Well i feel like choosing the set of data that even with the outlier has a SD of 18 is a bit disharmonious when the discussion centers on if that update was legit.

I didn't choose that sample; I was quoting another post. And I wasn't saying it was not legit, sorry if I didn't make that clear.

Nah, I think it's time for a couple of OMGWTF Wesker updates for him to take the lead.

Romero is the main reason why Kefka/Vercetti is so legendary. That match had been red hot all day, with the casting of countless barriers. As the late SNV hit and it seemed like Kefka had it, the news broke, the result switched, and all hell broke loose. Ceej got involved and everything. Ceej contacted Romero on AIM, and Romero displayed the chat like a badge of honor. It was one of a kind.

And, sorry to burst your bubbles, but it was a better board day than this match has caused, although this one is still awesome.

A better board day by miles. Outside the stats topic, no-one seems to care. But inside the stats topic, we're exploding.

Kefka/Vercetti will hold a place that no other match will probably ever touch because of the fact that votes were removed, and Bacon doesn't seem to be keen on doing that.

For board reaction, Kefka/Vercetti is probably top 5. Mario/Cloud, Mario/Crono 2, and the Starcraft matches are the only things that can compete with it.

Oh, and there was also George Romero blowing smoke about stuffing for other matches that hyped up Kefka/Vercetti as well, saying he single-handedly changed the outcome of matches like Mario/Crono II.

I have a personal bias toward the Squall/Luigi board reaction myself.

Yeah, Kefka/Vercetti was something I remember here seven years later or however long. I don't know if this one stays a good memory that long. But it's damned awesome.

I'm inclined to agree. That was one of a kind comeback from Vercetti in the end.

Sonic/Samus 2002 is one for the ages as well.

What about Sonic Crono when Sonic came back from a thousand votes down to win by a thousand or something crazy like that?

Board reaction-wise, that was pretty big but not nearly as much so as the ones I listed, probably because by 4PM it was clear Sonic was going to win easily.

And I certainly won't put that in my top 10 matches list. Or top 20. Or top 30. Or top 100. Or top 500. That was the single greatest travesty in contest history (I'm sure people who aren't Crono fanboys may think differently though).

It was an awesome moment for Sonic fans, but yeah, that one match screams "FLUKE!" hard.
