From MoogleKupo141 Posted 10/16/2006 4:33:02 PM #004 This is a general complaint, rather than actually being directed at you, but why do people make these things when the other topic isn't even close to full? Even Ulti makes them when the previous topic is under 400 posts... Because of attention-whoring idiots who scramble and go "zomg lemme make a stats topic plz so I can be famous too" all the time. And these things have been made at 300 during contest season for two years now. ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever."

Round 2 Limit Division Semifinas- Match 2 Jill Valentine (3) vs Princess Peach (2) http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2505 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2506 In round 1, Jill put up disappointing numbers on Sheena while Peach expectedly destroyed her clone Daisy. We really have no idea how this match will go. Peach is a new character who's one match is one of the worst SFF cases in contest history, and Jill's round 1 opponent is an unknown too. Some speculate that Peach could be as weak as Wario, and that DK is her absolute ceiling, but I don't believe that. Even still, Jill disappointed against a character that's expected to be weaker than Lloyd. Lloyd Irving 28.26% 23,433 Donkey Kong 71.74% 59,490 So even if DK is noticeably stronger than Peach, that leaves alot of room before Jill is a threat. Then again, x-stats have been known to be wrong in the past, so who knows. Jill winning is entirely possible. Although it seems likely that Peach will be turning her into a Jill sandwich. TuRtLe's Prediction: Peach with 55.36% TuRtLe's Bracket: Peach TuRtLe's Vote: Peach TuRtLe ~~~ I used my brain and statistics to make my bracket. Karma Hunter used MGS fanboyism. KH won.

before. Oh well. --- If this post was overly verbose, that means I tried very hard to not call you an idiot. If you mark someone for flaming/trolling, you probably deserved it. |

Hmm, you know, Jill still can redeem herself. A good night vote will
help, and Peach lost the day vote to Daisy, so she probably won't
dominate Jill with it. At least I can hope! --- Moltar Status: Feeling good and hot-blooded. Jill vs. Peach - Bracket: Peach - Vote: Jill (34/38) |

Overall prediction percentage: 78.98% The -1s to the -6s manage to break 90, but none of them go perfect. The -2s technically do a tiny bit better than the -1s on this match but it's probably due to the fact that there are only a few -1s. The two people who fell off the Top 50 were the two -1s to get the match wrong.

Rushing to create the next topic is probably the stupidest thing that
happens on this board. There is no ****ing point in trying to start on
of these topics. You don't gain any (lol) e-popularity or anything like
that. All you do is start ****ing arguments. It's as dumb as trying to
get 500 topics. Anyways, go Peach! --- - Why the hell did I bet against a character as deep, awesome and badass as Lara Croft, instead favouring a character from something as lame as HL2? Forgive me, XIII. |
