At least Yoshi looks better in Brawl than in Melee -_-.

Kirby: 16
Yoshi: 124

Look's like Yoshi is gonna set a new record for most points in this game.

Yes, it was supposed to be a popularity contest, and that is what has me so miffed. Yoshi is doing exactly what he's supposed to do. He's winning because a bunch of his fans voted for him. What exactly is wrong with that? I mean, what's to prevent any of the fans of the other characters from getting the word out so that the fans of their character will vote? Maybe Yoshi doesn't need to get penalized in future games. Maybe the fans of the other characters need to do like the Yoshi fans did. If you look at the Yoshi portion of the forums, you'll see that the Yoshi fans did an excellent job of getting the word out and coordinating their attacks. That's not unfair. That's smart, and why should Yoshi be penalized just because his fans were smart?

I'll agree that Yoshi hasn't gotten too much better over the Smash series, lol, but I don't play him because he's good, I play him because I like him.

The problem isn't they're playing smart, its that they are essentially turning a popularity contest into a slaughter, which means that no matter how much we Yoshi haters try, we get outnumbered. The Yoshi fans turned this into some sort of Zombie movie, where the last haters are outnumbered and practically hopeless. How would you feel if you were outnumbered hundreds to one, not to mention trying to lay low to avoid being ganged up on.

You moved on? You still come on here just to complain on how the Yoshi voters are winning and you're constantly trying to end everything early. That's not moving on. We're dominating, you don't like it? Deal with it.

No, you can't. They're like dinosaurs...raptors and such with a mind no bigger than a thumb. They hunt in packs, yet march in single file to hide their numbers. ;)

Raptors have the brain the size of your fist. there brain is bigger in relative to their body size(3 feet tall and 6 feet wide(( Jurrassic park is wrong they made the Utahraptor)))

Read some books.

They were more like the Deinonychus, but if it was brain size, I'd go with T-Rex (with a brain the size [and approx. shape] of a football) and if it's brain to size ratio, I'd go with the Troodon (a fellow raptor, with an estimated intelligence of a chicken [dinosaurs did not evolve with very large brains, to do that you have to be small fry instead of hulking beast, which is what mammals were. Once they dominated, Smarts were given to those who didn't reproduce as rapidly {ex: Wild canines, bears, elephants, Wild cats, and the smart population of humans}])

hello Yoshi meat. Face it, to Yoshi haters, this is just like being the last person standing at the end of a Zombie movie. You are better off laying low, and waiting for the next hit and give to try to gang up on Yoshi.

Probably a good reason why we won't really play the next hit and hurt game. We know exactly what will happen the next game. Everyone and their grandmas will hit Yoshi. That's what that whole start a new game BS was going to do.

They shouldn't blamed on non-existing crap and just suck up to defeat.

You do have a good point. I completely forgot about Troodon... Weird thing is plant eaters have a smaller brain size(Stegasaurus' brain size is about the size of a peanut or wallnut depending on the species of Stegasaur) But its probably because of the hunting tactics and intelligence of the meat eaters.

More like the diet itself. a heavy meat diet typically promotes an increase in brain size, while Plants don't grow brains. Humans are part of the family tree that went after a lot of meat, while the part that didn't had smaller brains. There are exceptions, such as Elephants and vegetarians. Alas, despite my concern for the planet, I am very close to going carnivore. To combat how much cows produce, I typically eat chicken.

I am not quite sure what point you are trying to make here in attempting to disassemble my satire of yoshi lovers. I made a statement saying they are like raptors, and are not raptors to every degree. My statement may have been inconsistent in providing one truth that is characteristic of a prehistoric being that has biology based off of recreation and speculation, but that in no way makes the other characteristic I described as another truth holding to said speculation. My statement may have been unclear as whether the descriptions I included were corollaries or not concerning the expansion of the given title "raptor", which may have been on my fault, but it is silly of you to make the assumption (assume makes an *** out of you and me, lolololol, i love that). I guess to further clear up my statement I would like to make note that raptors are believed to not "...march in single file to hide their numbers..." let alone march at all, and that other forum posters are not dinosaurs of any kind.

Perhaps if you were less of a nitpicker, or less conceited you would be less inclined to jump at small details to flex your supposed intellectual superiority produced from your indulgence upon (what I like to dub as) geekdom, and instead address the larger part of said statement that contain some relevance. I'm going repeat with what I said earlier, I'm not quit sure what point you are trying to make with your statement (just in case you didn't get that earlier, or the fact that I'm satiring your nitpicking with my own nitpicking in the previous paragraph).

How about you think a little, reading is useless otherwise ;)

Kirby:0 (well played kirby voters. Well played. He died with honor.)
Yoshi: 140

The winner is... YOSHI!!!

Great job Yoshi voters! We came. We voted. We conquered!

Now, I think it's safe to tell everybody how Yoshi voters were so dominating.

If you already read this part, don't read it again: "It's all a game. Trying to get Kirby into the final two was apart of my plan in the beginning. Which is why I offered to make the pact. And Even though some of ya'll sided against Yoshi, I knew that ya'll would keep Kirby going until the final two. Everyone was focus on the Yoshi fans, so you guys were untouchable. Like I said many times, Kirby's one of my favortie characters and one of my mains. But to keep a limit on things, I did have to stop the pact thread I made in the kirby community, which is why I requested it to be deleted. However, you or someone else probably made another one. XP

I wanted to help Lucario, another one of my mains, but his support was really assaulting the Yoshi voters, so he had to be destroyed. Pikachu, IC as well, then Lucas. I don't really care for them, but I don't hate them. Still the Yoshi voters needed to get rid of them. I knew that once they were destroyed, obivously the fans would die down unless they wanted revenge. And once the Yoshi hater support died down, The huge amount of Yoshi supporters would be and even bigger threat. That worked like a charm. It was like playing a game of checkers. The Yoshi haters and opposers play their part, and we just simply picked their characters off one by one. They tried to hurt Yoshi, but only made it easier for the Yoshi supporters to know who to pick off.

All they had to do to pose a bigger threat was attack the character that wasn't massively supported. They could have got more points instead of assaulting a heavily supported character to only get the same amount of points taken away. If not, more due to the growing support. But They kept playing into the Yoshi supporter's hand. Plus I needed to be sure that no points were lost. So I kept checking on the votes as many times as needed. I didn't want Yoshi or anyone else to lose a unfair point. If we were to win, it'll have to be fair and square."

How here's the real vote giver! Simple and easy. We spread the word of this to the yoshi boards. Not only did we make one, but two of them to support the topic. One grew into a decoy for the non yoshi voters or Yoshi Haters to bombard. The other one is where he had deep plans on how to support Yoshi.

Plus, we spread the word to other voters, Via Personal messenger. I'm suprise none of the other character voters thought of that. We spread the word to others, they spread the word, and so on. We had a whole web of voters! So That's simply what we did. A simple strategy to give us the victory. I'll doubt if anyone, other than Yoshi voters or supporters, would beileve this, due to the Yoshi hate. But it's honestly what we did.
