You do realize how bad Fawful would have done if that game had never happened, right? I'd go a step further and say that Awful wouldn't have even made the contest. --- "Here I go! Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |

It'd be cool if they made a Bowser game and had Mario as the villian. |

Wow,
I'm doubting Sora even wins a day match based on this. It's not like
Bowser has Alucard trends; he's still better in the second 12 hours. --- Yoblazer: http://i29.tinypic.com/dqhyf5.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Hopefully Sora will stop having 1 seeds. He's not worthy. Banjo is more worthy than he is |
LeonhartFour | Posted 3/7/2010 10:50:31 PM | message detail |
Yeah,
Bowser probably wins a 24 hour match or a day match. Sora would be a
lot closer, but yeah, he wouldn't win. He was able to cut 1600 votes or
so on Squall in round 2 in 2008, but Bowser's day vote is better than
Squall's. --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |

Do you guys think Bowser is a near-elite again? Man, I did not see this coming. Really impressive performance by Bowser. --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

Do you guys think Bowser is a near-elite again? Man, I did not see this coming. Really impressive performance by Bowser. Personally, I'm not yet ready to accept him as a near-elite again. Only getting 55% on Leon Kennedy and 42% on Crono still leaves a bad taste in my mouth... --- "Here I go! Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance!

Bowser has the same percentage in Europe and North America right now. |
HaRRicH | Posted 3/7/2010 11:06:30 PM | message detail |
Well, Bowser, you pulled the upset. I was so close to the top one-hundred after a terrible start...and since I had Sora > Kratos
next round, I can forget about the leaderboard this contest. If Sora
can go up another ~2% by the end, he'd probably win a full match and
take Bowser down in a day-match. Just imagine if Sora and Kratos had
switched seeds...Sora could win the division. Also, if KH is on the downfall (which I'm not sold on, but it looks plenty possible), does this affect Auron/Squall any? Squall was in at least three KH-games and showed real improvement in 2003 from the original KH-boost, but Auron was also in KH2 and showed an increase in strength from it. They both have KH-pictures too, so that shouldn't matter for this match. If KH's stock has gone down, then presumably Squall's stock goes down a bit more than Auron's unless this is just a KH2-drop...which would be weird. The question becomes whether or not this matters... ...probably not, and it's a non-issue if KH didn't drop much/any. Still, it's a battle of Square-superstars and it should be a close one, so it's worth asking. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

From: LeonhartFour | #2303 Bowser should win a 24 hour match, but Sora likely wins a day match. Sora (Day) has beat Sora (Night) worse than this, and Bowser is day-weighted but not by very much. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Team Rocket Elite (Moderator) | Posted 3/7/2010 11:22:23 PM | message detail |
There
were a few posts earlier regarding Charizard having to face Bowser
rather than Sora. Bowser winning should be a good thing for Charizard
supporters since Day Bowser is likely weaker than Day Sora. Worst case,
Day Bowser is only a slight bit stronger than Day Sora. If Charizard
could beat Sora during the day he has just as much a chance to win
against Bowser. --- Every night will have a day. Even forever has to come to an end. 2/14/2010 24:00 EST |

Pokemon
tend to be pretty good at resisting SFF. It's hard to see Bowser
rSFFing Charizard and I really can't see it happening to any
significant degree. --- Every night will have a day. Even forever has to come to an end. 2/14/2010 24:00 EST |

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is among the most popular Wii games. You're right though, there shouldn't be a huge reason to boost. It's just impressive to me. Maybe it's the difference between day and night. This is impressive though if you don't consider Day vs Night a huge difference. Think about it, Vincent got 54% on Dante and Vincent is considered the top of the near elites. Wouldn't you take Sora over Dante? I would, even if Ryu's win over Dante proves to be temporary boosting from T vs C and SSFIV. I might take Dante to do even better on Vincent today because of DMC3 SE and DMC4. --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

If Mario can't SFF Ike much, Bowser won't have any special ability against Charizard. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

Pokemon
tend to be pretty good at resisting SFF. It's hard to see Bowser
rSFFing Charizard and I really can't see it happening to any
significant degree. Hmm, Pikachu was 51/49 with Alucard in 08 with Captain Falcon in the picture. Maybe Ike is just stronger than we thought? Hey, Zidane should be stronger due to Dissidia. I could see Ike's brawl boost being longer lasting than the others due to the fact that he's a lesser known than the others. --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

rSFFing Charizard and I really can't see it happening to any
significant degree. Of course Bowser can't rSFF Charizard. That is because Bowser is much stronger to begin with. It's Charizard that had to rSFF |
LeonhartFour | Posted 3/7/2010 11:48:44 PM | message detail |
Bowser winning should be a good thing for Charizard supporters since Day Bowser is likely weaker than Day Sora. It's a Sunday match anyway, so the point is somewhat moot. From: Team Rocket Elite | #475 It's hard to see Charizard rSFFing Bowser is more like it because that's what he'll have to do! --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future.

Who will win the morning vote? Man, this match hasn't gone anywhere in awhile. That's weird. Isn't Sora's night vote terrible? --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |
LeonhartFour | Posted 3/7/2010 11:55:48 PM | message detail |
Sora's
night vote and Bowser's night vote are probably not too far apart.
There wasn't a huge shift in Sora/Midna at all. Mario Party has a
better morning vote than Zelda does though, so Bowser should do better. --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |

Yeah,
Sora's almost stalled for an hour there. It's probably safe to say he
takes the day match, if he can go nearly 50-50 during the night vote --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

So both Sonic and Bowser get redemption. Now we just need Charizard to bowl over Bowser with his ASV so that we don't see Mario/Bowser in the Quarterfinals! |
