Well, it is up against the two contest forces that can make it
happen. Honestly, what were you people expecting after yesterday? Of
course L-Block is going to be even stronger at the start. Look at the
votals, for Pete's sake. actually, this is the problem. Link is not going against the L-Block. he's going against the L-Block and Cloud. Cloud is killing him. --- xyzzy "And Snake has scaled the mountain. He is within 10% of a Tetris block." -yoblazer33 |

one I don't really like, than a Tetris block. But the stats topic is
not the place for me to whine about that. Oh there's no question, Link or Cloud winning this would be a TON more fun for me. As I said in another topic, well over 50% of GameFAQs would have more fun if someone other than the block won this match. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
