Just got home, looks like the apostrophes in Tails' name caused the update script to fail. Just fixed it. Anyone have the missing updates? --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

This has to be the weirdest X-stat machine result I have seen. Saw this while discussing Kirby with HM: Kirby (2006c) VS Tidus (2005c) Kirby has a strength of 29.39. Tidus has a strength of 29.63. Tidus wins with 50.40% of the vote! A win of 845 with 104,355 total votes cast. --- Currently Playing: Persona 3 |

LOL X-Stats Comparing X-Stats from different years probably isn't particularly accurate. --- 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 |

Also, Kirby/Luigi had the lowest vote totals in all of the male side of
the last contest (only 6 matches on the female side got lower overall).
Doesn't that strike anyone as weird, especially with two high profile
characters in the poll? Same thing happened with Bowser/Kirby in 2005. --- Currently Playing: Persona 3 |

Both were Nintendo/Nintendo matches, involving the Mario and Kirby
series (and Kirby's just a hop, skip, and a jump away from being one
himself with his cutesyness). Limit the voterbase to just one company
and the votals diminish accordingly. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Poor Zelda. Everyone hates her cause she can't beat Vincent, and she won't even get like 5% in round 2. >_> --- caps |

Doesn't that just increase the possibility for SFF? Kirby could be much stronger/much weaker than the results say... --- Currently Playing: Persona 3 |

Inserted updates, thanks to RockMFR 5, RPGuy and TRE. As for KOS-MOS vs. Diablo, I don't see how anyone could take KOS-MOS there. Arthas really killed him, and KOS-MOS wasn't that far ahead as is. I saw some discussion about my man Red XIII earlier! I think Red XIII would do excellent. 25% on Link minimum, excellent shot at 30+%. Some people seem to doubt him just because he hasn't made it yet, but that's silly. This is Final Fantasy VII, which has 2 of the 3 strongest characters of all. His nomination competition is beyond ridiculous. In the actual contest, I have very little doubt he'd kick ass. He's the exact type of badass that is strong here. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

Something about Vincent makes me feel like he is less prone to SFF than
other FF characters. I'm curious to see how he'll hold up against
Sephiroth, once he beats Crono in round 3 =). --- SC2k6: 33 points || Magus > Bomberman , Link > Bidoof Upcoming Votes: Bomberman, Link, Zelda, Crono |

So how likely is Tails coming back to take 3rd place? --- Oracle Challenge - Today's prediction:~ Vincent 32.80% - Zelda 29.87% - Tails 19.25% - Teh Boss 18.08% ~ Status: OK |

Tails is already taking some votes off The Boss now. I can see The Boss losing the leads once the day vote comes. BTW, The Boss really impresses here. Tails was a solid mid-carder back in the 2004, 43% on Dante was actually quite good. Now The Boss is almost tied with Tails and this is a good evidence that MGS characters does do well in this kind of format. 3 MGS characters did well, 3 more remaining member to go. --- Proud Supporter of Solid Snake, Dante and Ryu.

The more I see these Metal Gear characters doing well, the better I
feel about Liquid placing in is fourpack. (Got Liquid > Alucard)
Though Tails will likely grab the lead from her, The Boss shouldn't be
completely hammered here. I'm telling you guys. The voters are reacting against last year's female bracket! OMG, Squall > Akuma CONFIRMED! >.> --- Current Points: 42 Maximum Possible Points: 758/768 |

Looks like The Boss wasn't able to build up enough of a lead overnight.
She can thank Vincent for that. Now the Sonic voters are waking up and
pushing their little sidekick to 3rd! Zelda also seems to be waking up, but she's a lost cause. --- Moltar Status: The Analysis Crew...believe Tails/The Boss/Vincent/Zelda - Bracket: Vincent > Zelda - Vote: The Boss (44/52) |
