From: charmander6000 | #045 I'm not so sure. It's not like Heavy is disliked, and he did get the higher seed. Besides, it's freakin' TF2. Everyone is a fan favorite outside of maybe Engineer and Pyro. --- Yoblazer: http://i43.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Well, TF2 should be very North America centric. Probably why Spy held his own against Chief with the ASV. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

Ha,
Roxas is doing awesome in the late night regions. I'm sure that'll
chance though, its likely only a few votes from those places now,
nothing to really show the general populace. --- http://i47.tinypic.com/28gtj5g.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

Wow,
I could actually make the leaderboard for the third contest in a row if
I get the next three matches right (Sub-Zero, Jecht, and Eddie Riggs). --- Not Wylvane |

I've
gotten burned by KH more than any other series in these contests. Here.
Kairi and Claire. Sora and Ryu H back in 04. I don't like the series.
The KH games are basically. "Boss battle with Sephiroth" 1 and 2 for
me. I don't like the characters, the gameplay, and the story is god
awful. (20 different Soras what). --- "I learned in England not to deceive the referees" - Cristiano Ronaldo http://i50.tinypic.com/ohsr5j.jpg |

Biolizard28 | Posted 2/2/2010 12:01:29 AM | message detail Just wait until the bracket votes fall asleep. I don't think bracket votes are going to matter as much this contest because there are way less brackets this time around. We only had 25568 brackets this time, which was the second lowest number of brackets for a contest. Most of the other contests are closer to 40000 brackets, not 25000. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

By
the way, I've gotten my coworker, who used to be a casual gamer in the
80s, very loosely into these contests. He loves the TF2 sense of humor
despite never playing the game and is cheering for Heavy. I showed him
the match pic. "What, how can she beat Heavy?!" "...that's a guy." *he pauses, sighs, and goes back to his work without uttering a word* I laughed for a solid minute. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/ml36gl_th.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/1/2010 9:16:50 PM | message detail |
I
don't see how Heavy would be much weaker than Spy, especially since he
may be even more recognizable to casuals. I'd think Heavy and Spy would
be equal, with Heavy maybe even having a slight edge. Speaking of which, rate the TF2 characters based on contest strength. Heavy Spy Scout Sniper Pyro Medic Soldier Demoman Engineer --- Not Wylvane |

From: vcharon | #068 Eh, try talking to people who aren't gamers. Much of the art that's come out of Japan the past decade+ really is ambiguous. I was weened on Mario and Street Fighter, so I honestly thought Tidus was a girl. Heck, I thought Inuyasha was a girl before I heard him talk. --- Yoblazer: http://i44.tinypic.com/5nw45i.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
paraboxx | Posted 2/1/2010 9:19:33 PM | message detail |
So, this is expected for Roxas, right? Or is this good enough that he might have a shot at Tidus/Subby next round? Not that I picked that upset accidentally or anything. |
Lightslayer987 | Posted 2/1/2010 9:19:55 PM | message detail |

You don't have to look further than last contest to see that Spy is stronger than Heavy. 32% against Pikachu vs. 25% against Kratos. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 26/34 - Today's Winners: Roxas and Sub-Zero |

Pretty expected so far, but we'll see how it ends. A 60/40 shouldn't make him the favorite. Also HEAVY IS CREDIT TO CONTEST --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/ml36gl_th.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

...he says, as Roxas plummets under 60%. *sigh* |

Below 60% we go. Heavy is gaining pretty quickly after that board vote. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |
HaRRicH | Posted 2/1/2010 9:21:25 PM | message detail |
Aww yeah, Heavy. Keep it up! Assuming Spy = Heavy, MC's looking poor or Roxas's looking nice...and, while I'll take Spy > Heavy if I have to decide, there's probably not a big difference. Also, where was Spy being rallied at? The only place I heard about was 4chan, and there were mixed opinions on how much they were actually rallying. Besides, MC had a day-match while Roxas has a night-match... ...I'm liking Hayabusa > MC a little more than before now. Still don't feel great about it, but the ninja is looking well enough from what we've seen so far and it's on MC to prove that an Xbox-hierarchy exists. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

That
was over a full percent. If Heavy manages just a couple more of those,
I'd start worrying. The Valve/TF2 fans have 12 hours. --- Yoblazer: http://i44.tinypic.com/5nw45i.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Speaking of the day/night trends, and if I can go back to the last BEASTLY performance for a moment... Jill gets Samus in a night match, and she gets her one week after her anticipated RE5 DLC drops. She's got the right 12 hours, some good hype and a release going in, and will hopefully get a nice pic. Unfortunately, she got the wrong Nintendo powerhouse to prove a point. Samus just saps too much of that badass vote, and the fact that she's a female doesn't help things. I'd have much rather seen Jill against Mario. --- Yoblazer: http://i32.tinypic.com/zlf1w7.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

From: KamikazePotato | #089 I doubt Asia will chance much. They are obsessed with all things Square, and Roxas is facing a FPS character. --- http://i47.tinypic.com/28gtj5g.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

Spy
should somewhat stronger than heavy. He's got all the good moments from

I
looked at the trend charts for the last year and saw that Roxas's worst
time was the board vote. Now the board vote will be Roxas's best time,
which seems to suggest that a lot of the day voters are voting in the
night match as well. And we thought the day voters wouldn't be too
likely to vote in the night match, unlike the night voters who would be
likely to vote in the day matches. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

Or maybe Heavy is just that bad with the board vote.
