| Topic | my 5 best and worst picks in contest history |

The Series Contest was so cookie cutter, and there were so few chances for you to stand out from the crowd. For me, this was the risk I took. Resident Evil was an overwhelming favorite on the board because there had been "Favorite Capcom series" polls in the past that Resident Evil had won, so everyone ended up siding with it. Then the match pic was revealed, and Resident Evil literally got a Resident Evil Gaiden match pic against the classic Street Fighter sprites (as an aside, I remember when people would randomly drop by the board and ask "who is this character and why are they winning?" the joke response was always to say they were the main character of Resident Evil Gaiden). I felt like this was my chance, even if it would've felt a little dirty to win because RE got such an awful match pic! In the end, Street Fighter kept it close most of the way, but it could never make a serious charge at taking the lead. Resident Evil pulled away a bit toward the end to give it a more comfortable margin of victory, but for a good while, I thought SF was going to pull it off! --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
