Zelda got very, very close to 100,000 against Metal Gear, which is good enough, I think. Besides, there is no way Mario is stronger than Zelda, not on Gamefaqs. --- 3rd overall in the "10 Best Games Ever" contest (Score 11/27%). 15th overall in the "Summer 2005 Character Contest" (Score 204). |

Yeah, creative, how about your sig and ONE nom? <_< Alright I suppose. I'd rather do more noms, they're more useful, but that's fine. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

And yesterday I would've said there's no way Zelda or Mario are stronger than FF.

I highly doubt there is going to be as large a vote swing as there was in Chrono Trigger/FFVII. The difference between the Super Mario Bros. day vote and the CT would would be quite large, I would imagine. --- "Dropo! You're the laziest man on Mars." The Funky Chickens in Trivia XVIII |

Noms are useful if masses of people get behind them. One person
nominating 1 or 3 things (Who are you planning on asking for, anyway?
Edgey Phoenix or Magus from my end) won't mean a whole lot. ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest Now Playing: Resident Evil 4, KH:COM (Sora), Larussa 92 (NYY) |

Not to mention the SFF in CT/FF7. The problem in that match, is that CT
was the hardc0re game while FF7 was the casual one. Today, FF is the
hardc0r3 series while Mario is the casual one. TuRtLe ~~~ Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy. -trancer1 Nominate Carmen Sandiego for Character Battle V |

| Zelda will do much better than Mario but there is still a possibility that Zelda never leads at all after the first update. |

Regarding Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy clearly shouldn't be getting
58% here. The thing is though that SMB's day vote isn't totally uber,
as shown against SSB. My best guess at the moment would be 54%, but
that could be significantly off. Ulti: Who are you planning on asking for, anyway? Dont' know. There's always somebody. Jericoholic: So, how long will Zelda hold a lead over FF? There's a chance Zelda will run the table and never trail. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I doubt Zelda loses the first 5 minutes to Final Fantasy. Considering how strong the series is, the board freakin hates it. Its at like 25 percent strength in the first 5 minutes. Smash would probably beat it 60-40. |

This is total speculation but given Mario's history we might be seeing
a slight bit of stuffing here for him (which would also inflate the
vote totals a bit). --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
