GameFAQs Contests

Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 882

It's like KP says. Link doesn't just have fans. He has androids that lack the cognitive ability to vote for anything but him. None of them have minds of their own.

"Why did you come with me?" "Only because I wanted to go with you."

Sure. Sephiroth got 64% on Sonic last year, without any SFF. This performance really isn't that good relative to Link standards, it's just that he's shown us 4 lackluster to bad matches to start the contest.

2010 Extrapolated Standings: Crono gets 46.85% on Sephiroth.
All you need now is KH3 or SSB4, Crono. Then your quest shall be fulfilled!

Luigi rSFFed Link! Green characters cause inverse SFF!

Much like the Red Deboost!

I just realized that L-Block probably only could have won in 4-ways. Anyone who didn't vote for the block probably wouldn't have anyway. Meaning in a 1v1 2007 championship, Link doubles it.

Isn't this what we were all saying about Crono?

I know it's what I was saying...

GFAQs Member 1: Curse those FF7 swine!
GFAQs Member 2: I concur!
GFAQs Member 3: Charlatans! They have dominated our sacred halls for the last time!
GFAQs Member 2: What ho, Link is in the poll against Sonic!
GFAQs Member 1: Glorious day! Let's all vote for Link!
GFAQs Member 2: Hurrah!
GFAQs Member 3: Almost 70%! A fine result! Now, let's get back to plotting the demise of those FF7 characters that turn these contests into boring shutouts!

And Sephiroth/Tifa probably wasn't SFF. Otherwise we would have had much lower votals. Maybe TJF is just that big of a vote draw.

Like they completely block out whoever is on the other side of the poll. It might as well be a big ass question mark, because all that matters is that LINK is here, and he MUST get my vote.

You know, I don't even mind Link winning like this when it's so entertaining to watch.


Agreed. Marveling at the strength of guys like Link and Cloud was always cool.

Link's 82% on Yoshi was much more fun than his 71% on Luigi.

And I'm 90% sure this is an outlier result. It makes Sonic's entire division look like crap if it isn't, and we have plenty of people in that division who have absolutely no reason to fall off. I love Red, but he is not getting close to Vivi.

Anyway, since Link looks great again, Samus > Cloud is looking much less likely, not that it ever had much of a chance in the first place!

I'm just going to count this as Link SFFing Sonic worse than Luigi. I'm just going to assume at this point Sonic's entire fanbase are basically Nintendo fans who will back him against random people like Kirby but will abandon him like a bat out of hell against a real Nintendo star.

This also means that Mario would absolutely curbstomp Sonic.

Link is getting rocked in Asia and doing poor in Europe. Remember Sonic rocked Ganondorf overnight. I see no reason why Sonic can't make Link bleed later tonight. It is dubious that Link break 70%

Yeah, I'm thinking 60-40 sounds about right.

It's hard to swallow Sonic getting SFF'd harder than Luigi, who is a real Nintendo character. I expected 70% before the contest here. Although given Europe lies before us, Link is probably going to end up a bit short of it.

Like honestly it makes me angry at the fact that people whine about the FFVII characters and no one seems to care that there's a consistent unconquerable mass of mindless Link fans that make him this ridiculous year after year.

And I have him winning it.

Sonic vs. Mario would end up really close based solely on the old rivalry.

Also, nobody really answered me. Why all the hate for FF when it's just fine for nintendo stars like Mario, Link, Samus and Mega Man to run rampant at all times? But if a great FF characters wins a match it's like the world is going to end.

Oh Geez. I think we're seeing the end of anti-votes. Let's see what Samus can do to Cloud now. Snake/Sephiroth I think is still debatable.
And Link may get 70% here even with the night vote coming. Let's see how much Sonic can salvage with his famed morning vote. But against Link, fame means nothing.

Link needs to get 71.72% to impress me. I would take Ridley > Sonic
HaRRicH | Posted 3/16/2010 9:23:01 PM | message detail
If I would have known Link was gonna kill Sonic like this, I would have pity-voted here. Yeesh.

Let's say Sonic gets 30% at the end. What does Charizard need to get on Mario to GUARANTEE in your mind it beats Sonic?

It's hard to swallow Sonic getting SFF'd harder than Luigi, who is a real Nintendo character.

Luigi probably has more actual fans. Sonic at this point seems like a much stronger version of Pac-Man who just gets nostalgia votes but against someone like Link and Mario he's doomed.

If this happens, the best part will be that that's exactly what Crono/Alucard, Alucard/Magus, and Sonic/Magus would predict! Along with Crono breaking 60% on Sonic of course.

I seriously can't understand this. GameFAQs JUST got done making Sephiroth look like ass, so it's not like they've decided to stop anti-voting. Zelda looked weaker. Ganondorf looked weaker. Even Midna looked a little weaker.

damn Link

If Seph stands up to Cloud, Crono will likely do more than score 60% on Sonic!

Vindication for the Red folks, if you're willing to ignore Bacondorf (and probably even if you aren't).
