19 - Heroic Metool

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetool

Metool posts so infrequently these days and it sucks. Metool repeatedly kicks my ass in chess. he'll always get one pawn up and slowly beat me down. we haven't played in a while though - I'm up for getting beat one more time sometime, even if I'm not very good. but one day I'll, uhhh, tie you!

Metool also started the infamous DEATHMATCHes. what started as a silly attempt at a cheap 500 topic turned into a competition between some serious internet geeks using login scripts and dozens of alts. DEATHMATCH was extremely fun until it got shut down a few months ago, one of my favourite things to happen on the board this year. Metool also usually makes the topic of happiness and is known for being a happy person, probably because of all the emoticons he used to use.

Metool is intelligent and also has some funky gaming taste. I saw him say that he wanted to make a games list in ND's topic - do it! you know I'd read it. it'd also make you start posting again and that would be awesome.

18 - Sesshomaru Purified

hilarious. Sess says some of the stupidest crap ever, yet he always makes me laugh. I didn't think he could get worse than impersonating ertyu (which he's freaking great at), but his new "darn you cjay" thing takes the cake. stupidest thing I've ever seen. I'm amazed he doesn't get nailed for harassment or some such thing. not that it matters since he gets axed once a week. same with his harassment of ertyu. when Sess is talking to ertyu, he gets stuff out of him that's ten times better than the normal stuff we see on the board. Sess kills me.

I actually like Sess more when he's talking like a real person though. he's just damn cool to me. Sess is one of my favourite people to just sit around and talk to. he and I don't share any common interests, but we still get along just fine.

do not bet the most famous account in board 8 history on this. want to see what your account started?

I am aware of what this beautiful account started. But, see, it's not going anywhere. It'll be here now and after the contest is over, likely to be pronouncing how spectacular Twilight Princess is and why it's better than everything else!!

You won't miss it because it's going nowhere!

in Sp2k4, he had an all-Zelda final four if I remember right.

Somewhat right, somewhat wrong -- my favorites bracket had an all-Zelda final four; my serious bracket had none of them making it.

Actually, his big thing in the Games Contest was saying Chrono Trigger would win it all.

I still have FFVII winning, believe it or not. =p

I think others value your account more than you do. I'd hate to see it go - hell, I hate to see any of my favourite users close their accounts, but especially that one. I just don't like account bets. the only time I like them is when someone who's an idiot loses one, but then they don't close their accounts anyway so it's pointless.

Hey, I do value an account that has my prolific contributor page attached to it, the only account I've gotten over 1,000 karma, and the first one I ever made. Where it starts to get off is how you people have no confidence in the match whereas I'm supremely confident.=

I haven't. Most of me cash has been spent on moving and getting everything in order to get into my free house -- oh yes -- and then what funds I do have left are going to a Wii and TP. If I end up getting this little job at a hospital around here, though, I may be able to slip some in and pay for it!!

But yeah, I'll probably just wait until it drops in price.

It's not a particularly good game, but you get the sense going away from it that Vincent is an incredible badass -- moreso than one does with Dante in DMC2, and we all know what that did for him.

moreso than one does with Dante in DMC2, and we all know what that did for him.

I think that's a rather different case. DMC2 was generally regarded as a better game, but only that, Dante's first appearance was more recent and with only one game. Vincent is apart of GameFAQs's favorite game and is already really popular. I'm interested in seeing how it sold though. That'd be more helpful than anything. If it only sold, like, 200,000 copies when matches are going to have upward to 120,000 votes ....

Dude, you're always confident. How confident you are has no correlation with how likely you are to be right, at all.

Neither does doing something like comparing this match to Mega Man against Link,. Star Ocean over Pokemon, or anything else that people like to cite. It takes no stretching of stats or crazy boosts or anything else for Ganon to beat Sonic. People just, for whatever dumb reason, think that way -- I blame that nasty "Noble Nine can't be touched lol" nonsense.

no, it's not some "Noble Nine lol" thing, it's just that I can't see a villain without much character like Ganondorf take down a gaming icon like Sonic. I know this place loves their Nintendo and their Zelda, but not that much.

I don't think the idea of the Noble Nine can't be beaten really holds much water outside of the stat topic. Solid Snake getting upset was a big topic of discussion everywhere last year.

I'd have more support for my pick if I was choosing Sora over Snake because of KH2. That doesn't make it any better. <<
