Man,
Ocarina needs to ditch these weirdass games like Pokemon and Melee and
reach something we all know it can SFF into nothingness. However, we
have no idea whether or not LttP is one of those games. It probably
ain't. --- Meeks54's sig for a stupid pick that had no chance. I even had it coming in first. MWC>Yo Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be.....LIKE MWC!!! |

So back to an earlier question, how many Pokemon should we rally? I'd like to see Jigglypuff and Charizard in there. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: LoZ: OoT > MGS Points: 219/320 |

Only way 8-ways would work is if we included fictional characters from all forms of media! Best(?) of both worlds! It wouldn't be all media, it would just be "appeared in a video game". Anybody who'd be worth a damn has appeared in a video game anyway. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

From: charmander6000 | #203 One. Charizard. And I don't think he should take priority over Cid Highwind or Darth Revan. --- Meeks54's sig for a stupid pick that had no chance. I even had it coming in first. MWC>Yo Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be.....LIKE MWC!!! |

8-ways would be hilarious and we could have 512 characters/games, over 3/4's of which nobody would care about. Pokemon could probably provide 151 or so characters above the fodder line. >_> --- Shall I take you with me? To the place in this town where wishes come true... |

2
straight cuts, so its likely gonna be a trend. But the question is...
how much of a lead can MGS get? It already needs to swing 300 --- http://www.xboxlc.com/cards/blue2/Albion%20Hero.jpg http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/kotaku/2009/04/scorpion_wb.jpg |

MGS probably gets like a 500 vote lead here overnight. I think it could run it to 1000, dunno if it could hold that though. --- xyzzy http://img.imgcake.com//chewing.jpg |

One. Charizard. And I don't think he should take priority over Cid Highwind or Darth Revan. Why be competitive? There's almost no one left to rally. I mean, we can try for Seifer...again...but that still leaves 4 spots open. There's room. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

Pokemon's The Giants! Huge Giants fan here, and I take this to be big disrespect :) You can compare Mr. "Can't throw in the wind even though I play at FREAKIN' GIANTS STADIUM" Eli to Pikachu all you want to though! (I guess the Pikachu>L-Block similarities actually work there) A Worst.Game.Ever contest could be interesting. FF7 wins easy as hell.

I'm biased because I use her in Smash, but Jigglypuff could be worthwhile since it's been in every smash game, too. --- One of the most troublesome things in life is that what you do or do not want has little to do with what does or does not happen. 4983-4640-3352 Brawl Code |

Although
Cid would be stronger, I think I'd rather see Yuffie or Cait Sith in
just to see if hated FFVII characters can be fodder, or just midcarders. --- http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j69/War13104/CenaJFrog.gif hey look i'm war and i'm stupid - WVI |

We
don't need to rally anyone. We pretty much know everyone's strength
that hasn't made it yet. FF7 characters = strong. New characters =
weak. Everything else = fodder to mid fodder. --- Good Times, Great Memories |

LeonhartFour | Posted 5/28/2009 9:59:17 PM | message detail |
But
if you're looking for characters who haven't been in yet that could be
above the fodder line, then Jecht probably qualifies. FFX characters
are quasi-FFVII characters. A good number of them have decent strength. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

The only exception I can see is a super-LFF scenario, like last round with the Pokemons. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

Reno is loved (I think?). That's like saying let's toss in a hated

Wow,
RBY really was frontloaded last time. Its day vote was nothing special,
and it might be worse today with the undisputed day vote king sharing
the poll. exactly. RBY's dropped .7% in 25 minutes. MGS isn't exactly taking advantage though, so I'll call RBY the favourite. but it wouldn't surprise me one bit if MGS won. --- yzzyx |

with the force of a thousand suns. God, what could have been. Instead, we got X-2. Oh right you are. I would've ate that game up, and I never even played X-2, despite FFX being among my all-time favorites. Hmm, I think I remember somebody in this topic saying something like this a few years ago.

I
don't think the last name really hurts. It's not like any other Cids
were that popular, and Highwind gives him Kain Highwind factor! --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

*listens to SSBM version of Pokemon main theme* What the hey is happening? I said I wouldn't be surprised if Pokemon took 2nd, but, well, I'm speechless. My percentages seem quite close enough to what they are now, except that I have 2nd and 4th place reversed. And this reminds me of how I got mauled by Master and Crazy Hand yesterday while playing SSBM as Pikachu, on normal difficulty (yes, I got there and lost 5 lives fighting the hands! I'm not playing SSBM again for a long time, though I'm still voting for it). Believe it or not, Final Fantasy VII has managed 10k more votes than the A Link to the Past, which had the highest votal of the round until yesterday. WTH? Super Mario 64 had 5k less votes than Mario World, Chrono Trigger about same, and GoldenEye was slightly worse than Super Metroid. Do you mean to say that Super Mario 64 was SFFing GoldenEye worse than Zelda 3 was doing to Super Metroid (which was also being held down by Zelda 4)? Final Fantasy VII kept about 98.33% of its votes from last round, and about 78.58% of its votes from the round before. GoldenEye kept about 70.54% of its votes from last round, and about 43.89% of its votes from the round before. Super Mario 64 kept about 65.39% of its votes from last round, and about 55.61% of its votes from the round before. Chrono Trigger kept about 67.19% of its votes from last round, and about 43.01% of its votes from the round before. Wow, GoldenEye did a good job at resisting SFF, and whoa Final Fantasy VII! Seems like the two combatants of the "main" attraction both lost about the same amount of votes from last round, confirming that GoldenEye hurts Super Mario 64 just a tiny bit more than Final Fantasy VII hurts Chrono Trigger. These stats make it seem that no game was SFFd. |
