Board 8: Where people treat each other right.

I'm calling for a new Square benefit to higher vote totals, which I said might be the case from the beginning.


Which may very well be true. We'll see how the next match plays out and see whether or not it's constant.

Where would you consider the cutoff line for old/new Square? Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy 7?

I would imagine that you would definitely say FFVII is the oldest "New School" Square.

Final Fantasy VII. That's when the new era officially began in my mind since it brought a whole new load of people to RPGs.

He does have a point, i dont remember Master Chief ever doing any good. I also chose Cats over Master Chief. (cats looks cooler....that and im not really a Halo fan....or an xbox fan for that matter.)
From: HaRRicH | Posted: 7/25/2005 11:48:12 PM | Message Detail
That's due to her game, not necessarily having higher vote totals.

Well-aware, I'm just talking about the board in general. We saw how quick they jumped on the bandwagon about how Nintendo's the one benefitting from it, afterall.

Yeah, FF7 is definitely the cut-off line. No question.

So this topic will now be about CATS great chance against Master Chief, apparently since nobody likes the XBox...

Heh, well, can we assume Ganon's gonna have the bracket advantage next round OR assume people pay more attention to the contests than we suspect?

interesting, we lost (I think) 8 zero brackets. maybe some of these zero brackets are actually favourites brackets with really, really crappy taste.

I bet it's how the casual bracket maker thinks Ganon is gonna get all the Link support and have him beating Samus..that just came to my mind.

From: charmander6000 | Posted: 7/26/2005 12:03:13 AM | Message Detail
Over half the people picked Ganondorf to make it to the finals in the VC, so you can at least expect 80% from just 1 character.

that huge bracket number for Ganon is making me think that he'll get the bracket vote over Auron despite being the lower seed. that could push him over the top.

Wow. Congrats to Ganondorf on getting so much bracket support.

And Big Boss is really sucking right now. Hopefully my Oracle prediction of 72% holds up...I've gotten hammered in the last few days.
