Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 864

True, I always hated Yuffie more for that, but I believe she's gotten in other FF-games since then and at least she had something of a fanbase from FF7...I'm surprised Cait Sith has any real redeeming qualities. Besides, he stole from you too!

We should get Cait Sith in just to see if it is actually possible for an FFVII party member to be fodder.

I would nominate Cait Sith... one of my favorite FFVII characters. And Luigi doubling appears emminent.

Too bad there's probably nothing too jokey in OoT or FF7! Zolom bombed and I think Epona would actually be more legit than joke.

Happy Mask Salesman. He's got a much bigger role in Majora's Mask than in Ocarina of Time, but he's still in the latter...and he's probably the best candidate I can think of for a joke entrant from Zelda.

Personally, I think this would be hilarious. I'd be much more likely to get behind a joke character than, well, whatever Missingno. and L-Block are. (Although right now, I'd take just about anything over Missingno.)

The best joke-character from LoZ has already made two contests: Tingle.

Epona would be fairly legit...joke'ish, sure, but she's a regular in the series and people legitimately like her. Epona's also useful and seen a lot, so -- with Sheik becoming ineligible and having seen Midna several times now -- Epona's the next character we should go for from the series.

Nice to see Luigi looking decent, can't say I'm surprised though.

Right now Sandal gets 15.53% on Luigi, can't wait to see him after Link SFF Luigi. A tripling will reduce Sandal to 7.77% on Link.

Portal 2?! Yes, and that picture is scary-awesome.

What's up with the underlined letters in the press release though? It looked like the first paragraph tried to poorly spell out something about the Rat Man, but I don't know for sure if that's right and the second paragraph's was just weird.

I assume it's the start of an alternative reality game tie-in, like I Love Bees.

This has been an amazing day, video game wise. PORTAL ****ING 2!!!

Jesus Christ Valve, if you release Portal 2 and HL2: Episode 3, you will ascend to a tier higher than God-like. A tier that is so ****ing amazing that to name it would be a great injustice.

But I think casuals will recognise match pics with the logos and some game pics well enough in a match pic.

If company-matches get pictures, Valve would do pretty well I imagine. The PC-fanbase loves the company and they've made some pretty great games in recent years to go along with their additional focus to consoles. I wouldn't say powerhouse, but they'd be a top ten company Nintendo/Square/Capcom/Konami would be so far ahead of everything else.

Quick: Valve VS Sega, who you got?

I hope Luigi doesn't resist SFF next round, which is far more likely given Link's anti-votes. I want Alucard to trounce everyone from the bottom half.

Epona wouldn't be a joke- most people, or at least the Zelda fanbase, consider her a real character.

The name matters a lot for potential jokes- "Random Piece of FFVII Furniture" would be way stronger than any piece of FFVII furniture that had a name.
