You know, Zero has always been a force in these contests. Always in the Top 15 or so...yet people still miss the ball with him. 51% had him getting past the second round this time (last year it was 35% or so having him beat Vercetti).

Today's subliminal thought is:

I'd take Luigi over Frog in half a second, especially after what we've seen from the CT supporting crew.

Board 8: Where people treat each other right.

Don't blame me, I picked Protoman! Teach me to think the original Mega Mans accounted for more of Mega Man's popularity.

I thought the same when I picked Wily over Ocelot a few months back.

1. Gordon Freeman; 2. Mega Man

How strong would X be, anyway?

X is already in the contest...
---
Leon's Quest For Ultimate Glory:
1. Gordon Freeman; 2. Mega Man

X and the original Mega Man are two different robots, but let's not get into this debate again.
---
Today's subliminal thought is:

X would be virtually identical to Mega Man in strength, I'm positive of it. That's why I'm glad he's not in it, and I think it's a good ruling by CJay.

They are pretty much the same but I just wish CjayC would use MMX pics once in a while..!!!seriously!!

---
"Life...Dreams...Hope...Where'd they come from? And where are they headed...? These things...I'm going to destroy!!" -Kefka

Indeed. If they're considered one and the same within the contest, at least use an occasional X pic.
---
Board 8: Where people treat each other right.

I'm not against that. I think we should see an X pic, too.

I am sure this has been mentioned before but I most likely missed it..

What are you percentage predictions on Tifa vs. Luigi?

---
"Life...Dreams...Hope...Where'd they come from? And where are they headed...? These things...I'm going to destroy!!" -Kefka

Maybe no one nominates him as "X" or whatever. >_>

60/40 to Tifa

I'm not opposed to seein' X-pics...but NES Mega Man owns the hell out of any other Mega Man I know.

Since it's believed Ganon over performed in the villains contest. What do you think the chances are he's on par with Magus this year?
---
Ahem! There's LETTUCE on my boots!

He's not.. He's gotten quite stronger and with the beastly Nintendo popularity rising this year, he's quite ahead of Magus

---
"Life...Dreams...Hope...Where'd they come from? And where are they headed...? These things...I'm going to destroy!!" -Kefka

Looking at it, I just thought I'd point out, using Alucards '02 level (Yes, I know this is inaccurate) and Ganon vs. Alucard, I got Ganon to be 26.49% on Link. Now, isn't this pretty much on par with what Magus is this year?

So, think could be good for Auron.
---

So why are you using Alucard's 2k2 numbers when Alucard's 2k3 numbers are perfectly fine and might actually have him underrated?
---
Leon's Quest For Ultimate Glory:
1. Gordon Freeman; 2. Mega Man

I'm screwed either way if I go along with that, considering I also have Alucard > Sora.

But, just some food for thought. If you keep Yuna constant Ganondorf drops to 30.48% on 2k3 Link. I think this will be closer to his actual value than 35% or whatever the hell they have him at.

I don't believe Riku gets 28% on Samus. There's something wrong here...

The more time passes, the more I think the favorite (according to the board) will win every gauntlet match, and the only upset we'll see is DK > MC. Heh, it would make my day though, since I love that big ugly ape.

I won't be mad to see DK get to face Crono instead of MC...but I'd rather see MC than DK advance.

That's right. Cloud N. Candy would get a NEGATIVE percentage, and RPGuy's extrapolated calculator would crash. - therealmnm

58th/125 in the Guru Standings. Why did I pick Kratos? *sigh*

After this match, using unadjusted Frog, Samus beats is 48% in the stats.

Using adjusted Frog, Samus is at 53%.

---
Magus screwed my bracket over. Yay!

After hitting 70.7ish, Samus is down to 70.5. Not a big deal, but still, it''s not exactly dark outside...

Chun-Li > Bowser book it - lol_internet
Vote for Kirby in SC2K5!

Alright, just got home, so I have some comments to make.

First, about yesterday, WTF @ Zero's percentage? 54%? After 2 years of doing good (48% on Sonic and 43% on Mega Man), Zero STILL can't the Round 3 bracket support? Hell, he only had 70% getting past Hayabusa. I wonder why is that...people really thought Lloyd/Wesker was going to take down Zero/Ryu?

And BOOYAH! at Samus's percentage today. Over 70% and rising. I told you guys that Frog would be exposed for the weak bastard he is. Liquid proved he was overrated, Chief proved he was overrated, and now Frog gets his ass kicked. This is good to see from my winner. Only thing that worries me now is Snake. I'm guessing a Frog overperformance (because of the sprite) with a Snake underperformance (Solid ****). Still doesn't make me confident for his match with Zelda.

And this DOES make Sora > Alucard look good, though I have been pretty confident in it for a while.
---
SC2K5: Samus is going all the way!
Samus vs. Frog - Bracket: Samus - Vote: Samus (32/36)

Does this mean Sora > Snake? Frog is getting 30% on Samus, when he got 48% on Snake. Sora got 34% on Samus.
If Snake gets past Zelda, he's going down to Sora!

>_>
---

No, Snake will still beat Sora when they face off.

Squall Leonhart's Road to the Summer Contest 2005 Championship

well i think this match sort of proves match pics are influential. i can't see samus cripling snake to nothingness
---
Kilroy:There fate will be in each other's hands as they decide whether to share or to shaft

Eh...depends what you mean by crippling. Samus would be somewhere in the low to mid 60's on Snake.
---
ALL YOUR VOTES ARE BELONG TO...Pac-Man?

Correction. Alucard will beat Sora than win over Solid Snake because Solid Snake will get the Solid ****** pic and Alucard will get his Sotn pic.

He then losses to the winner in of the Dream Division.
---

Well, Samus got 57%+ on Sonic. She'd get 60% on Snake easily.
---
Squall Leonhart's Road to the Summer Contest 2005 Championship
Round 2: (3) Mag...Er...(6) Knuckles the Echidna

Alucard won't be able to win over Snake since he's losing to Zelda in 2 days.

And last I checked, Alucard's SotN picture looked like absolute trash, too.
