hmm, looks like that percentage was diving before the freeze. I wouldn't be amazed if this goes under a doubling with the next update.

..then again, it might not, who knows.

Squall looked like he was stabalizing around 70% for a good part of that first minute... that would have been awesome if it stayed that way.

Squall > Solid Snake!

And before anyone asks, no I don't actually believe that.

Overall prediction percentage: 96.53%

Very, very close but 4 perfects had Soma winning which stops them from going perfect. As expected everybody does a great job on this match. All the way down to the -7s manage to break 90. Not only all the 0s but all the 1s also manage to get the match "right". Nobody fell off the Top 50 today.

Tidus 28.1% 363
TOTAL VOTES 1292


WELL..... okay then.

i guess the question is, how much of this is SFF, how much is Kirby being overrated last year, and how much is the site shifting back from NintendoFAQS to SquareFAQS?

Right.

if by "Clobbers" you mean 55%-45% AT BEST.... then sure...

but at this point... I wont be suprised if Squall could win.

Snake has consistently been the weakest of the N9 and has nothing but hype to make seem so big this year. Hype doesnt do much.

Where as Squall had KHII, and has been around Gannon and Bowser in the Xstats in the past... it wouldnt take much for him to surpass Bowser... and we all know how Bowser did against Snake last year.

Ohh and Sir Chris... wanna post that comment I made about Squall right now???

trannyscience | Posted 9/28/2006 9:10:06 PM | message detail
the answer to that question: no one knows. I wouldn't take anything away from this match at all. this is FF8 + KH + KH2 vs. FF10.

Whoah, I can't believe it's still going up. I foolishly thought that squall was going nowhere but down again.

Obviously this is proof that Squall is winning the male bracket! >_>

TCA if you really picked Squall over Snake... I applaud you... I seriously considered it but no way did I want to go there... it still seems unlikely but man... would I BLOW a fuse if even he beat Snake.

Probably. I knew that Tidus was overrated. After all, he had two chances to be (Kirby/Bowser and Bowser/Snake)

Squall is far from a "god" but he may just be pushing to himself to a solid upper tier tournament goer.

Eh.. i still don't give Squall much of a chance on Snake but if he did squeek by Snake .. It would be the best day of my life on Gamefaqs other than the day Cloud defeated Link in 2003 .. That was priceless and unexpected.

hmm.. I wonder if FF10 will get the overnight vote like it did all last year. man, last year Knuckles held the lead on Squall for like ten minutes. I didn't think the board vote really favoured Squall at all.

..hm. I do feel better about having Zero over Kirby, but I can't say this is definite proof. just a possibility.

Eh, I'd say 55/45. This seems kind of familiar to the Zelda over Snake debates...

Tidus' 2k5 value is based directly off kirby since kirby beat him last year. There's talk of both kirby overperforming on bowser and bowser overperforming on snake. This would add credence to such arguments, although if you ask me it's just tidus being pathetic again and getting sff'd.
