If Pikachu made the Sweet 16, I'd pluck each of my chest hairs in torment.

...old Pikachu all-but folded against PaRappa. We saw how loved he is >_>

And if we armed them all with two swords, we'd have four times the votes!

Obviously this just means PaRappa > Tidus!

I'm still surprised Pika's got first and Serge has last when most of us thought it'd be a battle between them for second place.

Correction, only you thought this. I knew Pikachu would be a good bit above Serge. He's uber fodder.

Chrono Cross sucks.

Just because you have Pikachu going to Round Three doesn't mean you can arrogantly "correct" me like so. Pikachu/Serge was a heated discussion.

Didn't you get the memo? If anybody gets anything right, they have a right to be total dicks to everybody who predicted differently from them, everybody who may or may not have doubted them, and everybody in general. I have Pikachu going to Round Three, and look at me!

Let's see how far we can get Pikachu using past matches. Right now if they were the only two characters in the poll it'd be 52.5% - 47.5%

Round 1: Pikachu > Tidus (*points at results*)
Round 2: Pikachu > Leon & Vivi (Tidus did the same on Mega Man and Vincent > Ganondorf > Tidus > Zelda through direct matches)
Round 3: Pikachu > Dante (Vincent > Ganondorf > Tidus > Dante direct matches)
Round 4: Pikachu > Ganondorf & Master Chief & Luigi (Pikachu is doing better on Tidus than Ganondorf did and Vivi beat DK more than MC, Pikachu > Vivi and Dante did better on Ratchet, Pikachu > Dante)
Round 5: Pikachu > Solid Snake > Sonic (Vincent beat Zelda worse than Snake did, Pikachu slightly below Vincent using Ganon and Tidus and Luigi did better on Zero than Sonic, Pikachu > Luigi)
Round 6: Pikachu > Cloud & Link (Snake > Sora > Alucard more than Cloud > Alucard, Pikachu > Snake and Cloud has already beat Link before)

Pikachu for Champion!!!

Tidus needs about 14 votes per update to come back so unless he has a huge after school vote don't expect him it come back.

You could put Tanner above Link with that kind of logic... I think.

Well....

CATS > Ganondorf based on direct matches with Link.
Ganondorf > Mario based on direct matches with Sephiroth.
Mario > Cloud.
Cloud > Link.

Therefore: CATS > Link.

Much harder to do it with Tanner though, as he doesn't beat anyone directly or indirectly.

Master Moltar | Posted 9/25/2007 9:56:47 AM | message detail
Woah, is Tidus actually not giving up?

School just needs to end so Pikachu can Down+B him once and for all. I KNOW I'M WRONG ALREADY GEEZ TIDUS JUST DIE!

CATS > Ganondorf based on direct matches with Link.
Ganondorf > Mario based on direct matches with Sephiroth.
Mario > Cloud.
Cloud > Link.


This doesn't quite work because it repeats the use of Link. I think it's possible with no inherently contradictory statements (though of course very silly) and with using Tanner.

Tarrot | Posted 9/25/2007 10:41:25 AM | message detail
If Tidus, facing three other RPG characts pulling votes off him, won, I'd laugh like a maniac. And yes, I think Tidus pulls more of the side-votes than Pika does, as GS and CC are both really seen as RPGs as opposed to Pokemon.
YoAriel33 | Posted 9/25/2007 11:51:13 AM | message detail
Tidus cut it down to 1750, but it seems as though the after school vote has begun. Pokemon... ****.

You weren't in here before this match. Everytime I brought up Pikachu having some strength, I was called moron, idiot etc. I deserve the right to be a dick after the criticism I got for that pick.

That's because you're the least classy, most annoying person here. We've all had crazy picks. Heck, look at HM's contest portfolio (lol sorry, just an example), and nobody here disrespects him. It's not your picks; it's your attitude.
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/25/2007 11:57:55 AM | message detail
It's hard to have a good attitude when "Hey guys, I have Pikachu to round 3!"

You're the only person (well, besides fedor) that people do that to. You could get your precious Zero upset correct and everybody would still consider you a complete dumbass, because of the way you act.

hmm. you all know he's doing this to get a rise out of you all, yeah?

there's so many more interesting/productive things we could be discussing than his behaviour. we discuss that every other day, and frankly, the stats topic is a lot worse off because of it.

People wouldn't treat you like if you didn't give them a reason to, and that holds especially true for this topic (despite the whole elitist stereotype). We've got people tossing around insane opinions galore, yet nobody acts in a cold or crude manner unless provoked. Heck, we've had people who are pretty new to the English language (voltch, zwong), and no one insulted them (we poked fun at them, sure, but it was all in good fun). You provoke it, Turtle.
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/25/2007 12:17:50 PM | message detail
What did I provoke? I say Zero has a realistic shot at round 3, and KH jumps down my throat. If anything, I'm the one who's been getting provoked. I could go back and find specific examples, but I don't care about a bunch of guys on the internet enough to waste my time.

I always find it funny when the same afterschool vote who humps Master Chief gives massive boosts to stuff like Pikachu. Halo, Kingdom Hearts, Pokemon, yeah that's some similar stuff.

Pikachu after school vote is insane, he is doing much better with it in comparison to the NPH.

If Vivi don't build 2500 leads over Pikachu in the next round, we can say "bye, bye" to our brackets.

I think it's quite obvious that Part 499 is going to become the black sheep of CS&D history.

Anyway, I'm still not convinced Pikachu can go any farther, he's too close to Tidus in this match for me to believe that he can sneak past Vivi.

I think Tidus and Vivi share enough of a fanbase for them to weaken each other enough for Pika to slip through.

Unless something crazy happens and Ridley wins or something.

Division 6 is a black sheep for this bracket. I'll be glad when we actually get back to upsets somebody took so we can shake up the leaderboard. I guess Vivi>Leon could make some noise but did enough people really take it?
