Holy hell. So much for the bleeding. And you cannot someone for overreacting to that cut. I can't remember the last time I've seen a cut like that in a close match, at least in the early going. |

| Just look at last round's match. Mega Man is down 5%, Yoshi is down 11%. Seems pretty clear where the overlap is here to me. I can understand the Samus picture hurting her, I don't see how it hurts Yoshi. |

| I'm pretty sure Samus is cheating. Even I, a big
Samus Aran supporter and fan, can see this. Either Bacon will remove
the votes, or Mega Man will simply muster up enough additional strength
to render them irrelevant. Either way, this one is over for Samus Aran.

ROUND 2 WINNERS AND LOSERS Winners STAR OF THE ROUND: L-Block - You showed us some strength by convincingly smacking Laharl around. But in this round, you revealed your independent fanbase and crushed the puffball that once vanquished you. You also messed up more brackets than anyone so far. For that, you are the star! Yoshi - SFF? I don’t believe in SFF! Yoshi smashed all murmurs of Mega/Yoshi SFF by putting up a solid 2nd place against the blue bomber and kicking Knuckles to the curb. Marcus Fenix - So much for winner of Jill/Ocelot guaranteed two rounds. Fenix rides into the next round by gunning down the clown and ocelot and taking the seat on Cloud’s coattails. Ryu - Ryu was greatly disturbed by all the Bowser support, and proceeded to Hadoken him right in the kisser to move onto another round, where possible Cloud/Auron SFF could get him into Round 4. Big Boss - That was a great performance Mr. Solid Snake. Uh I mean, Big Snake, uh…Naked Boss? Well whoever you are, you sure caused a stir in the match pic, and you have slayed Magus with your awesome looks! Bidoof - Against all odds, you still perform mightily, o great Bidoof. 13% is a good showing against the likes of Link and Vincent. Zero - You came pretty close to making Crono sweat! Are you going to prove BT right? Are you truly moving to another round? Or was it just robot SFF? Mudkip - You lead this match for a while and stayed competitive? What the heck is going on here? A joke character has strength! Master Chief - You are kicking ass so much that these wide margins are becoming mundane! In fact, if you don’t win your next match, you will likely be labeled a disappointment! Amaterasu - If only L-Block hadn’t advanced, you would have been the biggest bracket buster of the contest! Capcom was so impressed, they announced a port of your game to the Wii! Good times all around! Tidus - You rebounded from a pathetic showing to look somewhat decent, and you even kept Vivi from advancing! All in a day’s work for a Blitzball champion! Riku - That bastard Roxas kept you back, but this time around, you unleashed the DARKNESS upon that unsuspecting ninja. He never saw it coming. Sora - He has finally eliminated the ghosts of 2003 past by crushing Aeris just as convincingly as he was beaten by the flower girl in the past. He still let Squall win though Sonic the Hedgehog - The power of Brawl has allowed you to destroy Sub-Zero this time around, after being a big loser last time. Now he enters the arena of the “S”, where Squall and Sora join the party. Master Moltar - Flat out domination. If you lose the contest, you’ll be right in the DK Tier of choking. |

Losers TURD OF THE ROUND: Aeris Gainsborough - Good job Aeris, you’ve gone from whipping Sora with a pole to being Sora’s *****. You weren’t even competitive in that blasphemous performance! Gah! It makes me want to stab something! Bowser - Surely you would never lose to Bowser if you were the only Nintendo character in the match. Oh wait, you managed to lose to Ryu again and get kicked out of the contest? For shame Bowser, from 59-41 to this. Wario - How could you score under 10% with your nuclear flatulence? Magus - Sure, a Solid Snake-esque pic is hard to combat, but Magus couldn’t even make a match of this. He might not have even beat old man Big Boss! Somewhere out there, Ganondorf is laughing. Zelda - Yeah, I realize she finished last due to Link SFF, but there’s still something wrong with going from 45% on Samus to losing to Bidoof. Raiden - I’m sorry, but I’m still looking at the match pic for your match, are you even in it, or did they just clone HK-47 and stick him in your place? You performed about as well as HK anyway. Liquid Snake - One round, you’re 3 votes Alucard’s superior. The next, you’re being beaten into the ground by Alucard en route to a last place finish. Living on through this arm has lost its power! Ada Wong - Common belief was that having defeated Balthier, you would now easily take 2nd place to Dante. That was the plan anyway, but you got mauled by a wolf, and your arms and legs have been torn off. Not a good show. Balthier - *slow clap* Vivi - And the guru favorite for 2nd falls, as the black mage could not cast the votes that make the Pikas fall down. Kirby - Round 4? More like groped by a giant simian and held hostage, while a geometric block took his place into the next round. I’m guessing L-Block’s power was ineffective. Ryu Hayabusa - You beat Riku and Roxas combined, but that apparently wasn’t enough to secure victory. Burdened with the cries of “Hey, you’re that ninja” and the KH vote, you were removed from the contest nonchalantly. Bracketmakers - To cap off the terrible scores, only about 6% of brackets took L, and only 8% taking Amaterasu. It truly is a train wreck. LFF - I hate you for killing off Kirby and Vivi, and I’m sure others hate LFF for other deaths. |
