Morgoth's Quickie Quick Questions! - Contest Day 8
1) Bowser > Auron > Ryu - That's still my call next round. How crazy am I?

Too crazy for words, HOWEVER, I think the Ryu topping Bowser crowd is nearly as nutzo. Mewtwo's a legit Contest threat, I think yesterday proved that, and there was no shame in Koops not being able to SFF him. Toad stealing all those votes was more or less a given... but with Bowser the only N-option, I don't see it as a problem to advance. Beating Auron though is another matter entirely... I really can't justify that pick at this point.

2) Alright, now that you've said my bracket's screwed, is yours too?

Nay, I like my Auron > Bowser > Ryu (in a tight one) > Shadow pick. I could easily see Ryu holding a lead into the early morning hours, but I don't think it will be big enough to save him from his traditional day collapse.

3) Toad vs Ness?

Poor Ness, always thrown into these situations. I think Toad could give him a run, maybe make a decent push in the day, but would still back Ness in something like a 53/47 affair.

4) Not bothering to ask if Mewtwo deserves to come back, we all know he will. Easy one, out of those, who would he beat ?

Yoshi > Knuckles > Yuna > DK > Mewtwo > Tidus > Ness > Gordon

5) Ngamer suggested poll: Peach or Meta Knight, who'll take 2nd today?

Peach, and I honestly don't think it'll be a problem for her. Meta's had 2 hours here during what I'd imagine is his prime time, and hasn't done anything after his hot start. As I speak Peach just cut another 10 from his lead here in the dead of night... what's to make me believe that MK's going to hold up well once the sun comes up, when Luigi used those same morning hours to take a commanding lead on the much more "kiddie-friendly" Kirby?

And keep in mind Peach has already proven she's got the fan support to pull out a tight one if this has to go to the wire.
