I don't know why anyone thought Zelda was stronger than Ganon or
that she would win this match... she was good against the female
bracket last year, but the female bracket wasn't exactly a great beacon
of strength... I'm pretty sure her outperforming Ganon on Samus by 5% might have given some of us that idea. TuRtLe ~~~ 42/52 in the contest. Next pick: Zelda > Vincent BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

five minute update for the Link match... where votes were still coming
in? That due to the proxies or something? Dunno, just totally talking

... Yuna didn't overperform on Zelda. that's due to Zelda's performance on Samus. Yuna actually got around expected. --- Today: Vincent > Zelda - Vote: Tails Tomorrow: Crono > Raiden - Vote: Crono - Points: 42/52 |

When Joanna let Yuna look like Mario, Zelda letting Yuna look like Aeris is completely acceptable. Not that Zelda's value is correct, but you can't use Zelda/Yuna as proof Zelda wasn't looking to be very high in the ranks. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board.

The point is Zelda was never as high as she appeared to be last year.
She was clearly overrated, just like Tifa (just that unlike Tifa, no
one ever bothered to make adjustments). --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

I never said that. I said Sora is a notch under Auron, and that he overperformed due to his 1-seed. TuRtLe ~~~ 42/52 in the contest. Next pick: Zelda > Vincent BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

When Joanna let Yuna look like Mario, Zelda letting Yuna look like Aeris is completely acceptable. But it still tells me Zelda ain't stronger than Sonic, Crono, and Mega Man. Well, unless you think Yuna beats Luigi, Bowser, or Ryu. --- "I'm no hero...Never was. I'm just an old killer...hired to do some wet work." |

If Tails can keep The Boss stalled, I think he can take the day vote. But I'm hoping he takes the lead for good before then... --- Rangers 0 0 0 5 0 9 0 10 6 . 30 29 1 Orioles... 1 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 . 0 . 3 .. 9 ..1 |

The Boss is probably gonna build up a good lead with the night vote, so
I doubt if Tails can bite back (sure Sonic characters have wicked day
votes, but by that same extension they have AWFUL night periods). ...not that it matters, though the discussion centered on it seems to indicate Zelda's chances have been eradicated. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

It'd be interesting only if you want to ponder how badly Auron SFFs Sora. --- "I'm no hero...Never was. I'm just an old killer...hired to do some wet work." |

Auron would kill Sora. His badassed attitude would secure him the good side of the SFF there, and Sora would get his socks rocked. TuRtLe ~~~ 42/52 in the contest. Next pick: Zelda > Vincent BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

With Mario-like numbers and gettin' beat 57-43, Zelda can't compete with Crono?!?

But the inverse holds true for MGS characters! True, but that means that The Boss may just lay such a hard smackdown that it just may not be feasible for Tails to recover (I don't consider what we're seeing now the "true" night vote, otherwise I'd still be feeling alright about Zelda's chances). --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Am I the only one that thinks Luigi vastly overperformed in his first 2 matches last year? the thing is.. I wouldn't take Yuna over Kirby.

Isn't the day vote a lot bigger than the night vote, though? (Considering Marcus > Kefka, anyway.) If that's the case Tails still has a pretty good shot... |
