20AM A Winner is Link!
The winner of the third annual GameFAQs Character Battle is Link from the Legend of
Zelda series, who beat out Final Fantasy VII's Cloud in a heated battle. The final
unoffical rankings (not including tie-breakers) are online, and you can view the final
bracket as well. Official winners should be announced in the next week or two.

Oh yeah, before some fat motherfucker comes in and says, "Why should I give a crap," note that I don't care if you do or not, this is still getting posted as it does every year =)</div>
