Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 666 (The Devil's ASCII Edition!)

Adamantno1 | Posted 4/7/2009 8:13:12 PM | message detail
same for crono but it doesnt prevent him from being noble 9!

Game magazines and the Internet was all over his game. A large portion of European GameFAQs visitors know of, and have emulated Chrono Trigger.

No one ever talks about Oregon Trail. Barely anyone outside America have even heard of it. It's not going to get second place, no way in hell. It's like thinking Jet Set Willy had a chance of making it into the tournament.

My nick's Adamant. I have a "no 1" that looks stupid. Would've changed it if I could without losing karma. So it's Adamant, not Adamanto or Adamantno.

One thing I got from this match: Tetris didn't live up to my expectations at all. No way Mega Man 2 has problems with it next round unless we get an ultra-choke job. No way would I see MM2 only getting 53% against this competition...

Looking at this, I'd say Tetris is in trouble against Mega Man 2 next round unless MM2 bombs...

Do they now? I thought that wasn't the case in 2007, where (excluding the final) the first matches had higher votals than the rest.

Pac-Man is a pretty heavy favorite in the Guru if I remember correctly from yesterday. The Oregon Trail hype bandwagon is taking off because......we all think OT is a better game than Pac-Man?

OT is a joke pick, it's a game everyone played if they were in elementary school in the late '80s/early '90s because it was fun naming your characters after farts and watching them drown in the river. I don't think anyone got any more enjoyment out of that game other than that.

You guys are seriously overestimating the amount of people who know of that game, here.
