Oh man! Go Squall! Eat that dinosaur alive!

Yeah, I really wish Cloud were in some other division so Squall could go to the quarterfinals and we could see him against Vincent or something.

Squall's not even going down that much with the dreaded Mario morning vote. I get the feeling we may see him finish above 45%.

just for the record

Falco Lombardi 26.82% 37158
GlaDOS 20% 27708
Vincent Valentine 45.67% 63262
Wander 7.51% 10405

And if Mewtwo dominates his upcoming match like I think he will...whoa boy. This division just got tons interesting.


I've said from day one that this division would end up interesting. We have 2 interesting matches coming up, and the next 2 rounds should be great!

Nintendo Deboost = Axel > Midna
Nintendo Deboost + SFF = Pac > Ness

Keep the faith man...

Yoshi is trash... and we've yet to see Mewtwo...

This is damn impressive and maybe... just maybe... Squall has built some independence from Cloud over the years.

Hot damn... I thought Squall > Sora was going down last night... can't believe how well Squall is still doing. I dare say I'm tempted to call Squall > Sora the favorite at this point.

Cloud/Squall/Sora/Mewtwo

...do all 3 characters have a chance at placing 2nd in that match?

When you choose who you want your guitar player to be it says his name... other than that it never really comes up.

I think regardless of the name thing, it'll be reliant upon the picture. Even with this massive Nintendo drop off, I can't see any Zelda character losing to a Guitar Hero "character".

Oh man, I'm lovin' this match. I should have never doubted you, Squall! And the only problem is that I don't want Sora to beat out Yoshi because that will kill ANY chance Squall has to advance in round three with Squall. Still don't see it happening though if Yoshi's there. Squall and Auron are about equal, and I'd say Yoshi's probably got the advantage over Ryu. Plus, Cloud is going to SFF Squall worse than he did Auron. There's no doubt about that. Just have to hope Squall's got enough of a hardcore base.

Yesterday's chart:

Time | Chris R. | Fox | Sora | Tim
PHV | 22.59% | 32.50% | 36.80% | 8.12% | (0:00-1:00)
FNV | 25.87% | 28.53% | 38.30% | 7.30% | (1:00-6:00)
BSV | 23.69% | 31.17% | 38.85% | 6.28% | (6:00-9:00)
DSV | 25.41% | 29.79% | 38.33% | 6.47% | (9:00-14:30)
ASV | 22.41% | 31.19% | 40.39% | 6.02% | (14:30-22:00)
SNV | 23.13% | 29.43% | 41.13% | 6.31% | (22:00-24:00)

Fox with a strong Power Hour and a weak night vote, typical Nintendo trends for him, though his night vote wasn't really THAT bad. Sora didn't get a strong KH ASV, but he did well all around. He basically went up all day. LOL Tim

And as an avid Squall fan, I hate that Dissidia pic. I'm okay with Squall having a pretty boy look, but he looks way too feminine in that Dissidia art. Bleh.

And this match makes Mega Man look really bad. LOL BT

Most schools are still open. Jewish kids are excused but they won't close schools for a minority holiday here, at least.

The division between the morning vote and the DSV has really been blurred so far this year, actually. I think I recall Luigi doing the same thing as Yoshi here.

Actually, that is another bit of evidence for the return of SquareFAQS: this year's trends have been less pronounced than those of the past couple of years, as were the trends back in 2003-4. And Squall is now at 58.26% of Squall/Yoshi votes, less than 2% behind what he got on Luigi in 2003. And this simple calculation is supposed to underrate the stronger character somewhat, right? Hopefully Cloud will dominate tomorrow, and then Auron and Sephiroth will too, so we can start up the Cloud > Link train again.

I don't see Yoshi being able to totally SFF a pretty strong Nintendo character though. Maybe not a total leeching, but I think Fox can hold his own.

Sora held up extremely well against Squall with Aeris in the poll; in the next round, with Sonic/Sub-Zero/Squall, Sora still managed to beat Sub-Zero comfortably, and managed close to 40% of Squall/Sora votes, only a little less than Yoshi is getting today- this is impressive when you consider that Squall only lost by around 2000 votes to Sonic, even with Sora in the poll. If you look at Squall's next match, he again loses to Sonic by about the same margin without Sora in the poll, which would seem to indicate that Squall/Sora really didn't hurt each other much.
