Hey, I'm back in the Top 50. Too bad I've got Cloud > Squall
today.... oh and L-Block in the final 4. Still, always fun to get back
onto the leaderboard one last time this year. --- Detroit Red Wings 2008 Stanley Cup Champions! |

I'm not being a douche, I'm just getting my deserved shots in. And I got called an idiot when I said it was an easy call. Same thing with Sora getting last, I got called dumb on that. Were you not a LITTLE smug when you got the Zidane match right? I get to be a little smug here because I called it right on all cylinders. --- ExThaNemesis is the man. http://img.imgcake.com/ omghawttt13141.jpg |

So for people who don't think there is anything fishy going on at all here... Why did Mewtwo struggle with Midna last round? --- http://news.cnet.com/i/bto/20071030/cube-2_540x618.jpg http://card.mygamercard.net/aero/Albion+Hero.png |

It's not just your rallying, it's the fact that the match was close.
Lots of people were watching. The first example I can think of is
FFVII/OOT. It was right after CT/LTTP, and started out with massive
votals (even though it had been clear CT was going to win for a couple
hours already), and ended lower than CT/LTTP. --- Crono's quest to beat Mario: 5 days until: Crono vs. Samus vs. Vincent vs. Pikachu |

Same thing with Sora getting last, I got called dumb on that. Because it was dumb. Sora isn't getting last here. Were you not a LITTLE smug when you got the Zidane match right? I get to be a little smug here because I called it right on all cylinders. Opposite, actually. I celebrated that day, but I admitted that the pick was out of fanboyism and that I didn't deserve that much credit for getting it right. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

There we go! Cloud with his first >40% update. Squall took everything he lost back too. I wonder... does this result also make Cloud's 1st round pack look good to? Are Edgeworth and Axel Steel gonna be extrapolated from Cloud, or from Midna? >_< --- http://www.court-records.net/manga/4koma/(eng)4koma2.png |

Sora and Squall are dropping now.....and Mewtwo is holding onto his percentage despite Cloud rocketing skyward? --- Crono's quest to beat Mario: 5 days until: Crono vs. Samus vs. Vincent vs. Pikachu |

Two of my finalists are already dead. Stop being smug you jerks I can't join you in smugness. But seriously, this is why we MUST, by the powers of whatever the hell exists across the universe, get Auron over Sonic in two days. If Mewtwo can do this against three Square characters, imagine Snake in the same scenario. --- Yoblazer: http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/3699/thegamefaqsticketxr8.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

As much as I want to join you, yo, consider the match - Sephiroth/Kratos/Auron/Sonic. It might as well be this match in terms of which character stands out like a sore thumb. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

I didn't think Mewtwo would do this well even though there is triple SquareFF happening here. What the hell almost made Mewtwo lose to Midna back in round 2?! --- "If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh." -Magus |

Lopen | Posted 11/9/2008 9:27:48 PM | message detail |
This is just a case of over saturation of Square.
Square can't hit much over 70% unless the opponent is just that weak, I
guess. Same reason Mario was apparently hurt slightly more by Mudkip
and Zelda than Luigi. Doubt Zelda or kip alone could come close to the
same damage. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 3 - Dante/Leon/Kirby. Target: 48%. Robot LFF/SFF from Raiden? I THINK SO. Believe |

Mewtwo taking second is hardly shocking, but this 28% stuff sure is. I
mean, weren't people calling Magus a Noble 9 breaker back when he got
~35% on Link? Now Mewtwo's getting ~30% on Cloud and Squall AND Sora - who is at least as cartoony - and the general consensus is "meh"? It boggles the mind! |
