Well, in reality, my bracket thanks Albion for his rallying here too. Doesn't mean I condone it, though! Though it does make next round at least somewhat more interesting... Mega Man would just get flattened, sadly. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 3 - Dante/Leon/Kirby. Target: 48%. Robot LFF/SFF from Raiden? I THINK SO. Believe |

Well at least we can take solace in the knowledge that Mega Man will look terrible in the stats AS HE SHOULD I mean I love Snake but c'mon break 40% on him Mega --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

actually he probably looks better in the stats thanks to Cube
overperforming in round 4. MM would get flattened like he did in r4
last year; Cube will at least pull 20%. --- xyzzy http://img.imgcake.com/samusvsganondorfvsvincentvsgordon.jpg |

Anyway, how much lingering hope remains in the
idea of Chief upsetting Sonic? I know these two have spent two rounds
trying to one-up each other in disappointment, but if Kirby is in that
poll, I'd still give Chief a great shot. --- Yoblazer: http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/3699/thegamefaqsticketxr8.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

I still think Chief has a shot at first place next round, and second
the round after. that is probably the most appealing part of the
contest to me - the group of guys trying to outdo each other in
suckage. right now I like Sonic. Sonic vs. Chief/Dante, Vincent over Crono, Mario over Vincent. that's the big ones for me. --- xyzzy http://img.imgcake.com/samusvsganondorfvsvincentvsgordon.jpg |

MM has 62.30% on Zero right now. That's not conclusive to say that he'd be beating Cube with Vivi here. --- Crono's quest to beat Mario: 5 days until: Crono vs. Samus vs. Vincent vs. Pikachu |
KamikazePotato | Posted 11/9/2008 12:00:53 PM | message detail |
I think it's negligible - I don't think MM is losing because of Zero. Zero is doing a good 6% worse on Snake than he did last round, and MM...yeah, you're crazy if you think they aren't being affected. I don't think MM is dead either. Rallying adds about 30 votes an update to Cube. All Albion has to do is not have a life and WCC has it locked up. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |
transience | Posted 11/9/2008 12:01:55 PM | message detail |
if Vivi was here, he'd probably be above 15%. if that's the case, MM is most likely losing by more. --- xyzzy http://img.imgcake.com/samusvsganondorfvsvincentvsgordon.jpg |

basically, you can't judge a Cube like you would a normal character. --- xyzzy http://img.imgcake.com/samusvsganondorfvsvincentvsgordon.jpg |

Are you people still equating % to votals? It's literally impossible for MM to do worse here with Vivi. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

Also, as much as I dislike Albion being a douche, you guys are being
awfully hypocritical here, as you were all cheering him on for rallying
for Pikachu yesterday. --- CB7 Score: 244/320 http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z114/Javer8000/FanimeCon2008/Sandbag.jpg |

And you can easily judge Cube as being at least somewhat close to a
normal character. He is *not* static - he's lost 4% every round. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

Mega's going to have to materialize his 'stellar' second night vote out

about his trendline, but we'll see shortly. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

Actually, percentage is very closely related to votes. There's no way MM would be doing worse relative to Snake with Vivi here- it's not conclusive to say he'd be doing better relative to Cube. --- Crono's quest to beat Mario: 5 days until: Crono vs. Samus vs. Vincent vs. Pikachu |

Let's say the Cube is static despite all evidence to the contrary and gets 30000 votes every match. MM: 27000 Cube: 30000 Snake: a lot Zero: 14000 Replace Zero with Vivi. The majority of Zero votes go to MM. It's not hard. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |
transience | Posted 11/9/2008 12:11:44 PM | message detail |
that's not how it works. the addition of Vivi takes votes from Mega
Man, too, and the diversity means Mega Man would suffer and get a lower
percentage. it's pretty inconclusive what would be happening if something else was here instead of Zero. --- xyzzy http://img.imgcake.com/samusvsganondorfvsvincentvsgordon.jpg |

Man, too, and the diversity means Mega Man would suffer and get a lower
percentage. Vivi takes much less vote away from MM than Zero does. Vivi also makes Snake so do a lot worse, making more % available to MM. Vivi also probably makes Cube do worse, as more variety=less apathy votes. it's pretty inconclusive what would be happening if something else was here instead of Zero. No it's not. I would bet my account that MM would be winning here with Vivi. Every single thing points to it. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

Stop talking KP, you clearly don't understand what you're going on
about. Vivi being here instead of Zero could result in MM doing better
or worse, it all depends on the nature of the cube. --- mmm test icicles |

it all depends on the nature of the cube. The nature of the Cube is that of a relatively static characters who still decreases with tougher competition. He's not some mysterious entity. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

that's not how it works. the addition of Vivi takes votes from Mega
Man, too, and the diversity means Mega Man would suffer and get a lower
percentage. News flash, cube would ALSO get lower percentage unless you think he'd magically get more votes because of increased diversity. Maybe his vote total wouldn't lower but he'd still get lower % because of higher votals from increased diversity. And megaman would get most of zero's votes, he'd definitely have higher vote totals. |

Mega Man would not be doing better if Vivi was here, that's dumb. Yes,
Vivi would be at a higher percentage, but that doesn't mean Mega Man
would be at a lower percentage. That means Snake and the Cube would
take more damage proportional to Mega Man from Vivi, and Mega Man would
be doing better. Seriously what the hell are you people talking about. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 3 - Dante/Leon/Kirby. Target: 48%. Robot LFF/SFF from Raiden? I THINK SO. Believe |

thanks for making my argument - that Mega Man can SFF Zero while he can't SFF Vivi. Your argument is hella dumb then. SFF means he gets less votes relative to others stilll, most of zero's votes comes from mega's fanbase while vivi would steal from everyone. There's no way megaman wouldn't be winning unless vivi hurts mega more than the others somehow. |

__hiei__ | Posted 11/9/2008 12:26:23 PM | message detail |
lets put this in a very simple way megaman sffing Zero in a match makes him overperform % wise,but also makes the other two in the match overperform much more. he's overperforming but he's disadvantaged in relation to the other two.that's how SFF works plus there's always that argument that Zero somehow Reverse SFF's megaman instead. |

relative to others stilll, most of zero's votes comes from mega's
fanbase while vivi would steal from everyone. There's no way megaman
wouldn't be winning unless vivi hurts mega more than the others somehow. this is true -- when you're dealing with a normal character. but you're dealing with a Cube, a static entity. Cube will get the same amount no matter if it's Link or some other garbage entrant. Cube being fairly static means that Mega Man just needs to top 25% and he wins. Vivi getting a higher percentage than Zero will here means he has less percentage to work with. it's not all that crazy. --- xyzzy http://img.imgcake.com/samusvsganondorfvsvincentvsgordon.jpg |
