Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 236
From: Lopen | Posted: 9/7/2005 1:06:43 AM | Message Detail
It's a little ahead of Ganon/Samus, though. So I guess that makes it look not as bad.

Don't ask me why I got Seph/Vergil... I just saw it was way behind most of these matches so I grabbed a Spring match.

Master Chief's path to the championship: Round 3: (2) Crono.
Halo 2 + 7 vote loss vs Frog = 7 vote win vs Crono
From: Kaxon | Posted: 9/7/2005 1:07:09 AM | Message Detail
These vote totals are abysmal right now. It's behind Sephiroth/Vergil at this point...

It is ahead of yesterday's match, however.

SC2K5 Guru Contest: Where _______ kicked my ass.
From: Karma Hunter | Posted: 9/7/2005 1:07:27 AM | Message Detail
We may just be in a general funk with vote totals in general right now. It seemed to happen at the tail end of Mario/Zero (causing it to fall short of Snake/Zelda), and it could have carried over to Samus/Ganon and Snake/Sora.

I was scared Snake would fall, but he seems to even be on the rise again. This is ALL him...

Oh, and, um...should I make the new topic? Or rather, that should be a *could* I...

Sadly, Snake wont win the contest. Anyways, I would love to see him just put up somewhat of a fight against Mario/Samus and I would be happy.

*Tosses X-stats out*

Bowser is an entirely different beast than Sora... Mwa ha ha... Zelda was able to take a chunk out of Snake, and Bowser > Zelda. Plus Snake will have no such pic advantage against the King of the Koopas! BWAHAHAHAHA!

LOL, you'd better toss the X-Stats out, as Snake's starting to wonder what the prospects of taking on Samus and Mario are a lot more than ol' Bowser.

Minor glitch. I think it doubled up that last update with the previous. There's no way Snake just pulled in 300+ votes.

man, this is still going on. I think this will end around 62-63%.

wouldn't it be something if Snake ends up beating Mario or Samus? 1% chance, I know, but board 8 would be a sight to behold.

Well, obviously, you've lost sight of what the true definition of "cool" is. So, lemme remind you:

Mario > Solid >>> Samus =P

man, you've got your inequalities wrong. I fail to see how Mario is anything close to "cool", though I seem to be the only one to think this.

..which, I guess, makes your statement correct. :)

Bowser beats Kirby 50.4-49.96, then beats Solid Snake by 2 votes, then loses by 1 vote to Samus, who beat Mario by 19 votes, Sonic beats Yoshi (who defeated Mega Man 48-52) with 60% of the vote. Samus goes on to lose to Sonic 30-70. Link ties with Cloud and the winner is decided by Ceej flipping a coin. While in midair the coin is eaten by Kirby. Kirby grows to Level 45 and learns Metronome. Ertyu explodes. Kali and Icon have a slapfight, Sonic beats Sephy 75-25, and then he loses to Link 10-90. However, shenanigans are called! George Romero flies away on a pterodactyl before being shot down by Ulti (laughing insanely and mumbling incoherently about X-Stats), and Alucard is declared the contest winner.

BOOK IT.

XD! Sora's half of the division is so weak. Poor Alucard.

I half-expected a blow-out yesterday, but didn't have the balls to call it.

But still...DAYUM! Go Snake! He's not losing to Bowser.

Guess this explains Knuckles...

If Snake is this strong and we all thought he was just getting weaker, than Knuckles must've been getting weaker too right? So now that Snake is tearing Sora up, it explains why no one expected Knuckles to come out of nowhere and beat Magus

Nah, this boost had to have been this year. He was legitimately weaker in 2004. He not only underperformed by 4% on Knux and Mega Man, and Frog (sprite or no) almost beat him.

Snake IS much stronger than last year.

soo.... Sora vs. Knuckles .. who wins??

I would take Sora and never look back.. But this match seems to differ.. or maybe it's because of the match pic..

I dunno... The pic IS heavily biased, but I wouldn't dare think it would make THIS much of a difference. I actually felt sorry for Sora. But it's not to the same degree as Snake getting blasted in the face by Mega Man.

Snake does dominate the pic though. Sora is hardly significant in the pic. What are the vote totals looking like?

as I said last night, I could see that Snake picture to be huge just because all of his other pictures have always been awful. going from an awful picture to a great one could really help.

still, it's not making an 8-10% difference.
