How about THIS:

Okay, now I'm just throwing names out there randomly.

You're right. I'll keep some confidence in Mephisto, it's a good argument. I just think it's strange that, before, when people would guess correctly, he'd give us a score, or something. Or say "Page 39 of GFAQs!" Now, we're like "Yeah, definitely Mephisto", but he keeps posting clues instead of throwing us even the slightest hint that we're on the right path.

About the Gem tweets, I don't know anything about that show, and I do this while at work all day, and I can't have youtube with sound on. So, I haven't the slightest about them in any way.
Exactly. Much of the reason people's guesses have gone to shit is because they're dying to find some connection between x tweet and Sigma or what have you. This is why, if you've been keeping up, SRK has been absolute shit for the past 20 pages or so.GuardianE said:
When we've gotten this close, and we have multiple candidates infront of us already, why introduce more that satisfy 1 of the criteria but not the rest that we've compiled so far?
I just feel as if we've compiled this much so far, these are our best bets without getting complex again. lupinko introducing references to other hints only adds to the mass confusion. And with none of them confirmed along the way, we just jump between tweets trying to scramble together what we can. If I was in his spot, I'd put some relative closure on this and move on, because relying on us to give ourselves closure is impossible when someone is always coming out of left field trying to justify Red Arrhemer.Karsticles said:

I'm in charge of the thread on GFAQs though, and I'm also a poster on SRK that has been leading people to Mephisto.
Lupinko already said it's not Daredevil.
*nods* Indeed. That's why, even when we have it, things get sidetracked. Someone puts together a good argument, a lot of people say "oh wow, that's convincing", and then there's a silence. Suddenly someone pops in and makes a random guess: "omg, Megaman's dog rush was red - teh megamanz!?", and then people forget that we made progress.

Well, you know what I mean. The internet is not just Gaf, Gfaqs, and SRK. People are following him for clues. He shouldn't just stop once the character's been guessed correctly by part of the community.
No, I mean that Red Devil-type clues could possibly be referring to Elektra, as she's Daredevil's female counterpart.Karsticles said:I'm in charge of the thread on GFAQs though, and I'm also a poster on SRK that has been leading people to Mephisto.

1. Red
2. Male
3. Badass
And I said Carnage due to him making the top ten and he has a really good mini that recently came out and a new one due in December.
Well, magnificent seven is the name of an old western modeled after Seven Samurais.
May be off track or right.

I'm not saying stop, I just wish that the score system would return. Remember when he did that?
Is that really a "meme", though? Moderators names being red isn't really a meme here, is it? I'm still a pretty young GAFer.

Venom might be more popular, but fact is, the "classic" Venom, 90s Venom, Eddie Brock. Is not Venom anymore. He's Anti-Venom now.
Venom is now hosted by Flash Thompson. Before that, he was hosted by Mac Gargan who essentially turned out to be Carnage in Black.
Carnage on the other hand recently returned to his original host, Cletus Kasady. He also, as someone else mentioned, is due to receive a mini. Believe me, I hate Carnage with a passion, but I can see why they would include him instead of Venom to take over Venom's MvC2 moveset (with adaptions obviously). Simply because the current Venom is not going to be like that. Thompson Venom essentially is a commando with superhuman strength/agility/etc. And Brock is Anti-Venom. So.

Do people ever say a mod is "being red" when they ban people? This is an interesting idea.
My problem with Bishop is that people compiled all of this other evidence for Bishop out of the disconfirmation of Cable. We were told explicitly that hint was to disconfirm someone by Chibi. So just because Cable was disconfirmed, people started riding high on Bishop being in from the same set of hints. TBH all the Bishop stuff seemed baseless to me from the start.GuardianE said:
And I also thought "someone very red" referred to the character itself, but I mean that can go any way.

The original tweet. Reddest motherfucker. Doesn't sound like damn female.
Venom is bogged down to people will bitch if not Eddie venom.
And each Venom fights differently.
Flash venom would be jumping around using guns and grenades to demolish the opponent as well as other typical venom tools where Gargan venom would fight like a mix between Logan and Hullk.
Issue with Venom.

It wasn't just a gaf meme.Karsticles said:

An Imdb prank really.
Still didn't originate in Gaf though.
This was my argument for Elektra + Wolverine O-Face GAF meme:fludevil said:
Elektra
"sup bitches, all i got 2 say is dat dis is one reddest motherfucker, gaddaymn
non-parental advisory version: someone very red"
- Elektra's traditional costume is famously red.
look the only hint is someone very red, there may be something else thrown to add to it, but that was it really, lolsrk"
- He suggests that in addition to the previous two tweets, there was one other piece of information across the weekend that hints at the red character.
By the way, that meme belongs to Gaf.
If they know which Gaf meme it is."
- The first is a tweet by Lupinko, suggesting that a meme on a message board will crack the code to the identity of the red character. Likely GAF because he said "believe," which was only confirmed by him posting the second line on GAF.
- This meme could possibly be the Wolverine O-Face meme on GAF, one of the most famous. It consists of Wolverine's face on this comic-book cover being photoshopped into image macros everywhere for comedic purposes.
- On the ComicVine page for the Wolverine comic book issue, it lists The Hand as a team that makes an appearance in the issue and presumably the series as well. Elektra has been the leader of The Hand.
- For context, Niitsuma once explained that each of the stages in MvC3 were related to one of the characters in the game. "The Hand's Hideout" is in the game, but no Daredevil or Elektra series representatives are in the roster. Rumours also around the release of MvC3 swirled that Elektra was cut alongside Frank West and would make it in via DLC. Niitsuma later came out and explained that Frank West was cut due to hardware and technical complications revolving around his moveset in the MvC3 engine, leading people to believe Elektra was cut to even up sides. [Source]
- A disconfirmation that the meme he is referring to is the planeintosunset.jpg meme, in reply to someone who suggested that was the meme.
So yeah Kevin spacey was too good again, Jennifer anniston was smokin hot and lol Colin farrel was great, to think he was also bullseye"
- Freakazoid could potentially be a reference to Bullseye, who is known to go mental times, who is directly referenced in the second, later tweet. Bullseye is known to be one of Elektra's main rivals.
- One of these two, or both could be the trinket of extra information about the red character that lupinko was referring to.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt59rjadYeI&feature=related "
- Two Bruce Campbell videos, Bruce Campbell was knwon to be signed to Elektra Records. [Source]
- These videos could also be the trinkets of information dropped throughout the weekend.
- This video features red ninjas, much like Elektra is. [Source]
- Another potential trinket of information.
- This is possibly an indication that it is not Daredevil. Daredevil was also for a period of time, leader of The Hand. This would clear up any ambiguity in references to The Hand, as instead of referring to Daredevil, they would likely be referring to Elektra.

I'm not happy about any of these, so I'm not even sure why I'm following.
Doc Ock sounds like fun, Daredevil would be interesting. Still hoping for Strange, Iron Fist, Vision.
Ahh, if the Bishop stuff was tied to disproving Cable, then no worries.
Again, Daredevil is very red and has horns. Anyway he doesn't fit?
edit: I'm not saying youre wrong, but Elektra would be a mighty waste.
crimsonspider89 said:
Motherfuckers are generally male, actually, though it's not a hard and fast rule.
Anyway, there's zero reason to speculate Carnage outside of a hodgepodge of random facts unrelated to lupinko's tweets. Venom is another issue entirely, but we haven't seen anything remotely conclusive about him either.

People are saying that Daredevil was deconfirmed by lupinko.

Obviously, "red" is relating to red heads, and as we all know, nurses are bad motherfuckers.

Night Nurse confirmed:
I personally think its going to be either carnage or bishop.
Bishop makes sense because we need to get a black guy into marvel period. How have we gone this long without a black guy in MvsC series.
Carnage makes sense from a fan's wishlist perspective. I think either venom or carnage is going to end up making the final roster of MvsC3 either now or later as DLC or updated version. I imagine venom will be retooled if we get him, or if it's carnage I'm thinking (hoping) he's got a different playstyle from past venoms.

Once is enough for a character with projectile hypers, beams, air projectiles, a teleport, several anti air attacks(think the purple guitar column and his spinning flames) and a power up hyper.GuardianE said:
It'd be understandable if we were talking about some bottom of the barrel characters like Arthur or mid tier characters like Spencer, but Dante is already a force to be reckoned with even without fucked up juggles.
Either change would do it for me, but the thing is that it takes a while for hitstun to take effect and it might not do enough to mitigate damage on short combos he could use. Either way, I don't care that much about his damage.GuardianE said:
I already stated above that Dante has way more tools than any of my characters. He has a fantastic AA assist that shuts down air games, a power up hyper, projectiles, beams, multiple AA attacks, fast low pokes, great damage, a safe S air attack nearly on par with dive kicks in spammability(yeah I made that word up lol) and better X-factor bonuses.GuardianE said:
He is not that far ahead of an A class character like Ammy, but he certainly has enough going for him that he could have that dumb juggle fixed at least.
I seriously can't imagine how the hints point to anyone else. Mephisto seems so obvious to me and most other people.enzo_gt said:

This is one of the first things I thought when I saw the tweet days ago. It seemed strange that he would refer to a female as a motherfucker lol.crimsonspider89 said:
Did anyone make the link between his "I'm certain that you would know" tweet and the Jem song "You Already Know?" (which has the lyrics "I'm certain you would know" in them) Perhaps a hint that we had previously speculated about this character or just a hint that this relates to previous hints. Anyway I think the Mighty Max thing might still be the most important.

Yes, Dante has more tools than any of your characters (I play Morrigan too). There's no argument who is a better character. But I'd argue that Capcom simply didn't give Hsienko and Morrigan enough tools/damage. Dante is not inherently broken, and I'd venture to say that Amaterasu is farther ahead than Dante in terms of tiers (I hate that dog). The guy doesn't need major nerfing. Hsienko was simply made too weak for a game filled with powerful characters.

Broken teleports refers more to wesker than anyone else, broken dive kick refers to Wolverine's safe as fuck shenanigans and broken X-factor chip applies to a lot of characters, especially Dormammu who would otherwise be one of the most well done heavy characters in any fighting game in my opinion.
Dante approaches cheap because of how safe some of his stuff is, how good his recovery is off of air S and how crazy good his combos connect even if you inexplicably end up floating behind him. He is not broken and I never said he was.
Edit: The only character who could qualify as broken is DP phoenix. The matchup is completely in her favor against specific characters, but outside of her even the worst characters stand chance of winning against the ones that are popular at the moment. Dante's retarded juggle is fucked, but outside of that he can be dealt with.
