BK_Sheikah00 posted... Why LMS always likes to ignore Pokemon in all his Nintendo talk is something I'd like to know. Oh yeah I forgot about Pokemon. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
I'm not even sure what to think of Mewtwo... --- "Here I go! Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
It's
really not all that weird to know people who don't know a game/game
series or certain characters. You could probably find plenty of people
who don't know a single Pokemon despite how huge the series is. I just
don't really know anybody into PC gaming and I've never really played
any PC games. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
If Mewtwo is anything like he's been in previous contests he should fold easily, dude nearly lost to Midna. But Mewtwo > Vincent is still happening. Why? Don't question the infallibility of the bracket~ --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
I have Pikachu > Crono and Charizard in the finals too, so it's not like I didn't have any POKEFEAR pre-contest. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Picking Mewtwo > Vincent is like picking Super Mario Sunshine > Halo 3. --- http://www.miscupload.com/upload/452457071929141623517416.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... LinkMarioSamus posted...There's literally no point to this message You know he was right... but this post was so good I must say I lol'd |
I'm
just saying if Pokemon were so powerful they wouldn't need all this
fanbase splitting to do their dirty work for 'em! Fox would probably be
winning today's match if it was 1v1!! --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
This really needs to stop. Mewtwo isn't bypassing Vincent. I doubt if people are actually considering it, just trolling here to screw some newbie Expert Challenge picks. |

I
know I voted for him, but why is Blue winning this? And the only
reason I voted Blue is because I didn't want to be involved in the Fox
v. Wolf argument. --- There are no stupid questions. Just pointless questions asked in incredibly stupid ways. |
Karma Hunter posted... If Mewtwo is anything like he's been in previous contests he should fold easily, dude nearly lost to Midna. Thinking about it, that's true - there's a difference between legitimately being strong and LOOKING strong because you got placed against opponents that were weak as hell (lol chester and 999 zero). --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
At
the very least Vincent's board vote is going to look even more awful
with him up against Mewtwo and Phoenix. He's going to be completely
buried in those first few minutes. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |

This
really needs to stop? Pokemon has looked amazing and Final Fantasy VII
has looked worse than it ever has before. Mewtwo vs. Vincent needs to be
honestly considered. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |
Karma Hunter posted... spooky96 posted...This really needs to stop. Mewtwo isn't bypassing Vincent. I'm sorry for the points which you are going to lose :( |
Vincent
is either so weak or so anti-voted these days that KOS-MOS got 40% on
him. I'm still picking him until further notice but I wouldn't be
surprised if Mewtwo just upends him. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
ChenKenichiFan posted... Pokemon has looked amazing ...No, it hasn't. It's looked fine. Better than FFVII relative to pre-contest expectations, certainly, but getting from Mewtwo to Vincent is still quite a bridge to gap. --- http://i.imgur.com/kCpvD.gif |
I
mean, I guess you can say Pokemon has looked amazing if all you look at
are raw percentages, but Jigglypuff and Blue aside, Pokemon keeps
getting paired with absolute crap that lets it get high percentages. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
Blue is actually the first Pokemon character to truly exceed expectations, I think. Maybe Squirtle but he still looked statistically weaker than Dante. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Squirtle didn't even look better than Dante, what a maroon if only he was a powerful Pokemon, like Mewtwo --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
LeonhartFour posted... LinkMarioSamus posted...There's literally no point to this message I have noticed you being especially hard on LMS. Didn't he make the leaderboard a couple of days this contest? He must be doing something right. --- The Constitution defines treason as giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Mr. Snowden is being called a traitor. Does that mean the American public is the enemy? |
Karma Hunter posted... spooky96 posted...This really needs to stop. Mewtwo isn't bypassing Vincent. Hm...you got Ryu over X? are you sure? Pretty surprised this is not being discussed alot (and when it does,this is more DRAVENFEAR nonsense rather than if X is stronger than Ryu) |
X's
performance on Jiggs, btw, is basically what's making me drive a dagger
into the heart of the Magikarp upset. Obviously it's very different,
but Mega Man and his newfound Smash aura may completely take the legs
out of Nintendo support Magikarp would have otherwise had, leaving him
with not enough joke votes to really threaten MM. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Swarles_Barkley posted... LeonhartFour posted...LinkMarioSamus posted...There's literally no point to this message Since when does making the leaderboard briefly in Round 1 mean anything? The Guru cookie would have been good for the leaderboard until this division. --- Menji has reclaimed what was his by rights. I was more of a man with his than with my own combined. ##Alec |
I know this is early but what's the consensus on Tom Nook/P. Head? Nook, right? --- ~Zen |
Nanis23 posted... Karma Hunter posted...spooky96 posted...This really needs to stop. Mewtwo isn't bypassing Vincent. The infallible bracket makes a lot of decisions I don't agree with (also we don't really have a good read on X, even now, not a good rationale but hey) --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
I've got Ryu > MMX, too! I still believe. --- http://i52.tinypic.com/2zfiu09.gif http://i54.tinypic.com/10729w2.gif |
ZenOfThunder posted... I know this is early but what's the consensus on Tom Nook/P. Head? ...I really have no idea. I've gone back and forth on that one. Tom Nook has always looked bad. Really bad. Pyramid Head hasn't looked much better, but he did beat Chris Redfield once, at least. --- http://i.imgur.com/eqOQs.gif |
Mega Man will be beasting this contest, Ryu has no chance. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
I'm only taking Nook over that recent AC for the 3ds and the sore thumb factor Pyramid Head hasn't had much other than a maze at Halloween Horror Nights and a crappy new movie and a mediocre Vita game --- ~Zen |
We're
over 53 matches into this contest. Most GameFAQs contests have only had
around 63 total matches, so making the leaderboard at this point is
actually quite good. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |
After Smash, any upsets on MM really went out the window, I'm even starting to doubt the Zard doing it. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
KamikazePotato posted... Vincent is either so weak or so anti-voted these days that KOS-MOS got 40% on him. I'm still picking him until further notice but I wouldn't be surprised if Mewtwo just upends him. ok guys does Mewtwo break 60% on KOS-MOS, yes/no |

LeonhartFour posted... ZenOfThunder posted...I know this is early but what's the consensus on Tom Nook/P. Head? You are now realizing that Chris's sister's match is a day after Pyramid Head's match. Coincidence? I think NOT. Oh and when I got us into that discussion on the possibility of Samus not dropping, I forgot that...her match is next! --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
ZenOfThunder posted... I'm only taking Nook over that recent AC for the 3ds and the sore thumb factor I gotta admit, that snazzy sweater is making me lean toward picking Nook. OVER DRAGONBORN --- http://img.imgcake.com/leonhjpguz.jpg |
I know this is getting way ahead of the current subject, but who's the favorite out of Shepard and Aerith? --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Ridley's
epic flop means that there's probably some level of non-transitivity
for FF7 now, to be honest. I wouldn't take the KOS-MOS match at face
value. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

Leon if you want to set the S.S. Nook Upset a-sailin', I will be your first mate --- ~Zen |
Well we are really going too far now! This is the moment I realize I have Isaac>Sandbag and Neku>Vaas>Catherine ... Is Sandbag>Isaac and Vaas last are locks? I don't know about Dead Space popularity but Sandbag>Magus so he must have some..kind of strength (joke votes strength,but might be enough) TWEWY was a huge back then when it was released,I heard about it everywhere..but Catherine..not so much? And Vaas is kinda a good character with his DEFINITION OF INSANITY but yes he is from Far Cry 3 which is FPS so I dunno how he will do..? (weaker than BL2 characters for sure) I change to Samus>Sandbag>Isaac and Neku>Catherine>Vaas Sorry but Neku got this |

I wouldn't take the KOS-MOS match at face value. non-linearity, you mean transitivity is simply if A > B and B > C, A > C (granted with 3-ways and SFF transitivity can't be counted on either) --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
Is
it possible Blue's strength is being overstated? I've read people
theorizing that Blue has shown enough strength to beat Crono/Pikachu
and/or Sora. If we assume that even 90% of Wolf's vote goes to Fox
(which may be an under-estimate), Fox wins 1v1. I don't think anyone in their right mind would expect Fox to beat either Crono/Pika or Sora, so what's the logic of saying Blue will beat them? Best plausible case scenario for Blue would be a Crono/Sora/Blue, and I can't see Blue winning against either of them head to head -- maybe Crono if CT shows a sharp decline but he looked alright in his first match. Is there even any real SFF between Crono and Sora? Or perhaps my logic is unsound, can someone with more knowledge of these contests enlighten me? --- I pwn you all! |
I just assume any FF7 character gets antivoted to hell at this point. The main thing is if it will bite them against characters who can make them suffer for it. Zack/Kefka could be foreboding for that. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
I have 48 and Blue today what are my chances of hitting the leaderboard at some point --- ~Zen |

If we assume that even 90% of Wolf's vote goes to Fox (which may be an under-estimate), Fox wins 1v1. I don't think anyone seriously thinks Blue's gonna win the division. He just looks to be equal to Fox. That's good, people should be happy for him. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
4 more days till Thunder Thighs completely embarrasses Tifa, can't wait! --- Zinsanity of the Helix Board |
Well I was right that Wolf will be SFF into a non-factor. Didn't matter to Blue though. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 43/52 Today's Picks: Pac-Man and Fox McCloud |
