    I picked Hong Qigong. I think he's cooler than the rest.

    Why isn't WCY on the list.

    I think HYS has so much more to his character than anyone else.

    Actually I find HYS a bit eccentric.

    That, coupled with his genius is what makes him so interesting.

    Why nobody's voting for Yideng?

    And yittz, why didn't you include WCY in the poll?

    HYS is more interesting, but HQC is more likeable.

    And yes, why isnt WCY in the poll.

    Well there's nothing very fascinating about him is there.... he is a good character but bland.

    Ou Yang Feng: intelligent, determined, resourceful, has a great tolerance, and won't let his pride get the better of him. He is also very nice to his kids (especially YG).

    HYS is too over his head for me, YD too weak. I like H7G, but OYF better.

    The reason I didnt include WCY and LCY is we didnt really get to see their character first hand. Much of what we know about them (little compared to other greats) is from another person's mouth.

    H7G is my fav great, closely followed by HYS...

    i don't know why, but i've always like H7G more than the other greats... i've never felt anything for WCY or LCY... i mean, they were gone long before LoCH...

    I voted for the North Beggar.

    He's very likable, patriotic and very funny too. You can talk to him as friends, you can play with him like children, or even you can depend on him as if he's your dad.

    Yes, H7G has a good personality, quite charismatic, someone easy to talk to. Quite the opposite to HYS.

    Default Favourite of the Four Greats (Legend of Condor Heroes)?

    If I had to pick one, the honour would go to East Heretic. North Beggar coulda been a contender, but I give where credit is credit due. Amongst the four, old Heretic Huang was just a classic badass who didn't play by the rules. Kinda reminds me of one of those 70s Jack Nicholson rebel characters.
    Opinions anyone?

    Yes, I go with East Heretic as well.

    His character is one in which I think most of us would love to have. Yeah, so what, you have a problem with that? What are you going to do about it? Would you not love to have this personality to stand up against all the bullies back in elementary school.
