From: Gaddswell | #192 Persona hate, Civilization recognition or the fat that the slight majority of the Gurus have Civ IV winning and they were bracket voting --- ~ Ange |

I
don't care so much about my main bracket because I'm convinced my late
game picks will get me close to prizes, so right now it's all about
cheering on my battle bracket. Come onnnn Dead Rising don't you ****ing fail me. --- http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae229/yungflyerz/67106910.jpg |

vcharon | Posted 11/7/2010 9:14:03 PM | message detail |
Civilization
was the slight favorite going in, so bracket voting was the likely
culprit. It's still too early to call it officially, but if this next
update is another bad one for Civ it's probably going to be over.
Persona will easily win Europe and Asia, and NA is too dead even to
swing it for Civ in a close match. --- :> |

If
this is even remotely close when I get up in the morning, I will be all
hype over Civ making a comeback in the daylight hours when, y'know,
people are actually awake. I'm sure there's plenty of Civ night owls
out there, but there's probably more across the seas voting for
Persona. Let's see where we stand in 8 hours. If the lead is under 300,
Civ is totally coming back from that. |

Lousy DST, always screwing things up when I least expect. Lucky it was a debated match so I was around to check. Looks like Persona wins it, it's killing in Europe for some reason, and overnight trends are more predictable due to geolocation (whereas day trends typically are not). --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

my favorite game is Alpha Centauri, but it's just a spinoff of the main
series. Civ II is my favorite of the mainline. --- This too shall pass. |
PegasusLover123 | Posted 11/7/2010 9:21:15 PM | message detail |
So i dont fully understand whats happening here. You guys initially sounded like Civ was gonna crush Persona yet despite supposedly stealing the board vote, its still losing? Was Civ supposed to blow Persona outta the water? --- "If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh." -Magus |

I still think Dead Rising is the slight favorite against TWEWY. What do you guys think? Unlike Civ, I think people on this site might actually like Dead Rising... so yeah, I still feel ok about that pick. --- For your health. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |

Dead
Rising has never looked good in a poll. TWEWY has looked okay in polls.
Neku would also beat Frank West. Top option. I'm betting on TWEWY. --- DFF |

Aitch Emm the are the battle stats updated? Coz it's saying you've got all your **** at risk here. Battle stats page shows the results only to the end of the previous match. It doesn't include his bank on the current match until it ends so it still says the points are at risk. --- "Let me believe what you've always believed! That living is wonderful!"
