Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 694

If Kotor advances, I wouldn't be shocked if its the lowest prediction percentage of brackets ever. Who would of thought against 3 heavy weights like GTa, Halo and Diablo?

Very true -- GTA:VC alone had 79.11% of the brackets against SW:KotOR in 2004.

End the match! You know, if KotOR does struggle through the morning, this does give it about 11 hours to improve. Plausible chance here?

Doesn't struggle you mean? And yeah, its possible... long shot, but its possible. It needs to consistantly build a leader before the asv though

What do you know, I picked Halo to win the division, and now it can't even get past the first round!

AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Not that it was my overarching favorite to win. But come on, who would've thought KOTOR stoud ANY chance of advancing???

Halos great day vote doesn't normally start till the ASV, though. Its not that good with morning and during school vote typically, so if Kotor can still be building a lead during those...

Looking at trends, Chief typically SUCKED in europe vote. Badly. So this is the time for Kotor to build a lead if it wants to hold on

What the hell? You cannot be serious that Halo is not number one. I have to deal with Zelda and Final Fantasy nuts ruining my score but now suddenly the elitists that always hail the first Halo are nowhere to be found? why is Diablo 2 considered more important than Half-Life 0_o?

Doesn't struggle you mean?

I mean struggle in a sense that it stays right with Halo and doesn't allow it to make up any ground.

And yeah, looking at some of his older matches, Chief doesn't have much of a morning vote. Unless he's up against total night characters, he usually falls or stagnates in percentage all the way until the ASV, at which point he promptly explodes. If Halo follows similar trends, then KotOR has a good ten hours to build here. Let's put them to good use!

You guys keep pushing the fact that KotOR is an Xbox game as well, so I wouldn't expect it to completely die in the ASV. We're not talking about Crono/Frog/Donkey Kong here.

Thats true... Oblivion actually held its own, and went up a little bit in percentage during the ASV.

I don't expect a collapse, but the fact that it's doing pretty well here while Halo falls suggests that the tables will definitely be turned in twelve hours. I'm hoping for another Castlevania 2006, but that's not being too realistic.

It could be like Oblivion though, which had about the same strength all day, no real shifts.

KotOR should be expected to do well here with the Europe vote, it is a Star Wars game afterall. That doesn't mean it has to do poorly with the US vote though, we just saw KH do well with both yesterday.

This is an absolutely chaotic match. Halo is not only losing ground to KOTOR, but it's also allowing GTAIII to gain on it. If that's true...there's only one thing to say.

HALO FAILED AGAIN!!!

Also, both of my favorites to get out of this division will be out in round 1. Argh!!! Especially considering that I chose Halo to win the division!!!

It will be quite embarassing if I find out that the game I chose to win this division gets LAST PLACE IN THE FIRST ROUND!!!

GTAIII and KOTOR are gems though, so I'm not too mad about Halo losing to those. IT'S DIABLO II THAT'S KILLING ME!!!

LOL. Right now I have 0 points from this match. I had no clue Diablo 2 was this popular, and I had Halo winning the division finals. Oh how I hate when I overestimate a game I don't even like.
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 4/29/2009 2:09:50 AM | message detail
Halo is being generous with its percentage right now, and it's allowed GTA to cut it pretty well in the last hour. If it doesn't pick things up with the morning vote, it might very well be in last by the time the ASV gets here. I know it shouldn't, but psychologically, that just makes the comeback attempt seem so much more daunting. In any case, If KotOR pulls off the miracle, I think we'll be well on our way to establishing the Halo Bombs in Years When Microsoft Isn't Advertising it Up the Ass Factor.

Here's what I'm going to dream for tonight:

-- GTA3 passes Halo...
-- ...GTA3 catches up to SW:KotOR as it drops...
-- ...Halo waits until the ASV to start the comeback...
-- ...three-way tie while Diablo 2's vote total says "666" somewhere...
-- ...Halo and GTA3 pull away from SW:KotOR...
-- ...SW:KotOR builds steam in the final hour...
-- ...yet Halo barely advances anyway, but SW:KotOR overtakes GTA3 for third with an amazing update.

G-nite!
