I am willing to consider a Mario boost for everyone except Mario, for obvious reasons. --- http://i46.tinypic.com/v4o0mx.jpg best sig bet EVER |

Yeah
man, I don't know where this Mario boost is coming from when it's just
so much easier to put it up to a KH decline(aw yeah heavy > roxas
wasn't so terrible). --- "I beat him, and he says lightyears measure distance, not time. ..Dammit, Brock is on another planet." - SEP |

So
Sora's doing just well enough to make you wonder how a 24 hour match
would go but not well enough to make a scratch during a night match.
Way to do the worst possible thing, psh --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

I
have an idea. There was a Mario character Reboost this year. Now you
ask, why did Amaterasu do so well on Luigi if that is the case? The
answer is simple: for the same reason that Alucard, Ryu, and Captain
Falcon did so well- underrated Crono! Take this as seriously as you
want. Mario boost is possible I guess. Super Mario Galaxy 2 is on the Wii's top 10. Alucard and Captain Falcon have no reason to boost, but Ryu has 2 reasons to boost, including an recently released game boost, which is the strongest type but also potentially temporary. How underrated are we talking? I think Crono is still among the nine strongest non-joke characters. --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

lol Ryu H. Loving this upset. Loving the return of Mario domination. I'll be surprised if Charizard doesn't break 60%. Of course, I don't think breaking 60% would make him close to being the favorite against Bowser. A doubling would get me on the Charizard > Bowser wagon, though. --- Not Wylvane |

The Mario characters looked amazing in 2007 so I wouldn't think 4-ways hurt them. Sora's still cutting percentage pretty fast.....he could make a run at 47% before we're done here. That would be close enough to consider him winning a 24-hour match. --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 3: Sephiroth!!!

The Mario characters looked amazing in 2007 so I wouldn't think 4-ways hurt them. Bowser? Peach? Wario?

Peach
and Wario got SFF'd to oblivion by Fox. Not their fault people thought
Fox wouldn't infinite shine combo them to death. As for Bowser, he and
Ryu were statistical equals in 2006. In retrospect, it really wasn't
such a bad thing for Bowser to lose to him, especially with Shadow in
the match. --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 3: Sephiroth!!! Link's quest to save us from the oppression of the jokes- Round 4: Luigi |

Oh.
Well it's all the same to me, that section of the bracket was Fox's to
own, and he did. Peach > Fox was just a horrible pick, and
Meta-Knight > Peach isn't that surprising either or bad for Peach. --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 3: Sephiroth!!! Link's quest to save us from the oppression of the jokes- Round 4: Luigi |

This
does add a bit of fuel to the Auron > Squall. Auron 60 - 40d Bowser
in 07. Maybe there is Sonic Team - Nintendo overlap, because that is
just weird to me. --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

Meta-Knight > Peach isn't that surprising either or bad for Peach. Post-Brawl, maybe. But nobody cares about Peach anyway, so I guess it's not surprising she doesn't have enough fans to vote her past three characters at once. --- "But you have been given freedom.

Yeah,
I don't really know what to think about Squall after this. This makes
him look better through Kefka and Terra, but on the other hand, he's
had 4 matches against Sora in 2007-2008, 3 of which show him in the
52-53% range and 1 of which shows him in the 60% range. --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 3: Sephiroth!!! Link's quest to save us from the oppression of the jokes- Round 4: Luigi |

Peach actually does better against Tifa now through Gordon. I still have no idea how she gets votes. --- http://i46.tinypic.com/v4o0mx.jpg best sig bet EVER |

he's had 4 matches against Sora in 2007-2008, 3 of which show him in
the 52-53% range and 1 of which shows him in the 60% range. 2 of the 3 close matches are understandable because Squall was in the same poll with Aerith and Cloud. Don't ask me what happened in Squall/Sora/Yoshi/Fox. As a Squall fanboy, I will pull a red sox and use the 60% performance as the legitimate one! --- "But you have been given freedom.

From: KamikazePotato | #425 Eh, Peach might be a little overrated.

Because she's an awesome character in what may be one of the five strongest games here? Peach is a female character who doesn't blow things up, HOW DOES GAMEFAQS VOTE FOR HER. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/ml36gl_th.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Fun
fact: Peach was originally meant to be in NSMB Wii, but it would have
taken extra effort to animate her dress physics. So they just put in a
fourth Toad. I am being dead serious. --- http://i46.tinypic.com/v4o0mx.jpg best sig bet EVER |

Sora's
still cutting percentage pretty fast.....he could make a run at 47%
before we're done here. That would be close enough to consider him
winning a 24-hour match. Sora wouldn't win a 24 hour match. By the time the ASV starts, Bowser's lead would be too high for Sora to take down. He might win a day match though. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |
