Look at what Riku did to Yoshi. Never underestimate the power of the KH day vote. --- Currently Playing: Wild Arms 3, Persona 3 |

Riku is trying so hard to lose an update to Roxas. --- Kleenex - Now with an invigorating blast of citrus cherry flavor. CB6 - 79/108; Oracle - 29th |

Riku went up 2% against Yoshi from this point to the end of the match.
That's impressive, but I doubt he does much more than that here - Ryu H
swung about as much as Yoshi did against Danta - and I somehow doubt
Roxas swings enough to push Ryu under 42%. Especially since I doubt
Haseo has a decent day vote. --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." - Joseph Stalin |

L-Block dropped about 4.5% from 3:00 AM until the end of the match, and
not only was L-Blocked very front-loaded but Tetris's day-vote
suuuucked in the Game Contest...not to mention that Kirby's no day-vote
slouch, himself. At 3:00 AM, Hayabusa currently has 45.87%. Hayabusa
has shown to have a decent day-vote before by overcoming Jill (twice)
with the ASV, plus he rose about .5%/.8% against Dante/Zero from 3:00
AM until the end of the match...he's not bad with it. It's not doubted
that Riku and Roxas will rise a LOT tomorrow, but Hayabusa has a
fighting chance of staying above 42% if he's at 45.87% right now,
especially with the 360's added presence here this year. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

I look at it more like the Riku/Roxas combo will best represent the
KH-vote rather than giving both Riku and Roxas the KH-vote. I don't see
a change THAT big coming...that'd be ****ing creepy contest-wise. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

Oh, plus -- as mentioned -- Riku dropped Yoshi 2% from 3:00 AM to the end of the match. Hell, Riku dropped Frog 5.5%. Do you want to say Hayabusa's day-vote is more comparable to Yoshi's or Frog's? --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board.

Wait...2k5 polls started at 3:00 AM, right? Make the Zero/Hayabusa and
Frog/Riku examples from 6:00 AM to the end of the match then if that's
what it is. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

The results look like they will hold. The only major change will be
Haseo looking horribly in comparison after Riku and Roxas benefit from
the KH day-vote. --- Eff Dee |

I would be damn surprised if Yuffie was stronger than Red XIII. I
doubt KHF does diddly for her. Does she ever join your party? Anyway,
she doesn't seem like the type to have real strength. She does join your party, and she's one of the better fighters. Definitely better than Tifa, Vincent, Cait Sith, and Barret from what I remember. Anyway, I'd expect her to be stronger than Barret. But if she couldn't make the female bracket last year, I doubt we'll ever see her, so it's kind of irrelevant. well, there's two, no, three.. no, four ways to look at it: Personally I'm thinking Riku was overrated. He was darn close to Sora in the stats... remember when we thought Magus was close to Crono? We thought Zero was pretty close to Mega Man too, then they went and lost to Knuckles and Luigi. Ryu Hayabusa is Riku's Knuckles. Anyway, last year Riku lost to Yoshi, who performed suspiciously close to Sonic and Mega Man against Snake. The year before that, Riku was close to Sora, but Sora got pic factor'd/sff'd by Snake. So I think there's plenty of reason to believe he was never as close to Sora as he looked. --- R.I.P.

Yuffie doesn't join your party in KH, the only FF character that does is Auron. |
YoAriel33 | Posted 9/30/2007 1:46:07 AM | message detail |
Auron and Riku are the only non-Disney characters to join your party. Also, FYI: Ariel was the best world-specific party member in either game. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Heh. I wished Atlantica was actually something in KHII. Ariel and Beast were my favourite party members in KH1. --- Who the hell do you think you are getting off being so egotistical like that? - hochiminh155 to Takfloyd_mkII__ |
YoAriel33 | Posted 9/30/2007 1:50:33 AM | message detail |
Frailiel maybe? Of course she totally wasn't because IIRC her defense
stat was impressive. Seriously, she was the most useful world-specific
character. She had pretty much all of Donald's magic with superior
attack and defense. Made the damn octopus duck completely useless. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Personally I'm thinking Riku was overrated. He was darn close to
Sora in the stats... remember when we thought Magus was close to Crono?
We thought Zero was pretty close to Mega Man too, then they went and
lost to Knuckles and Luigi. Ryu Hayabusa is Riku's Knuckles. speaking purely from an x-stat perspective, 45% on Yoshi is no joke. how low do you want to bring Yoshi down? I mean, he *did* beat Dante. if Riku's overrated by *that* much, you'd expect Yoshi and Dante to be, too. I agree that Yoshi is overrated, but not by a ton. just a couple of points. Riku was still clearly above any Hayabusa we'd seen. --- ZFStix: nin nin nin ima ninja!!! nin nin nin XD ZFStix: kill it |

Well, I'd tossed the idea of Dante/Hayabusa SFF around as well. It's
possible that Ryu Hayabusa has been constantly on the rise and was
stronger than he looked last year. Also possible that Dante getting pics from a game that doesn't exist weakens him. Yeah, you heard me. Maybe Dante should've beaten Yoshi last year! --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

I'm thinking that Ryu is overperforming cause the line up is just so
damn boring. Three "kiddie RPG" characters and one identity free ninja.
I even voted Haseo, not because I like him cause I've never seen him
before, but because he was in last place (poor guy). I'm suspecting I'm
not the only one that doesn't care, however most of the time in those
situations the ninja will get the vote cause... Well... After all, he's
a ninja and popular opinion is that ninjas kick ass... --- The apples were too strong for him. |
