(+) Yeah! (+)

Whew, Show Curse avoided. That would have been embarrassing!

What is the most likely contest for next year? Best Game Ever III or back to the regular Character Battle? I know the board has been trying to sell Allen on CB Been-in-a-game over CB Originated-from-a-game, and though Allen hasn't specifically said he'll never run one, he may just be pocket vetoing the idea. Might be a good idea to push for something like Items or Weapons. I know Characters >> Items but at this point who isn't interested in a contest with a completely new playing field?

I get the impression SB will think of this as a Character Battle and still be looking to do something else in 2012. Got to believe he's gotten past his "newer games will always win!" frame of mind and can be talked into realizing that the no-generation split 1v1 GotD rocked, and mixing those games with the last two years plus the best of the past (besides Ocarina/FF7) would be even better.

Now I'm all for something totally new, but ehhhh, Best Item/Weapon doesn't do it for me. If there's something new in 2012 I still suspect it'll be Best System, considering the timing- all of current gen coming to an end but the next gen not quite having launched yet (depending on the time of year).

I'd search B8 for The Show if I were you. *wink wink*

What would you guys think of a Best Contest Of All Time tournament to be held on B8.

Obviously we've had 14, so there would be two play-ins, and then four byes.

I don't like that idea.

I LOVE it.

Uhhh for fodder instead of byes you could use the Top 100 Games, which was technically a "contest" since we all predicted the Top Ten.

Best Handheld Game. Pokemon to finally win something, or will Link's Awakening pull through for Our Overlord?

The Show is just one match away from having an outstanding contest. If Link wins, there was only one match where BOTH Ng and I dropped the ball (Frog/Magus > Alucard/Dracula), and we both thought that it was a highly debatable coin flip.

My only regret is not having faith in Phoenix Wright. Hats off to SuperNiceDog

Chocobo beat Goomba in Dr. Football's Guru contest.

I didn't get scared by the Squall/Sora match! I said Squall was going to win 5 minutes into the match, and I was confident he was going to win pretty much the entire time.

--

Two straight contests where Squall has won a match despite losing in America.

True anti-American hero

--
"Stay with me until the end. Please."
"Not until the end. Always."

Squall took the lead for the first time (post-freeze, that is) 1 hour, 45 minutes into the match.

--
"But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside."
"I am lightning...the rain transformed."

I wish Squall had managed to build a lead of 15,000 overnight.

Good vote totals!

Too bad Link didn't SFF Mario quite as hard as we thought.

There will be no SFF adjustments on my end because there's really no point in making adjustments on a contest format we'll never see again.

Sephiroth could beat Mario, probably.

He seems to be Mario's Kryptonite, for whatever the reason.

This Magus rant reminds me of how far he's fallen based on our original expectations.

I'm fairly certain the last perfect bracket in 2003 lost it on Link/Magus.
