What's been the worst performance of someone starting off a contest since Mario/Servbot? Mario/Joanna? Samus *should* break that, but if she doesn't...XD --- Commit it to memory. |

Nidoran F is also going to be at its maximum during this initial
start. The further we get away from start time, the much better that
Samus will end up doing. I don't know so far we've had 2800 votes and the board is only worth a couple hundred so unless LUE is vote stuffing 90% is now impossible and 85% is starting to get unlikely. --- "I was trying to escape. Obviously, it didn't work." - President Bush |

Yeah. If you want to believe that Nidoran F actually has any type of notable strength while we are exactly 11 minutes into the match, be my guest. --- ...a lone figure shining in the toxic shadows. She comes dressed for war, and her wrath is terrible. |

I'd imagine this to keep up for a while. LUE and Board 8 combined should be able to get a thousand or so votes for Nidoran F. --- Z1mZum totally owned me in the July 2006 Guru Contest The Funky Chickens in Trivia XVIII |

This match reminds me of Mario vs. Servbot... Anyway, Nidoran F has over 700 votes already. That's a bit too many to account for the vast majority being joke votes, I say. --- "Ah, a party!

Don't take anything out of the opening minutes of a match involving a fad character. Just don't do it. You'll look stupid. Yeah. Link had 75% at this point according to that poll.

Yeah, at best Samus can get over 80%. This isn't an Adventure-level

Considering that all of LUE and LL is behind Nidoran, I'd wager yes.
She won't be as good of a joke during the day though... the only way
Samus doesn't break 85% is stuffing. --- Explicit Content Cheer Up Emo Kids - Team Tranny Did! |

Well, I'm back to my lucid, laid-back self. This shouldn't really bother me. I vote for CATS all the time. I voted for CATS against my favorite character ever, in fact. This shouldn't bother me. I've voted for Gordon in every single match he's ever been in despite never playing his games for more than 30 minutes. This shouldn't bother me. I voted for Madden over Super Mario Bros. and urged others to do the same. This shouldn't bother me. But it does. It bothers me because LUE has managed to put together something far better than Board 8 ever has, and they did it on our home court.

If we assume Samus steamrolls for the next 23+ hours, I'd imagine she'd
end up somewhere around 85%. Knowing full well that Nidoran IS getting
a large amount of stupid votes, that really isn't too bad. Still...
Nidoran F. Ugh. --- The Little Mermaid 2-Disc Platinum Edition DVD Coming October 3, 2006 |

initial vote will be faaaaaaar greater than CATS in comparison to there
day votes. --- Explicit Content Cheer Up Emo Kids - Team Tranny Did! |

Link had 76.07% against CATS at this point. He finished with 87%+. This is still sad considering I wanted Samus to get 90%+. She's not getting that.

But did CATS have the LUE/Board 8 following that Nidoran F does? I guarentee at least 800 of her 1000 votes were joke votes from LUE and Board 8 TuRtLe ~~~ Character Battle V score: 0/0 | Check out my contest analysis: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=30498383 |
| Karma Hunter | Posted 9/11/2006 9:21:48 PM | message detail |

I thought Board 8 rallied for Nidoran F as well, it's just that LUE/LL
was the X-Factor that allowed it to get in (as opposed to Midgar
Zolom/Jay Solano). And Link was doing better against CATS at this time -- and while he's a LOT stronger than Samus, I expect CATS to be even stronger when compared to Nidoran F. The difference, of course, is that CATS is a fad spread out through the entire internet while Nidoran F is completely created by the boards. Samus should gain more percentage relative to now than Link did relative to his start... --- Commit it to memory. |

This probably doesn't mean anything for future matches, but this is
definitely disappointing for Samus. She might struggle to break 85%. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

It's funny how ignorant people can still be because they don't want to
admit they're wrong. When Nidoran F has 20,000 votes, they'll say
18,000 of them were joke votes. --- caps |
