Also, picture advantage in order: Mario > Samus > Link > Sephiroth > Snake > Cloud Cloud just looks out of place there I guess. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

Also, I understand that you guys like to extrapolate, but isn't it
annoying to have to do it for every single character when you want to
make a change as big as basing the stats off of a different constant
character? --- I suppose people like IX because it was most similar to their favorite cartoon, Dragon Ball Z.- poupadis |

as far as "pic advantage" goes, Mario >> Samus > Link > Snake > Cloud > Sephiroth, I'd say. --- zizzy |

Mario DOES stand out the most with his bright red self, as does Samus kind of...and Cloud really does look out of place. --- Moltar Status: 10th on the leaderboard! Go my alt! Samus vs. Snake - Bracket: Samus - Vote: Samus (120/160) |

Looks like this is Mario vs Samus with 4 characters in the background, but other than that it's an awesome picture. --- "I was trying to escape. Obviously, it didn't work." - President Bush |

I have a feeling SOMETHING crazy's going to happen tonight...I mean, I
still say Samus is going out if you put a gun to my head, but honestly
it wouldn't surprise me a bit to see Cloud go out first or something
like that -- and I have the guy winning the whole thing! --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

You know, Cloud looks like he's pouting in the corner or something in that picture. (I never noticed before until people starting talking about him.) --- "Let's face it: the princess Zelda has always been a symbol of sexual desire." |
Mac Arrowny | Posted 11/13/2006 5:50:05 PM | message detail |
Yeah, someone other than Samus/Snake going out tonight would be amazing. Does anyone in the Guru have that even happening? --- "Luckily, I brought my smart sword. It won't hurt anyone 'friendly'. In fact, it makes them talk!" - Princess Zelda |
Karma Hunter | Posted 11/13/2006 5:51:07 PM | message detail |
Snake going out first would be more shocking to me than Mario going
out...bias, I know, but from what I've seen the man thrives on these
multi-option polls that appeal to a hardcore fanbase. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |
KamikazePotato | Posted 11/13/2006 5:51:55 PM | message detail |
Snake going out first is almost impossible. He's the only character on
the list that doesn't share a major fanbase with another character
(discounting SSBB). --- I suppose people like IX because it was most similar to their favorite cartoon, Dragon Ball Z.- poupadis |
trannyscience | Posted 11/13/2006 5:53:09 PM | message detail |
I could see anyone but Link going out tonight. everyone else is fair game as far as I'm concerned. --- zizzy |
Karma Hunter | Posted 11/13/2006 5:53:42 PM | message detail |
I mean, even with his SSBB support being supposedly 'siphoned', he's
still scoring 47% on Samus. Cloud and Sephiroth are going to have to
majorly SFF him -- relative to Link and Mario SFFing Samus no less -- for him to go out first, and I'm finding that hard to believe. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

I agree that every character aside from Link has SOME sort of chance of
losing on Day 1, and I also agree that Mario is more likely to be
kicked out first than Solid Snake...in fact, I'm kinda expecting Mario
to be booted in Round 2. I think Samus is most likely to lose on the
first day, of course. --- Antivote this petition, it sucks and would be wasting bandwidth: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=30693799 |

I think a very conservative and fair adjustment for Tidus is to measure Tidus using Kirby/Tidus 2K5 through Kirby 2K6. --- Antivote this petition, it sucks and would be wasting bandwidth: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=30693799 |

24.70?? that's way too low in my eyes. I think of him as being worth
about 28%. I struggle to picture Yuna at 29% and Tidus significantly
below her. --- zizzy |

Funny enough, I just did that, and using Leon's stats which had Samus
at 45.35%, Tidus is at 24.70% (between Freeman and Alucard) --- Moltar Status: 10th on the leaderboard! Go my alt! Samus vs. Snake - Bracket: Samus - Vote: Samus (120/160) |

Well, Tidus through MM 2006 gets him at 26.85%, which is better. But
still, both Bowser and Kirby were overrated 4-5%, and Tidus was right
there with them, so good chance he was overrated as well. --- Moltar Status: 10th on the leaderboard! Go my alt! Samus vs. Snake - Bracket: Samus - Vote: Samus (120/160) |
trannyscience | Posted 11/13/2006 7:13:00 PM | message detail |
eh, I'd be skeptical of Kirby's number since it's going through another
Nintendo character. he got the same percentage on a guy who's
supposedly a lot stronger and Bowser looks like he might have decreased
naturally this year. besides, I don't think the entire division fell
like that - look at Chun Li, Ryu or Rikku. if you ask me who wins between POP and Tidus, I'll pick Tidus every time. and I just made up a random name that I would expect to be around 25-26%. --- zizzy |
trannyscience | Posted 11/13/2006 7:13:21 PM | message detail |
heh actually, they have a common opponent and Tidus did significantly better. *shrug* --- zizzy |
HoorayProxies | Posted 11/13/2006 7:30:46 PM | message detail |
I'm definitely making my own stats. Probably gonna use constant Luigi,
adjust Zelda to her 2K5 value, give Tifa a 1.5% more than her 2K5 value
and adjust Yoshi down to slightly over Dante 2K5, probably 1.5% or so.
Adjust Tidus up too... that's probably gonna be it. I'm not sure
exactly how it's gonna look, so that might not be what I end up
sticking with, but it's looking like the favorite to me. BY the way,
that pic rocks, but I hate Link & Cloud in it. Cloud looks out of
place, and I really think TP Link looks fugly as hell. --- Hooray Beer, Hooray Proxies! |

Seriously... I like every other incarnation of Link far more than TP
link. He looks like a little elfish freak. I mean, yeah, he is,
but he looks so awkwardly skinny and pointy earred, it's freaky
looking. Then again I don't really like the art style of TP at all. Far
too muddy for my tastes, WW is far better. --- Hooray Beer, Hooray Proxies! |
