now that MM is the most popular game of the last ten years here, you guys all have to nominate Happy Mask Salesman.

He couldn't be weaker than Midna, right? (don't answer this)

You're going to give someone the bright idea to nominate Fierce Deity Link.

Mew2king is one of the best brawl players, though as a person his social life is in question.
Even he does not like Brawl.

Melee > Brawl hurt for me too, since even though I didn't mind the result itself, Melee is somewhat deserving of GotD while Brawl isn't at all. But definitely better than most other games in the bracket. I voted for it against everything aside from Melee, Fallout 3, and Majora's Mask (IMO Melee > Wind Waker > Brawl > Twilight Princess).

To be completely fair, m2k legitimately has Aspergers so it's not fair to question his social life. Not Aspergers like what the internet thinks, either, he legitimately has it. I've met him, and there are times where he'll have a fit of whatever emotion he's flooded with at the time and people just need to leave him alone until he calms down. Don't laugh and assume he's just some weirdo, either, because someone having uncontrollable anger over a video game like he's prone to do isn't exactly his fault. Dude was just born that way.

Now all this said, people in the community genuinely like the guy and enjoy his company. It's not like Lucas (Inui) where the entire community wants him to go away.

What do you think would be the result of a RBY/SMB match? I know that following the stats RBY is supposed to destroy that match, but I sort of feel that SMB can do strange things with games unless it runs into it's own series.

This sort of proves GameFAQs still loves nostalgia games, even starting off this decade. A game most developed last decade is going to be winning this contest, and is in effect one of the oldest games in the contest.

At least that is somewhat good news for FF7 and Chrono fans; they can continue to expect to be at the top of their game.

MM powering towards 1500, I see. It might not, but Brawl will probably try something in a few hours so it's good for MM to build up that lead.

I would have never expected Majora's Mask to be stronger than TP. But, if it can beat FFX, then I guess that's the case, regardless of of possible rallied votes carrying this game over SSBB.

Wander sucks because he's completely unrecognisable and you don't even hear his name said once in-game. Also every region knows him as something different. Worst possible example you could have used.

Skull Kid on the other hand, is basically the symbol of MM. Everyone knows who he is. I can definitely see him being a strong Zelda character, and leagues ahead of Epona.

Best part is, all 3 of them were so out of contention that I managed to win despite getting a semifinal and final wrong.

Well when 70% of us have it losing in round 3...

Like I said before, it's kinda fitting how the 2 games that destroyed a lot of our brackets are facing each other in the final match.
And how Majora's Mask was so underrated as a Zelda game that we all underrated it in the contest and never thought once that it could win it all.

Excellent Results!

You probably should. MM has just about equaled FFX's largest lead from yesterday, but unlike FFX, it has a great day vote and has most people here backing it and ready to rally if need be. Contest is done.

Consume.

I'm just worried after seeing KH vs. KH2. There is no way any game should be able to gain 2% on KH with the ASV, but KH2 did it. IMO, there's a pretty big difference between Brawl's day vote and MM's too.

Day vote tiers

NES Nintendo = SNES Square
SNES Nintendo = PS1 Square
N64 Nintendo
Modern Nintendo = Kingdom Hearts

Like I said before, it's kinda fitting how the 2 games that destroyed a lot of our brackets are facing each other in the final match.

Except that over 50% on the gurus had Brawl in the final match, Brawl reaching here was expected.

This is why Melee whiners are the worst whiners of the contest. First of all none of the other whiners continued whining over a week of the actual match and second the people whining actually know better, this isn't a bunch of random people that don't know anything about the contest, these are some of the most intelligent stats guys that actually knew the match could go either way.

Brawl won because it had more votes.

SSBB hasn't made any moves yet. It needs to average about 51.7% (what MM has now) over the remainder of the poll to catch up. It's basically over but KH/KH2 makes me not completely comfortable yet. Finish the evil bane of good gameplay, Link.
