That big update for Dead Rising was TWEWY going from 50.01% to 49.25% in North America over the past 10 minutes. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |

BAM. This is lookin real good for dead rising fun fact. This gen casuals outnumber hardcore gamers by a huge amount. Much larger than even the previous generation. And it shows with dead rising doing this well in a night match --- Currently playing: SC2, Civ 5 Next up: eh ; Awaiting: meh |

And
yeah people, stop saying this is over. TWEWY will have all night and
early morning to build a lead. Obviously DR would do fine during a
heavy NA time like the power hour. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/11/500x_vegasdude.jpg |

From: ExThaNemesis | #303 But it probably is. I voted for TWEWY but it's pretty evident what's going to happen. I admit I'm surprised the game hung in there this long. --- :> |

Agent J didn't get that 8% advantage. --- The Gamer In Me In December 2010, a new guru will rise. |
Greyfeld | Posted 11/9/2010 9:48:52 PM | message detail |
Nope, its 8%. Which can be very important 8% of the people who can't choose a game after considering the games, the franchises, the genres, the developers, and the match pics, and still feel the need to vote. If you can prove to me that the number of people that fit that description is more than 1%, then I'll admit you have a point. Until then, you're just working with percentages that have zero context. |
ExThaNemesis | Posted 11/9/2010 9:49:23 PM | message detail |
From: vcharon | #313 Dude, that update was an anomaly. Things are going back to stall-stall-stall next, and eventually TWEWY is going to start consistently winning them. If it's ahead by enough to hold on once North America wakes up, we'll have to see. I have to say I'm impressed at it doing so well at this point though. --- http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae229/yungflyerz/67106910.jpg |

heavy NA time like the power hour. You fail to realize that this entire time, TWEWY's Euro support has been plummeting. It started near 60% and now it's below 53% --- Completely decimated by Dr. Football in the Guru Contest! |

Agent J didn't get that 8% advantage. Top option only matters in fodder vs fodder matches. Agent J was in a match with Link. Link wasn't fodder back then (Though that is debatable nowadays) |

Okay, that was totally not what I expected to see. Looks like TWEWY might hold on to the end of the Power Hour. --- I predict and analyse the Game of the Decade contest here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/56817040 |

TWEWY's going to need like 400-500 to be solid once the morning comes. --- http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae229/yungflyerz/67106910.jpg |
vcharon | Posted 11/9/2010 9:52:02 PM | message detail |
I
just highly doubt TWEWY can win already in a hole in North America and
not convincingly winning Europe. It's percentage has been rapidly
dropping there. 52% in Europe is not going to win it this match against
North America which is going to be pushing towards 51-52% itself. --- :> |
IngmarBirdman | Posted 11/9/2010 9:52:21 PM | message detail |
Arrrgh I hate Europe this contest. Everything from nudging Deus Ex to massively undervoting TWEWY. Normally they go ga-ga over RPG's and vote against splashy U.S. favorites... but not this RPG. South America is more for TWEWY, wth is that? --- "I skate when I want to!" -Benjamin Franklin (http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=264) |
NoDicePwn | Posted 11/9/2010 9:53:08 PM | message detail |
TWEWY's going to need like 400-500 to be solid once the morning comes. I'd be honestly surprised if its not. Its gonna rock that night vote. I think 600-700 is more realistic. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/11/500x_vegasdude.jpg |

Why
are we assuming DR handily wins the morning vote to turn around a
decent deficit? The trends Luster Posted had Freank West pegged as an
ASV thing through and through. --- DFF |

man. I miss the days when we didn't have all this information so that people didn't overanalyze it to hell. just wait -- the California BSV will save TWEWY --- xyzzy |
ExThaNemesis | Posted 11/9/2010 9:53:50 PM | message detail |
Anything under 400 and I think Dead Rising will kill it once morning comes. --- http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae229/yungflyerz/67106910.jpg |

has spent this first hour basically falling off from its board vote. I
have yet to see any evidence it will "rock" the night vote. --- :> |

transience | Posted 11/9/2010 9:57:21 PM | message detail |
I'm
cool with speculating on things that matter, but this stuff? most of it
doesn't even mean anything. TWEWY was winning early and Europe had 60%,
so obviously it was Europe. one update later and it was down to 53%.
then we have the California vote which has never meant anything besides
in a Street Fighter match. I just want people to use data that has meaning, you know? --- xyzzy |
-LusterSoldier- | Posted 11/9/2010 9:57:38 PM | message detail |
I
wouldn't really call anything based on those last two updates. North
America's influence is still pretty strong right now. I have some more
advanced information about the continent poll on this page: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=0AgBWiYjlMLwYdHpEYmJDdktneHBQQXNoVXdLcUY3cEE&gid=1 North America has no problem continuously drawing in at least 85% of the votes until 1:15 AM. It's right around 2:00 AM that North America slowly starts dropping off. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |

you're crazy. This makes it more fun. People throwing out a bunch of
data that ends up being nothing is priceless, and I make sure to take
part in it every time! --- DFF |
