WOW. just..... WOW...... when i saw Samus take the lead and hold onto it for the first ten minutes, my jaw hit the floor. i couldn't believe that Samus could win this match, and i actually still had a shot at winning. i honestly thought there was no way Samus was going to win and didn't really want to stick with Samus. but being five seconds late stuck me with her and i couldn't be happier. this has got to be one of the few (if only) times that making a mistake actually benefited someone (just ask pikaness, DSRage, or Megatokyo Ed.... )


And on a more personal note, this is why you play to win. This is why I picked Cloud over Link in 2004. Cyko, I can't believe that you tried to give up... or how lucky you are that you failed! No matter which way this goes, this was definitely one of the most dramatic Oracle Challenges ever... one for the books!

well, i wasn't giving up on second place, lol. i just really thought Snake was poised to win after slaughtering Mega Man and Sonic. it still defies logic that Zelda and Tifa could do so well against Samus, only to have Samus walk right past Snake. and trust me, i still can't believe how lucky of a break that was for me!! all personal bias aside, that definitely made for the craziest and closest finish to any Oracle Challenge so far.

this has been a great contest, everyone! Salient, you fought very well and made one heck of a comeback! and thanks for the congrats, Salient, Aprosenf, Kaxon, and creativename! ^_^

FIRST PLACE!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

now, where's Morgoth? i owe him some sweet love. >_>
