GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1035
Hmm...couples contest? I'd rally for Diddy and Dixie to get in. Sure, they'd do horribly, but they are the representation of the greatest game ever made, Donkey Kong Country 2, and there's worse fodder out there. --- "Go get me Jared...from Subway!" -- CM Punk This line reserved for Rivalry Guru winner. |
So who would we put Mega Man with? If not Splash Woman, the potential choices get random or awkward reeeeeal fast. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Guybrush/Elaine would get a rather high seed in that contest as well. Not that they would have a chance of getting to round 2, but their seed would still be pretty good. --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. Black Turtle > Me |
Mega
Man, Sonic and Samus would be complete fodder in the contest if they
even got in. Squall would take it to them, maybe even Tidus. --- :> |

I think Nathan Drake would probably actually win a match in a couples contest. |

A
couples tournament might at least be funny if characters are allowed to
appear in multiple entries. Sora/Kairi vs. Sora/Riku gogogogo --- Fight like dragons, have no fear, swords are made of STEEEEEEEEL~ |
Janus5000 posted... Sora/Kairi vs. Sora/Riku gogogogo I think more than yaoi fangirls would vote Sora/Riku honestly. It is a more compelling relationship even from a romantic perspective. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png |

Obviously
we'd need to get Nidoran M/Nidoran F in. Maybe Plusle/Minun since they
look like Pikachu and would actually kinda work as a legit couple. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy IV (FF2US) http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3445328 |
Have
to reach to get MM into this contest, all the way to MM Legends!
Debatable I guess, but I think that's probably his best pairing that's
half way legitimate in nature. --- :> |
Obvious couple would be Mega Man/Mega Buster. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy IV (FF2US) http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3445328 |
At last it's revealed why he really upgrades it. --- :> |
Squall's still got a pretty good lead, and only 3 hours to go. Looks like Sora's done. Good show, Squall. --- 2002 Link, 2003 Cloud, 2004 Link, 2005 Link, 2006 Link, 2008 Link, 2010 Link, 2011 Cloud. Link 6, Cloud 2 |

Those last 3 cuts put them on pace for a comeback. >_> --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 77/92 Today: Sora/Riku |
If they keep up the pace of the last three updates, they can still pull even. That's a pretty big if, though. --- Fight like dragons, have no fear, swords are made of STEEEEEEEEL~ |
Sora's now cutting around 25 votes an update. This is one hell of a desperate last-ditch effort by Sora. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy IV (FF2US) http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3445328 |
Sora/Riku still trying. Impressive but I doubt they can pull it off. EDIT: on second though..now that Europe is zzzzz maybe the actually can? that would be pretty awesome despite losing my perfect battle bracket (I will lose on the tie breaker at the end anyway Link/Mario is not getting 85k -_- ) --- ... |
And so much for that. Can't even mount a comeback without choking on his own suck. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy IV (FF2US) http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3445328 |
The best couple is the one that would make it in from this contest: Raynor/Kerrigan --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? |
Sora/Riku have provided us with the two closest matches of the entire contest. On that ground, I say that they should auto-win this contest. --- The Gamer In Me His dark secret is he's really Spark Brushel in disguise. If people knew, he'd be ruined. - Spiral on the black psyche locks |
The best part about a couples contest is that we'd get the couples version of "They're not rivals." "Cloud and Tifa aren't a couple! Cloud/Aerith forever!" --- "Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!" "Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!" |
Also, I really like the last match pic. Simple yet effective. --- http://i43.tinypic.com/dgwh0.gif http://www.majhost.com/gallery/atukam/OHWD/snownd.gif |

From: LeonhartFour | #1407 What about those players who went with Yuffie. Both Tifa and Aeris got reee-jected by them. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Technically, we could nominate Cloud/Barret, right? --- http://i52.tinypic.com/2zfiu09.gif http://i54.tinypic.com/10729w2.gif |

Match LVII: (1) Mario/Bowser vs. (1) Mega Man X/Zero Previous Round Mario/Bowser – 70.58% Sonic the Hedgehog/Dr. Robotnik – 29.42% Mega Man X/Zero – 52.70% Sub-Zero/Scorpion – 47.30% Analysis We’re heading into the final week of the contest and while there are some matches people are talking about this is not one of them. After watching Mario and Bowser destroy Sonic and Dr. Robotnik I don’t think anyone is giving this pseudo-Nintendo pair a chance. Then again I don’t think anyone was in the first place. We’ve seen what Mario can do to regular Mega Man in the previous contest and we all saw what Link did to him this contest, but I think people are going a little overboard on the blowout. While I do feel that Mega Man X is noticeably weaker than Mega Man this rivalry is a lot better than what Mega Man and Sonic had plus Zero has some strength as well. Only reason Sub-Zero and Scorpion did so well was because they too have an incredible rivalry. Mario and Bowser should still pick up some SFF and should be able to break 60%, but I don’t see it being the doubling that a lot of people are predicting. The rivalry between the two is just too good and not to say Mario and Bowser are weak in the rivalry department, but a performance like some people are predicting would make me feel that they may have a chance at winning the contest even with the possibility of SFF being there. charmander6000’s Bracket: Mario/Bowser > Mega Man X/Zero charmander6000’s Prediction: Mario/Bowser wins, 62.64% - 37.36% --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 77/92 Today: Sora/Riku |
From: vcharon | #292 Well, unless Bacon puts in some sort of rule that the couple has to be canon, it would technically be fair game! --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |
I'm
sure it would be fine, much like this contest the pair with the most
votes goes in. I'm pretty sure Cloud/Tifa win that easy, Aeris can get
in with Zack. --- :> |
Canon
couples only would be best if the contests ever resorted to something
like a couples contest. If they don't go canon they'll just get a bunch
of dumb shipping nominations. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
swordz9 posted... Canon couples only would be best if the contests ever resorted to something like a couples contest. If they don't go canon they'll just get a bunch of dumb shipping nominations. It needs to be "canon" or at least an option in the game itself, which FFVII allows you to do (primitively compared to games today, but still). --- :> |
I'd
prefer canon as in "There is no doubt these two are a romantic couple
during the game or by the time it ends." Admittedly I say this mostly in
the hopes it would make a lot of top tier characters in strength unable
to enter the contest in an effort to make it hopefully more
interesting. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
It's very unlikely that the really out there fan pairings would get enough noms to get in anyway. --- http://www.miscupload.com/upload/452457071929141623517416.gif |
