For the record, if the contest had been legit, Kahn would have probably performed even worse than he did today. Remember that it was RAMM who eliminated Sephiroth, which wouldn't have happened without the mass voting. And lord knows if it were all legit Kahn wouldn't stand a chance against Sephiroth, who he would have been facing if not for the RAMM push.



Let's not allow fear to determine how we handle ourselves here, shall we? Fear no man and no anonymous legion. Anybody can do anything. Sometimes they're funny. Sometimes they're harmless pranksters. Sometimes they're troublesome meddlers. Sometimes they're vile.

But all things considered, watching what you say to avoid the ire of anonymous is worse than dealing with whatever they decide to do, if anything. Intimidation only works if you let it.

But, seriously. It's just a stupid contest. Darth Vader is going to win anyway.

Hoping for Jade or Sareena, though it does look Sindel-ish (wordsmith? )

Anyway, it's exciting nonetheless, unless ole Mr. Boon is pranking us again. Too bad Kahn didn't win...oh well. Maybe he'll give us a free-bee =)

Yeah, I'm hoping Ed's feeling generous and decides "well, they did their best" and gives us something to soothe the sting of defeat.

Don't really count on it tho... he already posted much on twitter, but nothing about the female.

Am I the only one who doesn't really care at all about this? Aside from the asinine nature of online popularity contests for game characters I mean... it'd be nice to see who it is, sure, but I think it's just as rewarding to keep it under wraps until it's time. Hell, Boon probably posted it knowing Kahn wouldn't win, just to get us all foaming at the mouth. The guessing games are always the funnest part about the impending release of an MK game, so... I think things worked out perfectly.

Let's not call it fear. Let's just call it reluctance to deal with a bunch of weaboo, virgin, hackers.

Noobde: People keep telling me that. What is 4chan?

Somewhere right now, a man is screaming. :(

Bah. So called "anonymous" people have gone to jail over things like that.

Oh shit, I didn't even think about Sheeva.

as noted in the prior thread, i el oh el @ all the people who are not capable of noticing skin tone. sindel, sonya, etc., ARE NOT DARK SKIN TONE. the skin on the leg is clearly a match for someone like jade, tanya, or an entirely new female.

How can that be sheeva? Look at her small feet...

I don't think Sheeva's big, two-toed half-dragon feet could fit into that small boot. Also, Sheeva's legs are far more muscular.

I personally dont think Khan losing is a big deal.

Also to be honest, I voted for RAMM

Crow, quote or tell me once where I thought it the RAAM victory was legitimate, please. . . you can't. All I was simply saying is that no matter what Khan had 0 chance, as well as all the other villans on that stupid poll.

. . .and if you want to get all technical like you do, if Khan DID win it wouldn't have been legitimate either, there are members in this very thread talking about having 6 pages open voting over and over, and voting over 50 times. So it really doesn't matter what "that site" or any other site does or did now does it?

Sheeva's also generally not a fan of...well, clothes.

it's Ruby !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boon is a lucky man to never have experienced 4chan

So this may come off as noobish but what is 4chan?

Well to be completely fair, if the contest had gone untainted Sephiroth would have won this match because he'd have crushed RAAM in route to crushing Shao Kahn. But if the match between these two was legit, there's no way Kahn loses.

Ed Boon being sarcastic? No way.

Anyway, looks like Sareena, hopefully it's Sareena, let's see Sareena.

It looks like something quickly whipped up in photoshop. I think it's just a joke.

4chan sounds like the biggest Tekken-fan club on earth... But Raam isn't chinese or japanese? SO why they wanted to vote for Raam so much?

Or it's genuine concept art.



...

I'm now convinced that Sincubus is putting on an act.

Let's avoid talking about this group. After they ruined the lives of a couple of children, I have nothing but disdain for them.

Back on topic to the character teaser. Anyone think Boon will be generous and help soothe the sting of defeat with a dramatic new reveal? That would turn my frown upside-down.
