Okay well I guess I was just hoping to add to the conversation, will make sure to not do that from now on with you whatever.


Oh I didn't mean ill will, it's just an argument I have NEVER understood.

Like, why does it matter if someone thinks..... say, that Celes is the main character of Final Fantasy 6?

I wanted to vote for Mordin, Leon. I really did... but....

So did I. But this is one of the very few matchups in which that just wasn't happening.

Is this really impressive? I mean, these guys are *really* scrubby, as much as it breaks my heart to say it. Epona was expected to win huge here by everyone sane, I thought.

Not you, KP.

Like stats is all fun and good until someone decides that another person maybe not being on the exact wavelength as them is "being purposefully annoying."

So rude geesh.

Huh, 2 minute freeze today.

Epona's gonna go way down from here, but she should still finish above 50%, I think.


Freeze was closer to 1:15. It was nowhere near 2 full minutes.

To be fair, you don't exactly come across as "polite and pleasant" in a lot of your posts, so it's pretty easy to see why he could perceive you being the way he did.

The freeze has been very wonky this entire contest, because of the new poll results pages. I guess Bacon (or Devin) didn't do enough testing to make sure they functioned like they should.
