Do we really think voters are that stupid?


Have you seen a contest poll with Link in it recently?

Yeah, people like him and they can recognize a pic of him.

LeonhartFour | Posted 12/10/2010 2:39:11 PM | message detail
51% exactly and a 600 vote lead.

Nice.

KH2 winning this also proves that just because a game from the same series got a higher seed doesn't mean it's going to be more favored in a contest poll (not that we already shouldn't have known this, but I just want to point it out).

WW > MM confirmed
Brawl > Melee confirmed
MGS3 to buck the trend

Yeah, I've always hated this, too. I don't want some match to be decided because someone thought it would be funny to make a bad pic.

Of course, Bacon still has to choose these silly pics, so it's not entirely the fault of the picmakers!

It wasn't "going out of our way" so much as "don't use Link". Zelda fans have proven several times over that they're completely untrustworthy drones, and make some pictures yourself if you don't like it. It's not like we're some unwelcoming, unhelpful community. yoblazer didn't even have Photoshop a week ago and now he's getting stuff picked. There were also a TON of pictures submitted on both sides of that match, and Allen just happened to choose ours. Go look at the now-closed topic before it purges at all the submission for it. I think KP and I get to enjoy an ironic musing afterwards. It's not like the match isn't a tossup that Majora could still win.

For Melee/Brawl, you seriously have nothing to worry about since Brawl is going to win anyway. I plan on doing a lot of even pictures.

Photoshop sucks at making straight lines. That picture has something like 15 layers, including a blank one near the top where I made all the lines zoomed in 500% with the pencil tool. You will take that crooked line and like it, or you can spend 3 hours making a Pokemon picture yourself :'(

Seriously I love Pokemon, but making pictures for it takes longer than every other game put together.

The two pics look pretty even to me. Not a great Zelda pic, but the Pokemon one is nothing too special either. I'm sure I'd be more impressed if I had any idea who those Pokemon were, but I don't, and many, many other people don't either.

those people probably weren't voting for Pokemon anyway. Anyone who played G/S/C knows who those Pokemon are. It's not like a Qwilfish pic or something.

Yeah, that's partially my point. Only the people who play Pokemon and know those characters will like the Pokemon pic better and we already knew their vote. Everyone else will like the Zelda pic better and vote Zelda like they were going to anyway. =)

I think this proves why GSC has the picture advantage, since Ho-oh('s me money) isn't in RBY.

KH2's ASV is better than TP's, last contest already showed this! Let's do this.

KH2 is up to 49.63% in the U.S. and 49.93% in North America overall. Got a good chance of eventually overtaking the U.S. and almost certainly will win North America, at the very least.

Melee has the tidal wave, but Brawl has giant versions of the two premier characters that Melee doesn't have. The pic also uses Brawl's Final Destination.

TP only showed weakness against Galaxy, and none of us can claim to know how strong Galaxy really is in this contest. TP's still the favorite next round.
