Also, even if Snake is this strong indirectly, he still could end up
being screwed against the upper half of the noble nine, and in the
battle royale. We've already established that there's at least some
FF-MGS SFF. And if this new strength is from SSBB loyalty, then Snake
will be suseptible to Nintendo SFF. In short, he could be the most
SFF-able character in this contest. --- "Some say there's no subtelty to destruction. You know what? They're dead!" --Jaya Ballard, Task Mage. |

Still enough to beat Samus and potentially Mario with ease. ~~~ The one. The only. Lady Ashe. |

Yoshi's 2006 value will be awesome, don't deny it. And lol @ Sonic desperately trying to end above MM. Let's see if he'll make it. --- Moltar Status: 17th on the leaderboard! Go my alt! Snake vs. Sonic - Bracket: N/A - Vote: Snake (120/144) |

Usually it lasts until the early afternoon, then it slows down, and
later, the "night vote character" makes small gains. (I like using
Chun/Lara to determine how the weekday vote goes, and Crono/Bowser
followed the pattern too) --- Moltar Status: 17th on the leaderboard! Go my alt! Snake vs. Sonic - Bracket: N/A - Vote: Snake (120/144) |

Snake can still hold his own against just about any character in this contest. In fact, Snake has held his own against every character thrown against him in this contest. And any FF-MGS SFF in existence wouldn't always -- in fact, it probably wouldn't even often -- help the FF character against a character like Solid Mother****ing Snake. Snake would still beat Crono if Crono had beaten Sonic. Snake would still beat any FF character in this bracket, including Tifa or Vincent, without breaking too hard a sweat. He'd still beat any Nintendo character in this contest, espesically in a non-sprite round; you're kidding yourself if you think Ganondorf or Bowser would have gotten close. |

tranny, I demand to see your pre-contest stats. plz >_> I didn't make any.. if I had it would have looked something like this though: Samus - 50.00 Crono - 48.99% Sonic - 48.55% Mega Man - 47.67% Snake - 45.66% just on a guess. --- xyzzy |

You guys think Snake will be retired if he keeps this up? I mean, it's possible no one finishes above 45% on him. Crono did better than that last year on Mario... --- "No, not just an urge - more than that. It was my destiny to be here; in the box." - Naked Snake |

What's suspicious about them? It's the Male Final, it should have high votals. Luigi is a much bigger vote drawer than Snake, and his Sonic match was also on a Sunday. Yet there is a huge difference in votals. It just seems strange, coupled with the strange result. --- Smurf The cream of Sonic Fanboyism. FOREVER INFERIOR TO HARMONICA. |

I'm sure some of Snakes current strength is down to him being favorite
to win. Just like Mario last year, he will have gotten a boost from
that. Combine that with SSBB and MGS4 hype. And well, we get this. --- Ahem! There's LETTUCE on my boots! |
| MasterOfHunters | Posted 11/12/2006 9:43:30 AM | message detail |

I'm gonna go ahead and be the first to say it: PATRIOT DIVISION NEEDS TO BE ADJUSTED DOWN. The second SSBB Trailer was released in between Snake/Yoshi and Snake/Mega Man, and it predominantly featured Snake, and could explain why the Patriot Division seems so high compared to the others. --- Gordon Freeman finally won, but somehow, the universe survived... thus allowing me to tell said universe about how I was owned by NClark128. |

It's going to be interesting to see the prediction percentage for Snake
winning the entire contest. (Which I'm sure he is going to do.) I'm guessing it's going be around 30-25%. --- And I need all the love I can get And I need all the love that I can't get to(o) |

From Karma Hunter I don't think Mega Man is perfectly constant, but I maintained from the beginning that was a very viable possibility, and there's a reason why I had him as the favorite against Snake right up until that match. Mega Man dropping isn't out of the question. Mega Man dropping to the extent it appeared is certainly out now, as Snake is brutally proving. You never maintained from the beginning nothing. Every time I said MM was constant you jumped down my throat with "lol turtle-stats" From Karma Hunter No way Sonic gains as much as Knuckles in the day, let alone on this Snake. He'll be doing very, VERY good to outdo MM's performance. Why do you continue to believe that Knuckles has a stronger day vote than Sonic? Why do you keep ignoring the fact that Knuckles has ALWAYS faced vampiric characters like past-Snake, Kefka and Yuna while Sonic almost always goes up against people decent with the day vote?
