lolMacMillan

Anyway, as I've said before, if Ridley did boost it was due to finally getting a recognisable picture for once.

Moving on, Soap vs. Big Daddy. Who've you got? I thought Soap would be a lock but didn't take Bioshock 2 into account, and while Price did OK Soap is probably weaker.

Cloud has the 2nd highest prediction percentage so far behind link... so i wouldn't say it's low. It's amazing compared to how he performed during the match.

71% for Chris Redfield at the freeze.

....remember when he lost to Pyramid Head?

I still don't see how he got 68%, but I guess I don't understand 4-way stats.

Unlike Jill, Wesker, and Chris, Leon really has no reason to boost. He was mentioned once, in passing, in all of RE5. Maybe some new RE5 fans went back to try RE4, but even that would result in a paltry boost compared to what the other three are getting.


Altair wasn't in AC2. I wouldn't count out a Leon boost.

Still bitter that Vault Boy's stuck with a potentially souped-up Leon. He's going to look much worse than he should!

No, Leon got 76% on him... because look at the top of the stats. It says MacMillan got 24%. Meaning Leon got 76% on him.

Ridley with 65% over MacMillan. Maybe a little extreme, but yeah.

Oh, and Altair was constantly mentioned throughout AC2, and was in the opening. Makes more sense than Leon, at least.

And Ridley got nearly 31% in the U.S. against Cloud. That's where FFVII has lost power, and that's why it doesn't have an ASV anymore.

Are people really thinking there was an RE boost because of a blowout like this? I actually had 70% in my oracle by using 4-way extrapolation estimations.. Redfield is right around where I thought he'd be if you use Millan through Leon.

I wanted to say the same thing as King Bartz.Even if you are new if you see this board for a bit you will learn that Link and Cloud are the strongest characters so people choose them to win everything.But it seems people are so bored that from the top 50 people on leader board 3 have joke characters(Misigno,Cube,L-Block),1 has Mario and 46(!) have Link.I mean come on...This should be the final contest.

The fact that he isn't flopping helps the theory along, especially in a contest where blowouts haven't been as ugly. This is 3/3 good-great performances for the RE crew.

MacMillan clearly MW2 boosted and with RE5 Boost the percentages clearly look normal, it's chris's secret plan to make everyone underestimate him again.
But watch out cos those arms could wield the buster sword better than Zack.

And then got 38% on Sora a year later.

Chris ain't fodder. MacMillan is from Modern Warfare and should be an assload stronger than Eddie Riggs. Chris wasn't even fodder last year if you take his percentage on Sora as legit.

Chart from the day match:
Time | Cloud | Ridley | Votes
0:05 | 63.56% | 36.44% | 1386
1:00 | 67.66% | 32.34% | 10032
2:00 | 70.89% | 29.11% | 6291
3:00 | 71.30% | 28.70% | 4564
4:00 | 75.23% | 24.77% | 3371
5:00 | 73.89% | 26.11% | 2777
6:00 | 75.16% | 24.84% | 2657
7:00 | 73.91% | 26.09% | 3407
8:00 | 70.74% | 29.26% | 3982
9:00 | 72.40% | 27.60% | 4305
10:00 | 73.20% | 26.80% | 4646
11:00 | 72.25% | 27.75% | 4750
12:00 | 72.79% | 27.21% | 4616

Of course, Ridley's best hour was his first, and he never got above 30% for another hour again. Cloud got a couple of 75%+ hours, and he had a weird hour in the morning where he got less than 71%, which was his worst non-Power Hour hour.
