Not interesting at all. Samus is weaker than Mario and Mario stood up better to Link.

yeah, I noticed those too -- I'm not dumb enough to say that Samus is going to hold up as well as Mario given Mario/Samus in 2005. what I'm saying is that Samus didn't get murdered, she did pretty damn well given her reputation.

Not very before RE5. He's like the least popular of the RE mains. I'd wager WESKER is stronger.

2003: Samus loses to Link 62/38. Mario loses to Seph 62/38. Mega Man loses to Seph 62/38. Mario goes 50/50 with Crono, and lets Shadow get 45 on him. Mario places ahead of Samus in the stats by .2% thanks to some freaky Seph/Cloud crap that allowed Seph to get 49%.

2004: Samus gets 41% on Cloud, and beats Sonic into oblivion with 57.5% of the vote. Mario loses to Crono 53-47. Samus finishes in the stats 8% higher than Mario.


I'd be reluctant to go back to 2003 and 2004 because it's obvious that Mario was much stronger in 2005 than in those two years. I'd agree that Samus was indirectly stronger than Mario in 2004, but in 2005, I don't necessarily agree.

And I'm not sure why 40% on Cloud puts Samus within striking distance of Sephiroth. It doesn't. Samus ain't getting 45% on 2005 Link indirectly either like Sephiroth did. I just can't see it. Of course, there's no way we'll know because she can't do that directly. I have a hard time believing Samus can beat Sephiroth, who got 55% on Mario, and then struggle to get 40% on Mario directly. Maybe if Samus had done better in that match with Mario, I'd consider it. She just got beaten too badly.

And what in the world is Bacon thinkin' giving Sora that picture? He's making some questionable decisions. It's almost like he's doing it on purpose or something! Good picture for Fox though, and maybe Sora will take advantage of TBF (The Back Factor)!

Definitely closer than I would have expected a few weeks ago (that's why I didn't go with the ever popular ten trillion > signs), but I still think Auron carries his duo through. Guy's a monster.

Now all we need is Viewtiful Dante...

Also, for tomorrow, I submitted this on a whim:

http://img.imgcake.com/Zen/cats_2.png

It looks TERRIBLE, but I figured if somebody actually submitted Eggplant CATS and Bacon didn't want to use face CATS, then he'd pick this because it's nice and inbetween.

But with the decisions he's been making, he'll pick that regardless. Ugh. I shouldn't have worried over nothing...

No, he's significantly stronger - Auron outdid Sora's percentage against Alucard signficantly more than Sora could do against Gordon Freeman. I'll say it again - Mega Man is very clearly the back end of the Noble Nine, and by a non-trivial margin. His paths have just been largely set in stone ever since 2k6.

It's still a better pic than the rest.

In contrast, people will notice him first and vote for him. He's so damn bright and doesn't blend into the background like the rest.

And I'd take Auron to beat Sora in this format (or any format, to be honest), but he wouldn't smoke him. Sora's still pretty good. I think Fox is definitely a step below his range. Sora's closer to Vincent than Fox is to him, so I wouldn't expect a miraculous win.

And Chris's pic is too dark.
