Only 90.96% for Tifa? That seems kinda low.

Also, it's pretty apparent that weekend = higher votals, who do you think that would benefit in this match, if either?

Neither. Both aren't from really casual games, although FF6 did appear on a Nintendo console, I doubt that'll make much difference.

Oh crap, that's not good.

Although Boss has every reason to take the board/bracket vote.

I was pretty close on my bracket support prediction.

Not a good start for Celes though...

Heh, both characters should have bad day-votes too if their most popular character from each game means anything.....

I fully expect Boss to lead through most of the night.

Here's hoping Celes breaks the FF6 day vote curse.

If Celes doesn't do something tonight, she won't be doing anything at all. FF6's day vote is really bad, even with the opponent being Metal Gear. >>

Man, I hate when people get a match off to a sour note with being obnoxious for no reason at all.

Who was being obnoxious?

FlamboyantSpy | Posted 9/16/2006 9:04:59 PM | message detail
I think the recently higher votals = less support for pre-PSX/N64 games. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see FF6 do significantly worse in a games contest. Still good, but not nearly as strong as it was.

Heh, MGS3 is one of the worst games I've played this generation, and FFVI is one of my favorites of all time, but The Boss is still >>> Celes. Perhaps there are others like me out there.

Maybe it's because I didn't finish FF3/6, but I don't care for Celes...at all. Meanwhile, The Boss is awesome.

I am happy thus far.

Meh, I don't mind The Boss winning at all. I love the hell out of MGS3 even though I still need to go ahead and beat it. It's just that the rampant Metal Gear fanboyism in this topic makes me anti-Metal Gear as far as contests are concerned. <_<
