| Out of the nomination rally characters last year,
Kerrigan was the only one I didn't nominate (mostly because I've never
played Starcraft). I nominated Lloyd, Leon, Tifa, and Ocelot. This
year, I nominated Raiden, Sub-Zero, Nightmare, Captain Falcon, and
Prince of Persia, so that means all of them. --- Currently Playing: Okami, King of Fighters 2002/2003, Gradius V |

I'm still bitter about Kerrigan, mind you! She should have never beaten
Sub-Zero! She would've never been in SC2K5, and seeing her lose
pathetically to Terra this year would've actually made that match
somewhat amusing! --- Captain Jack Sparrow's Run to the NCAA Character Contest II Championship: Week 5: W, 35-15 vs. Darkwing Duck |

I gotta admit, Kerrigan is the worst thing to come outta any of these
board rallies. Shes a good character mind you, but she has no damn
strength at all. --- Proud Member of The Bonne Pirate Family and Creator of the Servbots! WWEGSB Hardcore Legend and Board 8er Masa/Hiko |

We usually know when such fave-polls are ****ed up though and aren't
applicable to contest settings -- namely, Yoshi and Knuckles.
Otherwise, they're not failed us too much...and there was a good case
for Sub-Zero being stronger than Scorpion before the poll anyway, so
it's not like it's JUST the poll or JUST the releases... ...plus, after seeing Alucard get killed, I'm not buying KH2 doing nothing for Auron. Crono might SFF him enough to make it look like that, but even if he does I won't buy that. --- http://wemajor12.myrockinprofile.com/ Next celebrity I hope to out-rank: Adam Sandler (#1) |

Yeah, and Servbot would beat Tron Bonne. And don't expect any SFF in Crono/Auron. --- Captain Jack Sparrow's Run to the NCAA Character Contest II Championship: Week 5: W, 35-15 vs. Darkwing Duck |

I don't expect much, if any, but I would buy Crono SFF'ing Auron before I buy KH2 not helping Auron. --- http://wemajor12.myrockinprofile.com/ Next celebrity I hope to out-rank: Adam Sandler (#1) |

Yeah, unless Auron just gets outright killed by Crono I think it's safe
to say there will be no SFF there. Though there would be a plus to that
(i.e. Zidane having decent strength). --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

If Tron Bonne broke 40% on Vyse, I'd pay you $100. I'm holding you to that bet.

chance besides being smashed by Crono. --- Do you really need me to bring out the Ovaltine?-Stripey12isback on why hes a war hero. |
