You're just salty.

No, it just makes the COTM competition look bad IMO.  However Melvana is one of my best friends in the entire community so I'm happy for him that he won.

I do have to agree with MC2 on this, regardless nice to see Melv get the spotlight on his character... and I just realized I never voted...could have saved Punk. :<

Admittedly it does strike me as a bit....stupid that MFG prefers joke characters over serious, well made characters, but at least this one is by two people who know what they're doing.

Because eventually, ya get pretty bored of "serious" characters, joke characters provide WAY more entertainment :D

I don't even "hate" joke characters, but this month was almost 99% joke characters and it got very old very fast to me.  A good joke lasts a long time, but an ok one lasts like a week before it stops being funny.

Joke character, serious character, green character, purple character; they're all characters and all appeal to certain audiences. If you can't get over the fact that most of the people who voted liked a joke character, then that's your issue.

Various joke characters as candidates and a joke character winning doesn't make the whole COTM competition look bad. A joke character winning doesn't mean that joke characters are played out; it doesn't mean that other people besides you don't find entertainment or humor in the character; it just means that a joke character was preferred by most of the voters.

A joke character is nothing more or less than a compilation of thoughts and ideas, just like any other "serious" character, so a joke character definitely deserves the same respect as any 'serious" character. Your attitude is completely wrong. You are completely wrong.

Well 99 is kind of an exaggeration, and i'd agree with you if these joke character were so well-made. It isn't just about the laughs, it's about how much fun a character is to play, and joke characters, when made right, are some of the most fun. Shang Tsung, regardless of the fact that he is a joke character, is one of the most well coded characters up here.

Apparently "99% percent" is the new "2 chars out of 50", just like "a month or two of retirement" is the new "I'll be back tomorrow". :innocent:

To who would the competition look bad to anyway? IMT :???: Mugen Motherland :???: Mugen Infantry? :P

pls

Motherland is a dead forum. It recently became a bot host because no one goes there anymore (Not even the mods).

Why do you complain?? Joke characters are the new MUGEN fashion in last months, so I didn't surprise about Shang Tsung won... or any of jokes made in this month, IMO

At first I thought it meant that "oh he thinks joke characters can't be well made."

Then I read closer. FOR SHAME.

Joke chars are the only thing that would be interesting to check even if you quit mugen and worthy to DL once you get bored of playing with it so I'll say aswell...

This is an interesting point since I only keep mugen for playing with joke characters as well.

troubleman and shadow sumou are overrated. by that i mean that the fact that they got close to winning is totally justified because they're fucking awesome.

but again thanks. i'mma contemplate what portrait should be used in the frame, it's gotta be waaaaaaacky

and by that i mean it's probably gonna be shang from the movie or something

sooner or later, everybody puts up with xiangfei
