Nightmare isn't out of the woods yet.... And I'm amazed only 7 people on the leaderboard yesterday managed full points.

I must say, these simple matches are doing wonders for my bracket after
Division 1! 24 points, and this will be my fifth perfect match in a row. Of course, I'd exchange a winning bracket for more Division 1's! --- SNES Reviews - http://mega64.20ehost.com/ "[Wylvane]'s the type of guy we probably need more of around here to keep the place interesting." ~Smurf |

this fourpack is very comparable to what Crono got so later on we'll be able to see how strong Samus (and Crono) are this year. it's weird to see she dropping % during the power hour though.i doubt this will keep. |

Hmm....Crash is actually about 0.7% higher than he was at this point
against Magus/Phoenix/Bomberman. He rose over 5.5% from this point to
the end in that poll, so I'm not calling this one yet (true, against
Magus and Phoenix....but 15% to 21% is still an impressive move). --- Character Battle VII --- Score: 28/32 --- T-8 (119 way) Bracket: Samus > Nightmare --- Vote: Samus |

Nightmare went up in the day against Snake, too, so he's not going to
collapse or anything. and Snake, bad as he is, ain't Phoenix or Magus. --- xyzzy http://users.tpg.com.au/112358//85454546braidav.gif |

Disagree on the comparison between Crono/Samus's pack. Nightmare would destroy anyone in Crono's pack. ... though I suppose all three of em are about equal to Crash. Maybe that's about right thinking this over. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 1 - Raiden/Kain/Other Dude. Target: 48%. GAME FUEL. Believe |

trannyscience (#274) tran, you also forget that at this point in the match, Phoenix was what, stalling Magus? Nobody this side of Tetris pieces drop like Wrighto did in that match. >_> --- i am false |

Crono's pack looks much, much, weaker to me....Nightmare >>
Amaterasu, Crash > Frank West, Raz is probably comparable to Kaim. --- Character Battle VII --- Score: 28/32 --- T-8 (119 way) Bracket: Samus > Nightmare --- Vote: Samus |
| __hiei__ | Posted 9/25/2008 9:24:20 PM | message detail |

i believe Amaterasu vs Nightmare could be arguable (with nightmare as the favorite of course) and the other two,weak as they are,as you said,are about crash level.no one there is as weak as raz. so i believe the packs are about equal in strength |

Oh, I thought he was saying Samus's 4-pack this year was about equal to Crono's 4-pack last year. --- CB7 Score: 20/28 - Woo Fei. English is my second language. And Sho made me like math. -_HarpuiaX_ |

Worried about Frog tomorrow. This contest has a few traditions... *GTA and Kefka flopping *Tidus and Shadow disappointing *Warcraft/Blizzard doing something impressive *Frog winning an epic match...that he was expected to win easily Frog vs. KOS-MOS seems to be a pretty close call already, but who knows if Frog has weakened since last year. Of course, KOS-MOS could've weakened too, as I know of no reason she should be stronger. But hopefully Frog can pull it out. At least KOS-MOS won't obliterate him with the ASV, though even KOS-MOS will likely win that against Frog. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

dunno... Lost Odyssey is like... one of the few games that isn't a

Kaim's going to pull an easy third in his match, I think. He won't be
nearly as weak as some people are expecting, but he's not going to be
all that strong either. Still, he wouldn't have trouble with the Razs of the world. --- let's mosey |

I've Kaim in second. I dunno, maybe I'm just underestimating Amaterasu.
I will say this though... Ada Wong was probably weakened by Dante in
R2, and Amaterasu only beat Balthier, the guy who got destroyed by Ada
freaking Wong the round previous, by two or three percent as I recall. I think Kaim Argonar has a good chance for second there. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 1 - Raiden/Kain/Other Dude. Target: 48%. GAME FUEL. Believe |
