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

Eh true enough. I'll end up losing more points to Midna's collapse anyway, so I dwell on that for a day!

How do Link, Ganon and Zelda all boost 3% from TP, while Midna herself can't be twice as popular as Tingle afterwards?

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.

SSB.

Watch Midna defeat Zelda next year after she gets that. >_<

Rapid analysis, accurate judgment, and superb powers of concentration. That is all we need.
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/6/2007 1:16:34 PM | message detail
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.

As silly as CNET can be, it was either them or no site. I'd rather have them. And if you get a chance, check out the review updates. It was very well-done.

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.

MMXcalibur | Posted 9/6/2007 1:19:07 PM | message detail
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.

BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/6/2007 1:19:41 PM | message detail
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.

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!?

And did you know there's hentai of Navi, and the 3 Godesses?

lol internet

About the best picture Fenix could've hoped for... and the worst for Kefka. The best opportunity for Marcus > Kefka right here

Yay, Ocelot gets his classic MGS art and I maintain my confidence in Jill (not that I had much doubt). MGS3 Ocelot might've made me sweat.

Jesus, Shadow looks badass as hell. I wouldn't expect him to give Auron a scare, but we haven't seen him in awhile and I've always suspected he was significantly stronger than Knuckles...
