If Ganon loses to Vincent I think I'm going to be forced to slaughter HM's family. The only thing I hate about having him win the whole male bracket is that if he goes down 1st round I can kiss my bracket goodbyeeeeee.

Think about what happens when Ganon wins the whole male brakcet though. You get to place second or third after me. ;)


And this Vincent nonsense will disappear on the 14th. Believe.

It's cute how HM can call MM > Samus crazy in the same breath as explaining how Ganondorf is going to win the male bracket.

You'll be the crazy one after this contest is over. Just you wait!!

Because MM is the KING OF NINTENDO SFF

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1352

So, uh...if Nintendo is the King of SFF, and this is obviously a match with major SFF, why do you have Aeris > Zelda?

Luigi's and Yoshi's matches proved that Pac-Man is a Nintendo character. And if Pac-Man is Nintendo, the even stronger Ms. Pac-Man is surely Nintendo as well! Mega Man made her look even worse than Pac-Man, which is quite a feat. And let's not forget his brutal SFFing of the godlike Mr. Resetti!!

H__RR____H | Posted 9/3/2006 11:06:12 AM | message detail
I'll ask again for those who say Crono won't be SFF'd by Cloud or Sephiroth: since it's been seen several times that Cloud and Sephiroth will be splitting votes in the Battle Royal, how come I see nobody taking Crono to outlast Cloud or Sephiroth? Crono's not that far behind them, and if they's split fairly even (or especially if Cloud or Sephiroth has a decisive lead over the other one), then Crono should be able to outlast one of them since he can resist SFF, supposedly...

...so where's that kind of support?

TG:

A) How won't they? We've seen two head-to-head matches between them that say they're pretty close to each other, and using Link as a common opponent last year only supports this.

B) If they DON'T split votes and instead one has a decisive advantage over the other, that makes it even MORE likely for Crono to outlast one of them, assuming Crono can't be SFF'd like I've heard be said.

therealmnm | Posted 9/3/2006 12:36:48 PM | message detail
Meh, I really have a hard time believing that Crono does well in a 6-way favorites poll including Cloud or Sephiroth, along with Mario and Link. All of those should be getting more votes than Crono in such a poll BEFORE SFF hits. If Cloud or Sephiroth do end up SFF'ing him, I doubt he even gets out of the first poll...

Well, personally I do think it's a possibility. But it seems a lot safer to me to have the male winner in 5th, considering that even if it did happen that way you'd still need a lot of guesswork to get the order correct.

No guesswork necessary -- if you don't think Crono gets SFF'd, Crono cannot finish lower than 4th, since he would outlast Samus and one of the two FF7 characters. The only guesswork is if Crono gets SFF'd or not.

Not true. The total number of people who like either Cloud or Sephiroth as a favorite overall character can very well be double the amount of the people who have Crono as a favorite. Thinking about it, does it really sound that farfetched? Think about the amount of Sephiroth and Cloud fanboys that you see around the site. You don't think they double the amount of Crono fanboys?

I've stated many times how poor of a representation of Board 8's tastes that is. It's a fun little thing, but not much more.

I mean, c'mon -- would you really think that Board 8's favorite character, lack of anti-votes in that format or not, is Cloud Strife?
