I'm just glad the guru pick was someone who wasn't a shoe-in already this time around. |

From: UltimaterializerX | #149 Yoshi's Island was the guru pick for the games contest, didn't it do poorly? --- It may be insulting, but it's true! Now this is entertainment! |

I'd probably pick Jigglypuff or Seifer. Can't think of anyone else more deserving to finally get in one of these. --- .,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,. "Oh that the world were more like Ulti." -Meeks54 |

It's like you've never seen a board vote before, Harrich. Uh, I addressed several angles of the situation, not just "Ike is doomed," and I imagine I'm usually thought of as conservative when talking about the early board votes because I'm almost always telling people the match is still early when others are ringing the bell. Don't start. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

Anyone
who thinks a major, well-liked FFVII character with the most famous
first name in the entire series is not breaking 40% in a night match
against Mega Man after what Price did to X is delusional. I wouldn't call that person "delusional", really. I'm not sure if Cid is stronger than Aeris, and I'm not sure Aeris breaks 40% on Mega Man these days. --- Hello, Dexter Morgan |

I'm
wondering if this may just be a drop in popularity for SSBB centric
characters... SSBB isn't as big now as it was last contest, so
characters like Ike, Meta Knight, Falcon etc may see a drop off. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/24ytvz8.png Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

Not so hot that update Of course no use worrying about pre-ASV updates as that's where Ike really beasts. |

Good god what is wrong with you people This match means nothing to anyone, just like the Claptrap match before it. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

And
that's three solid updates for Prinny, going up in percentage each
time. This isn't just B8 anymore. Either Prinny's impressing or Ike is
embarrassing. Since we've seen Ike before and Prinny's new, I want to
give him the benefit of the doubt...but we've seen Laharl a lot too,
and we had much lower expectations for Prinny than this because of
that. The ASV should bring Prinny down, but he's still coming out of
this looking better than expected. One-on-ones are great. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

Hell, I've never even played Disgaea but I voted for Prinny just because it's so coot! Oh, and Yoshi's Island was totally not a failed guru nom.

Well,
we're not even sure how strong Ike really is. He was behind LFF last
year, and I'm not sure what to take from his performance in 2007. Again, I ask: Prinny vs. Claptrap --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |
KamikazePotato | Posted 1/25/2010 9:19:51 AM | message detail |
Well
okay, it means something to Krahen because his character turned out not
to be a bad choice. It doesn't mean anything for Ike or Zidane, I meant. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
vcharon | Posted 1/25/2010 9:19:57 AM | message detail |
Prinny
and Claptrap have joke appeal, based on their pictures alone. You
wouldn't know Sandal was really a joke unless you "got" the said joke.
That surely makes some bit a difference. --- :> |

Prinny would beat Claptrap pretty easily. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

One
thing I must say is that that picture of Prinny is brilliant... if I
knew nothing about either character (and I think a fair few voters
won't be familiar with Disgaea or FE), I'd pick him every time. --- Currently Playing: Final Fantasy Tactics, Ocarina of Time, Final Fantasy IX |

As
said earlier we can't expect every joke character to be a Sandal. Hell
Sandal's in the running for weakest character in contest history,
possibly below such titans as Tanner and Jade. And as I've said before, Prinny's a penguin. Who doesn't love penguins? |

Fact or Fiction - Prinny would have beaten these (4) seeds: (4) Captain John Price (4) Albert Wesker (4) Commander Shepard --- 4th place in Summer Contest 2k4 |

I
would have easily taken Claptrap before today happened. Now...I'd like
to wait until the end of the match before I answer that. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

....Ok, time to spin this so that Neku has a chance against Laharl. Prinny is getting by on joke votes thanks to its pic. I mean, you have generic guy with sword vs. A PENGUIN WITH HANDS ON ITS HIPS! ...yes, clearly. Neku > Laharl with 60%. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |

Prinny vs. Claptrap Prinny, but only because Ike > Zidane. I wouldn't try to figure Zidane-Ike through Prinny/Claptrap. You can't really have a clue as to how popular these guys are. --- Hello, Dexter Morgan |

Prinny is almost at 40% --- holy crap, you used an apostrophe to make a word plural at least 3 times in that post. that's like cryptonite to me if I was batman - Bako Ikporamee |

Ehhhh, fiction to Wesker, at least. The other two, no clue. Prinny could beat Shepard based on what he looked like last year, but with ME2, I dunno. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
