Well, GSC doesn't look as much like a midcarder anymore.

MM obviously a beast hidden in plain sight, but it still got embarassed two years ago. Evidently something's changed.

No RBY to hit it with the SFF bug, basically.

Do people really think it can pull this on Brawl when it couldn't on Wind Waker of all things?

FFX just sucks in the day. This is the first time it's seen daylight. Just to give you some perspective, FFIX bled percentage in the day to Persona 3. FF is a joke in the day, Brawl isn't.

Plus Brawl is big in Europe so that'll help the night vote.

From: Wii_TuRtLe | #057
Actually, Kettch re-ran the numbers, and I'm 111 points up on fett, who only gets 96 points if Majora wins today and tomorrow. If Majora wins this, I win the Guru no matter what happens tomorrow. Don Machiaveli wins if FFX beats Brawl, but I win the other 2 possibilities.


Didn't re-run the numbers. People just missed my post saying he was eliminated yesterday I guess. :P

Nothing against MM (I've played it more times than most games in the series), but I can't get behind a Zelda comeback. Especially against the strongest FF I really like. =/

fett was listed as alive on NGamer's site. I was confused and checked his bracket which had MM winning, so I figured that must be right.

It's looking that way now. But it's still inexplicable that people liked RBY enough to vote for it over MGS and MM... yet never bothered to pick up the sequel - which it sounds like most folks think is better - and vote for it this contest.

RBY being a lot stronger than GSC isn't surprising at all.

The real question is: what happened in that Round 2 match? That might be our first real, quantified case of rSFF.

N changed it about 5 minutes ago. It's funny, because when we were recording The Show last night, we made a point of mentioning that fett would win if Majora took the whole shebang. Funny that everyone missed Kettch's post.
HaRRicH | Posted 12/22/2010 1:43:26 PM | message detail
Gotcha' then.

Well, damn good show LoZ:MM -- here's our new star of the contest. I guess we still have yet to see if LoZ:MM could outdo LoZ:TP, technically, but at this point I'm more worried about a LoZ-game on the N64 in the finals against a SSB-game on the Wii. I think yo brought this up first, and it might be an ugly truth -- especially if SSBB looked bad this round because of backlash. I still think we may be underestimating FO:NV's effect on FO3 or how close these games come together when you don't have LoZ:OoT/FF7 towering over everything, but LoZ:MM looks quite threatening...and this is after FFX finally showing it's a rightful threat.

Either that or RBY will take a drop moving from 4-ways to 1 on 1 as well.

Hail to the king.

Personally I prefer LTTP Link the most. How incredibly courageous is it that his true form is a rabbit? And that rabbit will look you straight in the eyes as you prepare some monstrous high level magic spell and force you to run away through sheer presence of will.

If you asked me yesterday, I would have said that FFX was going to beat Brawl. Ask me now, I think Brawl has this either way. MM being stronger than TP seems really counter-intuitive to me, and I'm not sure if I buy this OoT proxy stuff.
LOLContests | Posted 12/22/2010 1:45:38 PM | message detail
Upon further investigation, the 4chan rally topic has been active this whole time, I've just missed it. So I would place high hundreds in the lead that MM needs to reach to be considered legit, which at this rate looks pretty possible.

if RBY was a four-way wonder, it would have done better in that R2 match. It did significantly worse.

In fact, RBY's best performance by far was the Round 1 match that resembled 1 v 1 the most.
