Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 844

Man if Mega Man gets Ulti-blowout'd by Mario we're just going to chalk it up to SFF.

Not really. If he thinks 55/45'd, the consensus will be "natural result". If he gets 60/40'd, then people will say SFF.

Not to mention the last name is a dead giveaway that it's an FFVII character anyhow.

Reno is incredibly popular and should get a shot. I think Seifer should be the next FF character in line though (aside from Snow in FFXIII).

I bet Mario gets 60%+ on MM and makes this entire group look horrible.


Actually, 60% is what Mario needs to look stronger than Samus!

Didn't that guy pick Wario? I remember because the first time the guru contest had that new condition was the series contest and whoever won that one made us nominate Toadette for the female bracket.

Before I forget, ngirl brought up a point about God of War III hype earlier.

I'm just wondering... has there been any GoWIII hype? You'd think for a major first-party title releasing in three weeks, there'd be more excitement than this. I haven't noticed anything.

How many of you guys were here in 2002 (playing the bitter old elitist card, sorry!). IIRC, Seph was supposed to win that match more easily than he did because everyone knew Mega's opponents were putrid.


Just because we weren't on this board doesn't mean we weren't on GameFAQs. I remember being psyched that Raziel from Legacy of Kain got in, only to see him lose to Strider Hiryu ;_;

But yeah everyone with any brains knew Mega Man's opponents were putrid and expected Seph to win with a much wider margin.

Mega Man > Mario is still ridiculous though. Indirectly maybe, but... *points to Mario/Samus*

In the two contests before this one, I have L-Block and Brawl winning.

You really think I'm going to win Guru anytime soon? Or, hell, ever?

I think it's more Megaman than Zack. If there's a part of this result that Zack is responsible for, it's probably due to FFVII generally falling this year, as is reflected in the shift in its trends, rather than in Zack being overrated before.

I'm convinced at this point it has to be based on location. I can't walk by my local Gamestop without seeing Kratos' ugly mug plastered on every window they have and a big sign outside the store for preorders. Coincidentally, one of the overlays was actually covering a small HG/SS promo poster.

I wish we were allowed to put multiple nominations on 1 character. Because I would probably give 10 nominations to Crono and 5 to Frog. Or maybe just all 15 to Crono.

Toadette is still hilarious. I think I nominated her anyway just for the hilarity of the controversy even though I didn't start doing Guru until 2008.

The winner of Guru wins the right to have people nominate anyone they want. Don't like possibly nominating someone you think will be useless? Don't enter Guru.

I thought Prinny was a waste of a nom, but I nominated him anyway, and he turned out to be a decent surprise. No ****ing doubt Toadette would have sucked, but for all we know she could have beaten Alyx Vance!
