For
what it's worth, I checked a half hour ago, and there was no 4chan
rally, so Pokemon probably would have been coming back regardless. We'll have to wait on the SNV (if 4chan doesn't just cancel it out) to see if they made a difference. --- "Ahem! There is *sand* on my *boot*!"--Kefka Dr. Football beat me, Yesmar in the 2010 Guru Contest! |

Wow, I love it when my totally correct picks get ruined by 4chan Awesome We'll see how much it ends up winning by. I don't think 4chan will end up mattering in the end. --- Rs Name: I g g l y - Skill Total - 2100+ - Combat level 130, 309/309 Quest Points |

Who wins between FFX and FF6? X in possibly a doubling. FF6 is awful now and is only going to get worse every year. I'd probably take IX over it. |

From: MegatokyoEd | #106 In the Villains Contest? He faced Ridley, M. Bison, and Kefka. Of course he's going to look halfway decent at day. He didn't do much of anything against Ganon, Kratos Aurion, or Sonic. --- Support Squirtle (Pokemon R/B/Y) for Character Battle IX! http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/8463/banner2squirtle.jpg |

From: AppreciateTrees | #107 Also people that have played it probably don't like it, especially since world of ruin sucks so much ass --- _foolmo_ 'and they established that 5 minutes = 1 hour, which means 10 hours = 12000 hours' - Anagram |

And yeah it'd be nice if it were on an actual console, but I doubt that will ever happen. --- "Of course I'm going to rig the contest in my favor." - SBAllen |

Wasn't Diablo the exact opposite? This is actually a popular fallacy. Diablo only owned the day against people like Kefka and M. Bison. The day hours were Ridley's best, and Ganondorf collapsed with the SNV against him. --- "Ahem! There is *sand* on my *boot*!"--Kefka Dr. Football beat me, Yesmar in the 2010 Guru Contest! |

rally, so Pokemon probably would have been coming back regardless. We'll have to wait on the SNV (if 4chan doesn't just cancel it out) to see if they made a difference. If its like a 150 vote difference or less (which is about the amount Pokemon cut/gained during that massive vote intake boost), then we can say 4chan may have made a difference. If it ends up like 200+, then Pokemon woulda won regardless. --- http://i.neoseeker.com/ca/fallout_new_vegas_conceptart_7XvFK.jpg |

Plus, here's Diablo II last year. Round 1: Time | Diablo II EBV | 24.91% PHV | 28.66% FNV | 30.37% BSV | 27.42% DSV | 26.32% ASV | 25.32% SNV | 27.26% Round 2: Time | Diablo II EBV | 20.82% PHV | 24.22% FNV | 27.85% BSV | 25.90% DSV | 26.56% ASV | 22.65% SNV | 25.28% So yeah, I'm fairly confident WC3 would've won a night match, although it's in that "too close to call" range. --- Support Otacon (Metal Gear Solid) for Character Battle IX! http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/1950/banner4otacon.jpg |

FFVI is excellent till the WoR, nowhere near FFX though. And yeah, good game. Hopefully RSE cruises from here so it doesn't end up being 4chan's result. --- I predict and analyse the Game of the Decade contest here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/56817040 |

Also,
vote totals are pretty good right now. Highest vote total up to this
point in a match except for TF2/Fable, and it's just barely behind that
pace. --- http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/2369/mythbattlers.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/Sensui22/1248835958206.png |

I don't know the percentages, but there was a lot of GTA hype going around the last couple days. I, on the other hand, decided to stick with RSE. |

Talking
about these vote totals, I sure hope this doesn't make C-net go back to

these have all been one point affairs that we're ****ing up. Still, its

Luckily these have all been one point affairs that we're ****ing up. Hmmm if RSE comes through, I'll probably end up losing 2 points anyway, since I have it getting past SMG in the second round. |

From: UltimaterializerX | #136 I'm getting pretty annoyed with getting almost all the tossups wrong. Only TF2 > Fable worked out. Hey, it could be worse. You could be like me - miss over half of those matches AND have Sunshine > SA2 as a Round 3 match. ...I told myself to take Halo out of that part of the division, but for some reason I never got around to doing it.

Pssh. I'll trade you all the toss-ups I got right for SMS/Halo. Everything I got right is losing in the next round anyway. |
