Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 207
From: Sir Bormun | Posted: 8/19/2005 12:10:12 AM | Message Detail
Analyzing Pac-Man's past matches...

He never gets the board vote, so the fact that he's winning now is bad for Ocelot, who is a favorite on the board (isn't he undefeated in Leon's season battle?).

Pac-Man is decent during the middle of the night, but his best time seems to be the morning... once the afternoon rolls around, he's lousy, and he's alright at night. With all this in mind...

I think Pac takes it 55-45. Out there guess of the day.

Ocelot lost almost 3% to Wily after the first hour of their match. I'm guessing Pac-Man is likely as good with the day vote, so yeah...

Against Bowser, Ocelot did okay with the morning vote and the second night vote.

I guess the board favoured Pac-Man? Ocelot had a nice little comeback right there.

Well well, I guess Ocelot wasn't the huge board vote favorite I thought he was. He may be able to beat Pac Man yet.

I'm surprised at Yoshi getting more bracket support than Mega Man in the first round.

How close do you guys think their third round match will be?

Does anyone think that Ocelot's pic is screwing him over?

Definitely, and I'm not even talking about any possible strength discrepancy between young/old Ocelot. His picture now is just so drab and boring; he looks more like a part of the background than Pac-Man's opponent.

Pac Man has the HUGE picture advantage, I really almost voted for him just because he's so much more charismatic than Ocelot is right there. Maybe that picture advantage caused the board to "pity vote" him more.

Not close enough for Yoshi to win, but hey Nintendo is strong this year. I expect an impressive showing, probably around 60-40.

Looks like I may have spoke too soon about Pac-Man. Though I still think he has the edge.

Pic? All I see is a vibrant Pac-Man next to a giant brown swirl.


Exactly. This is like a barely visible splotch against a giant glowing yellow orb.

People were discussing that Pac-Man could win this match as soon as this pic was released. I was very surprised to see the Oracle picks so decidedly in favor of Ocelot when I browsed around a little while ago.

charmander makes a point. The board may vocally love Ocelot more, but Pac Man clearly has his fans.

By the way, does anyone have a decent definition for 20XXDF or can I just write that the characters all seem to be overrated by the 2004 stats?

I think Yoshi will do better than expected on MM, but MM will still win handily.

You mean why we implented 20XXDF (because Snake looked really underrated) or its consequences (aka Frog and the gang/Zero being really high)?

I get the feeling today is going to be one of those days where we go through 4 or 5 stats topics.

awesome.

Ocelot should extend this lead slowly until the day vote kicks in. let's hope pac-man can stay close enough.

If it means Fodder Fluctuation Factor, I buy it completely. Just because some characters get more anti-votes than others is enough reason to believe it.
