Cloud and Seph to gain 10 percent is far more likely.
#153 | Kotetsu534 | Posted 11/14/2011 9:14:11 PM | message detail
Oh yeah, they probably rise like 10% from here to the end of the poll.

Haha they didn't even get over 70% yet.


They did.

They just went back under.

Huh I was refreshing constantly and never saw it hit 70% so it must have lasted less than a few seconds.

Not so good overall bracket support for Frog/Magus. The perfects once again do way better than everyone else and even the -1s do a fair bit better than the rest of the field.

7 people fell off the Top 50. Former second place FunEntry, nubianlord, soma2035, HeeroKilla324, jiiwii, itzzsemaj and The_Deadman335 did not have Frog vs. Magus winning the match.

Dude, Sephiroth as a competent villain is less believable than Denise Richards as a nuclear physicist.

What's going on guys?
#162 | TheCodeisBosco | Posted 11/14/2011 9:16:15 PM | message detail
Yeah, I still think Cloud and Seph will at least hit 80% by the time everything's said and done. If they don't, maybe that's a sign that this division will end with a fireworks show.

...okay, so that MGS upset really isn't happening, but a man can dream!

The first of many warning salvos for the FFVII duo.
#164 | Janus5000 | Posted 11/14/2011 9:16:40 PM | message detail
This'll go way up. They'll probably hit 75%.

...Man, I wasn't surprised by this result at all until I looked up how Lloyd and Kratos did in the last contest. Who the ass loses to Sackboy?

Cloud rose 8-9% from the freeze against Ridley last year, so it's not out of the realm of possibility.

Oh god, PHP errors on that page. Well, that could be fixed by changing the vote totals for the 00:07:15 update to be changed to 2 votes for Cloud/Sephiroth and 1 vote for Lloyd/Kratos, since I had the 3rd vote (1st for Lloyd/Kratos).

I can not think of a more pathetic villain than Sephiroth. He's like the Dr Pizza of villains.

This is a warning salvo to Link, Gamefaqs will no longer stand for that which always wins. And FF7 always wins! ALWAYS!

What is that? The 12th salvo?

Why why oh why did I get scared into a high Oracle. Last year proved FFVII would do damn well to triple anything with a quasi-Nintendo fanbase.

I know nobody will agree with me there, but this is gonna end up as a fine performance. FFVII can not get Link-level blowouts because of anti-votes, and Tales has some hardcore fans. This is also gonne go up like crazy before the match ends.

This is just trying to make Seph/Cloud seem like an underdog. They have to throw a match to make it seem like an upset when they eventually win.

Those devious bastards.

Too bad BADTASTEFAQS will vote for them over Link, who shows as much emotion as Keanu Reeves, making him STILL a far better character than Seph/Cloud.

I personally think it's because Cloud/CATS is a 'legendary' match while Link/CATS is not.

There is absolutely no reason this shouldn't be mid 80s... even if he jumps a bit from here, its a very poor performance
