As for Snake, I don't know unless MGS4 is a huge hit here at GameFAQs I don't think he'll be near Sonic.

I don't think you understood the comment...

If Mario can push Crono down to 44.31%, Snake = Sonic.

It could happen.

It took Crono all day to just get what Mario is getting, but then again during the morning Mario took a lot of the percent.

The only downside to this match is that Zero is going to knock Luigi out of the top 16 in the unadjusteds.

Heh, that'd be nice.


As a side-note, not counting the ToC, our newest Ultimate Loser is none other than KOS-MOS. A strange edition, if you ask me, but nonetheless a welcome one; she joins Gordon Freeman, Ryo Hazuki, River City Ransom, Viewtiful Joe, and Luca Blight.

I was thinking about that yesterday, and had Mega Man pulled out the win (and gone on to predictably lose to Mario), our Ultimate Loser would have been none other than Magus.

My, God, that's right. I can't believe we didn't rally up to try to make this happen due to a certain Magus fanboy always ridiculing stats in a stats discussion topic. =P

And it was clear that Mario losing today was impossible, because then the Ultimate Loser would have been the King of All Cosmos and we all know that isn't happening.

All money still on Samus. Not like there's a reason not to, unless Crono can SFF her somehow.

Mario only gained a vote that update. I think he'll be under 53% during school hours.

Nah, no reason to believe Samus would get SFF'd by Crono...it was more a question of how much SFF Samus really suffered against Mario.

From: Karma Hunter | Posted: 9/19/2005 6:31:42 AM | Message Detail
Well, yeah, that's what I meant. It's obvious that he SFF'd her, and quite a bit, so I'd rather give 40% on Cloud the benefit of the doubt, even if she has dropped a smidge.

From: HaRRicH | Posted: 9/19/2005 6:38:18 AM | Message Detail
I've lost alot of faith in Samus being SFF'd THAT much, myself. I could buy a lil', but I'm a doubter that Samus was SFF'd 7% against Mario, especially when they are as well-known and as strong as they are. I know Crono's gonna go down in percentage as the day goes on, making Samus > Crono more possible...but I remain skeptical on it until further notice.

Now, until further notice, I nap. God, am I tired.....

There is one, and ONLY one Nintendo character that Mario has failed to SFF brutally, and that character is a two-time winner of this contest. Samus didn't disappoint in any of her matches this year, it's just that Mario was...well, Mario.

It wouldn't matter, since I don't think Mario would break 45% against the winner (40% he should)

i thin both matches would be great. they would either tell us just how strong ff7 really is, or just how much of "the king of all that is nintendo title" link has maintained.

A Mario win with 55%+ is much more likely to occur than any sort of fantastically tight match. This won't be close.

Hey, Slowflake did it. >_>

Oh, and even if Mario reaches 55%, it's still not enough to deny AC had a considerable effect on Crono/Vincent. Enough to peg Squall at 34% on BL and Dante and Knuckles at 32%.

And I shall call it DDF! <_<

56.5%-43.5%

I'm almost sure that Sephiroth dropped since last year (if AC did nothing)

Only 56.5%? That's not actually that bad, considering if Mario can pull some magic with the day vote.

Then again, as I've said, while he might be able to stand up to the weakening Seph we've seen recently...AC might just put the match right out of reach for him.

Especially given what it did for Vincent... looks more and more like Crono should've scored in the very high 50s there.

Random thought: ... damn is Freeman going to look good.

Mario is going to pwn. AC didn't do anything. Very few people outside of the FF7 fanbase will have heard about the movie, or bothered to pirate it.

Mario just fell below 53% and lost a vote on that update.

Hopefully the day vote will be nicer to him.
