MWIS
isn't one for common sense. Too busy vicariously living through Solid
Snake and pretending he's some hardened, intellectual badass. Aww man, Ulti, descending into the realm of the ad hominem. =( |

Holy ****, the son of a ***** pulled it off. I am literally blasting the MGS theme here. In three years, I have never done that for a match. Probably never will again, either...unless Snake keeps this going against Link! |

Cloud's problem is self-delusion, not angst, but yes ... there is a ( > "semi-legitimate" ) reason for it. |

You
know, I didn't want to bring it up until it was certain and it more or
less is at this point, but I had an account bet with ExTha. He'll probably weasel out if it. Only witness I absolutely remember being there was Swift, who won't back me up.

How
exactly did Squall win board 8's favorite character again? I'm sure
it's just because he's beating Sephiroth but Snake's fanbase seems to
totally dominate this board now. --- :> |

From: vcharon | #177 Then how do you explain Pikachu kicking his ass like a week ago? These contest matches are now the LEAST transitive they have ever been. Opponent contrast matters. The picture matters. Anti-voting matters. Momentum matters. Everything matters, and it matters more the later you get into the contest. --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

From: PartOfYourWorld | #180 That doesn't change the fact he dominates this board, I'm not talking about just in general. Solid ****, etc. This isn't so much about the contest as is it about the number of topics about Snake and the crazy amount of time people in the stats topic kept us updated on how many votes Snake was up by. --- :> |

Phoenix Wright dominates this board. *points to the fact that Wrighto is #1 and undefeated in my NCAA Characters Contest* *casually mentions that we are now in the postseason stage of the contest* </shameless plug> --- Squall Leonhart is the worst Final Fantasy character ever created. |

vcharon | Posted 3/18/2010 1:33:26 PM | message detail |
The
"boad vote" doesn't necessarily just consist of board 8, you know. I
seem to recall people whining all day about Pikachu doing that well on
Snake. --- :> |

seph is bringing snake down to averaging 53% updates. some asv --- Contest bracket status: ELIMINATED |
LOLContests | Posted 3/18/2010 1:47:45 PM | message detail |
I'm still not convinced this isn't all anti-voting and the two characters are 50/50 indirectly. Cloud doubled Ryu while being anti-voted. That alone should put him at at least 45 on BL, so I can't believe that Sephiroth is that far off, or that Snake is still crazy like in 2008. His performance on sprite Pikachu (someone on par with 2006 Yoshi) should put him equal to if not worse than his 2006 self, which IMO is only 40 on BL. I guess Cloud is only ~45 on BL, and Sephiroth is just way farther down than that, like in 2004. And Snake performed a couple points better on Squall because he didn't get an Old Snake picture this time, IMO. --- "I may not know the whole story behind this, but perhaps it's better that way.

Lieutenant Kettch | Posted 3/18/2010 2:31:21 PM | message detail |
I'd
say it's looking like a toss-up between Cloud and Snake now. I'd figure
Sephiroth could pick up 1% or so at least with an extra 12 hours added
to the poll, and 53/47 is the traditional difference between Cloud and
Sephiroth. Hope we get an exciting match. --- KrahenProphet and Nintendo cleaned me out in the Guru Contest. |

Pretty good round I'd say. Even the least interesting match had some novelty in how badly Sonic got spanked. --- Should I start running now? |
creativename | Posted 3/18/2010 2:53:08 PM | message detail |
Snakes
looks to be the favorite since he'll presumably boost at least slightly
by then and the Power Hour will be a massacre (I expect him to have
56+% 1 hour in), but Seph's going to tear this %age down to the level
where it becomes murky. SNV should be worse for Snake than this ASV has
been. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
