I would LOVE to see another games contest, but get rid of the
generational gaps that were in the first one and we have ourselves a
kickass contest. TuRtLe ~~~ 35/40 in the contest. My analysis topic here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=30498383&page=1 |

A female villains contest would get the lowest votals out of any
contest I can think of. A contest poll with Tanner vs Jay Solano would
get better votals. --- Demyx > Axel Z1mZum owned me in the Guru Contest with his mad skills! |

A female villain bracket would kick ass only to see Queen Zeal and Azala make the field and perform respectably. Think about it, we could have Mother Brain vs Mother Brain!

Another Games Contest is a definite must. Although, I wouldn't be
against a "Best Merchant/Item Seller" contest. Besides RE4, I don't
think a single other game could put up a merchant able to hold a candle
to Tanner... --- Z1mZum>Redtooth Nice list, I counted twenty that would be in my top ten - BlondeAfroHero7 |

I remember Generic Enemy discussions way back in 2K3 (I wasn't really
around the boards in 2K2, I wouldn't be surprised if they happened
then), though I don't recall them ever leading to hypothetical brackets
or anything. I would LOVE to see another games contest, but get rid of the generational gaps that were in the first one and we have ourselves a kickass contest. Agreed. The generation thing really hurt the contest. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I still say that a best level/world would be better than a female villian contest. There, we might be able to see Zeal become the next Starcraft and upset some really well known areas. --- By the time we localize the programs, kids don’t even know they’re from Japan any more. - 4Kids CEO Al Kahn |

I see no reason whatsoever to even discuss a contest where Kerrigan is
guarenteed an elite 8 spot and has a reasonable shot of making the
finals. --- If this post was overly verbose, that means I tried very hard to not call you an idiot. If you mark someone for flaming/trolling, you probably deserved it. |

I still say that a best level/world would be better than a female villian contest. But this holds true for virtually anything. A power-ups contest would be better. A levels contest would be better. A company contest would be better. Hell, a Super Mario Bros. only power-up contest would be better.

Spreader wouldn't even make it out of round 1, let alone be able to
beat the multitude of SMB power-ups that'd litter the upper half of the
rankings. Thinking about it, a power-up contest would friggin' rock. --- If this post was overly verbose, that means I tried very hard to not call you an idiot. If you mark someone for flaming/trolling, you probably deserved it. |

Won't a Power Ups conteset result in Mushroom domination? The Triforce
might be able to stand a chance, but it doesn't really qualify as a
power up because youi never actually get to use it. --- By the time we localize the programs, kids don’t even know they’re from Japan any more. - 4Kids CEO Al Kahn |

I vote yes on the power-ups contest. That has serious potential, even
though it would get dominated by Mario stuff. At least it'd be funnier

Also, a numebr of those "villains" turned into good girls in their
games. I don't think they'd be eligible as villains under those

Ajora was a male, I'm almost positive. I think he was referred to as masculine (though given the translation, I suppose that isn't conclusive), and MINOR SPOILERS He was supposed to be a Jesus parallel. END SPOILERS --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
