any new character that isn't from Nintendo?

Gray Fox, Seifer, Laguna? I can't think of that many. Maybe Neku from The World Ends With You?

Might go with Gray Fox. Either him or Big Boss.

Where there are cardboard boxes, there will always be Solid Snake.

Travis Touchdown, unless being a Wii exclusive is still too Nintendo for you.

Wow. Front Page already.

Oh, nominate Brock people!

Nominate Brock from the Pokemon Series for Character Battle VII, or Onix will use Bind on you forever.
M_e_g_a_6_4 | Posted 8/8/2008 2:59:04 PM | message detail
Revived my Balance Board rally, though I feel it won't be that successful.

Nominated Pikachu and Charizard as well so far. SBAllen really did a nice job with the nominations, though. Spellcheck and deletions? I love where things are going.

i got nuthin
LeonhartFour | Posted 8/8/2008 3:05:45 PM | message detail
Tentative nominations filled out for now.
---
CBVII Nominations: Squall Leonhart, Tidus, Seifer, Diddy, Akuma, Roxas, Ocelot, Locke, Phoenix Wright, Gray Fox, Neku, Laguna, Protoman, Ken Masters, Sub-Zero
M_e_g_a_6_4 | Posted 8/8/2008 3:06:02 PM | message detail
Anyway, though it's been discussed quite a bit already, what characters should we focus our efforts on getting in? Untested potential that could cause waves? Granted, after six contests we're running low on untapped talent that didn't originate from games made this year or who aren't newcomers in Brawl, but worth discussing so we could see some interesting matches.

Darth Revan

He may have potential! Darth.
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 8/8/2008 3:08:00 PM | message detail
Yeah yeah, new contest = I'm back.

First of all, who did Sess want in case of a character battle for the Guru?

Secondly, NOMINATE PROTOMAN PEOPLE!

Thirdly, lol stats topic
---
Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy. -trancer1
LeonhartFour | Posted 8/8/2008 3:08:04 PM | message detail
Well, I'd like to see Ken Masters and Protoman in again. We haven't seen Ken since SC2K3, and he's got decent midcarder strength. Protoman never got a fair shake to begin with.

CBVII Nominations: Squall Leonhart, Tidus, Seifer, Diddy, Akuma, Roxas, Ocelot, Locke, Phoenix Wright, Gray Fox, Neku, Laguna, Protoman, Ken Masters, Sub-Zero

No one cares about Sess. Explicit Content won, and he wants Altair from Assassin's Creed.

SSBB FC: 4425-1156-3590
NOMINATE KNUCKLES THE ECHIDNA!
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 8/8/2008 3:10:41 PM | message detail
EC and Sess are the same person

M_e_g_a_6_4 | Posted 8/8/2008 3:13:05 PM | message detail
It kinda sounds like the contest after CB7 won't have nominations, so will there be two Guru nominations for CB8?
---
i got nuthin
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 8/8/2008 3:13:23 PM | message detail
Also, to get the wild speculation going, we are looking at big releases for both Mega Man and Crono.

MM9 will hit in September, but will the contest drag enough for CT:DS to impact?

XxSoulxX | Posted 8/8/2008 3:14:35 PM | message detail
Untested potential that could cause waves?

That should be the plan every year. Characters like Fox (who was in front of and behind SFF all last year), Glados (the villain from Portal and the singer of Still Alive), and even someone like Rosalina.

Good Times,
Great Memories
KamikazePotato | Posted 8/8/2008 3:15:08 PM | message detail
Rosalina would be Daisy 2.0.

Diddy Kong
Ike
King Dedede
Lucario
Lucas
Meta Knight
Olimar
Pit
Pokemon Trainer
R.O.B.
Wario
Wolf

How many of these guys will get in, and who will they be? I ignored Snake, Sonic, Toon Link, and Zero Suit Samus.
LeonhartFour | Posted 8/8/2008 3:16:00 PM | message detail
Super Mario Galaxy.

Somebody, please tell me when won the Character Rally. Or has there been one? And what the hell was the Guru's pick?

WWEGSB Hardcore Legend and Board 8er Masa/Hiko
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 8/8/2008 3:17:13 PM | message detail
Let's not nominate Rosalina. Revan deserves a shot, gents.

Darth Revan.
ZFS | Posted 8/8/2008 3:17:58 PM | message detail
Oh. Is she a princess or something?

Sounds like bad news.

HK-47 wasn't that hot, but at this point Revan might actually be stronger.

Eh, he's worth a shot. I'll nominate him.

So I've got:

Frog

Ike
Meta Knight

Not that many, I feel. It'll more boost current contest mainstays than really introduce that many new characters.

By the way, Moltar, although I haven't been in this topic for the offseason I will be during the contest season and I'd still like to be in the Analysis Crew again if possible.

I think my stunning performance last year in calling 4/5 huge upsets (Fenix, Kratos, Master Chief and Pikachu) mean I should get a spot on the crew.

Also the fact that I got a couple of guest writeup points as well.


<_<

Also, about the My Games thing, look on the bright side, it's better than nomination by era. At least now we're pretty much guarenteed a good mix of popular games and niche fodder.
