So uhh... anyone up for nominating Lara Croft? >_> I need more female characters... --- Those people who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do. ~Isaac Asimov Arkenaga|aganekrA |

So Princess Peach finally gets in, huh? --- it's CJayC. He's probably been meaning to make such a feature for 5 years but hasn't gotten around to it yet. - Ulti |

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=197 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=225 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=261 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=771 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1869 Just a quick case for Kirby hardly being strong, for those interested. For what's arguably his biggest console release, landing between "There's nothing good out this month" and "Other" isn't good for Kirby's series, and we see that it wasn't so well-received here afterwards. We know the third poll is outdated, but it's also the last poll like it we've seen for Kirby, and Kirby's noticably below MOTHER in it (interesting to note that, no matter how several of us think SF64 would do good, Star Fox is dead-last in it). We also see two handheld games bomb for Kirby in GotY polls (not unexpectedly, however). --- Miss my Four-Pack Of Fun? Go here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/gentopic.php?board=585007 |

It is, however, good news for The Boss, and that's never a bad thing. --- Pity for the guilty is treason to the innocent. |

Wait...Knuckles is in BIG danger of missing the contest if it's 32 males and 32 females...

Another question, will any female side characters make it in games
while the main character doesn't? (Like Krystal from SFA making it
while Fox doesn't). --- sig |

For the guys: Fox McCloud, Captain Falcon, Leon (RE4), Sub-Zero, Nightmare, and the Prince of Persia. For the girls: Samus, Zelda, Peach, Lyndis, Aeris, Garnet. I'm saving my seventh in each just in case if there is anybody I think of at the last minute who I'm forgetting, or if there is someone I promised a nomination for that I may have forgotten as well. --- Upon having Rosie O'Donnell corner him in the forest, the pizza delivery man knew how a Goomba felt when Mario got a star. ~ SSJ3 Popo |

I can't really think of many females to nominate other than The Boss,
Sheena, and Presea. I don't like many females, and the few I do like
have either already been extremely disappointing (Kerrigan and Terra,
I'm looking at you) or would be. --- That... was her final mission. And like a true soldier, she saw it through the end. ZSB [aX] |

I don't want to be a walking advertisement, but just a reminder to all
who said they would nominate Fox to please do so. It's going to be a
lot tougher to get him in based on the nominations, and considering
that I was planning to start up the nomination drive later on, a lot of
people have forgot about him. Please nominate Fox McCloud! --- - "ertyu is actually a language. For example, 'dum' is ertyunese for 'godly'." - Topaz Kitsune Not changing signature until HHH pedigrees Candice through a table. 07/07/06 |

Duh, Lenneth. Even though she'd be incredibly weak, she'd make good
fodder. There's four. I'll leave one spot open on each just incase the
guru thing is decided. --- That... was her final mission. And like a true soldier, she saw it through the end. ZSB [aX] |

Your Male Character Nominations Sub-Zero Captain Falcon Raiden Prince of Persia Nightmare Knuckles Jay Solano I like mine -- loyal to the board AND Knuckles, hard to complain.

Ok fanbabies and fans... Had I won the Guru contest, I would have ordered all of you to nominate Kitana from MK to the contest.

Why is everyone assuming that it'll be divided? Perhaps Ceej is just
using this as a means to guarentee a large shakeup in the bracket. --- R.I.P. yoblazer33, murdered in cold blood by Sir Chris. Detective in Sir Chris' Police |

Thanks to the Nomination and Soul's rally, and my own personal conquest
of fandom with Wario and Ridley (I can dream >_>;) I only had 1
male nomination left. Leon FTW! And I can see it now, Mother Brain returns whilst Ridley doesn't... Boo. --- it's CJayC. He's probably been meaning to make such a feature for 5 years but hasn't gotten around to it yet. - Ulti |

Gurus! Leave one spot open in both your male and female nomination forms! Whoo hoo for having the Summer Contest still in the Summer, but d'oh for us still not knowing who wins the current Contest.

So far... Your Male Character Nominations Laguna Raiden Strider Serge Nightmare Your Female Character Nominations Aeris Peach Mai Shiranui Seung Mina I have a hold on the last two slots for male. If the person who wins the guru contest wants someone not on my list I want to have the space, but I'm not sure if I'd rather have Jay or Subby for that last slot.

hmm.. here's what I have so far: 1. Jay Solano 2. Serge 3. Citan 4. Prince of Persia Females: 1. ..uhh... I'll have to think about this.
