And Shadow is starting to do relatively well here in the late stages of the ASV. He's over 15%, at least. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: CATS, Nathan Drake, Yoshi |

Yeah, if you turn the hourlies into a one on one match this is one of the biggest vote shifts of all time. --- "I'm a coward... A coward who cannot even defy orders he knows he ought not follow ..."--Cecil Harvey, FFIV |

It's not a bad picture in and of itself, but like...I played FFVI in Anthology too and it took me a second to remember what that was. In other news, sometimes I wish there was more horizontal room in the full-body match pics because if this were Sephiroth's picture, TSF would totally give him 100% of the vote...! http://www.creativeuncut.com/gallery-02/art/kh-sephiroth-model.jpg (seriously that thing has to be at least twelve feet long) --- Attention, all yoctograms!

I think this ensures nobody else gets a sprite pic this round aside from maybe The Dog if Kefka wasn't given one. --- NRT winners: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong Country 2 Remember these games! |

KamikazePotato (#362) We are talking about Tales of the Abyss characters. One could end up stronger than the other just depending on what the weather is that day.

Man, when is Zidane going to stop bleeding? He'll finish above 18%, but
the higher that 18 is the better he looks against ZackFAQs. --- Brawl FC: 4296-2658-3681 (KP) |
M80TheWolf | Posted 9/19/2008 3:18:58 PM | message detail |
yeah I don't know why everyone was expecting Luke to do so much worse
than Jade. I thought it was pretty clear they were going to do roughly
the same. If you're willing to vote for one of their pathetic asses,
you're probably willing to vote for the others, Link or not. --- hungry like the wolf |
LeonhartFour | Posted 9/19/2008 3:19:46 PM | message detail |
At the rate he's dropping, Zidane may not stay above 18%. Once we get
into the second night vote, he should be able to stem the tide somewhat. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: CATS, Nathan Drake, Yoshi |

Cecil did yesterday as well, so perhaps Old Square has regained ground with the dead zone and during school crowd. Or maybe it was just their opponents; Wario/Zack and Link/Shadow are both definitely day slanted. --- Mustache...and green... |

Good thing about Kefka and his terrible pics is his name is at least
pretty instantly recognizable. I don't think he's getting confused with
any other Kefkas. Still that picture is ridiculous. What depths of internet hell did the guy who found that pic go to? --- hungry like the wolf |

I didn't realize it was a bonus FMV for people who already beat the
game, but I'll still take it for the fact that it can be seen in game
and at least resembles Kefka as the final boss. --- NRT winners: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong Country 2 Remember these games! |

Who else is packin Kefka>Marth I feel a little bit more comfortable after Zidane and Zack's showing --- Believe |
LeonhartFour | Posted 9/19/2008 3:42:12 PM | message detail |
My bracket has Marth > Niko, but with all this SquareFAQs domination, watch out, Kefka's coming! Link's consistency here has me wondering if the trends have changed around here. Tomorrow will tell us a lot, I think. See if Marth has a great day vote and if Kefka bombs come sunrise. Niko and Duke should be day vote characters, too, right? Basically, that means Kefka needs to be winning (or at least in second place) by a pretty good margin before morning. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: CATS, Nathan Drake, Yoshi |

Honestly I think Shadow had something to do with Link's day vote. I
expected it to be the other way around, but this is a crazy match
all-around. --- Brawl FC: 4296-2658-3681 (KP) |

I still have a hard time understanding why this is so awful for Kefka.
At least he looks like a person now (although, hey, that might be a
detriment in this contest SANDBAG). When does he wear lettuce in the
SNES version? How recognizable is that pic? --- Yoblazer: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

About Kefka pics, surely there must have been some newer pics of him in the manual/game from the GBA version of FF6 or (some preview pics) from Dissidia right? |

trannyscience | Posted 9/19/2008 4:13:10 PM | message detail |
in Dissidia he looks like the Joker. I don't think Kefka is as picture-sensitive as everyone else seems to.. that's just part of his strength at this point, a bad picture. --- xyzzy http://users.tpg.com.au/112358//85454546braidav.gif |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 9/19/2008 4:14:50 PM | message detail |
I'd never be able to look at that sprite, and then at lettuce, and then
recognize the two. Poor Kefka, but at least his theme is awesome. --- Yoblazer: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
trannyscience | Posted 9/19/2008 4:15:51 PM | message detail |
I don't think the point is whether it's better or worse than lettuce,
it's whether it's Kefka at all. I have utterly no idea what that
picture is. I think it's silly that we're whining about it though... didn't everyone who picked Kefka in here expect a bad picture? --- xyzzy http://users.tpg.com.au/112358//85454546braidav.gif |
