He was apparently accounting for Crono/Magus SFF (bwahahaha, owned).

Yeah; having this my way, Knuckles would never be that low on any list. Unadjusted sucks like that, heh.

Considering that my score is currently the lowest in the Guru Contest, I'm sure my X-Stats would've been much worse. Then again at least my Devil division would've looked fine!... uh... y'know... SFF-wise.

Heh, these were never aimed for accuracy though. When I went through my head of how matches should roughly go, I picked a pretty solid number and went on in a matter of seconds usually. From there, well, we have Lloyd > Luigi.

Funny, I'd go with Snake without hesitation. I have no doubt that Sora would own Diablo decisively, and Zelda would do the same to Tifa.

As for your sig...Vagrant Story > KotOR.

I dunno if this sounds strange or not...but while I agree Sora > Diablo, I'm not so sure Zelda > Tifa. Perhaps it's just a mental block of mine, but it seems confusing to me.

I'm blaming it on my Spanish homework right now.

Hm, since I think Xstats as a whole are a joke, I'd just say if you think Snake>Sonic, you're in for a disappointment.

And Vagrant Story would need to work out its monotonous dungeon crawling and tedious weapon system before it could challenge KoTOR.

I tried to get into SW:KotOR, I really did...but not long after I turned into a Jedi, I simply couldn't take any more. I won't say it's over-rated, but it's not my cup of tea.

From: Karma Hunter | Posted: 9/11/2005 11:07:17 PM | Message Detail
I'm reserving all judgment on this contest until it's done...hell, I'd probably feel safer taking Snake over Mega Man or even Crono than over Sonic. Not that I'd feel safe AT ALL, but you get the point.

Snake has to show me he's 4 REAL before I'm comfortable taking him over other Noble Niners--break 55-56% against Bowser, and I'm a believer.

45% for Sonic. He's always been somewhat underestimated, and I'm confident Tifa + Luigi are capable of stealing 25% more of his brackets.

Snake will be > Sonic. Book it.

And I think Yoshi may end up giving MM a run for it, though I still think MM trumps him with 55, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it closer.

So, if Sonic>MM, Crono>MM, and Samus>Crono, I think we'll be seeing a possibly Tanner>Ocelot going here...

"Wow, Mega Man has to be the favorite against Crono now!"

Don't know about that (though the match is in doubt, as it was already).

But Sonic/Mega Man is very debatable. Mega looks like he'll be the favorite going into that match.

Looks like Leon was just underrated to a profound degree by the vast majority of us (including myself).

68.51% at the first freeze. I am more impressed in Leon's performance than I am with Mega Man's (in today's match, that is), especially since Leon did so poorly against GFNW.

Heh, this is certainly very interesting. If this percentage holds up (it won't, but just imagine for ****s and giggles, k?), Mega Man is officially more Nintendo than Capcom.

And Yoshi is probably one of my top 5 characters in the contest, but this is still awesome to see.

Ah, c'mon Yoshi, what the heck!! 31.49 after the freeze! Ugh!! At least he was in the lead in the first second, that was so good to see. I like MM and all, but Mega, YOU CAN SLOW DOWN ANYTIME NOW! Yoshi better bring his % up by a lot during the day.... Leon > Yoshi is NOT an option.

I've always hated the concept of the Noble Nine, but this looks to be the first year that it really seems to hold value as a concept.

They've really established themselves this year, more than in any previous year, as separated from everyone else.

Bowser is now our Only Hope. But perhaps it's a fool's hope.

Mega Man is officially more Nintendo than Capcom

He was always more Nintendo than Capcom in the minds of people around here.
