Augh, it's so close that I can no longer referesh and use % changes as a valid indicator of how the votes went. Now I have to do mental math!

Jesus, another update with over 500 votes total. Pretty damn late at this point to be pulling in 500 votes per update.

Question guys, not to start up this whole argument or anything, just one specific question. Hasn't Bowser been in every contest and never lost to a non-NNer?

Wasn't in 2002, IIRC. Can't recall all his losses off the top of my head.

Cloud, Mario, Sephiroth, Snake, Crono.

Those are all the 1v1 losses Bowser has.

Times when the Noble Nine underperforms against outside competition due to match pic:

-Link > Magus
-Solid Snake > Frog
-Solid Snake > Bowser
-Samus > Tifa

We have to have one every year like that. Then in '07 you can count Samus nearly losing to Mega Man and in '08...okay scratch that.

Yeah, in every 1v1 match he's been in he has lost to a NNer at the end.

Crono should totally have boned Lucca, instead she was all over robbo and poor Ayla, she deserved better.




Lucca X Ayla happened?

Bowser's never lost to a non-Noble in 1v1, but he's done it twice in fourways and he's gonna get humiliated this year. I'd be stunned if he was even a top 20 character.

He is weaker than Luigi nowadays however. That Ryu loss can be excused a bit due to being LFFd both times (by Mewtwo and Toad in R1 and by Shadow in R2).

This means that Vincent, Tifa, and Zelda are the only ones eligible for Terrific Ten at this point. And they hail from the same games as Clinkeroth!

That update was mostly Crono getting a really low update. The update before that was Missingno getting a really high update.

Biolizard28 | Posted 2/14/2010 6:24:06 PM | message detail
Also, should MN pull this off, I'm confident that he's going down at Sephiroth, if not Yoshi.

If you have to cheat to beat Crono, you're NOT touching Clinkeroth.

1. Absolutely nothing about this match so far points towards cheating for either character.
2. That early vote is going to *kill* Sephiroth. He rises to heaven from there, but he should be very worried about that.

Well, still anyone's game so far. I like Crono's last minute "rallying" power better than Missingno's, though, if then stays close.

I think it's just silly that after a few successive cuts, suddenly MissingNo. goes ape and starts gaining again.

And since it's happened more than once, I don't think it's a coincidence.

I'd be more worried if it were 4th round or later when Missingno goes against strong competition. 3rd might be too early and Sephy could beat the glitch?

And massive cut.
