he probably will end up 3% above him. still, we have utterly no idea what would have happened with a normal picture. for all we know, Big Boss could go back to his old pic and get 18% on Sephiroth/Mario. who knows?

I had to hear Magus > Snake talk for a little too long to be feeling *too* much pity now... he's dispatching of Wright far more than he warrants, at any rate.

...looking at the board, a LOT of people seemed to jump ship from Phoenix to BB/Magus what the hell is this

Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package.
bogalx | Posted 10/9/2007 9:24:16 PM | message detail
Is anyone else outraged that they used MGS3 Big Boss, giving him more votes by Snake proxy? Or was the picture revealed earlier and the outrage happened then?

Dammit, Snake, you're eating a decrepit pale guy.. that's gonna leave a mark in the morning!

... and that's why Mario's gonna dominate the morning vote. Magus will be eaten and Big Boss will be sick. It all makes sense now!

Solid SFFs him into the ground on GameFAQs, but it's a great (or awful) match pic!

Phoenix is sucking it up here. This is pretty disappointing for him. I thought he'd be running with Big Boss and Magus for the first 30 minutes.

I guess his bandwagon derailed, maybe because they only care about him for 1 match, or maybe because L-Block stole all his board love.

Beat Magus by 3%? Pssh, if BB gets within 3% of his 23% from last round then I don't see how you could deny it. Replace Pac-Man with Magus and Wander with PW...if BB somehow lands 20+%, regardless of where Magus lands, I don't think it's disputable that the picture helped him a lot.

Now if only he'd get the name he's got most of MGS3!

Last round he was bracket favourite on top of being Phoenix Wright.

This round, second place was up in the air due to that goddamned match pic, so people voted Magus for their brackets.

if BB somehow lands 20+%, regardless of where Magus lands, I don't think it's disputable that the picture helped him a lot.

I expect these two to fall at least 3% before the match is over. If Magus does, but Big Boss only falls 2 or less, he'll fulfill both requirements.
creativename | Posted 10/9/2007 9:29:30 PM | message detail
With the picture influence, we might be able to make some guess on its impact by comparing the x-stats.

With Morgoth's formula, if you peg Mario at 40%, Big Boss is around 22%.

Once this match is over we can mess with the numbers and see if Big Boss is noticeably higher than that relative to Mario.

Yeah. I wouldn't even necessarily Magus is out of this one yet, so I'm not about to make any comments on the picture right now -- although I would feel confident in saying the pic is giving him the strength to compete here.

...or Big Boss will do that!
