Frog, take a bow. <applauds> God I love Frog. Frog's Theme on repeat since 10:25 CST? Hell yeah. Agreed. His theme is just too damn good.

150 vote at the freeze... and the Power Hour character is down? After
the first 3 days I don't want to say anything, but things look really
good for Scorpion right now, and I'm angry. :( --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

At the least, I'm liking the fact I went with Scorpion in round 3 over
Midna, although she's not out of the running for first yet or anything. --- Experiment status report update: Metroid project 'Dread' is nearing the final stages of completion. |

I didn't think I'd be saying this, but I am sure glad I have Frog in Round 3. Or maybe Scorpion wants to relive 2002. --- Donkey Kong Country 2 for next Games contest. This line reserved for next Guru winner. Unless it's me, therefore reserving plenty of noms for Dixie/DKC2. |

To those people saying people shouldn't be calling matches after what
we just witness in the last hour, well, we've been around a lot longer
than that...I do agree people often jump to conclusions too much after
5 minutes, but that's usually because known trends contradict those
conclusions. In this case, known trends are what support them. Midna is not looking good to finish 1st here. She could come back, but Scorpion is looking pretty right now. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

argh, I almost went to Scorpion > Midna, but resisted. oh well, at
least my round 3 looks good. Frog needed a miracle and a few dozen
rallyers to beat freaking Axel. Scorpion will be the heavy favourite if he holds on here, because Midna's not going to do any better with Samus in the poll. --- http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/258/cloudvsjillvsocloectvsmfw4.jpg now playing: PW3, Jeanne d'Arc |

Like I said somewhere else, it was massive amounts of rallying that put
Frog through. I have a topic on LL with 76 responses, somebody made one
on the Chrono Compendium, and a friend of mine got his WoW guild to
vote for Frog. Never underestimate the hardcore character's ability to
last minute rally TuRtLe ~~~ "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

My main qualm with Midna is that she's never had anything approaching
an appealing design, but Zeldafear is what made me give her the nod
here. But you could never know, this could just be some power from Scorpion here or the nature of four-way battles. Scorps looks pretty badass at any rate... --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |
