The same can be said for Kirby though, keep in mind. --- Z1mZum performed a hit and run on me in the Guru Contest. It still hurts to be rear-ended like that..... |

I don't remember Kirby's matches being remembered for vote-drawing
power like Luigi's are...and Kirby/Luigi will probably be a relatively
lackluster affair, looking at Kirby/Bowser. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

Nah, I meant Kirby hasn't faced elite competition yet either (barring
Bowser, but I assumed we were meaning THE Noble Nine here). --- Z1mZum performed a hit and run on me in the Guru Contest. It still hurts to be rear-ended like that..... |

Bold hypothesis If Zero/Luigi was held on any other day, the match would've been at least a heck of alot closer TuRtLe ~~~ I used my brain and statistics to make my bracket. Karma Hunter used MGS fanboyism. KH won. Commit it to memory. |

Not a chance. Luigi proved he would have won decisively no matter what
day this match was held on. I have to give the man at least that much
respect. Now it's just a question of whether he can follow this up and truly break his curse. Round 2, baby... --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

Does nobody else find it completely odd that this match of all matches is going for the highest votals?

and in the past 5 hours, Luigi has only gained 200 votes..... *sigh* poor Zero. -_- on a side note - it's too bad we didn't get Captain Falcon vs. Sub-Zero as a 4/5 match. THAT would have sparked some good discussion and been a potentially close match. ah, well. --- i have officially been Z1mZum'D in the guru contest. Vincent Valentine to win the Blast Division!! |

Also Zero doesn't have the complete badass look going for him this time
around. I mean...even if you had never heard of him...you're tempted to
vote for him just based on how damn badass he usually looks. --- God is all knowing......but can he see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch? |

Heh, I was confused that Zero finally had a picture that didn't make
him look like he was completely and utterly dominating his opponent in
terms of attitude...but he really was due. TRUE ELITES DON'T NEED PICTURES TO WIN! Isn't that right, Snake? <_< --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

this match says zilch about Bowser vs. Crono. Crono would need to bomb
in the most incredible way for me to consider Bowser over him. conversely, Bowser would have to get near Mega Man's percentage on Kennedy to consider him a threat to Crono. --- Query "Results" failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax.

| Let's see if the Random Integer magic works again!
The prediction percentage for Luigi/Zero is... RandInt (40,75) =
52%...that's definitely too low. --- Sign the Petition for more stats in the GameFAQs Contests here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=30693799 |

conversely, Bowser would have to get near Mega Man's percentage on Kennedy to consider him a threat to Crono. I checked up on this last night! Bowser needs to get 65% on Leon Kennedy (assuming Leon 2k5 = Leon 2k6) in order to match Crono 2k5's expected percentage. Falcon getting 35% here and Bowser getting around 63 - 64% would be optimal! --- "That's a cruel, rotten, disgusting idea -- and I love it!" |
