I still think this is over, by the way, but at least Revan could have taken a day match. --- Yoblazer: http://i43.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Revan
should get stronger as this match wears on. I feel he's someone that
casuals, who arent voting early, will vote for cuz of the lightsaber...
but the early voters arent swayed that easily --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

Hmm. A gain, but not enough of one to call it game. Works for me. I'm rooting for my bracket/Terra, but close matches are good things. |

KotOR lost the early night vote to Halo,
and didn't start consistently beating it until Europe. Fortunately,
FFVI is quite good in Europe and Halo is unbelievably awful. --- Mustache...and Green... |
Cyclo_Reaper | Posted 2/11/2010 9:22:20 PM | message detail |
From: PartOfYourWorld | #158 As with all WRPGs though, they typically keep on gaining throughout the night due to a bad board vote. Like Arthas gained like 6% from the board vote.. and even if Revan does that, he wins. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

If
Terra can hold that big majority in Europe she's got this, but European
numbers are very volatile at this stage of the match....Ocelot went
from 73% in Europe early on to 53% by the end of the poll. --- 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.... |

Projection based on Kefka/Arthas: Terra with 50.74% Even that will not do. At least Arthas, pathetic as he is (but not as pathetic as Thrall who Link failed to quadruple) is good with the night. Darth Fraud over here is going to get annihilated. Terra has 70% in Asia and 60% in Europe |

Who wins based on Crono/Vincent Revan wins so easily that it's hardly worth it to do the calculation. --- 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.... |

Like
for instance, Shepard lost the ASV to a L4D character. Thats how bad
Bioware, and WRPGs in general, are at day. So they must be better at
night, since Shepard did best during day and second night vote. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

Bad
update for Revan. Well, that 24 vote cut was a bit of a fluke as was
the 112 vote gain for Terra the update before that. Can't expect Revan
to start cutting in earnest until after the power hour. --- 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.... |

From: Karma Hunter | #175 Dude, its a wrpg characters against an old school Square character. It was obvious that it was gonna not look good for Revan early on if he was anywhere close to Terra. He'll get better as the night wears on as all WRPG characters do. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

Also, GameFAQs. No support for Zidane? Seriously? You boost Cecil, Kefka, Jecht, even Terra, but you can't get Zidane to double a box? I am disappoint. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

LOL Leonhart's Guru bracket :( From: KamikazePotato | #178 Maybe Claptrap is just a powerhouse and Zidane's gonna get 60% on Ike next round! --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |
Cyclo_Reaper | Posted 2/11/2010 9:28:52 PM | message detail |
From: KamikazePotato | #178 Borderlands was a pretty big hit. Claptrap is probably stronger then people gave him credit for. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

Dude,
its a wrpg characters against an old school Square character. It was
obvious that it was gonna not look good for Revan early on if he was
anywhere close to Terra. He'll get better as the night wears on as all
WRPG characters do. Perhaps you should look at past matches? For example: http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/drupal/node/22?matchnum=3468&num=4 KotOR did slightly better in the day and that was with *Halo* in the match. It's pretty balanced, I think that comes from people playing it on both the PC (favors night) and XBox (favors day). --- Mustache...and Green... |

LeonhartFour | Posted 2/11/2010 9:31:49 PM | message detail |
I
think the problem with Revan is that he basically had to rely on people
voting for him based on design and the DARTH name, which obviously
isn't happening at this point. KotOR by itself just wasn't gonna be
enough. --- "Spoil it for me. I'm never going to play that game so I want to know if he's going to be another Auron or another Sin." - Soul about Jecht vs. PW |
Cyclo_Reaper | Posted 2/11/2010 9:32:04 PM | message detail |
Though I do admit that Revan is a long shot here, but its silly to consider him completely done. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

no, its not, revan is DONE --- Nominate Red XIII for the Character Battle VII! He's the Lion with a fire tail from Final Fantasy VII. |
Gooper Blooper | Posted 2/11/2010 9:32:41 PM | message detail |
Okay, this is boring now, going to bed. But there's no reason for people to kick themselves if they picked Revan. He was new, this match was a tossup, and he's not getting slaughtered or anything. No shame in a simple goof like this. Unless he goes crazy for no reason after the first hour. --- And then the car wash cost five dollars. Pokemon Platinum: 1719 9497 5082 |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/11/2010 9:32:55 PM | message detail |
Terra's
gaining at too fast a rate for Revan to have any chance of winning.
Hell, at the rate Terra's gaining, I wouldn't give him a Frog's chance
in hell. --- Not Wylvane |

Karma Hunter | Posted 2/11/2010 9:33:29 PM | message detail |
This
isn't like Ocelot/Red where the former was chopping away an opening
rush of Power Hour fueled votes during their worst time. This is an FF6
character that isn't named Kefka - she won't fall off big until
morning, and her worst time is never gonna come here. Sucks because I didn't think Revan would need the day to beat freakin' Terra. --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

The lead's only at 340- that's not very much in 1v1. Although, yeah, Revan needs to start with the percentage cuts NOW. --- 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.... |
RPGuy96 | Posted 2/11/2010 9:34:34 PM | message detail |
I
think the problem with Revan is that he basically had to rely on people
voting for him based on design and the DARTH name, which obviously
isn't happening at this point. KotOR by itself just wasn't gonna be
enough. KotOR alone would probably be enough if you thought Revan was stronger than HK. Which still isn't impossible, depending on where Terra ends up, but Squall is probably going to distort that. I wonder if he SFF's her? Auron couldn't SFF Rydia, but there were at least two reasons why not and Terra doesn't have those...advantages. --- Mustache...and Green... |
Cyclo_Reaper | Posted 2/11/2010 9:35:11 PM | message detail |
As
long as Revan can keep it under 1k by the morning I think he has a
shot. US is his best time and old school square dies with the morning
vote. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |
