I don't think Geolocation is updating.

There appears to be a slight delay after the match results update before the Geolocation results update again. The match results and Geolocation results don't update at the same time.

The stuffers have moved on to Arkansas! This was like 53/47 for Simon before, IIRC.

It's really weird what a huge regional difference there is in this match though. One of the biggest we've seen for the U.S.

...Good lord. Unless Ezio really really picks up the pace in the day (a very small task given it's Simon), Zelda might outdo what she did to Travis.

Either that or Simon is a legit not horrible fodder.

Very small task? More like a very high task. Simon's ASV is going to be bad and Ezio should be dominating there.

If Simon = Alucard and Alucard has The PLAN, Ezio gets 56% on Zelda based on the 2k8 stats.

Probably a bit of each. Simon got underestimated; Ezio got overestimated. I think Ezio will be stronger in the future, but he's too new; his fanbase hasn't reached its full potential yet.

Ezio's under 56% now.

Dude, what the hell? Zelda looked like complete crap this morning (Leon's stats have Travis getting 27% on Altair, based on Altair's BAD match), and it assuredly doesn't matter. This Ezio showing is in the running for Turd of the Round.

So, either Altair >> Ezio, or Simon Belmont > Liquid Snake.

I call CT/Castlevania SFF! This explains everything- why CT did better on SM64 with FFVII in the poll, why SOTN got completely destroyed against in round 2 last year, why Magus lost so badly to Alucard, and why Simon got destroyed so badly by Crono.

Really, this says it all. Either Altair is completely divorced from Ezio's strength and we're seeing something akin to 2k3's KHF where Sora got thrashed by Aeris yet the other Square guys still ripped it up, or they both suck and Liquid's just abominably bad.

Ezio/Simon = Kratos/Tails Part 2?

Judging by his past contest performances, I'm having a difficult time buying into the theory that Simon has strength. So, I think this is just an epic choke from Ezio more than anything else - I'm in full agreement with Ulti, this is definitely the worst performance of the division. I know Eddie Riggs did terrible, but Ezio is doing downright bad as well, and he actually had prospects!

This performance is even more embarrassing for Ezio when you consider that Simon's match picture is possibly the worst of the contest so far. It makes Sandal's look like Duke Nukem's.

Quoting my own post from the Crew Analysis topic:

"4ways. Also, Sam has been around for 8 years and has millions of fans of his games and he has the recognizable tri-goggles. AC fandom is relatively new, and anybody who hasn't played AC2 has no ****ing clue who Ezio is. The ads do not promote him at all, he looks like some random dude in a robe going around killing people, no name mentioned at all."

I've always been in the Altair > Ezio boat.. this confirms it. And Liquid isn't crap, he just had a godawful pic vs one of the most badass pics ever. I think Altair and Liquid are still almost equal, Altair probably a bit stronger. I believe he's very pic sensitive so who knows where his real strength lies.
