At least Bowser won a update against Crono. Guys like Squall had never won a update against Snake.


Nope.

Squall did win ONE update. He had ~10 updates of 10 or less vote gains for Snake thought the match... so the ONE update win wasn't a fluke.

Huh, Bowser's doing really well at bringing up his %. I hope it keeps up.

After his match with Dante, Yoshi will do respectable against Snake

Wow. I expected Bowser to bomb here, but not this badly. It will be interesting to see what Yoshi does next round.

That... was her final mission. And like a true soldier, she saw it through to the end.

Also, imagine the swings in Crono/Sonic. That's going to be fun to watch, even though I expect Crono to build up too big a lead to lose during the night.

Wow this is some morning vote.

My adjusted Dream Division has Crono getting 57.5% on Bowser. I think Bowser can get Crono to around that.

Crono will start to climb again with the second night vote though
BDawg | Posted 10/28/2006 8:03:04 AM | message detail
Eh, Bowser isn't even that great with the afterschool vote. Now obviously this is the weekend so I don't know how that translates but surely Crono can't keep bleeding percentage all day? And when did Crono get so crappy in the morning anyway, been hanging out with Magus and Frog too long?

Should I start running now?

Bowser's been tearing through Crono's lead this morning.

This is kind of like with Falcon. He was looking very impressive at first but once the day was over, his performance was just "okay"

First percentage gain in forever for Crono. :)

I love weekends. It allows nightwalkers like Crono to look even worse during the morning. =D

Crono appears to be stabilizing here. It was around this time that Crono stopped Mario's gains in 2003, and took the lead again.

Crono's percentage by the hour:

13:00 | 54.80%
12:00 | 54.89%
11:00 | 54.50%
10:00 | 52.86%
09:00 | 54.33%
08:00 | 55.54%
07:00 | 55.87%
06:00 | 58.37%
05:00 | 61.67%
04:00 | 64.72%
03:00 | 63.29%
02:00 | 61.36%
01:00 | 60.76%

A ten percent differential between night and day? Gotta love Crono! Bowser could not, unfortunately, pull a Ryu and win an update, but he's making big strides percentagewise with the day.

RPGuy96 | Posted 10/28/2006 9:29:53 AM | message detail
I actually meant 15 minute. Ryu did almost win an hour, but not quite (he won three of the 15 minute updates but lost the fourth by a greater margin). Sorry for not specifying.

This is an impressive vote swing for a match on a weekend. Bowser had 38% at one point.

Hopefully you fall below your projected percentage.

Speaking of which, assuming a static and legit 2k5 bowser and crono, what is the projected result of this match?

2k5 Bowser gets almost 46% on 2k5 Crono.

Kaxon | Posted 10/28/2006 10:13:13 AM | message detail
I think this match confirms two things:
(1) Crono has gotten much worse with the day vote over the last two years.
(2) If one of my favorite characters is in a match, they're guaranteed to disappoint somehow. Guaranteed.

Ok, now THIS is what I was expecting. Bowser was overrated, but not by a crazy amount. I wonder how those calculations look now, assuming Bowser ends up with 42.5 or something...

Crono vs. Bowser- Bracket: Crono - Vote: Bowser (52/60)

MC could've. But Sub-Zero? Not with Auron's KH2 boost he isn't.

Thank you, KamikazePotato. But Sub-Zero is Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 release and is Mortal Kombat Alliance. Is Auron close to Master Chief as well.

Something to look for here since Bowser's still increasing, his VC ranking has him finishing at 43.63%

Auron is only slightly above MC in the stats, but MC massively overperformed on Crono, and Auron was behind Mario/Samus SFF. Plus KHII.

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.

Donatello (sp?) gettin' last is the only one I'm pretty sure about. From there, I'd figure Raphael gets 3rd and it's a toss-up for the top two.

Very nice percentage recovery by Bowser here. And it's looking pretty good for my Oracle too!

Plus, instead of Ryu beating Bowser with 52.9%, he's expected to lose with 48.1% now. Which is, y'know, still crazy, but still.

Don getting last? I don't think so. I thought that spot belongs to Raph. It took so long for him to actually have an identity... and he probably had the least popular weapon as well. Raph went from being a sarcastic wisecracker in the original cartoon to a "badass" in the movies and subsequent cartoons. I don't think the gap is THAT wide, but I always thought it would go Mikey >= Leo > Don > Raph.

Identity, smidentity. I love Don to death and I know he'd be the weakest of the four here. He's got the least cool weapon and is a total brainiac. The only thing he's really got going for him is that there's simply no one on his level in the TMNT games, particularly the first one.

Don't worry, he'll be projected to lose with significantly more after Snake beats Mega Man.
