Will any characters actually hit 60%, 70% or even 80%? I think we'll see Mario and Link getting well over 70%. By all means, they should get 80%, but that seems like a tall order in this format. --- Experiment status report update: Metroid project 'Dread' is nearing the final stages of completion. |
Dark Silvergun | Posted 9/7/2007 1:26:16 PM | message detail |
I just think 80%+ is pushing it. If that were the case, then the other
3 would have a combined total of 20% or less. If the totals were close
to even for the other 3, they would each have <7%. --- Warning, the self-destruct system has been activated, all personnel should evacuate immediately, 5 minutes to detonation. |

Ike never should have been the favorite...especially now that we've
seen Midna. If she couldn't do any better than she did a year after
LoZ:TP's release on two different systems, then Ike's going to do
NOTHING as a FE character with newly-found SSBB-hype. Granted, Midna's
got tougher competition, but Ike still ain't competing with Duke or
Gordon. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

There's only one character I could see getting 80% -- Link. If he
weren't dominate enough in a one-on-one contest, I think he might be
even better
here, especially against the sick amounts of fodder he's up against.
The dude nearly got 45% in a poll with Cloud, Sephiroth, and Snake,
after all. --- Experiment status report update: Metroid project 'Dread' is nearing the final stages of completion. |

126 vote gain. It doesn't even seem fair anymore. --- Chris Benoit - Showing you how roid rage brings out the monster in all of us. :-) Shall he burn in hell. |
HaRRicH | Posted 9/7/2007 1:31:58 PM | message detail |
Just to remind everyone, AiAi was able to get 9% on Link. We're not
dealing with WW-Link anymore and LoZ:TP is out, but him breaking 80% on
a PW character, a Pokemon character, and...whoever Agent J is. Then again, Link's broken 80% on Fox and Yoshi before (separately) and his three opponents are all found on the DS, to my understanding. It's possible, but...still a steep order. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

Dark Silvergun | Posted 9/7/2007 1:33:53 PM | message detail |
Yeah, I would agree that Link could get a possible 80%, but it would
probably be closer to 70-75% in my own opinion, if it were to happen. --- Warning, the self-destruct system has been activated, all personnel should evacuate immediately, 5 minutes to detonation. |
Lady Ashe | Posted 9/7/2007 1:34:48 PM | message detail |
Hm. I wonder how many nominations Fenix got. Is it possible he'll be
snubbed next year? Most people are probably don't know his name, and
are basing their vote solely off of the picture, so I'm not sure if his
being here wasn't largely thanks to this board wanting to see how he
would do. It would be lame if he missed out on next year's contest
because we counted on the casuals too much. =/ ~~~ Ashe. The Cream of Final Fantasy Fanboyism. Embok. |

It's not like Fenix is a powerhouse or something, doing something like this puts him on Vercetti level, maybe a bit higher. |
Karma Hunter | Posted 9/7/2007 1:37:29 PM | message detail |
Not that I'd cry a river or anything if Kefka-level competition failed
to make the contest, but I'd consider Fenix's return pretty safe.
There's always a contingent of casual Xbox nominators who get their
boys in. Just look at Sam Fisher (sure, multiplatform, but he's Xbox at
the core). --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

So what are people thinking on Marcus/Kefka/Cloud/Jill(or Ocelot

appearing to be... He can prolly beat Midna. --- I got owned by Rufus Shinra, the 2k6 CB Guru Champion! The Cream of Smurf FODDER |

*eyeroll* Yes, KH, I know that, but...if you've got a ****ing good day vote and you keep Kefka well within your sight during the night vote, then yeah.

He's got some help with that. Don't get me wrong, Kefka is gash during the day. But as I keep saying making 150 vote cuts is always impressive. It beats what Sonic was doing to Crono or what Peach was doing to Jill (or what Masterchief was doing to DK? Can't remember) and those were one-on-one matches. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

Everything we've seen has pointed to that? He was barely behind Ocelot
in the villains contest, and barely ahead of him in 2K5. They're
virtual equals. --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

I take Ocelot over Kefka because I think Ocelot's gotten stronger since
SC2K5 (I would have taken him then as well), but I would say that the
best Revolver could hope for in that match is, like...54%, maybe? --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

Obviously the Pac-adjustment isn't perfect, but when you have two
contests and they're separated by 1% in the stats in both, one in favor
of both, chances are they're pretty damn close to each other. --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

Who cares if he has a strong day vote? The night vote is just as weak as the day vote is strong by comparison. Crono lost some updates to Master Chief. Didn't prevent him from 60-40ing him. --- At least your sword is to the point |
