12 hour matches? Bleh. That's way too unbalanced depending on the character in the match... --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

There's
no banana here. Years ago Master Chief nearly went even with Crono 1v1
in the day! Throw in some Mega Man aging and some Master Chief POWER UP
and you've got a great receipe for disaster. Also "lol Pokemon Trainer Red" night match Ocelot's got this guy. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

The
brackets have been seeded based on two sources: The top 100 characters
were seeded based solely on the number of nominations received. The
final 28 were voted in by users on the Poll of the Day. I'm not sure how that divides evenly by 6, but whatever. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |
HaRRicH | Posted 12/15/2009 12:37:24 PM | message detail |
Oh,
one quick thing: because we have twelve-hour matches, our trends should
be noticably different. It's not like the night-people aren't going to
ever vote in the day-time nor the day-people never vote at night, so I
wouldn't count on our trends being ABSOLUTELY crucial... ...but they'll be important. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

So, um, how many matches could the Board Vote/Power Hour "swing" in a night match during the contest, you think? If any. Looking at the FFVII/OoT/LttP/FFX, the first hour brought in over 12,000 votes. By 12 PM EST (9 AM PST) it was at about 74,000. Final total was nearly double that at just over 144,000. That effectively doubles the influence of the first hour from ~8% of the total vote to about ~16% of the total votes. And that's in a final, it might take a while for vote totals to pick up, and the lower the number of votes, the more influential the Power Hour becomes. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?

Master Moltar | Posted 12/15/2009 12:40:47 PM | message detail |
Zidane/Ike and Chief/Hayabusa should be good Sora's division is kind of interesting. Charizard has a good shot at escaping it. Samus/Zelda rematch meh Dante/Ryu/Leon all together Auron/Squall hype hype hype Seph's division is just one big black hole for interesting characters.

Tifa/Gordon

LeonhartFour | Posted 12/15/2009 12:44:56 PM | message detail |
The
thing with the day/night: Unless the match is super close to begin
with, the time of day won't change much but the final margin. Gordon's
better with the day than Tifa is, but it's not close enough for it to
matter. --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |

ok,
so we are good at naming events during contests, like THE GAUNTLET and
other things like that, any particular hypeworthy matches, or
interesting setups deserving of a name apart from Sephiroth's Square
slaying rampage? --- Shakes Fist! |
