Round 2 Blast Divisional Semifinals- Match 1 Sonic (1) vs Vincent Valentine (5) http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2523 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2524 Last round, Sonic puts up imperssive numbers on CATS while Vincent performs exactly as the x-stats predicted, despite Ganon likely being underrated and Vincent boosting from AC and DoC. We have no idea where Vincent stands right now. He has a slim to nill chance at the upset, but a chance nonetheless. Sonic 53.79% 50,213 Vincent 46.21% 43,133 TOTAL VOTES 93,345 Take into consideration that Vincent is probably slightly stronger and you have a match that will end up in the 51-52% range. However, trends for the second round have been the statistical favourite impressing greatly in one match, then underperforming the next. Since Mega Man underperformed on Ryu, it means Sonic will overperform on Vincent <_< TuRtLe's Prediction: Sonic with 54.5% TuRtLe's Bracket: Sonic TuRtLe's Vote: Sonic TuRtLe ~~~ 49/54 in the contest.

Crono/Bowser's picture really feels like an epic...meanwhile,
Kirby/Luigi makes me think they had a talk before the photo-shoot where
they agreed no hard feelings no matter who wins. --- http://wemajor12.myrockinprofile.com/ Next celebrity I hope to out-rank: Adam Sandler (#1) |

Sonic: Heh, Noble 9 breaker! We'll see what these fools have to say after the match! Vincent: Lather, rinse, repeat. Lather, rinse, repeat. Kirby: Hiiiiiiiiiii! Luigi: You should-a see what we're doing under the match-a pic! Wawawawawa!! Crono: This match is easy money. Bowser: We'll see about that, Future Trunks! BWAHAHA. Auron: There's a good bench.

Sonic/Vincent is a quality pic -- I don't really feel like giving either the edge pic-wise. Auron/Sub-Zero though...man, we needed CLASSIC Sub-Zero, not that one...but still, I don't think it'll ruin his votes or anything. The benches-remarks are awesome though! --- http://wemajor12.myrockinprofile.com/ Next celebrity I hope to out-rank: Adam Sandler (#1) |
