Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 183
From: Heroic Mario | Posted: 8/6/2005 7:15:22 AM | Message Detail
I have serious confidence that Vercetti will be able to manage a comeback given that we're just getting started with the morning vote and Vercetti only has about 900 votes to combeack from.

Go, Vercetti!

Kefka's seriously bleeding out right now. He may not have enough of a cushion to stand on to withstand Tommy's morning blitz.

I doubt Vercetti will build a sizeable lead, per say, but Kefka's uber-heavy board vote is out of the way...I think Kefka'll come up just short; I think the winner (who I hope/think will be Vercetti) will win with about 400 votes, myself.

I picked Vercetti to win, but slowly, I lost confidence with him, and before the match started, I had lost it all. My brother picked Kefka, and was pretty confident in him. I wouldn't mind the moron making a comeback... but I do like Kefka way more than that GTA piece of crap.

Well, I hope you're happy GTA, I picked both of your losers to win, and they didn't. Ugh....

I only say that because with characters like vercetti there are a lot of people who play GTA and might be indifferent to vercetti but vote for him over a funny looking clown they've never heard of before, but might vote fr said clown if he had a badass angel pic.

I'm not saying that it's cheating, I'm just throwing it out there . I'd probably call it cheating if he kept doing it at the same 15/30/10/whatever minute intervals consistently, but I don't think he is.

FACT or FICTION: Angel Kefka would have guaranteed a win against Tommy Vercetti today.

FACT

On a related note, am I the only one who thinks Vercetti gets anti-votes?

1) Kite. This is just conjecture, but I only found his placement suspiciously high. I mean, no one other than Iron Grunty ever talks about .hack and Kite would get 46.69% against Vyse, and beat Crash?

2) DK. If you don't adjust Vivi, doesn't DK drop between 2003 and 2004? That could be easily attributed to an overperformance against Vercetti.

3) Max Payne. Max Payne had a suspiciously large increase* last year, when he faced Vercetti, when if anything Vercetti should have SFF'd him.



*Or at the least, his decrease was significantly less extreme than Vercetti's
