Gai (B1): 5 Probably my least favorite Buriki chara, actually. Close tie with Takato, though.
Jedah (DS): 9 Excellent boss, and the way he bleeds from his shoulders is too cool. :D
Franco Bash (FF): 9 Wow, another winner. Franco is a force to be reckoned with, and he has a plethora of cool moves. Besides, how many people do YOU know who enjoy breaking bottles on their own heads?
King (KOF): 8 Good, standard, and classic. Amazed she wasn't in 2002, but I don't use her, so it didn't affect me.
Birdie (SFA): 10 I don't think I can say any more. Birdie is one of my favorite grapplers ever.
Nagare Namikawa (PJ): 5 Oooh... Nothing really against the man, but he swims at you as an attack.
Guy (SFA): 9 Cool chara. All the Final Fight charas get good marks with me, though.
Kouryu (LB2): 3 My second least-favorite SNK boss, and my third least favorite boss in any high-profile fighter. What a let down at the end of Gekka. :(
Cyclops (Marvel vs): N/A I'd vote if we were talking about Children of the Atom.. Just thought I'd mention that.
Retsu (SF1): 5 SF 1 version is actually funny to watch, but they could probably whip him in to shape if they brought him back. They have with a lot of other people.

Jedah (DS): 8 - I like his self-sacrificial moves and all, but I have no idea what he's supposed to be. Doesn't stop me from liking him, though.
Franco Bash (FF): 3 - To quote Terry: "Bash? More like 'poof'." Another Haggar design that became even more obvious after he was redrawn for RBS.
King (KOF): 7 - She went from being a cross-dresser to a dyke to just a classy lady. Well whatever she is, she's still more interesting than most of the characters to come out of AoF.
Birdie (SFA): 3 - The only thing I really like about him is that pose where he brushes his hair and it gets all messy.
Nagare Namikawa (PJ): 5 - I believe I've said it before; PJ characters are dull. Watching this guy fight is just plain sad, the way he flops around like a fish.
Guy (SFA): 9 - His gameplay was extremely innovative, and his style... come on, a ninja in sneakers? Hip AND functional! *thumbs up!*
Kouryu (LB2): 7 - This guy was such a cheapass at times I can barely stand to look at him, but his design was tight.
Cyclops (Marvel vs): 5 - YES
Retsu (SF1): 3 - I imagine he could be cool if Capcom redesigned him, but as is, he's got nothing going for him.

Gai (B1): N/A
Jedah (DS): 8 The evil preacher look just works for a DS boss, and Jedah does it to prefection.
Franco Bash (FF): N/A
King (KOF): 9 I've grown to like her over the years. She has a good mix of moves, has a unique style, and has really grown in KOF. I'm glad she is coming back in DC KOF 2k2, and I hope she stays...
Birdie (SFA): 8 another design that has grown on me, and one of my favorite Capcom grapplers (Cause he has the charge I can use, since I'm spotty on 360's). His SFA2 stage is one of the best in the game...
Nagare Namikawa (PJ): 6 Fun comic relief character, but I can't take him seriously. Even in a game as wacked as PJ
Guy (SFA): 8 He's a Ninja with Nike's. Nuff said...:)
Kouryu (LB2): 1 Damn bear should stick to stealing picnic baskets....
Cyclops (Marvel vs): 4 Never really cared for Cyke in the comics, and don't like him in the versus game.
Retsu (SF1): N/A Too long since I've seen the design, but I agree with Rugal that Capcom could shape him up easily enough. They did with Birdie...

Why is it that most of the characters' totals are lower than they were before? Does this fact say something significant about our tastes in fighting game characters?
Gai (B1): N/A-I'll watch the vid later, and maybe revise this score.
Jedah (DS): 10-The laugh, the style, the scythe...BLOOD CONTRACT! There's nothing to not like about this guy.
Franco Bash (FF): 8-I have no idea what compels me to like his design, but I do for some reason. His moves rock, and he's a boxer that has kick moves, which is different.
King (KOF): 1-That voice annoys the utter heck out of me. It's no surprise that her, Blue Mary, and the KoF 98 announcer are the same voice actor. Ugh...
Birdie (SFA): 10-SO innovative, a grappler, and fun as all heck to use. Heh, he combs his hair with a knife.
Nagare Namikawa (PJ): 8-PJ characters rock my world. I was tripped out when I first saw him in action (still am, actually) but I see him as a great addition to the PJ cast.
Guy (SFA): 10-I can't decide who's the better ninja: him or Strider...
Kouryu (LB2): 1-Uber cheap, awful design...I can't find anything to like about this guy.
Cyclops (Marvel vs): N/A
Retsu (SF1): 2-Boring as is, but as has already been stated, he could be great if he's brought back.
Iron D-itude fact 1: Iron D has never played a Goemon game.
Iron D-itude fact 2: Iron D has only seen three episodes of the new TMNT cartoon. He wishes he could see more.

You get my other message? I tried to send you music, but Yahoo won't allow large files. Any other options for me?
Also, you'd better work on that fact one, there. ;D
Actually I was going to check my e-mail in a few minutes, but this message saved me a trip. And blast it, too!
Um...try pipgatsby@bolt.com. This is an account I kinda created accidentally (long story) and haven't even actually used it yet. But I gotta get those tunes.
Thanks again, Rugal.
Oh, and about Goemon, when I was doing the IronD-itude facts this week, I decided to mention a game that I've never played, and for some reason Goemon was the first that came to mind. I've heard good things though. Maybe I will look it up some time.
Edit: On second thought, never mind. I just went to bolt and it's nothing but some teeny bopper place. No e-mail there, though I could have sworn that they game a free e-mail account before...

Gai (B1): NA Seeing as how I will probably never play this game there's no way I can vote.
C'mon, watch the vid with Gai. >_< It should at least give you some impressions. >_< I always thought this poll was based (to a degree, anyway) on the character's design, too.
Yes, I encourage people to vote on the character design. They can vote on a character for any reason. In the case for me with games I never played, the character design is all I have to go off. I realize that there are more aspects to voting but that one is most important to me. So I will vote for Gai based off the character design. I will also use my imagination a bit too. For example if Playmore anounced Gai in SvC tomorrow, interest in the character would increase quite a bit. Then there would be a 2D sprite of him. I would imagine how he would look and act based off his character design. That's what inspires me to vote on the character's I know little about. If others would like to they can if inot that's cool too. This type of voting only applied for SS64, Buriki One, and Plasma Sword characters for me. Every other character I have encountered 1st hand
Whether or not a character design appeals to me certainly affects my feelings but I'm hesitant to use that or second hand information about a game to form any solid opinions. Judging characters, games, and whatnot without ever having played them is a bad habit that I would like to avoid doing too often.

Well, you aren't judging the game, just giving your opinion on how you think the character looks. And again, if anybody wants to see what Gai looks like while fighting, check out the vid I put up (another better one has been completed, but Exodus is out of the country, so I don't know when he'll be able to put my next batch up)
The problem for me is that I find the play style of a character helps judge my opinion of him/her. For example, I thought Marco from Garou was rather boring looking typical Gi glad fighter. Till I played him and enjoyed him and his fighting style. So to be fair, I'd like to play the game to get a full idea of the character...
Though I do appreciate the videos you make, as they help me select future games I'd like to play (Come on Playmore, you know you want to release Bruiki One for the PS2...)

So, here I go:
Gai (B1): 4 A bit plain design, plus a general lack of knowledge about his gameplay (Even if I've seen the vids, Rugal!), makes him a meh character.
Jedah (DS): 9.5 He's one of the coolest bosses I've ever met. Original moves, great design, better attitude, great voice, blody supers, uber-powerfull storyline-wise...
Franco Bash (FF): 3 Franco Yawn.
King (KOF): 4 I've never been a fan of her design, and never picked her (except random pick, of course). Also, my indiference turned into hate when I fighted tons of Kings and her easy combos in KOF2000. She doesn't get less score because she's a classic, after all.
Birdie (SFA): 7.5 Great design, and that awesome SFA2 stage. And his attitude. Many of his animations are pure comedic gold.
Nagare Namikawa (PJ): ?? Not enough knowledge of him.
Guy (SFA): 6 I like his design, I like his attitude, but either he's a very weak character, or I suck badly using him. And that frustrates me a lot. Maki is way better gameplay wise.
Kouryu (LB2): 3 Cheap and boring. Not a very good combination.
Cyclops (Marvel vs): 5 In the comics, I hate-ignore him. In the games, he's a interesting character.
Retsu (SF1): 5 A neutral score for a character with potential if re-designed like so many others.
