I think he's implying that she's not really getting pummled into the ground like all logic dictates she should.

I'm not seeing any effects of SFF so far. Even if he does get to high
40s, 30-31% is about what I'd expect for Tifa in this match not
counting sff. --- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/RyanSaotome/rydia.gif http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/Albion+Hero.png |

Tranny's probably half right. He's half-wrong because most of us thought noone cared about Tifa and just voted her for her game, when it actually seems like she does indeed have a fanbase (unless these are just the same perverted losers that voted for Rydia yesterday) --- I want adventure in the great wide somewhere...

I said that Sephiroth wouldn't be at 50% before you wake up, which shouldn't be any later than 12:00 PM EST. ...On a normal weekend I could argue that <_< But this weekend I'm working, so yeah. --- Official Queen ***** of the Universe! Biden/Obama...er, I mean Obama/Biden '08! |

Tifa's likely going to end up around the mid-20s by the end of the
match. Most of Sephiroth's percentage increase will be at Tifa's
expense, but she'll still end up looking well here. I figured she would
be able to resist SFF against Sephiroth more than someone like Vincent
would (not that SFF was Vincent's only problem last year). Round 2
should be interesting to see, depending on just how far Tifa drops. --- six bullets. more than enough to kill anything that moves. |

Looks like Crono & co will no longer be the ass end of the day vote once CT:DS comes out. The question then is, who will be the ass end of the day vote? I personally think Aeris, as she lost the day vote to a Chrono Trigger character, and if that's NOT evidence that your day vote is god-awful, then I don't know what IS! --- Isaac and Princess Kumatora for SSB4!

Depending on how this goes down during the say Tifa and Sephiroth
aren't holding up particularly well against Nana and Ratchet. Tifa
should be safely tripling both of them, and she's not. Obviously the
two are being held back by SFF, but based on how well TIfa's holding
up, they should be doing a bit better. --- ""--Banjo |

I think we might be seeing something along the lines of what happened
with Link and Mario/Samus last year. Both Mario and Samus held up much
better to Link SFF than we expected, presumably because the Nintendo
fanbase was confident Link would win anyway. --- Evvivan: Character Battle VII --- Score: 88/112 --- T-300 (103 way) Bracket: Sonic > Magus --- Vote: Magus |

I would peg nana and Ratchet at 5% and 7% against Sephiroth and somone
else at Tifa's level, so naturally they're going to look better with
the SFF. --- I want adventure in the great wide somewhere... I want it more than I can tell! - Belle http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/3949/beautyandthebeast21024uh9.jpg |

It makes me want to see Mega Man/Sephiroth, as Mega Man is way more
frontloaded than Crono. He was leading Samus for the first hour last
year. --- I want adventure in the great wide somewhere... I want it more than I can tell! - Belle http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/3949/beautyandthebeast21024uh9.jpg |

Samus with Yoshi in the poll, for whatever it's worth. I know Tifa's
with Sephiroth here, but don't compare that to Mega/Samus without
mentioning Yoshi. Check out Samus/Mega the next round: http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/images/poll_graph.php?matchnum=2919&type=0&seconds=60&max=0 Very different story from the picture you're trying to paint, BT.

Crono was at 54% during the first hour against Megaman and finished at
51%. That was back when polls started at 3 AM, but CT has looked much
more frontloaded since the time changed to 12 Eastern (Vincent actually
reached his highest percentage against Crono at around 7 or 8 in the
morning in their 2005 match). --- Evvivan: Character Battle VII --- Score: 88/112 --- T-300 (103 way) Bracket: Sonic > Magus --- Vote: Magus |

You know, I wasn't really paying attention to the first few matches.
But this is the first match I've seen that was just like "why?" I mean
we've had heaps of worthless fodder, but the combination of worthless
fodder and dueling FF7 characters has really created a deadly cocktail
right here. Abstain vote gooooo! --- Should I start running now? |

So as I (finally) go to bed, Sephiroth is at 42.7% and Tifa is at
30.96%...I would say that I don't understand this contest anymore, but
that would imply that there was a point at which I did. --- Official Queen ***** of the Universe! Biden/Obama...er, I mean Obama/Biden '08! |

Let's not go crazy here <_< I remember having Sephiroth winning in my bracket when those two first met... And he very nearly DID. But seriously, if Tifa weren't FF7 Sephy would be looking awful here.

People might be voting for Tifa because they know Sephiroth will advance. And they're worried about her against NANA AND RATCHET???? I think the picture is having *some* effect (what's up Rydia), but I would've thought it to be less than half of a percentage point. At the very most, it should be resisting SFF.

Know when to admit defeat yo. <_< The only way that Kratos/Ocelot

I wouldn't go as far as to claim "rsff". Tifa (2005c) VS Sephiroth (2005c) Tifa has a strength of 33.57. Sephiroth has a strength of 49.16. Sephiroth wins with 65.86% of the vote! A win of 36,320 with 114,529 total votes cast. Seph's currently got 58% of the votes between them, but those numbers always underestimate the difference and this won't be this close by the end of the match. it looks fairly linear to me, this match. --- xyzzy la la la you're dead la la la la we killed you la la la |

I'm pretty sure they don't worry about stuff like that. They'd vote and

If Tifa keeps up what's she doing, I like her a lot for next round.
She'll end up a good bit below 30% here, but it'll be quite a bit above
her expectations. Sephiroth won't be looking as good I figured either. Gotta see how tomorrow goes. Can't say anything about round 2 until then. --- six bullets. more than enough to kill anything that moves. |

I get the feeling the SFF will be more apparent when the competition is stronger. http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/drupal/node/22?matchnum=2923&num=4 Cloud put up like 64.4% on Sephiroth there. He's never come close to such a percentage before (even in the Battle Royal). Half of these results are screwy. Don't just trust the numbers; try to think how Sephiroth will allow Tifa to perform well enough to take second place despite two strong guys with devoted fanbases in the poll. Very unlikely. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/16hnm05.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

I kind of see this as being Sephiroth vs. Not Sephiroth. Tifa gets most of those votes. a lot of apathy votes will be moving from Tifa to Kratos and Ocelot. this isn't to say that Tifa will get killed necessarily, but there's not much to vote for here if you don't like FF7. --- xyzzy la la la you're dead la la la la we killed you la la la |
