Me neither! I was tempted to take her over Sonic though. Man, we need a bracket. Tifa/Aerith overperformance with 45%+ on Samus? Believe --- The winner begins with Z1m and ends with Zum... This is the truth! This is my belief! ...At least for now. |

That's stupid. You should make a new topic when the old one is full,
there's no point in having one waiting around. It just takes up space. The n00b just wanted some publicity, I call trolling. --- No sig = No Friends. - Villainous Mr Bucket |

That's stupid. You should make a new topic when the old one is full,
there's no point in having one waiting around. It just takes up space. I highly doubt a topic with only 20 replies fills up much space on CJay's servers. And this is done because trolls love to create the new stats topic when the old one ends and before a stats member could put up the next one. --- After the Series Contest, Z1mZum is now the guy I want to be like! |

It was asked about earlier, so...about the FF7-fave poll being redone:
I made a feedback ticket afew weeks ago asking for it to be redone now
that FF:AC is out and DoC hasn't been released yet... ...went to "Read" the next day. Then again though, the same thing happened with my Mario-fave poll months ago, too..... --- Z1mZum performed a hit and run on me in the Guru Contest. It still hurts to be rear-ended like that..... |

I'd like to see some Favorite Final Fantasy polls with FFVII withheld,
just to see the results. Seeing what game wins without FFVII, seeing
how badly Squall slaughters the rest without Cloud, seeing how much
Kefka can actually get without Sephiroth. --- Squall, Tidus, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden Presea, Chun-Li, Tifa, Celes, Quistis, Amy Rose, Mei Ling |

As if anyone could enjoy that awkward th sound instead of a simple s. Even though it's pronounced "Air-iss" either way, which makes me wonder why people prefer "Aerith" when it's not even pronounced that way. --- Squall, Tidus, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden Presea, Chun-Li, Tifa, Celes, Quistis, Amy Rose, Mei Ling |

Thank you! As if anyone could enjoy that awkward th sound instead of a simple s. It's pronounced the same way regardless of spelling. But Square's official spelling of the name seems to be "Aerith" now anyway. --- The winner begins with Z1m and ends with Zum... This is the truth! This is my belief! ...At least for now. |

Since the last really wasn't a big deal or anything ... Vincent v. Solid Snake -- Who wins! Keeping in mind, of course, Dirge of Cerberus is coming out August 15th, 2006! I could definitely see Vincent being stronger indirectly (and taking Sonic or Mega Man out directly, if only a small chance), but against Snake, I just don't see it happening. I do believe there'd be a lot of SFF in that match, and even if history tells us that FFVII takes the SFF (FFVII - MGS, Sephiroth - Liquid), it's Solid Snake. As much as I would vote FFVII over MGS and Sephiroth over Liquid I'd vote Snake over Vincent in similar fashion. I'm not saying it couldn't happen at all, but I see him taking out Sonic and Mega Man before Snake. --- Nominate Vincent Valentine for the character battle! |

That's pretty silly then. With the power of the internet, people can
actually argue about the difference (And, of course, with the power of
the internet, more people can not care than ever) --- Andel thought he was the only one capable of not living up to a bet. [King of Board 8] |

I'd sooner be inclined to say there's no SFF at all than to say FFVII gets SFF'd. ...Unless we're talking about somebody like Cait Sith or Palmer. --- Squall, Tidus, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden Presea, Chun-Li, Tifa, Celes, Quistis, Amy Rose, Mei Ling |
