I wouldn't go that far (Bacon has implemented some *great* ideas; go contribute more and you'd notice) Veasey had the great idea of coming up with this site and message boards, but rapidly detoriated into total crap. Great ideas =/= a good admin. Cjay's complete lack of control over his mod staff is hopefully something that won't continue, but on this evidence...yeah. I have a hard time believing anybody is THAT stupid. Then you need more internet experience, because said people exist. *reads the rest of your post* Yeah, shut the hell up. I'm just not going to bother with your abject idiocy any more. And I'm annoyed that an amazing comeback was sullied by Frog's cheating,moreso than my bracket which was in shreds anyway --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

Frog's only anomalies at that time were the random drops for no reason.
And we see that in every match. Unless you think Frog should be getting
considerably less vote percentages by comparison at 9:00 than he was
getting during the after school vote. TuRtLe ~~~ "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

I never understood where the Midna bandwagon came from. When I first
did my bracket I reluctantly put Scorpion first over her, but I already
had misgivings due to how much a steaming pile he was. Then when people
were saying Midna was more than neo-Navi I suppose I got swept away by
the Zeldafear. No matter. Today's 2 points mean nothing to the many many points I'll get when Pikachu and Zero pay off. TuRtLe ~~~ "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

I was actually more concerned about Kratos beating Midna today than I
was Midna beating Scorpion. I thought there'd only be 1 or 2%
difference between the two. I really liked TP but for some reason it
seems most people have complaints. I guess it just lives in OoT's
shadow. --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

The only "whiny" posts I remember making is asking how in the hell Axel
had suddenly started making his comeback from 1900 votes down over what
I believed to be a superior Frog. I agree, the end hour was very suspicious with the kinds of numbers that Frog was putting up after being driven to the dirt for hours on end, but I'm sure Allen would have submitted a topic if he had seen something wrong. I won't disagree with you there but get the chip off your shoulder. It's very out of character for you. --- KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (0-0) : AFC Wildcard NEXT: at Houston Texans (0-0) |

That's another thing neon, there really isn't much he can do. If the
script was successful, than Frog won another close match with a last
minute comeback to a cheating method that may or may not have been used
to get Axel votes too. If it wasn't the reason for the comeback, then he ruined a perfectly legal/legitimate comeback by taking away votes. Really, the only thing he can do is close the votes off to registered users, which is just a terrible idea no matter how you slice it.

Answer: Blind fanboyism mixed with ignorance/blind hatred towards a
popular mainstream game. I don't think Fenix will be like Kratos, but
he's up against Kefka and Zelos. You won't need much to get past those 2. If Tommy Vercetti could do it 3 years after his prime, in the midst of anti-mainstreamFAQs, then I have faith that Fenix can pull it off.

Back from work. I expected Scorpion to get first, he is a complete dark horse and I knew he would be able to overtake Midna. Yes, she is a Zelda character, but from one game that isn't even a year old so I never felt she had the exposure Ganondorf had (from multiple games) or Chrono (from age). Agent 47 is going pretty well given circumstances, he isn't complete fodder. Kratos A I was watching as well because I was curious if ToS would hold support or fade away. Looks like he's staying relevant. --- Today's Subliminal Thought Is: |
| BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/6/2007 2:15:19 PM | message detail |

Staying relevant? If my thoughts are correct, he's even crappier than he was last time we saw him. Scorpion is still crap, it just turned out that Midna is at Tingle levels, except without the support of 4chan behind her.

I didn't believe what Ulti said about the Midna hentai, so I checked *SPOILERS* myself to see. In the Zelda section, Midna has the most pictures in her subsection at 151. The next highest is The Wind Waker at 51 pics and Zelda herself at 43. Then looking at the views, Midna is over 1.5 million views compared to Zelda in second with just over 400,000 WTF!?
