Kefka or Pac-Man --- CB5 Oracle Challenge - Today's prediction: Mega Man with 57.05% |

I've always thought of 20% as an imaginary fodder line. Though I suppose a character around there wouldn't be too bad. --- Moltar Status: Feeling good and hot-blooded. Sora vs Mega Man - Bracket: MM - Vote: Sora (76/84) |

I just checked; a character like Viewtiful Joe gets 21.45% on BL. Too high if the fodder line would is 20%. How about 24% on BL? --- Do you really need me to bring out the Ovaltine?-Stripey12isback on why hes a war hero. |

I couldn't get behind Pac-Man. Sure, he probably is at the line and
will probably always be at the line, but when's the last time we've had
a clear read on him? The blob gets SFFed by everything under the sun. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

From UltimaterializerX At this rate, MM may seriously be lucky to break 55%. If he beats Snake after a showing like this, it'll be mighty funny. ~*ST*~ I've been calling this since Mega Man/Axel when all the naysayers were starting the Snake > MM bandwagon. Good to see this little prediction of Snake massively impressing and Mega Man massively disappointing cumlminating in a still comfortable MM win is looking very good right about now. Also, lol gordon freeman's value if this happens. TuRtLe ~~~ 55/62 in the contest. My analysis topic here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=30498383&page=1 |

Reaction to what I missed today: lol luigi gonna massively overperform on sonic and manage to break 55% comfortably lol crono gonna massively overperform on auron and manage to break 55% comfortably lol zero suit samus resulting in a massive overperformance on tifa's part which will make samus look worse than 2k5 sonic TuRtLe ~~~ 55/62 in the contest.

The only two characters who SFF'd Pac-Man were Luigi and
Yoshi...Nintendo characters. I think the reason he was able to beat
Ocelot last year was that he may have benefited from a bit of the
voting pool shift. Regardless, he doesn't get SFF'd by everything
(though he was behind SFF in 2003 thanks to Crono/Kefka). --- Currently Playing: Final Fantasy XII, Tales of the Abyss, King of Fighters 2002/2003 |

Also: lol massive casual support for snake, meaning that if he loses to mega man the prediction % will be under 15% TuRtLe ~~~ 55/62 in the contest. My analysis topic here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=30498383&page=1 |

I'm pretty sure any universally known character could 'SFF' Pac-Man. No
one seems to care about the thing, it literally runs on default votes. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

Pac Man beat Ocelot on recognizability. Put Pac against any unknown/generic looking character and he'll win comfortably. Put him against an icon like Yoshi or Luigi and he bombs. I'd like to see Pac-Man/Kefka if only because they went toe to toe last time, and the younger new voters are likely to vote the iconic Pac-Man over the relatively unknown Kefka TuRtLe ~~~ 55/62 in the contest.

Let me try this again. Using a character as a fodder line is ridiculous. Anyone care if I slap 20% non-SFF on BL to the page? ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest Now Playing: Disgaea 2, KH:COM (Sora), Castlevania: LoI, MMZX |

From KamikazePotato Pac-Man vs. Gordon Freeman Yeah. Pac would take that to the bank and make a deposit. Even with Gordon's HL2 infused power, I think the proud tradition of GFNWEI2k6 will live on should that matchup occur. TuRtLe ~~~ 55/62 in the contest.

For the record, I would pick GF in that match, at least based on where he stand now. --- Do you really need me to bring out the Ovaltine?-Stripey12isback on why hes a war hero. |

No F'ing way does half of GameFAQs know who Gordon Freeman is. That's enough for me to give Pac the nod. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

Sweet, 8 options. I just sent in a POTD request asking for a favorite KH charatcer poll. Hopefully it gets accepted. ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest Now Playing: Disgaea 2, KH:COM (Sora), Castlevania: LoI, MMZX |

You could say the same about Ocelot, really. I don't know. I have to wait and see how strong GF ends up being first. --- Do you really need me to bring out the Ovaltine?-Stripey12isback on why hes a war hero. |

I'd take Pac-Man just because I give him a bit more credit than most and I don't think Gordon Freeman is linear. --- Currently Playing: Final Fantasy XII, Tales of the Abyss, King of Fighters 2002/2003 |

I hope we never get to see another FF6 character in these things again. ...unless it's Kefka, so we can laugh at how pathetic he is at these things and so he can wreck casual brackets in a semi-debatable match. --- Currently Playing: Final Fantasy XII, Tales of the Abyss, King of Fighters 2002/2003 |

Kefka wrecked the casuals against freaking Knuckles. Just put him up against ANYONE non-Noble not named Master Chief and he's liable to break tons of brackets. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

From transience MM's actually doing pretty good here with the night vote. this is the first match this year where he's managed to actually do better with the night vote than with the board vote. Considering he's up against Sora, that kinda loses it's impressiveness. I cringe at what Sora can do with the day vote.
