Oh and just noticed Squall is in Mario's division. Not as good as Sonic/MM/Crono, but better than Link/FF7/Snake, so I'll take it. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Yeah FE:A could be the Tales of for this contest. Apart from the usual Tales of... --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Congrats to SuperNiceDog for winning the guru contest. |
KanzarisKelshen posted... HaRRicH posted...I like Crono/Sora as a match. Squall/Vincent/Tifa have found themselves as board-favorites over Crono now, and none of them are THAT much stronger than Sora. There are at least two worse opponents for Sora: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3297 Fun set of 3-seeds...it's kind of surprising that they're all newcomers, but then even moreso that none of them are our most rallied characters either. No NRT-winners, no Epona, no Hero...just fascinating. Crono/Sonic/Mega Man still have plenty of time to be challenged, too. Vincent/Tifa/Charizard/Missingno were never likely to receive high seeds, and one of the best lessons we've learned is seeding =/= strength. --- http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg Nominate SuperNiceDog's Guru-choice, then Epona. |
Tidus vs. Shulk --- GT: TriggerTRE / PSN: SolidTRE Life is short. Smile while you still have teeth! |

It's hilarious how bad Mewtwo looks there and how strong Squall looks. --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
If Ballin is doing any kind of newbie theme I will be very disappointed. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima SuperNiceDog: Bracket: Good, Taste: Bad |
http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/cb9_battlers All of the characters so far have better pictures than the original pictures. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
So,
if every multiple-of-3 seed is a newbie, that means 81 newbies and 162
veterans. (not that I would ASSUME that, but it's possible) How many characters have we had since the birth of character contests? --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those! It could be fun! So... what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
Is that counting RR or no? --- Will not remove this line of my signature until the Seahawks, Jazz or Rockies win a title (Started 5-16-09) SuperNiceDog: Guru winner |
By my count 316 different characters --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Congrats to SuperNiceDog for winning the guru contest. |
Haste_2 posted... So, if every multiple-of-3 seed is a newbie, that means 81 newbies and 162 veterans. (not that I would ASSUME that, but it's possible) ~250 or so I would guess. 2007 was 128 for a starting point, then a quarter of 2008 was newbies so that brings things up to 160. There were probably 20 or so characters that were only in 2002, plus 10-15 from 2003-2006 plus 20 some from Villains, 20 some from the Female Bracket and ~15-20 from the last contest. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
Okay, so if, say, 1/3 of the bracket is newcomers, only about half of the vets are going to make it. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those! It could be fun! So... what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
does
anyone think Ghaleon from Lunar coulda made it? I don't know if much
rallying happened here or anywhere else, but I know of 5 people who
nominated him Also lol 3 seeds. |
So...when are we getting the next seeds, Mr. Allen? --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima SuperNiceDog: Bracket: Good, Taste: Bad |
I coulda sworn Marston was in one of the 4 ways... --- Warning_Crazy Winner of Board 8 Big Brother! "better than ngamer"- nick |
From: Metal_DK | #413 does anyone think Ghaleon from Lunar coulda made it? I don't know if much rallying happened here or anywhere else, but I know of 5 people who nominated him We really don't need to see Immodium Ghaleon in a contest ever again. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima SuperNiceDog: Bracket: Good, Taste: Bad |
Red Dead Redemeption was released either during or after the first 12 hour contest (2010) --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
It was after, essentially all new characters from 2010 and after (except Lightning) will be new. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Congrats to SuperNiceDog for winning the guru contest. |
Hahaha, holy s***. Dragonborn will do well. Don't forget that freaking Vault Boy did well, and Skyrim's even bigger here than Fallout 3. I think he'll give Ezio a good fight unless he gets stuck with one of the near-elites. Also, surprised as hell that John Marston of all people is a 3 seed. The rest make sense since they're mostly from recent games, but don't know why RDR of all things has so much support on this site. Makes me interested to see just how he does. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy V - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3529748 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
That
said, it's pretty nice to have so much new blood. Just a shame that
most will be in a crappy enough spot that they won't really get a chance
to impress. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy V - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3529748 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
Four seeds up! Garrus, Red, and Drake make me happy, and Kirby should totally have "HIIIIIIIIIIII!" as a quote. |
Warning! Hostile 4 seeds inbound! Yuri Lowell in Link's division Garrus Vakarian in Sonic's division Kirby in Sephiroth's division Lara Croft in Snake's division Leon Kennedy in Cloud's division Nathan Drake in Crono's division Master Chief in Samus's division Pokemon Trainer Red in Mario's division Lightning in Mega Man's division --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |

Garrus is too slow with his calibrations to beat Sonic --- Will not remove this line of my signature until the Seahawks, Jazz or Rockies win a title (Started 5-16-09) SuperNiceDog: Guru winner |
Disappointed that Kirby isnt going to be our multiway star again, being stuck in Luigi's division --- Dr voltchball - best in the world. |
Resident Evil Gaiden Leon vs. DmC Donte who wins --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
I'm
wondering if this will be the last seed group we'll see today. I have a
feeling that Allen will post another "tune in tomorrow" message in his
sticky when he's done, but I guess we can't be sure. --- Will not remove this line of my signature until the Seahawks, Jazz or Rockies win a title (Started 5-16-09) SuperNiceDog: Guru winner |
LOLContests posted... It's also possible that that there's one new character in each match ala 2008, and that it goes by seeds. Like all of the 3/6/9/12/15/18/21/24/27 seeds are newbies. Ah, good catch. That explains why guys I expected to see in the middle of the pack like Lee and John managed to "beat out" newbies who we know had major rallies like Epona and Barrett. I'm officially buying stock in the new character + new series theory. ...making a whole 1/3 of the bracket new characters though? Yikes! Seeing that much fresh blood would be cool, I just hope he doesn't restrict them all to the same divisions- what's fun is seeing a newbie surprise us by proving themselves against legit competition, like Charizard showed us. Wouldn't be nearly as much fun to watch Dragonborn crush his way to R3 but against absolute newbie fodder. --- thengamer.com/guru thengamer.com/xstats board8.wikia.com For your consideration: Lee Everett - The Walking Dead |
The 4 seeds presented here should break the newbie theories that have been going around. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima SuperNiceDog: Bracket: Good, Taste: Bad |
I like how the 4 seeds are strong than the 3 seeds --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
this
bracket is officially stupid. I didn't give it much thought at all, but
now that the 3 seeds are out it's just blatantly obvious that the first
(and probably 2nd) round will be full of completely terrible matches. --- Hot Crossed Dog Butts Burns then confronted him about the fart and Willie became agitated, telling her to shut up |
Oh
yes Lightning and Yuri Lowell. Yu being a 3 seed is awesome too.
Lightning probably the only one with a shot at winning, but we'll see. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
wow 4 seeds too? Funny that most of these would destroy the 3 seeds --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Dragonborn vs. Master Chief Hahahahaha --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
I'm surprised lightning beat out the FFVII characters an Auron --- For your SuperNiceDog. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
Why
is Leon in Dante's division again? I don't think the result's going to
be different from the last three character battles. (OK, Ryu stopped
them from meeting each other in 2010, but that doesn't help much.) --- Congrats to 2011 Guru champ SuperNiceDog! |
AxemRedRanger posted... Resident Evil Gaiden Leon vs. DmC Donte who wins So the third round this year is the division finals. I wonder if it will still be a sprite round, and if that affects snake at all. --- Newershadow mobile posting. |
And Red beat out every actual Pokemon These are weird nominations --- For your SuperNiceDog. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
I can't help but laugh at the fact that Master Chief is only a 4 seed despite Halo 4 coming out, b8 nom domination or not. |
Aside from the female contest, non-Cloud/Sephiroth FFVII characters have always been relatively poorly seeded. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Dragonborn vs Master Chief, huh? I'm tempted by the upset here, though that third spot will affect things as well. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy V - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3529748 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |

Dragonborn vs Master Chief is delicious. --- xyzzy |
I'm going to end up taking Dragonborn over Master Chief and I know it. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |

I'm
worried DB/MC will suffer some LFF and let the third party through if
they aren't completely terrible. I mean, it won't be a whole lot, but I
definitely think there will be a little. --- Will not remove this line of my signature until the Seahawks, Jazz or Rockies win a title (Started 5-16-09) SuperNiceDog: Guru winner |
MoogleKupo141 posted... And Red beat out every actual Pokemon Red beat out everyone except Pikachu, who he tied with, last time too. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
Red also had board support last time, Pikachu and maybe Squirtle should have been a higher seed IMO. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Congrats to SuperNiceDog for winning the guru contest. |
