please don't refer to consolefreak as a person. persons are capable of logical thought.

Sorry, my mistake. But I stopped taking anything that guy says seriously months ago, so I could care less. I only finished reading the topic because of how pissed off everyone else was getting. You'd think people would just mark the posts for trolling and ignore him after awhile.

I think Auron is still the third strongest FF character.

I don't see him having troubles breaking 54% on Dante.

Actually... Slowflake LIKES Sonic... He's just doesn't like the blatant Sonic fanboyism. Nor do I. Kinda makes it hard to openly root for Sonic...

It's a shame too, considering how often other characters are excitedly praised, too. I don't see why it's just Sonic that irks him.

11 more votes to tie his biggest lead.

Can he do it?

I don't want to say that Vincent is "pulling away", but given how close the match is, can you really blame me for thinking it? 4 vote gains per five minutes is mammoth <_<

I said 'please, for the love of god, just ignore him' like six times, but those who love to argue x-stats can't resist picking apart the logical mistake that is consolefreak. oh well.

vincent is pulling away if he can break 200 vote lead. i'm still hoping he makes a slip up in votes and squall capitalises on it

So since this is the weekend the day vote should've started by now right?

Squall with an Update win!

consolefreak's big argument is that he said that there would be SFF in that match before it took place.

Before Hurricane Katrina hit, I predicted that a magnetic reversal of Pluto's axis would cause El Nino to hit the Atlantic Ocean and thus cause the biggest hurricane since Andrew. Because a large hurricane showed up, my theory must automatically be true.

And remember, FFTA outsold FFT.

Here I was, thinkin' 'bout catchin' up on the last topic...but I don't wanna read it now. I think consolefreak is the new TG, so to speak, simply because of that one theory; I wouldn't even mind so much if he'd talk about something OTHER than that damned Solid/Sora match.


Anyways, as for today's match...holy Jesus. Here's the close match we've all been waiting for. Go Vincent go.

I remember when HM predicted Mega Man/Tidus to near-perfection, and yet it was NOT because Mega Man was championship-material like he had thought.

Same premise here.

8>7

this is numerical fact.

no, I think TG wants to cause trouble; consolefreak just finds ways to contort x-stats that hurt the brain. my brain is developing some kind of black spot where I don't even see his post anymore. it's awesome.

you can probably guess what the stats topic was like:

"Vincent up 9!"
"god come on Squall"
"Squall up 4"
"STUPID SQUALL"
"Squall takes the lead! IT'S OVER GUYS"
"Snake/Sora SFF!!!1111"

etc.

Vince is going to bust 200

What a 42 carat plonker you really are~del boy only fools and horses

the thing that freaks me out about cf is that he always seems to derail a stats topic in the middle of a great match. he's never throwing his theories around during a boring 70-30 match.

So close to his highest lead. 3 more.

I feel like this match is over.

So do plenty of other people. console just likes to belittle everyone else in the process, hence why you can probably get all of his posts deleted for trolling if you bothered marking them.

This is a recent thing. Just ignore or mark the posts. Problem solved.

They're a somewhat decent measuring stick, but people take them to far. Assuming that characters stay static, or that the xstats are 100% acurrate is unhealthy for your bracket.

Ive seen Consolefreak post quite a bit, And he is annoying. I possibly think he is more of a troll with his opinions like I am. :)

Squall with a good update.


Now, 10 more like that and we will be in good shape.

Heh, this is amazing. Anyone want to wager when a lead of 200 will be amassed?

Board 8: Where people treat each other right.

You can get the stats to tell you whatever you want to hear.

I think that Tanner rSFFd Solid Snake. If we adjust Solid Snake's Xst value to account for the fact that he should have scored 99.89% of the votes in that match, he wins the contest like he deserves.

Summer Contest 2005 Winner: Mario
Mario will SFF Samus, and pull it out against Crono.

This is Vincent's second biggest lead of the match. Pretty big update coming up in about three minutes.

Board 8: Where people treat each other right.

Oh and does anyone remember one of the early trailers of MGS3 when Snake is being chased by some dogs and he jumps off the waterfall while yelling? I would like to know who does the music their, It's so awesome.

Oh, It's also in the intron in MGS2:Substance.

since this is the weekend the morning/day vote are combined, but the full day vote should start in about 1 hour or two.

this match happening on a weekend sure helps vote totals. This may be one case where Squall's getting anti-voted could actually cost him a match.
