Haha. Sounds about right. --- Pobody's nerfect. |
From: LeonhartFour | #098 It's okay, he's well known for shooting blanks. --- ##Alec |

pjbasis posted... If Link gets under 80 percent in the first hour I'm calling time of death. I second this. --- "Claire likes to say 'You can be part of the problem, or part of the solution.' But I happen to believe you can be both." - Phil Dunphy |
pjbasis posted... If Link gets under 80 percent in the first hour I'm calling time of death. Its not like that didn't happen last year to a Warcraft character and he still won the contest. I'm looking forward to all the people calling doom for Link just because he replicates his performance against Thrall last year. I'd only start worrying if he struggles to triple Arthas. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
AlecTrevelyan006 posted... From: LeonhartFour | #098 yoblazer is waiting for fire off yet another salvo shot. It's okay, he's well known for shooting blanks. lol ok, i gotta admit, that was pretty good xD --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
X, Chris, Terra, Mario, Ryu, Sub-Zero, etc. weren't easily pushing for or achieving 80 last contest either! Today's 80 percent is not 2010's 80 percent. edit: Pokemon freaking Red! |
From: AlecTrevelyan006 | #102 shots (mis)fired --- It will launch for $350 with some Wii Sports s***. I bet my life on it. Damn, that KoolAid guy is awesome - NGamer64 |
Man,
all we have to do is get through these next two days of horribly boring
matches, and the SHOWDOWN OF ROUND ONE will be upon us. Huh, I just realized that Phoenix/Gordon is on a Sunday. Not sure if that'll affect anything or not. --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |
Link/Arthas might be the most lopsided pic so far - and yet Link should still get a sextupling. From: LeonhartFour | #044 It kind of is though. FFX SPOILERS Auron's whole thing is to get Tidus to fight Sin/Jecht. Yeah it's to save his friend's soul or whatever, but his entire scheming for the whole game still revolves on fighting him. END FFX SPOILERS Plus it doesn't matter - Auron/Jecht as a team would just be a lot stronger than Tidus/Jecht. Because it's Auron and not Tidus. There's no comparison. That's why I was asking if Auron/Jecht could beat the Bosses. I think it would be close. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
I
don't think Auron/Jecht would be noticeably stronger just because you
plug a stronger character in because voters will recognize that it isn't
a rivalry. I mean, unless you don't believe in Rivalries Matter, then that's a fair assumption to make. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
If Link gets under 80 percent in the first hour I'm calling time of death. In other words do your civic duty and vote Link! --- "Getting lucky 100% of the time... it's called PRO SKILL." -BlAcK TuRtLe |
From: FateStayAlbion | #059 I think the Arthas/Illidan pic looks real good and I don't know anything about the characters. From: LeonhartFour | #071 I nommed them, and I would have expected them to make it too. Sucks they didn't. Would've been one of the top rivalries in the x-stats probably. From: HaRRicH | #081 Jecht has absolutely no need for Dissidia to beat Tidus. Now I'm not saying Jecht would beat Tidus, I don't think he would, but I doubt Dissidia would make much difference. Jecht was very memorable in FFX and I'm sure plenty of FFX fans would vote him over Tidus. From: FateStayAlbion | #107 As I've stated since before the contest, when you have TWO characters who are both stronger than their opponents, blowouts will be exaggerated. You cannot equate this to Link vs. Arthas 1v1. Link and Ganon are both light years beyond Arthas/whatever. If Link can't get 80% he's probably ****ed. But that's not going to happen. Link will destroy this poll, bad pic or not. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Man,
it's strange to see that we still have nearly 9% of brackets still
perfect almost halfway through the first round. I'm sure we'll lose a
big chunk of them on this match, but that's still pretty crazy. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
From: LeonhartFour | #113 But...it is kind of a rivalry, plus Auron is soooo much stronger than Tidus. And at the very least Auron and Jecht are very, very closely associated with each other. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
From: creativename | #117 So are Cloud and Aerith, but that doesn't make them rivals! Or Cloud and Zack, Squall and Laguna, or whatever other pairing you want to throw in there! As an FFX fan, I wouldn't vote for Auron/Jecht over that much because it's not much of a rivalry. --- http://img.imgcake.com/nio/26leonpngat.png http://img.imgcake.com/nio/daigohadoupnguj.png |
Let's
be honest. Would Link's pic ever actually matter. I feel like if you're
gonna vote Link or not is never decided by the picture. Same with
Mario. |
From: TheOneAboveAll | #119 There are still weirdos who insist Link only lost to Cloud in 2003 because of Wind Waker pics! --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |

Ganon isn't in Skyward Sword(he's not even born yet), so we can't use pictures from that game for his match pics --- http://www.yourgamercards.net/trophy/a/NathanDrake90.png |
It's
somewhat of a shame how Tidus/Jecht had to go up against Big Boss/The
Boss so early. I think they might actually be my two favorite rivalries
in the whole contest. I don't love FFX all too much, and I have only played MGS3 partway (though I know more about the story than that), but they really are quality parent (figure)/child (figure) rivalries. Lots of resentment and love- complicated further by trying circumstances, shared goals with contrasting attitudes, et cetera. Most of the entries have silent protagonists, overused characters, or simple villains in them. So, I voted for Tidus/Jecht just because they were getting less votes.. --- Fear is the science that turns nightmares into fantasy. - Rethcir |

Just cause I wanna see him lose doesn't mean I won't vote for him! |
Link over 85% now He come to town --- http://img.imgcake.com/leonpngpe.png http://img.imgcake.com/squalloweenpngem.png |
Wondering how Yoblazer turns this into a warning salvo. --- http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/984/rvpi.jpg "I was wrong" - SmartMuffin |

lol, Link is going up just now. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
Link looking pretty good. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 16/16 Today: Link/Ganondorf & Amaterasu/Orochi |
He's going for 90! |
considering Arthas' awful board vote this should go back down to 81 or 82 --- ~ Rivalry Rumble Oracle Challenge ~ Rank - 22nd Today's Prediction: Bosses - 56.62% |
Did Link actually lose the early board vote? Did people here anti-vote him that badly? |
87% I f***ing hate this site. --- http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/984/rvpi.jpg "I was wrong" - SmartMuffin |
Heh, guess I was wrong to doubt Link here. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
Looking good Link. --- Pokemon VGC2011 NW Regional - Top 8 Pokemon VGC2011 US Nationals - 54th place |
Wow, over half the battle brackets banked or picked Tidus/Jecht on that last match. We lost about 200 perfects. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
What did Mario end up with? |
55.06% for the Bosses Looks like they were the faves after all --- http://i43.tinypic.com/dgwh0.gif http://www.majhost.com/gallery/atukam/OHWD/snownd.gif |
only 30 banked, so we lost a lot of them --- thelefty for analysis crew 2008 imo -tranny I have a third degree burn in flame-o-nomics -Sir Chris |
pjbasis posted... What did Mario end up with? 85,36% --- Link's is pretty much the video game equivalent of the Jesus story. -- Yoblaser |
We lost about 500 perfects in the regular bracket. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
86% with THAT picture. Link is back! --- "Getting lucky 100% of the time... it's called PRO SKILL." -BlAcK TuRtLe |
LeonhartFour posted... 55.06% for the Bosses Looks like they were the faves after all I gotta say, the casuals have been much more savvy this year. --- "Claire likes to say 'You can be part of the problem, or part of the solution.' But I happen to believe you can be both." - Phil Dunphy |
