Pikachu to Barney? Is BT at it again?

My guess is no, since he was calling Zelda fans pre-pubescent and then going on to talk about how awesome Pikachu was.

I could see that, I suppose. If I understand the concept correctly, SFF (or rSFF) isn't supposed to happen as much if the characters are roughly equal to begin with (Cloud/Sephiroth '03, for example). I had a hard time believing Tidus and Vivi were near-equals after round 1, but with Pikachu getting a decisive win over both of them it would actually seem pretty likely.

Yeah, I really think they are nearly equal now. Vivi > Tidus, but not by nearly as much as people were thinking.

I don't think Vivi is SFFable. Vivi would certainly hold up better on Squall than Tidus but in true power they seem near equals going off this.

If Ada had advanced last round, we would definitely have seen Pikachu advancing all the way to round four. She only would have had to sap 20% of Leon's votes, which would be likely, to make him on par with Pikachu, and then Dante would sap just enough more from the Capcom overlap to hurl Pikachu into an easy victory.

Darn you Ammy!!

He doesn't seem any more arrogant than the average stats topic poster. Anyway, he's earned his gloating today.

Hmmmmm.... how strong would Jigglypuff be, x-stats-wise (it's a shame Bidoof and Mudkip made it instead)? I'd be interested in your opinions on this matter now.

Lieutenant Kettch | Posted 10/15/2007 9:48:29 PM | message detail
I don't think most of us hate pokemon. I just had no idea Pikachu had actual fans.

I suppose I should've given Pikachu more thought after boosting Master Chief so much in this format due to the lack of anti-votes. Pikachu obviously receives far more, I just didn't think he had a solid enough following to capitalize on it.
KleenexTissue50 | Posted 10/15/2007 9:48:57 PM | message detail
Jiggly does pretty poorly, I think.

Doesn't have the fad power of Bidoof or Mudkip, doesn't have the popularity of Pikachu or Mewtwo.

I don't think Vivi is SFFable. Vivi would certainly hold up better on Squall than Tidus but in true power they seem near equals going off this.

Vivi is just as SFFable as any other fan favorite FF character, e.g. Auron. He'd probably do better against Squall than Tidus did, but not by as much as his match with Sephiroth indicates. Sephiroth's just...weird.

Black Turtle wants to be hochiminh when he grows up.


First, my account is much older than hochi (unless hochi is some really old poster using a hilarious alt gimmick to brighten our hearts).

Secondly, I wouldn't be acting like an ass right now if not for all the flak I got for this pick. Seems as though you guys can dish it out, but you can't take it at all.

Uhhh my first interaction with BT involved him losing his sig to me over Celes/Boss, and I didn't bring the dang thing up once.

I also remember someone stalking me from another board on that match and telling me I was a loser and waste of space for having The Boss > Celes... good times.

...

oh screw it I CALLED THE BOSS > CELES SUCK IT ALL OF YOU

I never thought he was that bad, but I finally saw the light.

There was this real sorry discussion where he was trying endlessly to convince people that Starcraft's 800 cheat votes that were removed were, in fact, legit :)

I dunno, I personally try to refrain from that. Of course, nobody has had to worry about a good pick coming from this direction since 2005!

What?

And I bet my sig and lost it. I admitted I was wrong and never attacked you for taking Boss over Celes, because that was a debateable fodder match that could have went either way.

Vivi stayed pretty much unchanged from this point in his last match. His day vote competition is slightly stronger this time around so he'll probably drop slightly by the end.
