Seriously though (well as serious as you can get doing wild extrapolations with 12-ways), 45% is too much, but if we replaced Meta-Knight with Link and gave Link 40% by pushing Peach and Marth down to 4% each, and then splitting the rest of the difference between MK and Link proportionally among the other characters.....

Link gets 88.66% on CATS, about 1% better than he did in 2004.

Link probably breaks 90% on CATS now.

Maybe. I dunno. Link's stronger than he was in 2004, and CATS is around the same, maybe weaker.

I've heard people suggest it, but with the horrible vote totals, I doubt Bacon would seriously consider it.

Plus, what in the world would the pics look like?

I doubt Bacon doesn't pull at least a few strings here. There's absolutely no way that CATS doesn't make a bracket.

If he was going to pull strings, why put CATS in this poll to begin with? He should know that CATS would be unlikely to place in the top half.

Assuming he's already got the bracket set up, and he's just plugging in these characters as they win, pretty good.

I don't know if I'd assume that though.

I don't believe there is a correct combination of words in the English language to correctly represent how much lower than 0 this is.

Not including CATS isn't that bad. His early vote hasn't been the same recently either......his thing is supposed to be to lead anyone for a few seconds, but recently a few is more like 1 or none.

His early vote is diminished in larger polls, but he's still a contest tradition. I can see where you're coming from if you want the 128 strongest and most interesting (in terms of potential) characters in there and can't afford room for CATS, but every year we get weak crap rallied for that both have no chance of advancing and are not nearly as funny as CATS (and CATS is coming up on a freakin' decade).

I mean, I love HaRRicH and all, but Doc Louis? Seriously man, why?

3 years later, I'm not sure getting CJayC to move the poll start time to midnight was such a good idea. I think the 3 AM trend patterns gave us more intereting matches, at the cost of having the beginning and end of matches be inaccessible here on the East Coast without losing lots of sleep.

LeonhartFour | Posted 12/12/2009 10:20:10 PM | message detail
I dunno. I tend to be more in favor of having 128 strong characters. I don't even mind joke characters as long as they're worth something.

I won't even mind having L-Block back now that I know he's not an auto-win.
