I feel extremely confident in Nightmare here. I won't say it's a lock
because I'm not an arrogant tool, but if Vyse is ahead when I get home
in a few hours, I'll be surprised. --- | |_ . . ___| |

Round 1- Division 6 Group C Characters Involved: Nightmare Nomination rally winner, Nightmare looks primed to move to the next round. He would have to really suck in order to not advance, but given Ivy's performance last year, he should be safe.

He is also pretty much guarenteed to be in the final match this year, since he and Sonic are the only Noble Niners in the bottom half of the bracket, and the only other possible threat is Ganondorf. TuRtLe ~~~ 75/100 in the contest. Next pick: Kratos > DK BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

Vyse Summer 2003 Contest West Division - 11 Seed Western Round 1 --- Lost to (6) Donkey Kong, 36743 [37.58%] - 61027 [62.42%] Extrapolated Strength --- 43rd Place [18.43%] Summer 2004 Contest Midgar Division - 8 Seed Midgar Round 1 --- Defeated (9) Laharl, 41440 [60.23%] - 27368 [39.77%] Midgar Quarterfinal --- Lost to (1) Cloud, 16947 [18.59%] - 74199 [81.41%] Extrapolated Strength --- 45th Place [17.92%] Summer 2005 Contest Chaos Division - 6 Seed Chaos Round 1 --- Lost to (3) Tifa, 21114 [21.93%] - 75159 [78.07%] Extrapolated Strength --- 65th Place [13.50%] Once the character used to seperate fodder from midcarders, Vyse really took a stumble in 2005. Why? Noone really knows. Some say that RPG SFF is the cause, others say it was Vyse dropping off due to higher votals. I personally don't buy the RPG SFF theory because he did fine against Cloud in 2k4. Predictions: Solid Snake is guarenteed to dominate, and Rayman is guarenteed to sucks. That leaves Vyse and Nightmare to battle for second place. Personally, I think that Vyse is nowhere near his 2k3/2k4 levels, and given Ivy's performance last year, I'd say Nightmare should have this one in the bag. TuRtLe's Prediction: Snake: 55%, Nightmare 20%, Vyse 15%, Rayman 10% TuRtLe's Bracket: Snake > Nightmare TuRtLe's Vote: Snake TuRtLe ~~~ 75/100 in the contest. Next pick: Kratos > DK BlAcK TuRtLe.

The fact that people would bracket vote anyone
over Solid Snake makes me pretty damn sick. Nightmare can prove me
wrong by staying in the mid-20's, but I doubt that'll happen. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

But holy crap Snake. He's got nowhere to go but up from here. There's no reason to expect Snake to do much better than this, IMO.

better than Snake is doing now, and his competition isn't any worse
