Well, we already had Bowser as the final Mario entrant, why not have Tifa as the Final FF entrant?

Yeah, good job on Kirby for holding on the entire hour, but Seph might be done screwing around here.

Is it possible to just make that the default? I'm guess it's probably the sorting option that's used the most.

Hmm...in the past I did a poll and people preferred it this way.

I coded this so long ago but I'll see if I can do that. Do people really want that? Because in the past they didn't, as you couldn't see the latest percentage at first glance.

oh hi Sephiroth, glad you could finally join us

in a way I'm kind of glad he's winning - Mewtwo/Kirby sounds like the easiest possible match for Draven next round

I don't really remember the poll but if other people seemed to like it how it is, maybe it's best to leave it. Ultimately, it's just saving one click and maybe prevent a few people from getting lost.

Kirby gets to hold onto the lead for at least one more update. Big Boss almost cuts him, too.

Definitely taking BB > Kirby in a 1v1 setting, the dum pink ball really dropped the dum pink ball here.

Well, we already had Bowser as the final Mario entrant, why not have Tifa as the Final FF entrant?


it actually seems pretty possible as long as L-block and samus take votes from each other. that just leaves red/charizard who will do the same thing, landing tifa in the finals. she's also waaaay less likely to get anti-voted.

Excuse me, Squall is going to smash Red and go to the finals in Tifa's place.

Squall would have beaten Sonic twice if he hadn't been artificially inflated. And he still almost won!

I find it funny that Squall, historically the strongest non-Noble Niner, has still yet to get a win over a Noble in any format.

This is why I am going full fanboy and hoping against hope that Squall can somehow smash Vivi into the ground in his match and Red shows himself to be a fraud of epic proportions. He can win against Samus and Megaman/Charizard. That big win is so close I can almost taste it!

Well, he beat Vincent. That puts him around Phoenix Wright level.

Though Phoenix did it better.

Wonder if he will make a comeback tomorrow.

I don't keep up with trends or times or any of that, but I feel like Kirby would be better during the day right?

Vivi beat Mario.

If any of the Square dudes are gonna come out of that match in spite of LFF it's him.

And please I don't think I want to live in a world where Squall is in the Final 9. Even if Sephiroth is there too.

Kirby will probably do better during the day, problem for him is we've got about 8 hours of darkness left where Sephiroth is going to brutalize him.

Squall/Auron 2010 is Squall's best victory. Had to settle for the guy that stomped Sonic instead of Sonic himself.

Ah. That damn Auron, stealing Squall's chance at glory.

And Vivi will probably kill his chance at glory here. Other FF characters hate Squall confirmed!

As far as Vivi/Red/Squall goes, I give it something like

95% chance Red gets an easy win
4% chance Vivi pulls some miracle (best odds for Vivi have him in third)
1% Squall wins naturally

Banking on that 4% !

Guys

Sephiroth beats Draven/Mewtwo because rallies dry up.

Final is Sephiroth/Snake/Samus

Snake and Samus split some Brawl support.

Sephiroth our CB champion once again.
