Jill will obviously beat Haggar so it just depends on how strong you think Red Bird is. I'm gonna say go jill --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
FFDragon posted... Am I the only one thinking Jilly V wins her match despite being the low seed? People think Jill can lose? Like they seriously do? Yeah, OK, time to bust this old chestnut out. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a135/Kracko/SmugleafOneLessBracket.jpg |

Please let Sonic/Vincent/Bowser be as epic as it looks on paper. That is all. I've talked the bracket to death for tonight. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
LeonhartFour posted... Please let Sonic/Vincent/Bowser be as epic as it looks on paper. You think Vincent isn't going to sleepwalk to the win, Leon? That feels like such a gimme unless Sonic gets big Ninty hype from the Direct. He's practically Nintendo and has always had some overlap with the Mario series. Bowser is gonna leech him to death. |
How long until the contest starts? Can't wait to see how division 6 plays out. |
?-Block
is intriguing...but it only looked so impressive in 2007 because people
were fed up with L-Block the day after it stole the contest. L-Block's
not been as strong since then, and I doubt the ?-Block will be either.
Its initial humor has also passed many of us by now. ?-Block probably escapes the first round, but Rikku won't go easy unless ?-Block's on Kirby's level. --- T H E S T A B L E - bring on Epona! http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg |
Is
anyone taking this Blue hype seriously..? I don't think many people are
that split on Wolf/Fox, and even then, I honestly feel like he'll SFF
Blue in his own way too. --- "i am pretty sure 3-year old children would generate more thoughtful discussion than board 8 on any topic of sexism" - Naye745 |
Still siding with Fox for the time being but that's a pretty blatant setup for Blue to advance, Bacon that sly fox. |
The thing about ? Block that makes it interesting is the voting fanbase it could garner. Joke character Nintendo character (Mario character) You think Nintendrones are going to not vote for ? Block against Rikku/Lyndis? If it gets out of Round 1 it will build steam as the contest goes on like Missingno & L-Block. Look out if that happens. --- ~The Dilated One~ |
Anyone else thinking 4) Lightning could make a huge run? I think she could make the final 27 or even the final 9. --- 2011 Rivalry Rumble Guru Champion Be sure to nominate Yuri Lowell from Tales of Vesperia for the 2013 Character Contest! |
Lyndis is a Nintendo character, but it will be a very weak one that's going to finish well behind ? Block and Rikku. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Lightning
makes it to Round 2. Can't see her pulling off a huge upset against
Zelda/Charizard even with SFF put into consideration. --- ~The Dilated One~ |
SuperNiceDog posted... Anyone else thinking 4) Lightning could make a huge run? I think she could make the final 27 or even the final 9. Do you think Lightning could boost to the level of '10 Aerith, at the minimum? If not she has absolutely zero chance. '10 Aerith beats her with more than 57% of the vote, and I wouldn't pick her to take advantage of this potential Nintendo split, much less one with two much stronger characters in Megaman and Zero. |
You
think Vincent isn't going to sleepwalk to the win, Leon? That feels
like such a gimme unless Sonic gets big Ninty hype from the Direct. He's
practically Nintendo and has always had some overlap with the Mario
series. Bowser is gonna leech him to death. There's a reason I'm saying "please." I'm hoping that DOESN'T happen. Also, I'm taking Fox > Blue even with Wolf there. People who keep trying to use Rivalry Rumble stuff to say Blue will be strong need to realize the format matters. And yeah, while Fox/Wolf will influence each other the most, Blue won't be TOTALLY immune to it. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
Dilated Chemist posted... The thing about ? Block that makes it interesting is the voting fanbase it could garner. I'm as much of a Nintendrone as they come and I would never vote for ? Block. He's an insult to gaming's most important franchise. |
Today's poll is interesting. Alot of people don't keep up with the conferences, or do they just go by word of mouth? --- ~The Dilated One~ |
KanzarisKelshen posted... Dilated Chemist posted...The thing about ? Block that makes it interesting is the voting fanbase it could garner. Am I missing something here? How is he insulting? --- ~The Dilated One~ |
Or "it", whatever. --- ~The Dilated One~ |

Dilated Chemist posted... Today's poll is interesting. Alot of people don't keep up with the conferences, or do they just go by word of mouth? I actually find today's poll interesting because it should have some interesting trends. I'd expect the last poll option to gain percentage in the morning when a lot of voters are at work, since they won't be able to watch most of the conferences live. And when Microsoft's conference finally does start, the last poll option will gain percentage during the Microsoft and Sony conferences. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Dilated Chemist posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...Dilated Chemist posted...The thing about ? Block that makes it interesting is the voting fanbase it could garner. It's a joke character trying to take advantage of a franchise that represents the childhoods of many. It represents mine, and I find the idea of a joke character winning because of Mario nostalgia repulsive. I'm not saying this is how everybody thinks, mind - this is just my personal take on ? Block and why I'd rather vote for a non-character like Zork's AFGNCAAP than give him my vote. |
KanzarisKelshen posted... So many people are getting POKEFEAR wrong. Let's hope we can make some of them change their minds. Yep, lots of people are still underestimating pokemon!! --- "Pokefear has been one of the best things for a bracket the last four contests." -Yoblazer |
Pokemon is slowly trying to kill everything I care about. I want it dead and I want it dead now. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
Well, at least we agree on it being a representation of Mario nostalgia. --- ~The Dilated One~ |
LeonhartFour posted... Pokemon is slowly trying to kill everything I care about. Sorry, but you just can't fight the RAW. --- Always. |
I can't wait for all this pokefear stuff to come crashing down. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Yeah.
When is that Bayonetta/N match? N's arc in the anime is currently
airing in the dub, so if that's a Saturday match I think Bayonetta's
going down. --- "Everyone has a dick although it may not be physical. You just have to learn to access it within your mind." NO SCIENCE NO PEACE |
I will fight the RAW, but I admit the RAW may win. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
pjbasis posted... I can't wait for all this pokefear stuff to come crashing down. I learned many contests ago to never underestimate pokemon. --- ~The Dilated One~ |

Dilated Chemist posted... The thing about ? Block that makes it interesting is the voting fanbase it could garner. ? block is also /v/'s spoiler image. Don't be surprised if they rally it. |
Gonna learn this contest that you CAN overestimate Pokemon. (Especially Red and Blue) --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Reminder
that the weakest a Pokemon game of relevance has looked in about 6
years was Gold/Silver/Crystal being as strong as every non-1 Metal Gear
Solid. Of course, N and Blue both have bomb potential because lol pokemon humans, but POKEFEAR shouldn't be a thing anymore. It's like going MARIOFEAR. Red is gonna coast to the division finals though barring Creeper nonsense or a Wario split giving Cecil or Wrex a shot. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
What does "of relevance" mean? That we can't count the actual weak entries like RSE and DPP? --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Red's
only problem should be LFF letting Cecil or Wrex by, yeah. Even with
Brawl pics, that section of the bracket is pretty weak. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
That means you can't count the actual game N is from in these calculations! --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
Red and Blue have very favorable paths though. Good chance they won't look good doing it. --- ~The Dilated One~ |
How does Knuckles/Red go? --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
pjbasis posted... What does "of relevance" mean? Well, given that they're the lesser-tier entries, yes. Nobody fears RSE and DPP. Although if you used POKEFEAR instead of LOLGTA to trust RSE during GOTD you would've been right! --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
Not gonna underestimate Pokemon this contest. Taking Charizard to beat MM/Zero, Red to beat Cecil, Ekans to win the contest. |
How does Knuckles/Red go? ...Knuckles, I guess? I dunno what to make of him anymore. That Cecil match has jaded me on him forever. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
Well
I mean N's only in the discussion for maybe winning a match because
Bayonetta and Wander are trash, so it's just a question of if that guy
from the Pokemon game that's stronger than Final Fantasy XIII-2 can be
the least worthless. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
LeonhartFour posted... Red's only problem should be LFF letting Cecil or Wrex by, yeah. Even with Brawl pics, that section of the bracket is pretty weak. You know, I just realized something: if a Red underperformance occurs and it's because of sprites, I will laugh so hard I just might suffocate. People blow the 'brawl pics bawwwwww' thing way out of proportion I feel. |
I just feel like Knuckles is an obvious win over Ocelot. Doesn't take much to get Cecil > Red --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
I felt like it was before Cecil happened. That felt like an obvious win. And if that had been a night match, Cecil probably wins. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
I
would love to believe Cecil would beat Red straight-up, but it just
doesn't sit well with me. Probably because I'll believe Cecil will win a
match when it actually happens. Luckily A) Wario is there, and B) I'm biased as hell with my picks, so if Red bombs so Cecil does make it to Round 3 I look like a genius. *phew* --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
Biased picks is the only way to be --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
KanzarisKelshen posted... LeonhartFour posted...Red's only problem should be LFF letting Cecil or Wrex by, yeah. Even with Brawl pics, that section of the bracket is pretty weak. I fully expect Red to get brawl pics and then Blue ends up looking stronger overall. People just don't understand how much of the Pokemon fan base don't know that Red is his official name. 50% of people who played RBY probably played Blue version and would be really confused over why he's not called Blue. THEN throw in pictures from a spin off game where he isn't called Red either, and no one realises he's the protagonist of Gen 1. If you didn't grow up with RBY than I don't expect a lot of you to get this. I was a gamefaqs casual lurker in 2010 (didn't know of Board 8) and I thought it was Pokemon Trainer (Brawl) vs Ocelot. The pic completely changed my perception of who was in the match. The Rivalry Rumble might of changed this a bit. I mean heck, Blue is a 12 seed. But that happened 2 years ago so who knows. At least with Blue, voters will instantly think "oh look it's the Rival from RBY!" and then vote based on who they like the best. /rant |
