Star Wars: This IS Madness

[Internetlad]

yoda will spank obi, it'll be artoo or yoda vs Vader. If somehow obi beats yoda (not gonna happen, but a what if scenario) then artoo is a shoe-in.

I personally want to see artoo vs Vader for the simple fact of how ludacris that fight would be, but I think there's a good chance that Yoda will take it.

Just pisses me off they didn't go with Alec Guinness Obi.

the estate of alec guinness probably didn't want them using his likeness. Guinness always regretted doing these films. He only did them because the studio doubled his initial salary offer. Basically he sold out on what he considered "fairy tale rubbish"
"

I think Yoda's badass level increased significantly after watching him fight Dooku in the prequels. So I am pretty sure Yoda wil take it.

[Internetlad]

chewbacca can go yiff in a corner.

[Michael]

Aweee Yeeee... Yoda FTW!


Tough choice between R2 and Chewie for me... hmmmm


I am going to call this now:


Yoda vs Fett for the final with Yoda winning!

[noisyturtle]

In an actual fight Chewie would likely win. Always let the Wookie win.

[Michael]

Yeah, but this is just a popularity vote =/




Still, it's going to be real close between them, I bet.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN JABBA THE HUTT LOST?

You mean the fatass who got choked out by a princess in a bikini wasn't voted as the biggest baddy of all time?

No.. Lando is pimpin'    but Jabba is an ACTUAL pimp.

[Michael]

No.. Lando is pimpin'    but Jabba is an ACTUAL pimp.

No. Jabba is a slave ownder. Lando is a pimp.

Slave owner is basically Pimp++

all experienced flesh traffickers know this. 

[Internetlad]

artoo is goin' all the way.

Even if he does beat yoda, Vader is going to win overall.

idk... kids are completely pussified these days,, they might like the cozy R2, over gimp-Vader.

[Michael]

It will be Fett vs Yoda. Yoda will win overall.


Wanna put money on it?

Kinda.  Even though I voted Fett, I know it's Yoda v Vader and it will be the closest to a tie that any have been

[Internetlad]

I was surprised chewie edged in so close to artoo.

I guarantee vader will beat boba. If it was boba vs either yoda or artoo in the finals, boba would be going down there too.

Look at the brackets fett has been in so far. Jengar (who?) Jango (basically the same guy except the prequel version, and he didn't fly himself into the sarlacc pit.) and the emperor (who he beat by the slimmest margin thus far, 53% to 47%)

no way fett's going to the finals, vader mops the floor with him in every regard. I think it was a given that the top bracket is supposed to beat the bottom bracket (obi, Yoda, Han, Luke all on top, leia, droids, clone wars cartoon characters on bottom) but I'm thinking artoo has a decent chance. it'll be less than 40%-60% win or lose on the light side. I think there will be a much wider spread with vader/boba.

[Michael]

Vader is not more popular than Fett by any margin. Like I said, put your money where your mouth is

That vader beats fett? You're on!

how much are you willing to bet on it? Cash? Caps? a Humiliation?

Loser has to take a picture dressed as leia?

[Michael]

Sure, if Vader wins I will make you a cap. If Fett wins you will "_____________"?

[Internetlad]

I dunno, throw some ideas out there. I don't really have a lot of specialized skills so I can't make you anything. I could put up cash, gift a game on steam of relative value or do a humiliation of that's up your alley.

Throw some ideas out. What do you think a custom keycap is worth?

EDIT this is the extent of my 15 minutes in mspaint prowess. Something not unlike (the attachment) if I win? doesn't have to be so fancy, though.

[jdcarpe]

I called it. Yoda vs. Vader.

Yoda is taking this s**t.

[tjcaustin]

I called it. Yoda vs. Vader.

Yoda is taking this s**t.

I still think it's going to end up being the closest margin of any of the votes.

Vader is not more popular than Fett by any margin. Like I said, put your money where your mouth is

Be glad no one took your bet, you'd be making a large number of keycaps.

Vader was more popular than Fett by a *wide* margin.

[Michael]

I underestimated the power of the new generation of SW fans

[Michael]

I called it. Yoda vs. Vader.

Yoda is taking this s**t.

Well I called yoda to be in the final and the winner a day ago


I just didn't think Vader would be as popular vs fett

[noisyturtle]

Knew it would be Vader vs someone. Voting Vader FTW.

[Michael]

Knew it would be Vader vs someone. Voting Vader FTW.

Vader, even if by actual force power and not popularity vote, could not beat Yoda. Yoda FTW

Not voting for a 900 year old wrinkled green sock puppet with a speech impediment. The bald asthmatic gimp with a penis helmet is the obvious better choice.

[Buffo]

Yoda vs. Vader, as i thought. But R2 vs. Vader would have been funnier ;-)

I voted Vader 

[Internetlad]

ARTOO NUUUUUUUUUUUU!

Didn't think the spread would be NEAR that wide. . . But yoda vs vader is the way it should be.

Vader will take it handily, probably 66-33 over yoda.

[Buffo]

By tthe way, what tells me the "4/9" in the middle of the screen?

That is the end date, in American. 9 APR in other words.

[daerid]

How could anybody seriously think anybody but Vader would win?

[Internetlad]

it did play out very differently than I had thought.  Chewie going further than Han, Tarkin getting the axe in the first round.  . . A lot of the brackets WERE stacked, though. Jabba made it to the third round by competing against two guys i've never even heard of (probably from the cartoon, possibly from the prequels)

[Michael]

Pretty massive loss for Vader. Giggity... giggity....




60/40 Yoda win

[noisyturtle]

This is bull**** and I call shenanigans. Obvious rigged bracket was obviously rigged. No one likes Yoda, not even all them dead padwans. Recount! Recount! What about all the people who were over seas or sick and didn't get to vote?

[jdcarpe]

I bet Florida had something to do with this.

Hanging chads!

[Internetlad]

When I was trying to vote the mouse cursor kept moving itself over to yoda, and I heard a buddy saw some Jedi hanging out near his computer when he went to vote. . .

Seriously though, that's horse ****. I didn't even bother voting for vader because I figured it would be such a blowout.

That's probably what happened, everybody who was going to vote for vader figured "Oh, there's no point, he's going to spank yoda back to dagobah." and didn't bother, then yoda won.

Democracy is dumb.
