That was Marcus dropping and Kefka remaining consistant. --- "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* |

Kefka didn't do anything that time. He only increased 7 votes from the previous update. Marcus, on the other hand, dropped 44 votes. --- "I'm no hero...Never was. I'm just an old killer...hired to do some wet work." |

I saw more than a couple of people in the last topic calling Fenix the
favorite for next round (and for once BT, I'm not talking about you). As for Fenix, he's always got the "advantage" of having a more separate fanbase than anyone else in the poll (he's still managing to currently lose to Kefka here). As for Jill, I'm not buying her being significantly more affected by Cloud these days. I was calling for FF/RE SFF *hard* in the Series Contest, and it just didn't happen. Sure you can say RE4, but it wouldn't get 50% percent on all the other games, and it was on PS2 as well - sold better, too. Nothing's impossible, but I'd count on Jill outperforming Fenix with ease before I saw him giving her a match. Of course she could drop the ball next round to change my views a bit... --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Ocelot will get more SFF than Jill from Cloud. It's not just console -
MGS and FF7 are both very storyline heavy, while RE4...isn't. That
could be a non-factor but it's something to think about when
considering similar fanbases. Plus, Boss/Tifa proves that the FF/MGS
SFF stretches across the generation gap. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

Hey, I'll be voting for Ocelot. He's got a chance... much like Marcus has a chance. I'm gonna stop bothering with mincing words and just assume Jill moves on. >> --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Eh, I think Boss looks okay in the stats... until you realize she's
"overrated" through Samus/Tifa. Adjusting her down makes her lose to a
lot of people that likely wouldn't have a chance against her... I think
it's safe to say Tifa overperformed some on The Boss, though it's impossible to know without seeing her again. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

I think Voyevoda's ranking is fair. Any Tifa overperformance on Samus
is compensated for by Tifa's overperformance on Boss, so the overration
and underration balances out nicely. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

Honestly, with the large amount of percentage that Cloud is going to
pull in, it's not going to matter too much. Plus, if we want to talk
about potential "SFF," look at MGS/RE in the Games Contest. And then there's Ocelot/Nemesis, but we've never seen FFVII vs. RE. We've only seen RE face FF at all twice outside of the Series Contest: Tidus/Claire and Squall/Jill. Regardless, I'm not taking "SFF" for granted because it's just not a certainty. I'm not taking ANYTHING for granted right now. Zolom still has a chance for second place! --- "I'm no hero...Never was. I'm just an old killer...hired to do some wet work." |

Sephiroth VS Liquid Snake is a better example to say that FFVII/MGS
might share some fanbase. The Boss on the other hand, could be just as
weak as that match says since we have no other poll that says anything
else. But none of this matter since Jill is a lock to beat Ocelot. I'm more worried about Marcus Fenix taking the second spot away from Jill in round 2. I thought/hoped that Marcus would be weak as hell >_< --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. Proud supporter of Knuckles and Magus in Character Battle VI |

Except that you have no idea where she should be, and I'm willing to
bet my left nutsack and a half that Ocelot would beat her pretty easily
without SFF. She probably is disgustingly weak, but we really have no
idea how weak, so there's absolutely no point in bringing up Tifa/Boss
SFF. --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

There's no way Tifa gets 45% on Samus legitimately. Solid Snake couldn't even manage 47% on her. --- "I'm no hero...Never was. I'm just an old killer...hired to do some wet work." |
