I knew you'd see SOMETHING we all didn't. Hell, who here won a contest? Anyone besides Ulti? No? Yeah, thought so.

Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 2: Yoshi

Yay! Random variation going to make people think this match is suspicious.
Yoshi is going to be in big trouble if he can't bring up his vote intake before the ASV.

I still am having the hardest time in the world seeing Bowser contend with Sora in that match. Seeing is believing, I guess (and he does have the night to knock the kid around), but Bowser has been probably the most disappointing contest entrant we've had post-2k5.

Not really, I just think getting Nintendo fans to rally against Yoshi is almost impossible. Yoshi didn't win two Mario character polls by accident.

Also I'd like to point out there's no huge off-site rally like there was last time. LL can't vote against its mascot, can it?

Percentage in this match says little about Crono.

Now, if Yoshi or Missingno manages to win with both competitors getting significantly more votes than Crono did in Crono-Missingno, then we should be worried about him. But there's no reason that we should consider Missingno's strength to be a well-defined number (and previously seen joke runs confirm this); Missingno's strength is Missingno.

I already brought this up. LL was probably THE biggest rally point for Missingno against Crono. I dare someone to try that on LL against Yoshi. Yoshi would probably shoot up to 55%.

Somebody named Weavile made a topic on LL rallying for Missingno. It got two posts and died. Nobody wants to anti-vote Yoshi there.

I still think that Missingno would do well against Sephy now, if only because we've learned the glitch's power runs on hate and tears.

You know Sonic_Factor, if we take you at your word then you're the reason Crono lost in the first place. Your blind Crono hate is starting to get annoying.
HaRRicH | Posted 3/3/2010 10:32:08 AM | message detail
I'll admit I over-estimated Missingno here, but I also said this would be the Starcraft/KH of Missingno's run so I knew it wouldn't be as strong this round and have the kind of rallying it had last round.

Yoshi's definitely impressing, though I don't think this means Yoshi's nipping on Crono's heels. I'll give him some credit, but there's no way I don't take Crono in that match-up even if Yoshi makes it closer. Not yet, anyway.

I'd take Yoshi > Crono. Crono seems to get weaker every year... if they're arguably 50/50 this year, I like his chances even better from every contest here on out.

I honestly can't believe Crono has any legit strength anymore. What makes people think a washed up RPG character that hasn't seen any action in years would remain at Noble Nine strength? It's ridiculous. Magus lost to Knuckles! HE LOST TO SANDBAG!

I'd rather think it was a glitch. Makes things more entertaining. For Missingno, at least.

Oh yeah, totally vindicated whether Yoshi wins or not. He's done better than Crono so far in every way except vote totals. Good job calling this.

There's a Canada/US hockey game?

Looking at the map it seems that Missingno will favour the initial ASV while the west seems to support Yoshi plus with Europe going to bed...
