That doesn't sound too crazy. Plus, she'll get that "I've only been played RE since 4" voters like myself, now that we know she's a sexy badass ^_^


Hmm... yes. I can see the RE4/5 exclusive players researching Jill and having their eyes opened.

ooh man and i remember what a high it was thinking I was going to get through the division perfectly after Frog pulled off the comeback on Axel and then Midna went and tanked against Scorpion.

ugh

Kefka/Vercetti has always been my favorite stats topic day. I remember taking a few hours in the middle of the day to pick and assemble a dresser with my dad, and I had missed like 1000+ posts.


...this exact experience happened to me GET OUT OF MY HEAD

In fact, I'm still trying to wrap my head around how in the world Persona 4 got so close to SF4. Anyone who seriously tried to argue that before the match would've either not been taken seriously or gotten laughed off the board.

If Bacon has a heart he will allow it. Then I'll make pics for every other holiday! On President's Day I'll add Abe Lincoln hats and powdered wigs or something.

I remember the board rallied pretty hard for a McCain/Obama poll on election day, and Bacon denied that. These pictures seem like much easier requests, but I'm still not getting my hopes up.

I also remember thinking about Kefka/Vercetti the entire time. That's got to be one of my favorite matches of all time. Following the excruciatingly slow comeback all day, going to bed thinking Vercetti was done, and then waking up to Vercetti having won and the board in chaos over Romero.

YES, Vault Boy is impressing! I had a good feeling this would happen. :D

I really do think this is legit. The character has a lot of appeal.

Considering Missingno. had the most impressive write-in poll performance by a landslide... yes, he does have a chance. A small chance, of course, but still a chance.

It's a day match, so I'd say a 3% chance. He's got my vote for sure.

Missingno will definitely have to rely on over 50% of the voters having encountered it, because I can guarantee no one else will be voting for whatever it is.

Virtually everyone who ever owned a copy of Pokemon Red/Blue tried the Missingno. trick. And since Pokemon has such a huge fanbase here nowadays... who knows what'll happen?

I don't honestly expect Crono to lose, but I think Missingno has the potential to impress. Crono is terrible during the day, and Missingno was by far the best vote-in performance. Nearly every vote-in has done very well.

Anyone who hasn't seen that in the game will have absolutely no idea that it's a joke at all. This isn't like L-Block, or even Weighted Companion Cube which at least has a funny design.

I disagree with this - I think Missingno. is quite obviously a joke, and a funny one at that.

I think Missingno. will absolutely avoid the doubling if nothing else, and I can see him making a run for 40%.

You can tell what Missingno is to find it funny? I'd expect a blank option to get more votes from non-Pokemon fans.

The only thing I've seen mentioned is that it's a glitch of some kind. This contest is the first it's come up in the 10 years or so of video game discussions I've followed on the net.

Missingno. is not very easy to get really. Not just anyone that has played Pokemon would have gotten it.

The picture will help, so I disagree with that. It's a geometric blob of pixels that is a backwards L.

I really can't believe Crono has a chance of losing this, but it could definitely get as close as 52 or 53% for him. But I think MissingNo is the best joke character besides maybe L-Block. Who hasn't played Pokemon Red/Blue and tried that glitch code? I'm torn at who I am going to vote for, having Pokemon as a huge part of my childhood, and loving Chrono Trigger (one of my top 5 games).

I disagree. I know about Missingno. because my ex loved Pokemon and showed it to me. Before then I didn't know, because I just wasn't a huge fan. I played it some but not intently and never delved into the "gotta catch em all" phase.
