Board 8 > The Show EP 1 - Say hello to the RIVALRY RUMBLE! *sigh* [w/ yoblazer and Leon!]

(+) Yeah! (+)

Quick note: This is kind of a dud of a Contest, so The Show's going to be taking a step back in quality this season as well. As in shorter episodes, less focused, less professional, less edited, and we might not do one every week if nothing interesting happens. Just don't say I didn't warn you!

Contest season is back, a bracket is up... that must mean it's time for the return of The Show! Now, we've got three weeks before the first match is going to actually start, so this week yo and I took at look at the "big picture" for this season, rather than getting into specifics over who's going to win each R1 match and the like.

Our special guest was the legendary Leon, who missed all of S2 because he was in Africa. It was great to have him back!

Stuff We Hit On:

* New Format: Character Rivalries
* Thoughts on new features (Final Jeopardy, more 24 hour matches, etc)
* SB bans Mario/Sonic and others from the Suggestion List
* Will SmarterVoterFAQs return?
* Who wins it all?
* Overall interest level for this Contest

(iTunes and RSS stuff isn't up to date yet, I'll get that later, just use the link above for now)

If you love The Show and want us to do new episodes every week like last year, be sure to post here and let us know!

Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ!

Last year these things just got way too long and I don't want to invest myself too much in this contest, so I'll watch this later, maybe?

Well, we've got three weeks before the contest starts, so we didn't want to blow everything on one show and then have nothing to talk about for three weeks.

And believe me, it was difficult not getting to talk about Squall or Tidus, but I managed.
