Well even though Marcus is definitely not showing typical day vote
character patterns, he's certainly not showing night-vote character
patterns either. He's just weird --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

Oh, I'm sorry, I misread you - I thought you said that night characters
typically hold on during the mornings. Ignore my last post. --- Mustache...and green... http://www.rit.edu/~zmb0386/Brawl.jpg |

Black turtle is right actually. And yeah, Rydia is the 2nd female FF. Meh, I hope that Kefka is able to get a good lead. Meh, if only he didn't have the unfamous Lettuce pic.... --- Onimimi's films rules! |

Yuffie? At least Tifa had some depth to her. She actually had a
somewhat likable personality compared to 95% of the modern FF females.
The only one I can think of thats better than Tifa is Freya, but she
gets brought down by the fact that she's a giant freaking rat. Freya>>>>Every female video game character. --- "To be forgotten is worse than death"-Freya FFIX |

Man that reminds me, remember when that romero guy after getting banned
claimed to be vote stuffing in practically every close match ever, and
people believed him, even though he got caught vote stuffing in the
most amateur way possible? --- sig |

Meh, I don't like the Jill > Ocelot call. Ocelot probably has more
of a hardcore backing than Jill and Jill's main games are mostly on the
PS1 with FF7 -- while MGS1 is on the PS1, it is also on the GC and
MGS2/3 are on the PS2. We also haven't since Ocelot since MGS3:S, Solid
Snake being announced in SSBB, or the MGS4 trailers. Not that I think
even the combination of those last three will do much, but when you're
fighting for votes left over from Cloud and combined with my other
points, it helps me feel like Ocelot can pull through. I think everybody's getting hindered in the poll by Cloud though, not just Jill or Zolom. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

Ocelot is not going to benefit at all by
Snake in the SSBB trailer, nor by MGS4 hype. There hasn't even been
anything significant regarding Ocelot mentioned has there? I'm sorry,
but Ocelot's too weak to beat Jill. --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

Remember when Ocelot lost to Pac-Man? Jill's gonna win there.

Just thinking about it, I have a feeling Fenix won't stop after the
true day vote starts. He just seems like the kind of character that
will do well with the evening vote as well. TuRtLe ~~~ "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

REmake was pretty popular on the Gamecube though because it added so
much to the original. Also you have to think how many people didn't
play RE until 4 came out on the Gamecube. I mean that poured in tons of
new fans to the series. Finding a PS1 RE was near impossible but REmake
was available anywhere if you wanted to play the series from start to
finish... Granted its not earthshattering but it is something to
consider... --- Rydia: It's not yours! Edge: That's okay it would be happy to be used by us! |

If marcus wins, this'l be the first match I got perfect on (current score is 9 >_<). That's what I get for throwing my bracket together in ten minutes after it was released, and not bothering to edit it before the deadline. >_> This contest is very unpredictable this year anyways though, so I can't really say I'd be doing much better had I thought it through. --- sig |

I like how people are already calling their brackets dead. Seriously... unless you had someone who's been eliminating going to the divisional finals or something, there's plenty of hope here.
