From: Team Rocket Elite | #200 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3338 Male's not as dominant this time. Though I think Easter will hurt the female vote, so I wouldn't be surprised if Male beats Female worse than in 2008. We need to see Link vs Male someday. --- Not Wylvane Dr Football Factor'd. |

Why would Easter hurt the female vote more than the male? --- Calintares made a whole lot of geolocation x-stats Congrats to Dr. Football for winning the Guru. |

Excellent, an age poll and the male/female poll. Next we need a continents poll. I will track poll updates for the continents poll like I did for the age poll. I want to see some extreme trend changes in a poll like that. I also want to figure what hours are the strongest hours for each continent. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |

Puny
Asian countries holding back Male from winning the entire world with a
clean sweep. No characters could pull that off in the last contest. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |

From: charmander6000 | #202 Influx of casual users is represented in the rise of females, i.e. many of the new female base here are casual gamers, and it's likely most of the casual gang will be too busy hanging out with family to vote at GameFAQs. So I imagine that less of the female base will be voting than the male base, since I imagine a higher proportion of the casual base is female. Of course, all of this is based on my assumptions, which are usually full of **** anyway. --- Not Wylvane Dr Football Factor'd. |

Females did well in the Power Hour and have apparently dropped off since, considering Female is now down to 7%. More support for my theory! --- Not Wylvane Dr Football Factor'd. |

This topic is so depressing. I think someone said that the last time we had this poll as well. <_< --- Dr_Football punted my bracket across the field. Congrats to Dr_Football for winning the Character Battle 8 Guru Contest! |

I
can't wait to see the trends of the continent poll. Europe would never
win a single hour over North America. Hell, Europe would never win a
single update over North America. I'm basing this off of the trends of
last year's soda poll, where soda started out at 49.91% in the board
vote and coke started out at 17.56%. Coke could barely manage a couple
of cuts on soda during its worst time. This time, North America is going to start above 80% with the board vote and Europe will probably be around 5%. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |

Turbine
is the creator of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning, which seems to be
the Banjo-Kazooie to World of Warcraft's Super Mario 64. And that's not
the worst place to be. Though...wait, Relic over Kojima Productions? Blizzard over Nintendo is fine...though Zynga outlasting Nintendo is hilarious. Also I remember reading the forums at CivFanatics, and some of the guys who voted for Firaxis hadn't even heard for Square Enix. That's lol-worthy for sure. |

is still ignoring my feedback for Dracula. If he says yes, I'll be

Also,
Bacon has been avoiding the Dracula question for a long time. Every day
it maxes at about 60-70 unread (on holidays like today it's double) and
then he'll get it down to 20-30. Mine has been in that 20-30 unread for
waaaaay too long. --- (|| ' ' ||) Visio Vestri - Character Battle VIII Fanfiction Project . /|_|\ http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=53091233 |

From: ZenOfThunder Thanks. Did we ever get an answer on Dark Link? It's been a while since I checked this topic. --- Nominate Epona for the next Character Battle and have a carrot! |
ZenOfThunder | Posted 4/4/2010 6:27:41 PM | message detail |
I
asked about Dark Link with Dracula. I also included a list that had
people like Dark Samus and Megaman.exe. I think my feedback was too big
for Bacon to want to read. --- (|| ' ' ||) Visio Vestri - Character Battle VIII Fanfiction Project . /|_|\ http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=53091233 |

Megaman.exe should be allowed, it's a completely different character with a completely different fanbase. --- Nominate Epona for the next Character Battle and have a carrot! |
ZenOfThunder | Posted 4/4/2010 6:32:35 PM | message detail |
I
agree. Honestly, we need as many new characters as we can get, and I'm
not talking random Tales character of the moment. If it boils down to
us sticking in Dark Link, Dark Samus and Megaman.exe, then so be it. --- (|| ' ' ||) Visio Vestri - Character Battle VIII Fanfiction Project . /|_|\ http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=53091233 |

I'm
with you there. Dark Link, Dark Samus and Megaman.exe are not our best
options...Hell Megaman.exe is a good option anyway. I love those games. From: Karma Hunter Oh c'mon it has at least one person! --- Nominate Epona for the next Character Battle and have a carrot! |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 4/4/2010 7:20:28 PM | message detail |
Megaman.exe would be high fodder. Nobody gives a **** about EXE like they do Classic or X. --- Not Wylvane Dr Football Factor'd. |
voltch | Posted 4/4/2010 7:22:03 PM | message detail |
dark link and samus ok I was there from the start...but where did the MM.exe hype come from? --- Dr_Football wrecked my bracket with his awesome goals. |
ZenOfThunder | Posted 4/4/2010 7:24:17 PM | message detail |
I
dunno, people keep talking about alternate versions of characters and
Megaman.exe came up. I guess he's got the third most potential of the
new "duplicates" that we're trying to get in. --- (|| ' ' ||) Visio Vestri - Character Battle VIII Fanfiction Project . /|_|\ http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=53091233 |

LeonhartFour | Posted 4/4/2010 8:16:21 PM | message detail |
If it boils down to us sticking in Dark Link, Dark Samus and Megaman.exe, then so be it. I'm not sure why exe is getting grouped together with Dark Link and Dark Samus here. We don't need to see a third MM clone, especially one that will perform like crap. --- "Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!" "Witness! You can't just say 'Dr_Football' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!" |

From: voltch ...Excuse me, I have a ticket to send. "Can we nominate ac!d Snake?" --- Nominate Epona for the next Character Battle and have a carrot! |

From: LeonhartFour That's the point. "How much crap will he be?" Hey I'd take Megaman.exe>talescharacteroftheyear any day! --- Nominate Epona for the next Character Battle and have a carrot! |
LeonhartFour | Posted 4/4/2010 8:19:39 PM | message detail |
Man, I wish people would stop acting like, "DUDE IF WE DON'T NOMINATE CLONES ALL WE'LL GET ARE TALES CHARACTERS!" --- Dr_Football is the best Guru winner ever created. |
Haguile | Posted 4/4/2010 8:20:58 PM | message detail |
From: LeonhartFour I didn't say that. I just said that .Exe is stronger than a tales character, yet tales characters get into the contest. So "being fodder" isn't a good argument to keep him out. --- Nominate Epona for the next Character Battle and have a carrot! |
voltch | Posted 4/4/2010 8:22:02 PM | message detail |
but
hey, looks like persisting with the Dark Link/Samus idea is kinda
paying off, a whole new cast of characters is being uncovered as
potential threats. --- Dr_Football wrecked my bracket with his awesome goals. |
KamikazePotato | Posted 4/4/2010 8:22:41 PM | message detail |
I am nominating nothing but Tales character to spite this topic Well maybe just Yuri --- DFF |
LeonhartFour | Posted 4/4/2010 8:22:50 PM | message detail |
So "being fodder" isn't a good argument to keep him out. Being fodder is a good argument to keep him out. Saying, "Well, at least he isn't a Tales character" isn't a good argument to include him. --- "I can set you free, Dr_Football." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |
ZFS | Posted 4/4/2010 8:24:43 PM | message detail |
Yeesh, if Dark Samus, Dark Link, and ACID Snake are the next guys in line for a contest, I'd say it's about time to wrap it up. --- from one thing, know ten thousand things |
