You need OpenOffice spreadsheet or some plug-in for Excel...

Either way, I kind of enjoy doing it by hand.

1:00 | 22.75% | 8.48% | 57.26% | 11.54%
2:00 | 21.36% | 8.05% | 58.70% | 11.89%
3:00 | 21.70% | 7.35% | 59.34% | 11.61%

Vyse and Nightmare are fairly constant, Rayman is horrible, and Snake is totally hitting 60% before the say is over.

Urgh. I can't believe I picked Vyse over Nightmare here. I mean Tifa-Vyse and Tifa-Ivy made this pretty obvious.

On the bright side, Snake's doing awesome.

Here are my list of characters I don't want to see again in the future contests:
- Any JRPG-only characters that are not from FF IV-X and CT (Note: KH is not JRPG)
- Any platformer characters from Playstation era (except probably Crash Bandicoot unless Crash of the Titans bomb hard)

This is the characters I want to see more in the future contests:
- More Tetris block!
- More MGS characters, such as Otacon, Psycho Mantis, etc
- More Pokemon
- More FF VII characters, like Red XIII, Barret, etc
- All SSBB characters.
- Chocobo

Xcarvengerx | Posted 9/29/2007 3:10:02 AM | message detail
uh, I just want to know how they stack up in these contests... (hopefully they don't get stuck in an SFF match like Zolom). I want to suggest to replace the more popular characters in the same series/game with the others that haven't made it yet, but I don't think many people would agree with that...

Nightmare kind of losing steam here...

So... if Nightmare performs "as expected" and yet it turns out his competition was Rayman and someone who got beat by Rayman, is that still performing as expected? >_> <_<

- More Tetris block!
- More MGS characters, such as Otacon, Psycho Mantis, etc
- More Pokemon
- More FF VII characters, like Red XIII, Barret, etc
- All SSBB characters.
- Chocobo



More Tetris blocks are just worthless. They're worthless characters. I love L-block and am happy to see him performing so well, but they're all the same. 1 is enough.

I also question the need for more MGS characters, more pokemon and more FFVII characters. The deeper you spit for MGS characters, the weaker they'll get. MGS4 may change this, but until then, I'd stay out of it. Except Gray Fox maybe, he'd have awesome pics (a lot of MGS characters aren't very picturesque).

Pokemon I definitely think we've seen enough. I could hop on board for Charizard or something, but outside of that, no. Same for FFVII characters, though here there is a bit more room for some original and interesting characters, IMO. I'd love to see Red XIII, for example. Zack may be fun as well.

All SSBB characters was probably put somewhat jokingly, and I have to say I couldn't disagree more. They probably will all have some strength, but where is the soul in seeing how Marth and Roy perform? I realise they are SSBM characters, but you get the point.

Lastly, the chocobo. Yes, that would be awesome. I'd love Mog as well. It's weird how the board got so many worthless FFVI characters in and then not Mog? He could perform Vivi-esque.

Wow how the heck did I make the leaderboard? I thought my bracket was horrendous..
Xcarvengerx | Posted 9/29/2007 3:56:09 AM | message detail
For Tetris block, maybe one or two blocks per contest or something like that...
Psycho Mantis has a cult following, so he should be interesting. And maybe Gray Fox. Also by the next contest, MGS4 should be released already (if it is not delayed).
For Pokemon and FF VII, yeah I guess a couple more should be good enough.
Almost all confirmed characters for SSBB at the nomination time are in this contest (I think Diddy Kong is the only one being snubbed), so unless they started adding obscure unlockables to the game, this is not too far-fetch and most of these characters also have their own game anyway.

And Kweh Kupo should be iiiinnnnnnnnnnnnn next time !!

So I wake up to see Rayman cutting into to Vyse, but sadly with such low percents I don't think Rayman will have enough strength.

Still, GO RAYMAN!
