Losing, its a 2 day voting, and if all the lurkers that showed up for Buggy shows up here.. thats another 200 or so votes still floating. :)
I voted Luffy, and expected a steamroll.. and so far my expectations have been proven.
People should of voted Buggy. XD - Luffy would be winning, but it would of been closer. :P

Your post was even more boring. If you're going to complain, at least be FLASHY about it!

Voted Zoro, but Luffy obviously has this in the bag. Better luck next time, Marimo.
@robbybevard:
I'm cool with that if she is.
But as I already noted, Chrissie, Vanessa, Satsuki and Taboo are all on my awesome list. I'll hang with any one of them if invited.Too late. Both she and Chrissie are part of my Harem. You can ask them yourself.
-
So when's the crowning ceremony?
-
LUFFY FOR THE WIN!

Zoro will sacrifice his life for his nakama…Thats all...anything to add ?_
Yes, here's a few:
-
He thinks of the larger battle as well as the small fights within it. EL is probably the best example of this, where the minute that he regains consciousness after being rescued by Kokoro, he climbs up the steps to get a better view of the Buster Call and of Luffy's fight, and to look for Franky's crew. And when Soge suggests that they try to go back to help Luffy fight, Zoro gives him some plausible "big picture" reasons why that wouldn't be a wise idea. Thinking of the larger picture is also why he's not able to relax (even though everyone else is) until several days after they return to Water 7.
-
He knows that life can be complicated, that not all enemies are evil and that alignments can shift over time – for good examples of this, see his talk with Tashigi about bounty hunters in Loguetown, as well as what he says to T-Bone after their fight on the way to EL.
-
He's a "reliable presence" – that's a phrase taken directly from one of the guide books (I think it was "Yellow"). In other words, Luffy assumes that as long as Zoro is with the rest of the crew, they'll be fine -- that he (Luffy) doesn't have to worry about them. This line from Skypia reinforces that idea. It's when Luffy stumbles over the unconscious bodies of Robin, Choppy, Wiper, "Old Guy" and Zoro (Translation credit: Stephen)
Luffy: ZORO!!!!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING, MAN?!!!
If you were here...
Then how could this have happened...?!!- He understands when to take commands and when to fight them. When Luffy tells him to save Nami (at Arlong Park) and Smoker (at Alabasta), Zoro grumbles and protests initially, but he ultimately follows orders and saves them. He follows orders to save Hachi, too. The most famous/notorious example of Zoro contesting an order is of course when he threatens to leave the crew unless Luffy gets an apology from Usopp. On the surface, Zoro's demand may seem like a cruel joke, but on a deeper level, it's a way literally/symbolically remind the crew (Usopp in particular) that Luffy is the captain, and that disobeying the captain carries consequences, and that if you disobey, you have to also be willing to accept those consequences.
What else? Oh, yes, one more:
- He cares about his crewmates – he just doesn't show it as obviously as the others do. But it's evident in his actions: catching Robin when she falls after being electrocuted by Ener ; saving Nami from Mr.1 ; holding a bruised and bloody Choppy in his arm after discovering him in Skypiea ; fighting against Ryuma for Brook ; being the first to call a temporary cease-fire in their ongoing "alpha fight" so that he and Sanji can cooperate and defeat Hamburg, Big bun, etc in the Groggy Ring ; telling Sanji (in EL) that he thinks Usopp is strong enough to survive on his own, and then a few chapters later, smiling up at Soge as Soge plays a crucial role in saving Robin:
http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/420/04/
And probably the best example – just as he's about to fall over in a faint after defeating Mr.1, his final thought isn't "hot damn, I just defeated an assassin and cut metal!", it's: (Credit for translation: Stephen)
Zoro: {I wonder how... they're doing...
Did Nami manage to get away...?!
I hope nobody died... I wanna know what's going on...}So yeah, there we go.
And see, I didn't even have to resort to mentioning booze, bleeding, Kuina or Kuma.
Vote Zoro!

i vote for Zorro!!
wait!? i still can´t vote ! DAMN!Next year's tourney will be here sooner than you think, so hold that thought, eh?
-
Vote Zoro! He's so much cooler than Luffy.
-
this is crap next time all the SH votes will be count for each vote 50%
-
It's not about winning anymore – we all knew way back on page three or so that Zoro couldn't pull a win with this kind of crowd.
Now it's about putting up a good fight until we can't.
(As to be expected, eh?)And the thing is, we are giving all we got for our beloved Marimo, no matter the situation!
-
I don't really get the complaining about the Strawhats in general. When you think about it, Buggy and Bon Kurei were the only two that showed that they can compete with someone of Zoro's popularity. Without the Strawhats, Buggy and Bon Kurei are the new Luffy and Zoro. Nothing changes, really. At least with the Strawhats included, there's more competition in that top tier of popularity.
Next year, Luffy will have won one of these (and the most recent at that) and lots of people wont vote for him based on that reason alone.
-
I don't really get the complaining about the Strawhats in general.
Me neither. So instead of seeing it as two strawhats fighting for the crown, let's see it as two supernovas instead.
Go Zoro and Luffy! Avenge Law and Drake and Bonney and the others!
-
Zoro all the way.

That's it then! Everyone actually wanted to vote Zoro, but thinking he was the captain, the accidentally voted Luffy instead. Zoro's the real winner here! :ninja:
-
This was a hard choice for me, and even tho I know Luffy is probably gonna win this… ZORO!
-
How come we can't see who voted for whom?
-
so we can rig the vote, stupid.

This is rubber:
I'd rather have the marimo.
-
Well . . . he always gets where he needs to be going . . . eventually. :happy:
-
Zoro jumped from 178 to 197 in like 10 seconds. What the hell?
Maybe some mod is trying to make things more interesting.. -
It's probably a side-effect of the database problems the forum has been having this afternoon. I'll have e1n look into it.
-
My vote is to Zoro just for the hell of it :P
