Yo/RPG for best rivalry.

Though I hate the obnoxious pokemon fans as much as anyone. Even as much as a fanboy as I am, I still know how to be classy.

Same reason why even bronies hate bronies.

at least there is one rivalry worth talking about now

Sora vs. Dante would completely depend on whether it's a day match or a night match. Neither character is stronger than the other to the point that they win no matter the situation.

I'd pick Dante rather easily. I only backed Sora here because of the "rivalry" thing.

I'd pick Sora in a day match. Dante wins a night match.

On the off chance they'd actually have a 24-hour match, I'm not sure.

I'm surprised Ngamer and yo didn't segue the "We know too much" segment into a "hey bacon how about that all fictional characters contest idea riiiiiiiight?"

We wanted to of course, but I didn't want to get into it again after spending a whole segment on it just last week. Plus it's sure to be a major part of the wrap up show as well, soooo

The Sora/Dante convo makes me hope for aan all-fictional character battle. We'd be going in nearly blind again. Would be the most fun contest I've seen.

Yes, yesssssssssss. Hear that, Bacon?!

Wait, wait, wait...

We want to argue Link/Ammy had some potential pseudo-Nintendo SFF but Cloud/Kratos couldn't have had any sort of weird SFF of any sort?

Getting shot down by all three within two seconds when I brought up Sony SFF was a real highlight of the week!

First episode I've listened to this year. Pretty entertaining. Good job :)

I agree with sparkles for the vampires. Girly girl sparkles. Make the vampires look like an old MySpace page!!

I agree with calling the Pokefans man-children neck-bearded infidels XD Great diatribe. All Pokevoters should be forced to listen to that. It's funny because it's true.

From: LeonhartFour | #060But we still need a bonus poll with Mario/Sonic in it anyway!

Nah, Mario would just SFF Sonic. A bonus poll of Mario vs. Sonic against the contest winner would be nice though. (unless that's what you meant)

As for Dante/Squall, I'd take Dante over Squall in a 24 hour match, but it would be close. But of course the new DMC would be out by then so...never mind.

Don't screw up The Plan. Alucard will do something hilarious like beat Mega Man / Wily in the x-stats. Or give Link a R4 quadrupling!

After the second semifinal match (Link/Cloud), there will be a 24-hour break before the final match starts. During that 24-hour break, there will be a poll (Bacon confirmed this to me) and we need to get him to run a bonus match during the 24-hour break. I don't know what kind of bonus match we should go for. Possible candidates for a bonus match include Link/Ganondorf vs. Batman/The Joker, or Link/Ganondorf vs. Mario/Sonic.

Y'know, I've been down this whole contest. Normally I pretend that I'm someone else who I happen to agree with and try to project my thoughts and feelings through them, but even then, I've been just unable to really get excited for this contest.

Yoblazer - can I call you yo? Or perhaps some kind of title like 'world warrior of truth yo' or something far more witty - you have given me life. Through your absolute deconstruction, your brutal murdering, your meticulous and thorough disemboweling of Pokemon and my neckbeard, I feel renewed life, almost invigorated by just the sheer level of emotion you have unleashed with such simple, cutting words. You have destroyed not only my expectations, not only my wishes for this contest, but you have destroyed a part of my soul itself. And with part of it destroyed, I am completely unable to stop and restrain myself for praising your name on high for just how wrong you are. About Pokemon, I mean, the fanbase really deserved it, but 'Why did my poor GROWLITHE have to die?' is not a pansy line. That's, like, deep, man, and I hate the Pokemon fanbase for ignoring it. BUT, nonetheless, you have me waiting with bated breath just to see what the Trainers will do next, win or lose, to rile you into a frenzy. That is the true joy I will take from this contest, and I thank you for it.

That said, lovely job as always, adore it when you pick stirring guests that really get at least some level of disagreement going. I can't imagine how you stay the straight man to all that insanity, NG, but well done, seriously.

Also Lloyd > God of War? Sounds pretty similar to something from 2009, eh? Eeehhhh? But yeah, Kratos has clearly fallen off and I can honestly see him back at his "40% on non-rivalry Alucard" levels.

creative enjoyed the episode, huzzah!

But what's this, Batman/Joker in a Bonus Match? Ehhh... it's a great rivalry and all, but nah, can't support that idea. Let's save Batman and the rest of the top tier guys for the All Fictional Character bracket, where it'll really matter.

Ah, now THERE'S an idea I can get behind! We can't do a bonus involving Link or Mario there anyways, since they'll still be alive in the main bracket. A Bronze Medal match is the best solution all around.

Possible candidates for a bonus match include Link/Ganondorf vs. Batman/The Joker, or Link/Ganondorf vs. Mario/Sonic.

Bacon confirmed that either of these would be valid bonus matches? As in, one or more people who are licensed characters not originating in video games are acceptable?

I probably assume a bonus match involving Mario/Sonic would be acceptable, but I'm not sure about Batman/The Joker.

Sometime before the end of next week, we must decide on a bonus match for the 24-hour break right before the final match. I would say that Trainers vs. Cloud/Sephiroth would be the best idea there. After the final match, we can have Link/Ganondorf vs. Mario/Sonic.

That means we must start up a petition on this board sometime next week to get a bonus match for the 24-hour break.

Assuming that there is a lift on the "must originate from a video game" rule, what possibly strong fictional characters would be INELIGIBLE?

I was thinking that it would be mostly TV show characters that would be ineligible, but then they may have some iphone game or something.

So you're asking if anyone would be ineligible even if they WERE in a video game?

I guess it would depend on Bacon, really. Probably any strictly historical characters would be out (They'd have to be ridiculously out of sync with history like Wolfenstein's version of Hitler). Probably any athletes in a normal sports game since they're not actually fictional.

--
"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!"

Got confused when you answered with characters that were (apparently) eligible

--
Growlithe-Tackling Mantine - Go To Meowth - Gardevoir + Mamoswine

Just about anyone who would have serious strength has been in a video game. Most sitcom characters would not be very strong here, so it's not really an issue.
