From: Achromatic | #347 Well, that's usually what Nintendo does. When Nintendo doesn't do that, it usually doesn't turn out well for it. --- "Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!" "Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!" |

Well, that's usually what Nintendo does. When Nintendo doesn't do that, it usually doesn't turn out well for it. Yeah. The expectation from sunshine backers was that it would take such a big early lead that it would be able to win first hour and just hold the lead over night. It could only lead 2 minutes --- http://i56.tinypic.com/o5thna.jpg http://i51.tinypic.com/33kbvba.jpg |

Yeah.
The expectation from sunshine backers was that it would take such a big
early lead that it would be able to win first hour and just hold the
lead over night. It could only lead 2 minutes If that was the expectation, that was silly. Halo is the day game here, not Sunshine, and Halo has historically done well at the opening. It's not FFVII. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |

It's 6am in Europe the match probably has like 20 votes. That's a pretty close approximation. In the continent poll, Europe was at 2.44% at the end of the board vote. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |

Why would Halo do well against a Nintendo game early on? Because Halo sucks so badly at the deep night that it's going to do better here in the power hour than later against any Nintendo game that isn't Smash Bros. Of course, if you let Halo get its day vote tomorrow, it would end up higher than here, but Halo doesn't get that day vote. It has to go through its awful night vote, and then face Mario's morning vote.

Because
Halo sucks so badly at the deep night that it's going to do better here
in the power hour than later against any Nintendo game that isn't Smash
Bros. Of course, if you let Halo get its day vote tomorrow, it would
end up higher than here, but Halo doesn't get that day vote. It has to
go through its awful night vote, and then face Mario's morning vote.
Halo's day vote won't really get going until the last hour of the poll. The true night vote won't come in for a few more hours though. --- BOP Results: http://charmander6000.webs.com/GotD%20BOP.xls GotD Bracket: 4/6 Today's Matches: Halo 3 & Halo |

I like when people gloat during coin flip matches. So many people were bashing Halo/Chief last few weeks saying that a joke game like Sunshine could even beat a Halo game. When you talk that much smack and don't back it up, gloating is inevitable. --- http://i56.tinypic.com/o5thna.jpg http://i51.tinypic.com/33kbvba.jpg |

From: KrahenProphet | #388 Not gloating at all. People have been burned by Halo enough to where picking Sunshine here made sense in a weird way. But.... it's Sunshine. SA2 demolishes Sunshine, tran --- Rufus Shinra survived a duel with Cloud and kicked all of our asses in the guru contest. |
red sox 777 | Posted 10/22/2010 9:17:20 PM | message detail |
Yeah,
if Mario Sunshine's trends are standard Nintendo, it's not out of this
yet. Although if Halo has 53% or higher at the end of the power hour,
it'll be pretty close to gone. The match looked a lot more winnable
before that latest update. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |
