Not to toot my horn too much, but the best low effort match pic of all time.
---

it's right up there with the Sandbag slamming into the earth pic yoblazer made for Melee/Brawl
---

I have a soft spot for the Pong vs. Tetris pic
---

https://board8.wikia.com/wiki/(7)Pong_vs_(2)Tetris_2004

On a more serious note, this match truly did suck. 67000 votes is a horribly low voter turnout, and it was blatantly obvious that Tetris wasn't going to do squat against Zelda 1 in the next round because of this.

i felt an actual pain in my heart reading this

I wonder how many matches have done worse than Max/Dirk the Daring in the last few contests, which held the record for lowest vote totals for nearly a decade.

HAYTER JUST RETWEETED

this was the best moment of CBIX hands down
---

I remember it was a mod who tweeted Hayter in the first place, and someone accused him of meddling in the site's contest by doing so.
---

It was Error who got him to retweet about the contest, yeah.
---

imagine accusing someone of meddling when allen's """"""""""wife""""""""""" used his account to ask the LoL subreddit to cut their shit out
---

seriously I had forgotten how happy that moment made me

I'm smiling and laughing as I re-read this old Stats Topic, even though I know how it ends

better than anything we got from 2015

Link it Leon

They aren't wrong but the ship on that sailed many rounds before the finals. >_>

David Hayter ‏@DavidBHayter 20s
@Tiirshak: @DavidBHayter Um, could you please stop, my bracket needs Draven to win. You're being manipulated.

#MostEmbarrassingTweetEver

hahahahaha I totally forgot about this one

Hayter is the MAN

seriously rally this man again when the time comes against Link
---

Thank you leon.
---

it's a real shame that Snake never took the lead, even for an update, especially since he came so close

he got within 200 votes before the Draven ralliers kicked it into high gear

Charizard was supposed to romp with ease en route toward possibly making the finals after his run in 2010.

He barely beat Zelda and got outrallied by Mega Man in a match where he was ridiculously favored.

The last one is hard to stress how insulting it is to his pedigree. A Pokemon. Getting outrallied.

seriously KH come back

I know you'd be right here with me on the Mewtwo is a fraud wagon
---

I'm taking Mewtwo over Tifa because it's Pokmon + Smash vs. Final Fantasy VII. But I too am a little worried Mewtwo may be a fraud.
---

Nice I forgot I never watched that last found in translation video
---

yeah that last one was pretty great

too bad there's only going to be one more
---

oh snap Zero is an Assist Trophy in Smash Ultimate

that could be just the thing to put him over the top against Pikachu

I can't believe I'm typing this
---

so's Alucard and i only half-joke when I say that's why i can't see him losing to Peach. I guess that can still happen.

more seriously Smash gives Simon a half-decent match picture, which I think helps him a lot his match
---

well we'll actually see blond Simon instead of redhead Simon so that could have an effect or something

Blaze a path and go your own way

is there a reason why you're making this pointless post?

these topics aren't me telling them who to pick

they're giving them things to think about that perhaps they hadn't considered to inform their decisions
---

So I guess you didn't archive it
Oh well
---

*sighs*

you could actually read the topic because you're like the fourth person to ask if it's been archived so the post showing where it's archived has already been posted several times

Nanis being negative, illiterate and passive-aggressive all in one post. A new low.

If was a half hearted joke I know it's just you giving opinions and cross examination my dude. Nothing in these contests is certain that's why we enjoy them.

I apologize
Just thought it would be pointless to read it if I missed the first part
---

there's already a general archive site
---

yeah but nobody ever remembers where that is
---

I went and changed a bunch of stuff in my bracket, including changing back to Spyro winning in Round 1 because that just looked right to me.

But I rarely hear anyone talk about Street Fighter so I'm just going off what I know.
---

yes because everyone is always talking about Spyro

it has literally the most intuitive name possible for an address besides "board8generalarchivesite.com"

and yet
---

people are stupid

I hear more about Spyro than I do about Street Fighter in passing, yes, but then again I don't come across much discussion on non-Smash fighting games in general.
---

Nicki Minaj just released a song called Chun Li
---

In fairness I don't keep track of current music.
---

in fairness you are out of touch with most things

which is why you should stop using anecdotal evidence to make your picks
---

LeonhartFour posted...

He is getting a remake coming up. I don't think he'll win but its not out of the question weird if he does

That has to appeal like like 0.5% of people on gamefaqs tho
---

if only Mersh was the one who released it

could've been huge for Chun's board vote
