I kept Charizard > Kratos despite every bit of sense telling me it was insane because I had a "gut" feeling on it.

Whoops.

I really should have learned never to listen to that part of me. That part was responsible for Kerrigan > Vincent for me! It can't ever be right!

Pretty good hour for Ocelot. But as the votals are rapidly increasing now, Red just needs to average 51% or so over the final 3 hours.

MMX is going to smash Ocelot so bad Red's going to end up looking even worse.

I'd argue he'd look worse in front of MMX. Red and Ocelot at least have contrast fanbases.

Red will probably look better against MMX than Ocelot, because it will be a day match.

Oh man, I didn't even think of that before. The x-stats will be in ruin due to this 12 hour thing.

Eh, but unless we're having Alucard vs Master Chief or something the x-stats won't be anymore than a few points of difference.

It won't be much worse than the usual standard error for x-stats. And it will be about a million times better than 4-way x-stats (speaking of which, Jill > Ocelot last year is still one of the strangest results in contest history).

Although I agree with you I think it can be explained by Cloud just being gone. If you notice in GoTY polls with lots of options, removing a strong entity doesn't necessarily correlate with 'x-stats' in them.

It seems that the stronger the entity being faced, the more 'clouded' the result would be in 1 vs 1 compared to something that wouldn't drain so many votes up.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Bacon has ever removed votes. Or has he?

From what I remember with Cjay, the admin had to manually check for those, and Bacon doesn't care nearly as much about the contest.

Albion, I don't think you're stuffing. Any even if you were, you wouldn't be able to do it all from the same IP.
---
lol you.
Zylo the wolf | Posted 1/17/2010 6:17:42 AM | message detail
Nah he will just keep the poll open for another extra hour, more than enough time for Red to catch up.

Personally I don't think these two upcoming hours matters because we all know that hell will break loose during the final hour anyway.

Remember when people thought Vercetti was stuffing because of his fast gains in between 2 hours of stalling against Kefka.

Are you saying the rallying wasn't real?

Because I've not been annoyed by you saying you were rallying before, since I always believed it was real!

I am the sole reason for his cutting. You can tell because of the time.

I have to leave really soon, and won't be back until at least an hour into MMX/Price, so let's see a few more of those before I leave to give me confidence.
