So, do you guys think there is Dante/Leon LFF? Riku did close the
distance a little bit with Leon in the 2nd round despite that horrible
picture. I'm kinda expecting Kirby and Master Chief to look like beasts
in this match. --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

Of course there is Dante/Leon LFF. Leon doesn't go from beating Pikachu
in round 2 by 10% to losing by 9% cuz of something like a pic. --- http://news.cnet.com/i/bto/20071030/cube-2_540x618.jpg http://card.mygamercard.net/aero/Albion+Hero.png |

Games Contest > 2k3 > 2k5 > 2k6 > 2k4 > 2k8 > 2k7 > Series Contest > Villains Contest This is a very good opinion, though I would put 2k7 > 2k8, and...Games Contest is a little too high, but it seems fine since it's so refreshing and there haven't been 6 of them. --- caps |

If I had predicted that Pikachu would have destroyed L-Block in his
match, even if it turned out to be right, it still would've been dumb
logic as it goes against everything we've seen up until that point. Its hard to really take credit for most of the predictions in this contest...it's less analyzing and extrapolating and more like throwing darts and hoping you hit the bullseye. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

Nonsense. You could reasonably expect Sora to get hurt as much or worse as Squall based on past matches. --- Mustache...and green... |
| red sox 777 | Posted 11/10/2008 6:33:18 PM | message detail |

There's a rather large difference between this match and
L-Block/Pikachu (and I didn't think Mewtwo could do it either).
Besides, no one called for Pikachu > L-Block with any confidence-
and if someone did, I would hesitate to say they got lucky. --- Crono's quest to beat Mario: 5 days until: Crono vs. Samus vs. Vincent vs. Pikachu |

are people still acting like this is an unexpected result? Pikachu over L, you've got a point there. (you could make an argument for Pikachu, but it would have been unlikely) this is nothing unusual... at all. --- xyzzy http://isobamapresident.com/ |

I'm rather referring to Squall over Sora (which I know isn't on the level of Pikachu, I was just using a reference). --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

...but I explained to you in very easy to understand logic, and even gave EXAMPLES as to why I felt that way(hiya Aeris/Sora). Yeah, I can agree that this contest is bonkers, but I called this match to a freggin' T and should get credit for it as such. --- ExThaNemesis is the man. http://img.imgcake.com/ omghawttt13141.jpg |

There are times when people don't have good
logic to back up their picks and it works out... Alucard > Captain
Falcon and Marth > Duke Nukem come to mind, but I wouldn't say that
today was one such occasion. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 3 - Dante/Leon/Kirby. Target: 48%. Robot LFF/SFF from Raiden? I THINK SO. Believe |

And this is coming from someone who thought Cloud > Sora was gonna
happen for sure. There was definitely logic in Extha's pick. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 3 - Dante/Leon/Kirby. Target: 48%. Robot LFF/SFF from Raiden? I THINK SO. Believe |

I thought this result was absolutely expected if Sora made it this far
with Squall? The only thing that put doubt in our minds was Mewtwos
suckage against Midna. --- Demyx is better than Axel. |

Aeris/Sora 2k3? Cause there's an Aeris/Sora 2k7 that easily counters that one. And fine, fine, congrats for calling the match. I'm just saying Squall over Sora still makes little sense (in my book, anyway). (I thought Mewtwo would advance btw) --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |
| trannyscience | Posted 11/10/2008 6:41:40 PM | message detail |

those two were bound to be pretty close to each other. Squall beating
Sora isn't really noteworthy, and they're essentially equal anyway. --- xyzzy http://isobamapresident.com/ |

Uh, Squall > Sora really isn't very surprising. Cloud was in Kingdom
Hearts, and Squall is naturally stronger....of course he had a chance
to beat Sora. I also don't understand why people think Alucard >
Falcon was bad logic....we'd never seen Diddy before, so why should we
think he was stronger than Falcon? --- Crono's quest to beat Mario: 5 days until: Crono vs. Samus vs. Vincent vs. Pikachu |

Marth > Duke Nukem come to mind There was some logic in that, I thought. All would have taken was Duke and Gordon splitting in R1, Kefka disappointing, and GTA disappointing. Duke winning to such a degree was surprising, though. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

And by the way I know people were making fun of Albion for suggesting that Mewtwo was stuffing at the beginning last night, but I'm inclined to believe he was right. Mewtwo's drop off since the first half an hour is nearly on the level of 2k7 L-Block. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 3 - Dante/Leon/Kirby. Target: 48%. Robot LFF/SFF from Raiden?

I also don't understand why people think Alucard > Falcon was bad
logic....we'd never seen Diddy before, so why should we think he was
stronger than Falcon? It was bad logic because Kratos Aurion was more impressive in every contest he had been in than Falcon was. Even if you figured that Diddy was weaker than Falcon (which was very weak), him splitting with Falcon made Kratos a shoe-in. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

Kratos Aurion is a Tales character. Further, it is not clear at all to me that 36% on Scorpion is better than 25% on Crono. --- Crono's quest to beat Mario: 5 days until: Crono vs. Samus vs. Vincent vs. Pikachu |

you've got three Square characters that never get the early vote,
including one of the worst proportional early votes of all time that's
sucking up a lot of the vote, vs. a Nintendo character the board backs
big-time. nothing weird about that other than the circumstances of the
match. --- xyzzy http://isobamapresident.com/ |
