From: LeonhartFour | #440 Pfff. I've got like four different high profile bets going on with Seph/Snake. Account bet with XiC. 100 dollars with 'kash. beer and wayne rooney england jersey with Realo. I'm laying it all out there for Sephiroth. --- "I learned in England not to deceive the referees" - Cristiano Ronaldo http://i50.tinypic.com/ohsr5j.jpg |

I
have Laharl winning, but his match picture isn't nearly as good as
Neku's; that could make a big difference. I'd be feeling a lot more
nervous about Laharl if it wasn't for Prinny's decent performance. Speaking of match pictures, that Kefka one seriously cracks me up. As someone who has Arthas > Kefka in his bracket, I have to ask: how could anyone vote against him?!? --- VOTE FOR MISSINGNO.! Characters who messed up my bracket: Shadow, Drake, Fawful, Liquid |

Thing
is, Bacon doesn't really look at our stats. He goes "well, this is a
cool novelty idea" and slaps a few strong characters from the same
company together. But he has to be aware that people hate SFF matches, right? He can't be so dense. He's got to talk to some people around here. Pikachu > Kratos is probably bad news for Charizard, honestly. I don't see two Pokemon being that strong. This logic doesn't make sense to me. Pikachu being stronger would definitely imply good things for Charizard, rather than bad. Pokemon Correlation Factor :) --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

Squall/Auron
doesn't even excite me, like at all. It's an SFF match between 2 Square
characters, one of which is a big favorite with 80% of the Guru
brackets. It's a match in which the upset happening would not surprise
many people, despite Squall being such a heavy favorite. There's no
major arguments involving competing theories of the contest, and
nothing at stake really. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

From: LeonhartFour | #471 He is helped by the fact that Bowser and Frog are both likable characters as opposed to Auron and... well... Squall. <3 --- "I learned in England not to deceive the referees" - Cristiano Ronaldo http://i50.tinypic.com/ohsr5j.jpg |

From: ExThaNemesis | #470 Kirby/Ramza was the first match ever on GameFAQs that I didn't know who to vote for, and probably the hardest vote ever. I seriously didn't know who to vote for until the match came and I voted. Voted Kirby. --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |

Bowser/Frog
will be interesting to me even as a 60-40 match. Squall/Auron would
have to actually be close (as in the result is in doubt for at least an
hour) to be more interesting to me than Bowser/Frog as a 60-40 match.
Replace Auron with Ganondorf and my interest in that match grows
dramatically, even if his chances of winning are lower. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

So if Laharl breaks 60% on Neku, how bad does he make Sora look in Round 2 where it'll be a night match? --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

Sora
seems to be recovering from that mediocre board vote. Considering I
have him defeating Bowser, I'm pretty happy about that. --- VOTE FOR MISSINGNO.! Characters who messed up my bracket: Shadow, Drake, Fawful, Liquid |

And
yes, Bowser and Frog are both awesome characters! Bowser's my #2
favorite Nintendo character, and if not for contests, I'd probably like
him even more than Frog. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

From: LeonhartFour | #473 Kirby/Ramza had one of the BEST fanfictions written for them in .Vs mode too. Seijun wrote it I think. It involved Sora stealing Ninja powers from Ramza and what-not.

Sora got 24% on Tingle. That was a full 24 hours. Laharl managed 26% on Yoshi back when Yoshi didn't suck. All I'm saying is that Laharl could break 30% on Sora if there's been some wonky Disgaea boost like Prinny kind of suggests, and people would flip out! It would be awesome! --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
