fact or fiction: Mario takes the lead on the board vote vs. Final Fantasy. Initially, or after the first minute? Initially I give a definite yes, after the first minute... tricky. --- Explicit Content Cheer Up Emo Kids |

fact or fiction: Mario takes the lead on the board vote vs. Final Fantasy. How early are we talking? In the first five minutes, maybe. After that, unlikely. --- This was Ed Bellis. |

LoZ might actually hold the lead over it for several updates... Several? Unlikely. Ocarina of Time had no lead ever. --- SC2K6 Nominations: Squall, Roxas, Serge, Seifer, Laguna, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden |

Fact: HM's posting two italicised exclamation marks at the end of every post is getting annoying. --- Angsty_Lou: Everything has a sexual connotation if you just look long and hard enough. Theo72: U SED LONG AND HARD LOL |

It's a fact that if Cloud were present in the picture alone, Final Fantasy would already have the tripling!! And if he were making out with Reno, 90%! Seriously though, if we get user submitted pics again, somebody better create a badass pic with the Final Fantasy side having Cloud making out with Reno. I'd totally mark out. --- Explicit Content Cheer Up Emo Kids |

.02% away from 70% on that update. I'm happy to see it'll at least finish this over 70%. --- "Building the future and keeping the past alive are one in the same thing." -- Solid Snake |

I'm glad that Mega Man is avoiding a tripling, at least. This match still hurts, though. --- Angsty_Lou: Everything has a sexual connotation if you just look long and hard enough. Theo72: U SED LONG AND HARD LOL |

So this is most likely going to end up in the 73% range, give or take.
In other words it doesn't look like it will affect anybody's
expectations much. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I agree !! I'm actually curious to see how Zelda/MMX SFF is in relation to Zelda/Metroid. Metroid has every reason to get hit with more SFF since it shares every system with Zelda, along with the Nintendo name. --- xyzzy I lost a sig bet to War13104.

SNAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lovely looking, isn't it? Oh, and you could maybe relate that to me feeling bad that Metal Gear might not end up as the fourth strongest series.

Man, and I thought my ~70% Crew pick would only be a little low.

Exactly how much would you expect SSB to get on Final Fantasy if they
met? Because there's no way I'm taking Mega Man to take that thing
after seeing what it did to Sonic. --- Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace. These are codes of behavior. |

38% is wayyyy too generous considering SSBM couldn't even get that on Final Fantasy VII. --- SC2K6 Nominations: Squall, Roxas, Serge, Seifer, Laguna, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden |

I really do think the old school sprites (as much as I love them) are
hurting Final Fantasy by at least a point, probably a couple points (I
was thinking this before the match too). This might also make Final
Fantasy's day vote not as pronounced as it would otherwise be. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I'm basing that off of Mega Man staying around 30%. Well, you're basically saying that SSB gets 61.53% on Mega Man in that case. I find that unlikely. --- SC2K6 Nominations: Squall, Roxas, Serge, Seifer, Laguna, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden |
