What the Morrigan

--
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

MvC3 hype, I guess.

Don't ask me how she won.

--
http://www.gifsoup.com/view/593815/frasier-and-niles-dance-o.gif

Sounds like a bad idea now! MVC3 "hype."

--
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

Morrigan had no competition. Returners bracket is pretty soft.

--
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

'whoops'

--
Support Otacon (Metal Gear Solid) for Character Battle IX!

Who else was in the running in the Returners bracket? That must have been super weak for Morrigan to sneak through.

--
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

Bison was a much better option than Morrigan.

Chun-Li and Diablo, too.

--
http://i52.tinypic.com/2zfiu09.gif
http://i54.tinypic.com/10729w2.gif

Oh, whoa, all three of those are much better than Morrigan. Board 8 disappointment!

--
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

But I don't like any of those guys!

--
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

I don't like Diablo either.

He's still a better option than Morrigan.

Nice catch BlAcK TuRtLe.
But too bad your ass got SAAAAAAAAAAACKED.*tackles*

Terry Bogard doesn't really merit getting back into a contest based on his strength alone, unfortunately.

--
"Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!"
"Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!"

instead of these guys we should all just nominate cid highwind so he gets a good draw

he actually put up pretty decent numbers against mega man

--
http://i55.tinypic.com/20t3qfm.png

i do support barret and seifer though

i nominate them every year along with laguna

--
http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/670/ohbrett.png

We tried! The NRT did their best to get him a good seed, but alas.

Also, I gotta wonder how the results would go if we re-ran the contest. I have a feeling some things would end up differently.

--
http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/7760/222bj.jpg

Honestly, should we consider rerunning the returners bracket? I have nothing against Morrigan, but now that MVC3 hype has dried up, it doesn't really seem like the best idea.

The four other characters are great picks, though. Especially Barret, who's been one of the biggest snubs over the years.

--
CRAZY DAVE (PLANTS VS. ZOMBIES)
Your Character Battle IX champion.

for like the past 5 years, i've nommed cid, seifer, and laguna and then traded the rest of my noms for cid

count me in for this i guess

except for morrigan

--
http://i55.tinypic.com/20t3qfm.png

I've thought about re-running it since it's been over a year since the last one, but I don't know. I'm sure the results would change just because the circumstances are different, but I don't want the last one's results to go to waste at the same time.

Just re-run it and have people nominate Morrigan and whoever wins the new one.

when did i pledge my support to squirtle

that doesn't even make sense

but whatever

--
It's F-Zero. F-ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERO!
http://img.imgcake.com/RedShifter/trisisofasscendsjpguv.jpg

I'll be sure to nominate Otacon.

--
Ya ain't in Mrs. Quitter's School for Resettin' Babies no more. It's time ya graduated, kid.

Looking a these I didn't think I had supported Seifer... but that's just how badly FF8 is under-represented in the contests. Even if it can't be Laguna, the game deserves a second rep.

--
"Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!"
"Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!"

Oh the memories of arguments and debates with loons over "Morrigan is the best choice!".

I don't use the Chaosmon account any more (you may want to change the listed name to reflect that), but I'll still support all of them.

Also support rerunning it and getting someone better than Morrigan, but whatever. <.<

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/Sensui22/1248835958206.png

I recall the selling point for Morrigan (besides fanboys and her breasts) was the MvC3 hype. Obviously next year we need for Mike Haggar to win a spot since there was far more hype for him than Morrigan (whom no one cares about during pre-release or post).

--

Well, if Haggar had been in a contest before, then he could've made a Returners run!
