Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 463

Master Moltar | Posted 9/5/2007 6:21:15 PM | message detail
I'm going to give up on this and go try to beat goddamn Freya on expert.

If you're just trying to beat it, don't focus on hitting every note, especially in the long repetitive parts. Just focus on hitting part of it (such as in the O-BY-G part, just focus on O-BY)

yeah, I'd say this is pretty much over. good show, Axel. I want to see this match 1 on 1. I'd probably still pick Frog.

I'd wait until you actually see Crono before sticking a fork in him, though. you're drawing conclusions on very, very little. that's like saying that Knuckles > Magus -> Sonic > Mega Man/Crono, and that obviously didn't happen. Crono losing was a possibility before this match and I don't feel any different about that one quite yet.

still can't believe Frog has fallen this far. or maybe Axel has jumped, who knows.

Fact. Life isn't fair..
Opinion. Frog shouldn't win anyway.
Fact. Kingdom Hearts has many fangirls. (Catch the girl part.)
Opinion. Girls don't use the intarweb.

... Are we being proved wrong? Are the AxelxRoxas fangirls crawling from under their fanfic decorated rocks to randomly visit GameFAQs to vote for Axel!? Is there really a god!?!?!

Find out next time on Dragonball Z. Seriously though. Is there a reason why Goku has never been in the character battle? I mean,Budokai was technically a game...right? D: (And FYI,no I don't like him,but the thought randomly crossed my mind.)

I'd like to know what magically spurred Axel's wonderful comeback from 1900 down this afternoon to being up 230 here in the late evening hours. He was and still is torching Frog for 50 votes an update. What the hell?

KH is popular like that?

OUCH

So much for stalling dead time. Unless Frog makes a decent cut next update, I'm going to give up on this and go try to beat goddamn Freya on expert.

Beating Freya is easy. 5-starring it is the chore. I still haven't done it =/

Ah, well I guess I'll have to hope the mods are feeling nice.


And I'm sure it's been said, but if Frog is doing this poorly it makes me worry about Crono.

Mass kiddies

And Moltar, I've tried that, but for some reason I can never get 2 star power boosts to get me through that part. I always lose rock power ever so slowly by hitting 2/3 notes. I just cannot seem to get the timing right on the long sets of green notes. I've tried practice mode, I've tried playing it at least 50 times. I just cannot get past that part.

Which is ridiculous since I've 5-starred most of the expert songs before it and almost all the songs on hard.

And I need the timing on the long sets so I can build star power to get me through that part. I have no problem with everything before the G-O-BY sets and everything after it.

At least Frog is back up to where he was vote wise, but he needs Axel to start dropping. Now is the prime time for this, though I doubt he'll start dropping without that intermittent stall period I mentioned before.

Frog's only real chance here is to stall until there's 60-90 minutes left and then go nuts.

Frog won't let him have the 250 milestone. If he would fight like that was the lead, my bracket would have a chance.

Except his stalls aren't nearly consistent enough. If he didn't have that 60 vote bomb dropped on his face, I'd say it's still reasonable, but he's just not doing anything.

Frog's still got a chance with this rate of stalling, small as it may be... but everything rests on the edge of a knife. One surge from Axel/collapse from him and it's over.

I won't say it's over, but I'm saying that the 25% chance of winning doesn't exist anymore.

Even if he loses, I wouldn't expect more than 200 of the serious remaining brackets to have taken this upset. That means those people just have to be unlucky once, too, and the rest of us are back in it.
