63.37% for Ike/Black Knight --- "Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!" "Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!" |
I'm not too sure why people thought Jill had a shot at winning this --- ~ Rivalry Rumble Oracle Challenge ~ Today's Prediction: Kirby/Meta Knight with 58.31% |
Yikes, that's one amazing early vote. --- 90s games > 00s games |
Kirby vs. Meta Knight 69.57% 48 Jill Valentine vs. Nemesis 30.43% 21 TOTAL VOTES 69 69 percent out of 69 votes, nice. --- "I am riding the Poke-wave, using the metaphorical Surf and hopping on my Blastoise, all the way to Mario vs Bowser." - RPGLord |
Okay yeah this is crossing the line from early vote to "Kirby vs. Sonic place your bets" (until tomorrow when Sonic scores 80%). --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Kirby is slowly coming back down. --- If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominos will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate. - Zapp Brannigan |
From: abdou | #293 I hope it will be! |
Well, I guess 3/3 great showings for Nintendo look great for Link. --- Yoblazer: http://i32.tinypic.com/zlf1w7.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
why did I make Jill/Nemesis a banner ...why did I make Ezio/The Pope a banner --- ~Zen |
Dat Nintendo Power Hour. --- "Getting lucky 100% of the time... it's called PRO SKILL." -BlAcK TuRtLe |
KamikazePotato posted... Okay yeah this is crossing the line from early vote to "Kirby vs. Sonic place your bets" (until tomorrow when Sonic scores 80%). As someone who picked Kirby next round, even I didn't expect him to do this well.. I thought like 62-63%. It may still drop down to there, but he's looking great. --- http://www.yourgamercards.net/trophy/a/RyanSaotome.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
...why did I make Ezio/The Pope a banner so I could know what the pope looks like --- For your BlAcK TuRtLe. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
This doesn't look good for my Global Saturation upset special. |
So, the one question I have to ask is this: Can I spin this as a positive result for Red/Blue? --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Impressive performance. So would this give credence to the idea that "rivalries matter?" Because there's no way Kirby doubles Jill 1-on-1. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |
Kirby isn't even falling. --- 90s games > 00s games |
Sonic better pray to God he gets a boost from Generations. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Okay yeah this is crossing the line from early vote to "Kirby vs. Sonic place your bets" (until tomorrow when Sonic scores 80%). More like fail to break 70% --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rival Rumble: 0/0 Today: Mario/Bowser & Ike/BK |
Because there's no way Kirby doubles Jill 1-on-1. OR IS THERE a way --- For your BlAcK TuRtLe. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
This
result REALLY makes me think that the games are important. No one on
GameFAQs has actually played Resident Evil 3 (sorry yo), and it shows. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Kirby vs. Meta Knight - 67.49% Kirby really stabilized those final few minutes. I wonder if he can hold up next update. --- http://www.yourgamercards.net/trophy/a/RyanSaotome.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
Huh, so Allen went with Conker > Ike. --- LM |
Man,
why did I lower my Oracle so much. I put my calculations in and got
something like 61-63%, realized it was a night match, but lowered it all
the way to 57% cause I thought the numbers were too high. --- "Ahem! There is *sand* on my *boot*!"--Kefka Black Turtle beat me, Yesmar in the Fall 2010 Guru Contest! |
Why are we acting like Sonic/Robotnik wouldn't or couldn't do this? Not really seeing a reason why they couldn't! --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |
This is terrible. That's a fitting debut for my debut in this contest season stats topic. --- :> |
You guys are way overestimating Jill --- I wish I could wear skirts and dresses :( -GMUN |
From: LeonhartFour | #316 Well, I suppose it's time for me to face the truth. RE3 (the one this rivalry stems from), while popular among the fanbase, is still a terribly weak game. Remember how disappointing RE2 was back in 2009? Yeah, RE2 would wreck RE3. Kirby/Meta Knight may simply be making people think about Melee/Brawl. And Melee/Brawl would more than double any old school RE game. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/ml36gl_th.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
Banked: 1063 Conker vs. The Great Mighty Poo: 11447 Ike vs. Black Knight: 5957 Banked: 1063 Rock Band 2: 11447 Deus Ex: 5957 Just as I figured, identical numbers for the second match of GotD and this contest. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
Calling it now: Sonik fails to triple the Catherines, leading tons of people to go with Kirby/MK > Sonik in their battle brackets. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
LeonhartFour posted... Impressive performance. So would this give credence to the idea that "rivalries matter?" Because there's no way Kirby doubles Jill 1-on-1. It's only 5 minutes into the match. Jill/Nemesis will almost assuredly make up some ground overnight. I fully expect Kirby to win, but I doubt this is going to be anywhere near a doubling by the time the morning vote hits. --- PSN - Aevio BlackMageJawa - "I'm on a Goomba." |
So basically, Red/Blue>Ryu/Ken, Sora/Riku>Dante/Vergil. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |

Apparently a contest is happening. Guess I can take this old sig off now. didn't think I was that fast at submitting a bracket as I'm in top 50 somehow. --- Black_Turtle is taking it alone as the Guru Champ, whatever that is. |
RE3 is a bad game. --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.· I take my hat off to myself. |
Yeah,
Kirby's got some freefalling to do before we're done here, but he's
probably going to land north of 60%, which is really good. --- 90s games > 00s games |
The Mana Sword posted... You guys are way overestimating Jill Jill got 32% on Samus, and Samus wipes her visor with Kirby. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Domination is a running theme in this contest so far. --- Official Queen ***** of the Universe! |
From: KamikazePotato | #332 NOT SO FAST Let's not jump to the conclusion that Red/Blue's going to "out-rival" Ryu/Ken here! --- http://i.imgur.com/fe05x.png http://i.imgur.com/stNJf.png |
not much of a drop --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rival Rumble: 2/2 Today: Kirby/Meta Knight & Sonic/Robotnik |
Just remember, no matter how bad this match ends up being... It would've been worse during the day. --- http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab48/Leonhart4/Squall.jpg |
Everyone has played RBY. Street Fighter II, at least on GameFAQs, is significantly less popular. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
From: KamikazePotato | #344 "Less popular" =/= "Less played" But this doesn't mean people will magically care about Red/Blue more regardless. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
Damn, great second update for Kirby. Also, if anything, this makes Ryu/Ken > Trainers look more likely, IMO. The SF duo should benefit more from the rivalry factor than just about anyone else. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |

I
don't think you can really use the "low playrate" argument for Street
Fighter 2. Thats one of those games nearly everyone has played before
too. --- http://www.yourgamercards.net/trophy/a/RyanSaotome.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
Everyone has played RBY. Street Fighter II, at least on GameFAQs, is significantly less popular. Wait why would a significant amount of people that have played RBY but not Street Fighter vote Ryu > Red then see this is as a rivalry contest and switch to Red/Blue > Ryu/Ken? --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rival Rumble: 2/2 Today: Kirby/Meta Knight & Sonic/Robotnik |
But this doesn't mean people will magically care about Red/Blue more regardless. Playrate + popularity = more rivalry power. It's pretty simple! --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
