"I've been telling you for five years that Cloud's win was tainted." Hes still been the second strongest character in every contest besides that and the crappy four way ones regardless. --- Can't think of a good sig. |

Wait yeah wtf. By classic Link I'm thinking of the ones from like the
first game through ALTTP with brown hair. OOT Link is hardly classic. --- Can't think of a good sig. |

Just got home. Lousy stupid early Snake vote %#@%&!! :) Saw the bonus poll. Seems like the poll ID skipped 3307 and went from 3306 to 3308, so the updater didn't see it. Changed that. IMO Classic Link is SFFing Young Link very heavily here. I think without Classic Link in the poll, Young Link might actually beat out the other two, even though he's doing Tanner-level bad here. --- Save_Us.RAT BREAK THE BLOCK DOWN |

Ike is obviously much stronger than Arthas. Fun fact: I initially had Link>Snake in my bracket, then later changed it when I realized how silly it was (not that it would have helped, this has probably been my worst contest year yet). --- FastFalcon believed in Snake. I didn't. |
