No, it's not. You really think Big Boss got enough nominations for a 1 seed? Because he didn't, and if you tell me he did, I'm going to download gamefox, and put you on my blocklist for being mentally challenged. If SB has the smarts to combine "Big Boss" with the "MGS3 guy", then it's not impossible. We know how strong Snake has become and how popular MGS3 is...and BB got a melted art pic in 2k5 (always a bad sign) and was portrayed as his old-school metal gear self. If all the big guns' supporters were complacent (thought Mario was getting in anyway, didn't nom him) then I think he might. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

Why would he get a higher nomination this year then he did last year? I
seriously doubt people nominated Naked Snake last year, and Ceej simply
ignored all the nominations and threw them out, all he did was change
the name to Big Boss for the contest. --- mmm feel the vibration baby |

Oh, they mean something. All of the characters we see are more or less assured to make it into the contest, though I doubt the seeding/matches are reliable. Again, ZELOS. --- It's not trolling. It's Justice. AIR CONDITIONER. |

XIII, Axel had two nominations at the last B8 tally. Two. Yet he get a
1-seed based on nominations, according to you. Mewtwo had over 100.
Now, if you want to believe that all of the characters listed here had
enough noms to make it in, fine. If you think this "bracket" is
entirely nomination based... I'm sorry, but that's beyond stupid. --- That... was her final mission. And like a true soldier, she saw it through the end. ZSB [aX] |

Agent 47 and Arthas having 3 seeds and Kefka having a 1 seed despite not making the field last year kinda makes it obvious that it's random. |

I would say, if you haven't see a guy in a contest
before but he's on these new whacky brackets, then I'd say it's a good
chance he's in. Everyone else - who knows. Maybe someone like Pyramid
Head is in because they went with a 128 comprehensive bracket with a
few newcomers. Maybe he's just sitting in a table somewhere being
grabbed by whatever sql command grabbed him for no real reason. --- cherish the certainty of now it kills you a bit at a time |

And if it's 128, who else would we see? I think Protoman is definite, and we'll probably see Balthier and Basch from FF12. Maybe Ashe too. TuRtLe ~~~ "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |
