I still say that allowing Mewtwo is just as bad as allowing Dark Link.

A clone is a clone man.


I agree.

Time to kick out Solid Snake too.

Give me DK over Lightning 1v1. DK is probably better off today than he has been in years, he's actually got games people play and enjoy again.

The biggest reason to have no faith in Lightning is that FFXIII has been pretty uninspiring in every poll since its release.

I mean XIII-2 lost to everything of vague note and XIII-3 had less hype for it than Fire Emblem.

I don't get this NoFunFAQS stuff...what, exactly, would be the fun in a near unanimous favorite winning via probable shenanigans?

I think it's pretty obvious from these topics that the great majority here would have much more fun with a Tidus win. This, despite how much people here love their precious brackets!

For Tidus, after years of embarrassment, to finally get a win here of all places would be hilarious.

Boy, I hope this just isn't another thing to add on to Tidus's choking resume. Then again, he's not really supposed to even be in this position so how disappointing is it if he does lose? I just dunno... obviously EXTREMELY disappointing but yeah.

I don't think you can choke a match where virtually no one expected you to win, and where if you lose it will probably be due to shenanigans.


lol
preemptive excuses?

#166 | Lightning Strikes | Posted 8/12/2013 7:58:15 AM | message detail
It's a semi-ironic reference to Lil'B of all people, who defines it here:

“Based means being yourself. Not being scared of what people think about you. Not being afraid to do what you wanna do. Being positive. When I was younger, based was a negative term that meant like dopehead, or basehead. People used to make fun of me. They was like, ‘You’re based.’ They’d use it as a negative. And what I did was turn that negative into a positive. I started embracing it like, ‘Yeah, I’m based.’ I made it mine. I embedded it in my head. Based is positive.”

Though basically it's just a nonsense positive word. It doesn't really mean anything specific, I guess "great" is the closest definition.

Also, I actually have Missingno going to round 3 so maybe I should root for him. Conflicting feelings are tearing me in two.

Pretty sure it's a joke at the expense of how the joke character supporters like to characterize the contest/us.

Where the joke character is always the underdog who will upset the order of things and FF always wins.

but i could be wrong. i am not an expert on NoFunAllowedFAQs.

You Missingno to Round 3 people are better off here if Tidus wins, honestly. He's not beating Squall, but Amaterasu might if Tidus is there.

It also fits because one of Lil B's songs samples the Besaid Island theme, or should I say, Based Island theme.
