is this the first match where being a day/night match very clearly led to one game winning? --- xyzzy |

This contest? Likely so. Since this format came out? I'd go with Crono/Missingno, though it's hard to be conclusive there. --- Epona: your #1 bet to cause great/terrible upsets in CB9. |

From: LeonhartFour | #053 Yeah I looked at the match updater and saw the cut and was like "ok". Then I saw a topic that Pokemon had the lead and looked again. Holy ****. --- http://img.imgcake.com/drakeryn/tiroalecjpgap.jpg |

Well,
it's hard to say with this contest because we don't really know trends
for some of these games. I'm pretty sure Warcraft 3 would've won a
night match though. Elder Scrolls has a good day vote, and Warcraft has
a terrible day vote and a good night vote. --- Support Seifer Almasy (Final Fantasy VIII) for Character Battle IX! http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/9342/banner3seifer.jpg |

I mean obviously, not "I think". I don't think any day/night match really mattered last year. I don't think one is any more cut and dry than Warcraft/Morrowind would be. Even if GTA built up a lead over night, I don't see why Pokemon wouldnt just do this same thing with the morning vote, especially since this'll likely end up with a few hundred vote win. --- http://i.neoseeker.com/ca/fallout_new_vegas_conceptart_7XvFK.jpg |

a
terrible day vote would mean that it should do a lot better during that
12-3 time period, and WC3 was anything but dominant during that time.
Morrowind didn't mow WC3 over come the day vote either. Pokemon is
flattening GTA right now despite it having a clear 51-49 edge in the
12-3 hours. --- xyzzy |

YEah, you don't gain like 80 votes an update for pokemon if this was legit. Hell, I'm wondering if its stuffing as well. --- http://i.neoseeker.com/ca/fallout_new_vegas_conceptart_7XvFK.jpg |
transients | Posted 11/1/2010 1:49:42 PM | message detail |
but
this rally is only happening because it's one of the more overhated
games in recent memory in GTA4. I wouldn't expect any random Pokemon
game to get this (until the final rounds, anyway) --- xyzzy |

Fable probably wins in a 24 hour match, but that's it. Dante has a decent shot at beating Ryu in a 24 hour match, and I suppose that Wesker might have won as well (who knows how the vote trends go in that match.), but that's it for the character contest, IMO. --- "Ahem!

From: transients | #077 Morrowind's day vote is good pretty much all day though, regardless of demographic. World of Warcraft was pretty bad pretty much all day, regardless of demographic. Time | Oblivion | Symphonia | MGS3 | WoW EBV | 23.03% | 23.98% | 33.67% | 19.31% PHV | 22.14% | 22.43% | 33.15% | 22.29% FNV | 23.02% | 19.84% | 33.07% | 24.07% BSV | 24.65% | 19.83% | 30.90% | 24.61% DSV | 26.03% | 19.68% | 31.58% | 22.70% ASV | 25.90% | 21.35% | 30.96% | 21.80% SNV | 25.99% | 22.00% | 30.78% | 21.23% Here's Elder Scrolls vs. WoW, trends shouldn't be too much different from Morrowind/WC3. --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?"

Fable probably wins in a 24 hour match, but that's it. Oh right, thats another one that easily turns if it was a night match. Fable dominated that one in Europe. --- http://i.neoseeker.com/ca/fallout_new_vegas_conceptart_7XvFK.jpg |
LeonhartFour | Posted 11/1/2010 1:51:11 PM | message detail |
Also,
Morrowind clearly started doing better once we got into ASV, and it
started doing clearly worse when we got into night vote range. In a
close match, there isn't a whole lot of swing, but you can see the
percentages shift. --- Support Barret Wallace (Final Fantasy VII) for Character Battle IX! http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/3834/banner1barret.jpg |

From: transients | #093 Eh, I doubt it's much different. WC3 was clearly doing better during the DSV and the night vote than during the ASV. Morrowind built up that 500-600 vote lead entirely with the ASV. It didn't do a thing during any other time. --- http://i.imgur.com/CbfFb.jpg |

Here's Elder Scrolls vs. WoW, trends shouldn't be too much different from Morrowind/WC3. WoW != WC3 Warcraft 3 has the massive potential for that time from because of all the people who play DoTA and HoN among other mods. --- Did you know that? No? Neither did i. |
