I ****ing love it. Arthas and Diablo kill each other while KOS-MOS sits
pretty and goes onto the second round. This contest rocks. --- ~*~ExThaNemesis~*~ I do a lot of pushups and situps, and I drink plenty of juice. This bold part is here until the New York Yankees are in first place in the AL East again. 7/2/07 |

Sweet, this is like the perfect storm of situations for KOS-MOS to take
2nd. Tuesday brings in the Arthas vote, Blizzard SFF hurts Diablo just
a little, plus a jug-licious match pic. --- "I didn't think ninjas had super strength!" "He's a doctor too!" |

KOS-MOS almost extended her lead by 50 votes that time. With Arthas
over there messing up Diablo, I'm liking her chances even with the day
vote -- if she keeps this up. --- Experiment status report update: Metroid project 'Dread' is nearing the final stages of completion. |

So...for next year. How about we keep the contest premise the same,
only we have to guess the order of all 4 characters in the match, and
the top 2 still advance. That would make for some interesting
predictions. --- "Opinions are like butts, little girl. Everyone's got one and nobody thinks their's stink." -Lunar 2:EB *Claims KG's Eclair, C.C. & Tear Grants* |

I dunno... this format with games would be absolute insanity without having a straight up Games Contest first... we could have the straight up games contest afterwards and STILL not know how things would turn out because of SFF in the fourways and all that. --- ~*~ExThaNemesis~*~ I do a lot of pushups and situps, and I drink plenty of juice.

I'd *really* rather have a straight up Games. We went to this after

do the same with Games - heck, even the final winner is totally up for

I understand where you're coming from with the straightup games contest
first, but the only real purpose served would be to add predictability
to the Fourway Games Contest.. Either way, I want a Games Contest next. --- ~*~ExThaNemesis~*~ I do a lot of pushups and situps, and I drink plenty of juice. This bold part is here until the New York Yankees are in first place in the AL East again. 7/2/07 |

I have to agree with ExTha there. Having a regular contest beforehand makes the 4 way one just more predictable, a 4 way one after so long...now that one would REALLY mess up with people's heads. --- "Opinions are like butts, little girl.

It makes it about as predictable as the previous character contests made this predictable -- ie, it doesn't.

It makes it about as predictable as the previous character contests made this predictable -- ie, it doesn't. Eh, I've been able to call these first two matches pretty easily. And it would add a lot more predictability than the previous character battles did for this one, considering it will have been FOUR YEARS since we saw a games contest... --- ~*~ExThaNemesis~*~ I do a lot of pushups and situps, and I drink plenty of juice.

Really, it's about longevity. A 1v1 contest for games is plenty
unpredictable at this point, so why go with the four way format when
it's not needed? It's possible that this ridiculous format could get
pretty predictable with repetition too. Then where do you go? Tag team
matches? 8 way matches? --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

That's what I meant though. A 1v1 Games Contest is STILL highly
unpredictable after doing a Fourway one, where-as the Fourway is
considerable LESS unpredictable if you do a 1v1 contest right before it. --- ~*~ExThaNemesis~*~ I do a lot of pushups and situps, and I drink plenty of juice. This bold part is here until the New York Yankees are in first place in the AL East again. 7/2/07 |
