A Shadow Hearts game doing poorly? Never saw that coming! --- Wylvane PurpleMonkDish is a horrible user. |

So with the games listed, are we getting 64 or 128? --- http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/4839/drfc.png http://img.imgcake.com/drfootballpngru.png |

Bleh,
Assassin's Creed is so mediocre. That game belongs nowhere near the
contest. It might be the worst game on this list. I can only hope
multiple games per poll get in. --- Gamertag: PhoenyX101 |

Hmm,
if this is a 64 game contest, I think we might only be looking at 4
days of vote-in polls instead of 6 days like with the last contest. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |

From: Dr_Football | #256 Thinking 64. I'd imagine AC and DMC would easily get in a 128-game bracket. --- Wylvane Ikon is a horrible user. |

Rome:
Total War is in this poll. I wonder what that means about Medieval:
Total War? Hopefully it made the contest without vote-ins; it's a
really really great game and I doubt it'll do well in a vote-in based
on how RTW is doing. --- Crono > Sephiroth. 7 years of waiting, and perhaps many more to go. Remain steadfast. |

I'd say 128. Only AC and DMC here seem like games that would be locks for a 128 game bracket. --- AlbionHero http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
LeonhartFour | Posted 9/27/2010 9:03:37 PM | message detail |
Not to mention with the sheer number of games listed, I doubt it's 64. Plus, Bacon likes 128 contests. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
charmander6000 | Posted 9/27/2010 9:04:02 PM | message detail |
Really Bacon, now? This also confirms that we'll get a 128 game bracket. --- Calintares made a whole lot of geolocation x-stats Congrats to Dr. Football for winning the Guru. |

Plus, some of these games listed don't look like games that would barely miss a 64 game bracket. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

Of course this leads to the comedy question. What horribly over-seeded game does Assassin's Creed get to face in the first round? --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png "SEXTON HILLBEAST" - TimJab |

From: LeonhartFour | #263 You mean in the fierce competition to be in one of sixteen spots in the generational gaps, both got snubbed? Actually, this poll makes a good case against generational divisions! --- Wylvane GuessMyUserName is a horrible user. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 9/27/2010 9:06:30 PM | message detail |
From: Not_Wylvane | #276 I would think DMC3 and AC2 got more nominations than either of the two in the poll anyway. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

Possible
chance that we might get Wii Sports in one of these polls, depending on
if it got enough nominations to make the vote-ins, but not enough to
get into the contest without going through the vote-in process. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |
NoDicePwn | Posted 9/27/2010 9:07:43 PM | message detail |
So in the last contest, top 4-5 made it from every vote in match, right? So the the 5th place match may be the big one to watch. --- AlbionHero http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |

Not_Wylvane | Posted 9/27/2010 9:08:04 PM | message detail |
Seriously,
the release dates for these games are all over the map. There's no way
it'd make sense to do vote-ins like this unless there were no
generational divisions. So we've got that to look forward to at least! --- Wylvane _Panuru_ is a horrible user. |

54 Games made the last contest, this will be a 128 bracket, just look at some of the other options, they`re not touching 64. --- Calintares made a whole lot of geolocation x-stats Congrats to Dr. Football for winning the Guru. |
WarThaNemesis2 | Posted 9/27/2010 9:08:27 PM | message detail |
It was based on the % you pulled, so uhh...I wouldn't feel good about any game pulling under 10% making it. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png "SEXTON HILLBEAST" - TimJab |
LeonhartFour | Posted 9/27/2010 9:08:39 PM | message detail |
From: NoDicePwn | #282 It was based on raw percentage overall, I think. Which basically means we won't know until all the vote-ins are complete for the last handful of games. --- http://img.imgcake.com/ultigardenpngba.png |

Vote-ins! AC's looking good, but after AC2 in the GotYs and Altair/Ezio's last contest, this shouldn't be too surprising. We finally get a read on DMC, too...and, well, it's nothing to go crazy about at this time, but these are just vote-ins. Phoenix Wright might live to see another match to impress with the board-vote, too...depends on the other vote-ins. --- http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg EPONA EPONA EPONA |

Not_Wylvane | Posted 9/27/2010 9:10:36 PM | message detail |
I'm
still not comfortable buying AC and DMC as games on the fringes of a
128-game bracket. Both games are pretty popular here even ignoring this
poll, and I wouldn't necessarily rule out all these other games being
closer to reaching the 64-game nom area than the 128-game area. --- Wylvane whatisurnameplz is a horrible user. |

Whoo qualifiers. Man if DMC3 doesn't at least see a qualifier (I'm hoping it skipped these entirely) I'm going to cry. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
charmander6000 | Posted 9/27/2010 9:11:32 PM | message detail |
It was based on raw percentage overall, I think. Which basically means we won't know until all the vote-ins are complete for the last handful of games. I'm not sure about that. The 2 5th placers that didn't make it had the lowest out of the 5th placers and none of the 6th placers defeated a 5th placer from another day. --- Calintares made a whole lot of geolocation x-stats Congrats to Dr. Football for winning the Guru. |

NoDicePwn | Posted 9/27/2010 9:12:11 PM | message detail |
From: Not_Wylvane DMC does bad in almost every game related poll, and I'm sure the majority of the DMC nominations would have went to 3, not 1. AC is probably because most people nominated the 2nd one, not the 1st. None of these other games I'd expect to be anywhere close to sniffing the 64 game bracket, so thats why I think its 128. --- AlbionHero http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |

I'm hoping DMC3 just got in without the vote-ins. I personally nommed DMC3, not DMC1 --- Around here, I'm the father, the son, and the Holy ****ing Spirit all rolled into one - Red Crow |
