points to himself and says, "No problem. Infinite ammo."

Assuming Ganondorf increased at the same rate that Link did from 2003 to 2004, he should have had 34.73% (just below Mario) on Link, sans SFF. His villain contest results put him at 35.47, assuming a static Sephiroth. Since Sephiroth likely decreased from 2004 to the Spring Contest, and also factoring in possible franchise voting and the like (controversial as it may be), it seems that Ganon's increase may have been primarily from 2003 to 2004. Granted, it's unlikely he increased at the same rate Link did (putting him so close to Mario doesn't sit right with me), but it seems almost certain to me that he is underrated by the 2004 X-stats. As such, Alucard is also underrated. If 2004 Ganondorf was at 34.73%, that would put Alucard at 29.76% (just above Squall). That's more than enough to make me confident in my pick of him over Sora.
