"So... Our match is tomorrow, huh?" Tidus sniffed as he walked towards Leon's big, red arm chair in front of the fire. He didn't sit next to him, he was much too anxious to relax in any way. Leon, on the other hand, was resting his head on his arm with his feet up.

"Yeah..." he responded. As relaxed as he seemed, his thoughts were racing. He knew he'd have to fight Tidus eventually, but he never really wanted to face that fact. His hand slid off of his cheek as Tidus planted a kiss on his other.

"Don't hold back," Tidus smiled as he turned Leon's head so that their lips were mere inches apart, "Promise?"

"You bet, kid," Leon smiled back as he gave Tidus the deepest, most meaningful kiss of both of their lives.

"That's kinda creepy..." said Vivi.

"Pika-pi" said the yellow mouse.

"Wait...if I lose, it's going to be because of THAT?" exclaimed Vivi once more. A simple nod from Pikachu answered all questions, and the two leaned in for the most meaningful kiss of their lives.

I come back after 1 hour and a half to see that Vivi is still somewhat in this match. Also, how the hell is Tidus so close!?!? He's destroying Vivi's votes.

Vivi will probably get damn close to a tie with the dead hours... but augh the morning, I'm dreading that. But then Vivi has the during school vote which I'd expect him to take. Eh. Not feeling good but I haven't given up hope yet.

Was just thinking that, yeah...Pika will extend the lead. Vivi will have to build something solid with the school vote and just do his best to stall with the ASV.

Highly unlikely that he wins, to be honest, but I wouldn't mind a couple of lead changes.

Speaking of which, how many lead changes were there yesterday? What's the record for most lead changes in a match, LttP/CT? But wasn't that instant updates?

hrm... Tidus is the winner of this poll as far as I'm concerned. he's the reason Vivi isn't winning -- if he gets into the 15% range (which seemed likely), Vivi takes this. he just ended up being too strong..? weird.

Wow, go Tidus. Pika's not looking as good as he did last night, but he'll probably rise slightly. Not enough to hit 25%, though. Tidus should end up at nearly 21% - it's looking like he was LFFed pretty badly in his round 1 match if he can do this well against Vivi and Pikachu now. Vivi will be lucky to finish 1% ahead of Tidus. Leon's performance is pretty much as expected; he might make it to 33%.

Seeing these results and knowing that Tidus didn't even have to bomb to give Vivi the victory... just do a little worse than he is now, is awful.

Cavalier Lowen | Posted 10/16/2007 7:34:48 AM | message detail
Well I don't feel nearly as dumb for having Tidus advance out of this four-pack...knew Vivi wouldn't have a SFF advantage over an actual main. Too bad Tidus was just too damn weak to do anything about it....think this proves that he was held back a bit by Serge/Isaac.

Actually, other than in obvious cross-genre cases like any type of Nintendo character SFFing another, I'd generally look for genre LFF/SFF than company SFF(Pokemon is a totally different RPG than FFX, Golden Sun, and Crono Cross).
Mac Arrowny | Posted 10/16/2007 7:40:12 AM | message detail
Yeah. This match defnitely makes me feel better about having Leon > Tidus.

Pikachu winning is probably better for my bracket than Vivi winning anyway.

Looking at last round Tidus is still getting what he would on Pikachu yet Vivi is only doing slightly worse than expected and being a RE character Leon will probably drop during the ASV.

I don't even get what BT is doing wrong. He made a good pick and rubs it in people's faces? Everyone in this topic is guilty of that offense thousands of times over.

I'm with Yo when he said he tries to refrain from rubbing matches in other people's faces...the few times I do is because of an awesome upset for me character-wise (Knuckles > Magus!) instead of an awesome upset for me bracket-wise (Master Hand > Kuja). Let BT brag...but the more he's allowed to toot his own horn when he's right, the more he's allowed to take **** when he's wrong. It's give and take.

Ugh, don't remind me about DK. Where the hell does he stand, anyway? It's impossible to figure out just how much Kratos has been bumped by GoW 2 when his measuring stick is the most mind-bogglingly inconsistent character in these contests.

Kratos is a legitimate threat to Kirby in a 1v1 match, even if DK hurts Kirby minimally, Kratos is a damn near lock.

From PortugalTheMann
Kratos is a legitimate threat to Kirby in a 1v1 match, even if DK hurts Kirby minimally, Kratos is a damn near lock.

But where do you get that from? Kirby did okay in his match, assuming Laharl hasn't dropped like a stone (and given the performance of other "joke" characters, I'm willing to bet that L-block's strength is really formidable). Kratos could possibly take Kirby on in a 1vs1 match, but that would by on the high end of any strength estimate I'd give him.

Given that, DK and Kirby will LFF each other enough for Kratos to win regardless, but the degree of his victory could vary quite a lot depending on where the hell DK stands. DK doesn't strike me as the kind of character who would do well in these contests, but on the other hand, when has DK ever performed as expected?
