Ocarina is shooting for 400 votes by the freeze. Are you kidding me? Ocarina of Time is kicking reason to the curb and going beyond the impossible. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? SC2k6 (190/240) 99.4958 Percentile |

It's kind of weird that most people will think this is the real final match. Bacon should label it as a bonus match. --- Be a good little washing machine, now... o_0 KrahenProphet did not fall for the FFVII bandwagon! |

I didn't think FF7 would do any worse than yesterday, but uh.. it's going to end up like 2% worse --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

Over
2000 votes at the freeze, and already 200ish ahead of yesterday. Could
be headed to the 155,000-160,000 range if it keeps up. And even Bacon admitted this match would decide which game was the true #1. --- Krahenprophet he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

If Cloud's only game(minus inconsequential cameos) gets this slaughtered by ONE of Link's games... man I'd hate to see a Link Vs. Cloud 1v1 --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

95th in Guru, which isn't bad for someone whose winner didn't even make the finals. I got the Final Fantasies right, at least. --- Brawl did well for me, but not enough to net me the Guru win over Krahenprophet, so kudos to him. |
hochiminhX | Posted 6/8/2009 9:11:34 PM | message detail |
I
told you all that Link beats Cloud with 60% now. But I doubt we get
another contest to see it. I mean... why? Whats the point now? Nobody
was having fun during the final yesterday. --- I will bury you. |

on the Leaderboard. This is literally the first time I broke the
leaderboard, though I came within 2 points or so on 3 separate
occasions. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=147 |

Ocarina
is far and away my most beloved game ever, but this is too much
overkill even for me. If you wanted to signal the decline of these
contests, there's the flare, gentlemen. Either pack it up or help me
get Darth god damned Vader in the next one. --- Meeks54's sig for a stupid pick that had no chance. I even had it coming in first. MWC>Yo Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be.....LIKE MWC!!! |

Gaddswell | Posted 6/9/2009 12:02:25 AM | message detail No updater for the match it looks like. Then we track poll updates manually until the updater starts tracking them, then have creativename manually enter in any updates we tracked manually. We should track the poll updates every 5 minutes, not every 15 minutes (suck it 15 minute update supporters!!). --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

It'd be totally pointless. Contests are dead. Link would kick the ass of Darth Vader, Superman, Batman and James Bond. No hope of anything short of random joke or Link winning ever again. --- :> |
LeonhartFour | Posted 6/8/2009 9:13:27 PM | message detail |
This is even worse than Zelda/FF in the Series Contest. 10 minutes in, Zelda had 57.10% and a 563 vote lead. Last time Link/Cloud happened was 2006. 10 minutes in, Link had 59.57% and a 659 vote lead. This match looks on par with that, which means FFVII will get somewhere in the neighborhood of 46%. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside."

Ladies and gentleman, this is exactly why 1V1's should never happen ever again. Match over. --- The Gamer In Me And that's the bottom line, because KrahenProphet said so. |
red sox 777 | Posted 6/8/2009 9:14:02 PM | message detail |

From: paulg235 | Posted: 6/9/2009 12:13:49 AM | #344 this is a little too much even for me, but you'd be singing a different tune if FF7 was winning. Don't even say otherwise. --- *~Swift~* Proud NY sports fan |
MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 6/8/2009 9:14:47 PM | message detail |
From: paulg235 | #344 Yeah, this is the one major problem with 1v1. If a match is over within minutes, theres no real reason to keep up with it. At least 4ways have other variables like matches for 2nd, 3rd, etc. --- http://www.xboxlc.com/cards/blue2/Albion%20Hero.jpg http://img2.gelbooru.com/images/356/484cc4215cae81cbd2ed258c3dbbfadc0b899894.gif |
