I think two Nintendo characters, even weak ones, are guaranteed more than 20% of the vote (especially if one of their competitors is as weak as CATS). Even if Sephiroth puts up a more impressive number than Cloud, it's not like he's going to approach 70%. >_>

*prays this happens regardless*

CATS guaranteed 10-13%? I don't think so. That only happened in one on one battle (with possibly anti-vote) and I thought CATS fads have died long time ago... >_>

About the whole CATS thing, Peach doesn't need a hardcore fanbase. She and Meta Knight are already guarenteed about 20% of the vote.

that's ridiculous. if Sephiroth gets even near 60%, that leaves CATS with a measily 1-2%..

Peach isn't gettin' 20%.

Cats got 12.5~ percent in the 5-way poll after the villains contest was over.

And All Your Base won the April Fool's poll two years ago.

CATS still is almost guarenteed to draw that 12% or so.

I also don't think Link is getting 85% anymore. 80% tops if you ask me. Bidoof should at least come near 10%. the rest could probably put up some respectable but 85% just sounds too high.

look at Zolom. Cats will pull 9%, if that.

How well known is the Bidoof fad outside of GameFAQs? Is it popular enough for a new Pokemon to draw substantial votes against the LORD AND MASTER OF SFF?! IS IT, I ASK YOU.

Keno316 | Posted 9/8/2007 10:34:03 AM | message detail
Well, lets look it this way. Peach is probably a bit stronger than Jill, and look what Jill is doing here with Ocelot who's a bit better. They're struggling to get 35% of the from Cloud.

Now MetaKnight at CATS are probably better than Zolom, obviously, but I doubt they're up there with Ocelot...so a chance for CATS to actually win are good.

Zolom isn't nearly as popular an Internet meme as All Your Base, and he's up against the worst possible competition he could have possibly been paired with. CATS should do significantly better.

Toad is at a severe disadvantage in that he's sharing the poll with two stronger Nintendo characters. Peach is sharing it with a weaker one.

If Toad does well, I'd pack it up and go home. I can't imagine any reasons for him to do well. He has an infinitely stronger character from his own series ready to pwn him, and an outside Nintendo character just in case Bowser gets messy while eating Toad's lunch.

ToadYoshi | Posted 9/8/2007 10:48:11 AM | message detail
I can see Toad being like Zolom, getting a small fanbase of that loves him. I don't think Mewtwo will draw too many voes from Toad, it's bowser to worry about. And that is a significant worry, but I can see Toad preforming very well. He's kinda like Yoshi, getting a fanbase that will vote for him over anything just because he's Toad. Plus, those people are less likely to vote for Villians. Overall, I cna see Toad doing quite well here. At least, more like the 8-9% range, not the 2-3% like some people are predicting.

Bracket Score: 12 Today: Who cares what I have today, if Alucard goes to Round 4 I have it made.
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/8/2007 10:48:34 AM | message detail
If Mewtwo/Toad do alot of damage to Bowser, I'll call that as a bad sign for Peach.

And if CATS does make it to round 2.... if anything, he has a better shot at round 3.

just you watch mudkip's banner position will boost for no reason.
i mean jill doesn't exactly look the same as the banner so i bet some mysterious power stops her getting extra votes just from being in the banner.

The board is in the lie then, telling me Mudkip has no chance. But again, the safe pick there is Pit it seems.

the only thing Pit has is SSBB, and he's not even named "Kid Icarus".

or, if you're relying solely on his SSBB strength, Luigi'll surely take care of it.

Anything worth reading in the last 250 posts of the previous stats topic? Don't feel like catching up with it... I'm having a hard enough time keeping up with the stats topic while ignoring large chunks of it, and the entire rest of the board. augh actually doing stuff.

Anyway, for as much hassle as I was giving the Ocelot supporters yesterday, I really wouldn't have been surprised at all to see him win today, but to see him winning like he is now, is a nice kick in the groin. Looks like everyone's favorite Gyrating Granny will be falling off the leaderboard today. I know, hold your tears.

We are pretty much debating about Sephiroth match. CATS actually has a chance over Peach/Meta etc. And also how well Toad will do tomorrow in expense of Bowser or vice versa. Oh ya, and Jill's potential comeback... somehow...
