Link is in DEEP TROUBLE here. This is BAD for Link. In fact, Link might even be the weakest of Clinkeroth if this keeps up. I personally did not foresee this. I had no idea Twilgiht Princess would cause Link to lose so much power

When I refresh the homepage I'm getting the Samus/Cloud poll about half the time for some reason...

Yeah, what's up with that?

Yeah, lol Vincent. I take back everything I said about him holding up better than Mario here.

This probably has something to do with the WESKERVERSE.

It's weird that Cloud and Sephiroth, who haven't really starred in any new game(I don't know if Advent Children counts) could keep their power, or even get much much stronger, while Link, who appears in a new game every year, it seems, would get weaker.

Do you realize that Mario holding up so well means he's holding Link back? If he still beats Sephiroth despite that, he's going to clean up when Cloud comes along.

A restart would move Pikachu's match to my birthday, and thus ensure a Pikachu > Luigi victory... somehow.

Hey, if Pikachu can beat Dante, he can beat Master Chief and Luigi.

Points doubled again and missing hurts twice as much. 6 people fell off the Top 50 today. BlAcK_TuRtLe, expaniol, Crono801, Seijun, Leonhart44 and trannyscience did not have Cloud > Samus as yesterday's winners.

1 person managed to stay on the Top 50 after socring half points. X_and_Zero also did not have Cloud > Samus as yesterday's winners.

This is pretty far behind in votals thanks to the poll nonsense, though I think it's fixed now. Yesterday's match was probably around 3500 where this one is at 2000.

if I knew Mario was going to get 25%, I would have taken Sephiroth to win. I already said before that if Zero ended up here instead of Vincent, I would have taken him in the AC. I.. don't think we can draw anything about Link or Sephiroth from this poll, because we just don't know.

I know you Cloud boys want to call for the demise of Link (so do I).. but let's hold off on that.

And Link+Mario under 62% with the board vote??

Obviously this is because Cloud is way stronger than Link and a much better vote draw!

hochiminh155 | Posted 10/29/2007 9:19:12 PM | message detail
Link is facing Sephiroth (Who is getting leeched by Vincent but the overall strength is the same) and Mario, who shares Link's fanbase heavily. Not as impressive as three independent fanbases IMHO.

It's really a shame that Samus is the fourth character in the Clinkeroth semis, as it would've been fun just to see Sonic or even Mega Man pull a Snake and steal third from Sephiroth.

Of course, just switching Mario and Samus would've been even more awesome, as we'd have Clinkeroth + Mario in an epic four-way match instead of having Vincent get beat up and sent home crying.

Um, Link doesn't even have 35% against a weaker four-pack than Cloud.

1) Mario > Samus
2) Sephiroth > Mega Man
3) Vincent > Ryu
4) Sephiroth would beat any of Cloud's opponents yesterday.
5) Mario could beat any of Cloud's opponents yesterday.
6) Vincent would have a solid chance against Mega Man.
7) This is the first fifteen minutes or so in a glitchy poll.

Seven reasons in about a minute why your pro-Cloud talk is wrong.

Seginustemple | Posted 10/29/2007 9:20:06 PM | message detail
I'm pretty sure it's been shown that most of Mario's votes (like 80% or so) go straight into Link, isn't that what happened in the Battle Royale last year? If that holds, Link is going to dominate Cloud...

Well, this is actually how I would have expected the match to go without seeing the BR last year. I guess the Twilight Princess hype just gave Link some incredible SFFing power or something...
Shaggy_Heru | Posted 10/29/2007 9:21:18 PM | message detail
Why does everyone think Link is doing so terribly? The only thing I am worried about is Mario possibly catching Sephy with Vincent in there.

Maybe thats just dumb for some reason I don't know, but thats the only thing I have been worried about for this match.
