Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1017
Awesome it's going under 60 for sure. |
 |
This is looking pretty crap for Portal. --- :> |
Under 60% at the freeze Unless they rise to high heaven from here, not givin' ChellDOS much of a chance of winning this division. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |
well, Chell/GlaDOS starting to look very unimpressive, here --- ~ Rivalry Rumble Oracle Challenge ~ Rank - 25th Today's Prediction: AlucardraculA - 58.88% |
ended
up switching to Ness for spread because of people in here thinking Ness
could make this close; feeling good about it so far. --- Leafs / Raptors / Blue Jays / TFC / Argos / Tottenham [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Ness was making them bleed there at the end. This might not be over lol. --- Ngirl is a toll bridge - Wigs Gotta pay if you want to come inside! - Ngirl |
Glados won the last minute by a single vote. Not a good sign for a strong finishing %, even with the night ahead. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Well...this isn't good. Might as well say bye to my bracket. I had the Portal team winning the division. --- Keeping this until Casey Mears wins his 2nd Nascar Cup race. 7/7/07 Yankees Fan. Jaguars Fan. Mark Sanchez Wannabe. |
From: Achromatic | #192 Son of a b****. I'm going to have to keep going, aren't I. =( --- "whats a matter afried i might boobs punch you" - ertyu |
IIRC didn't Portal have a really good board vote in GOTD? --- Starcraft is my life, so without it I wouldn't exist. - Artosis |
Portal's board vote is, if I remember correctly, insane. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I was never worried about this division anyways. |
From: KamikazePotato | #197 All the remaining perfects really understand the contest. Most are probably B8 regulars or follow the boards. I don't think we'll be losing very many perfects at all on that match (assuming it goes as expected). We'll probably maintain 100+ perfects into the R2 matches. I don't think we'll see big chunks of perfects go down until we hit R3 and the Trainers/Fighters match. Basically, this is a very predictable contest, and B8ers are good at predicting the predictable. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/ml36gl_th.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
Portal has joke vote trends, doesn't it? I hope this means good things for Ness --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
Even if the Portal duo drop down to 50/50, they still have the night vote to fall back on. --- "Ahem! There is *sand* on my *boot*!"--Kefka This is Yesmar. |
Magus/Frog will probably look like crap and the debate over this division can continue on. --- :> |
Portal
lost the board vote pretty badly to RE4. It rocked it against Gears 2,
FFXII, and ME1, but none of those games are exactly known for good board
votes. --- http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/7760/222bj.jpg |
If
this follows the same trends as Ness's night match vs. Big Daddy last
contest though, he'll look awful during the night. In that match, Ness
went from almost 52% at the 10-minute mark to 45.6% at the end of the
match --- ~ Rivalry Rumble Oracle Challenge ~ Rank - 25th Today's Prediction: AlucardraculA - 58.88% |
From: FateStayAlbion | #214 Not really. --- http://i.imgur.com/CbfFb.jpg |
XIII_rocks posted... From: Achromatic | #192 Only 2 battle perfects got last match wrong. Son of a b****. I'm going to have to keep going, aren't I. =( Alucard vs. Dracula 67.82% Really low prediction for the brackets though... it seems everyone left in the battle challenge knows what they're doing :/ --- "I am riding the Poke-wave, using the metaphorical Surf and hopping on my Blastoise, all the way to Mario vs Bowser." - RPGLord |
LeonhartFour posted... From: FateStayAlbion | #214 Portal has joke vote trends, doesn't it? Not really. Maybe I'm just thinking of the Cube matches then. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
From: vcharon | #216 If Magus/Frog look like crap, then Alucard/Drac got it. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
Portal has troll trends. --- http://img.imgcake.com/alecoweenpngam.png http://img.imgcake.com/alecpngym.png |
I can't believe the Guru cookie is still perfect. We need some upsets to chew on this contest. --- http://objection.mrdictionary.net/go.php?n=5364544 |
GlaDOS
lost the board vote to Kirby and Portal lost it to RE4. It's good out
the gate, but still normal. Not joke-like or anything. --- Yoblazer: http://i32.tinypic.com/zlf1w7.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
Don't forget Ness has a pretty good board vote too. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 21/22 Today: Chell/GlaDOS & Frog/Magus |
junk_funk posted... I can't believe the Guru cookie is still perfect. We need some upsets to chew on this contest. Is the cookie just the majority pick for each battle? --- Inter-planetary-mega-stellar-hydro-static. There's no gravity between us. Our love is automatic. |
A slight % dip there. Might have a good oracle today. Went for 56.something. --- "I wish I was French." - blindhobo13 "I don't think you know what "French" means." - As I Desire |
From: SabrielAbhorsen | #228 yep --- "The great fallacy is that the game is first and foremost about winning. It's nothing of the kind. The game is about glory." - Danny Blanchflower |
So. Uh. What does everybody have for Pac/Crash? I picked Pac in my bracket but this contest has made me feel bad about that. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
From: SabrielAbhorsen | #228 Yep. --- http://i52.tinypic.com/2zfiu09.gif http://i54.tinypic.com/10729w2.gif |
if that's the best ChellDOS can do, they might do worse on Frog/Magus than Raiden/Vamp will --- ~ Rivalry Rumble Oracle Challenge ~ Rank - 25th Today's Prediction: AlucardraculA - 58.88% |
From: KamikazePotato | #231 It's kinda concerned me from the beginning how quickly everyone kind of tossed this one aside and didn't think it was worth discussing. But Pac-Man's the safe pick. --- http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/8718/leonflowchart.png |
Has Crash ever done anything worthwhile in anything ever? --- http://img.imgcake.com/drakeryn/alecjpguz.jpg |
Will people even consider Pac-man vs. a single ghost to be a proper rivalry? Is he even that much stronger than Crash? It just gives me a very bad feeling. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KamikazePotato posted... So. Uh. What does everybody have for Pac/Crash? I picked Pac in my bracket but this contest has made me feel bad about that. Pac-Man/Blinky I'm banking that N. Cortex is just enough of an anchor to give Pac-Man the win. --- Look in my eyes, what do you see? |
Crash did 'good' in 2008 and 2010. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KamikazePotato posted... So. Uh. What does everybody have for Pac/Crash? I picked Pac in my bracket but this contest has made me feel bad about that. I have Pac, thats the majority I believe. I'm pretty confident in it. --- Keeping this until Casey Mears wins his 2nd Nascar Cup race. 7/7/07 Yankees Fan. Jaguars Fan. Mark Sanchez Wannabe. |
Crash
hasn't been relevant in nearly 10 years now. Also, I don't trust
platformer characters to have any strength on this site aside from those
that came from a Nintendo franchise. --- Luster Soldier - Popular at school. ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ |
From: KamikazePotato | #236 Pac-Man/Crash is probably 55/45 in favor of Pac-Man. But I said from the beginning that if this was Pac-Man/Ghosts, Pac-Man would crush this match. But just one ghost? Eh, I dunno. Neo Cortex doesn't really add anything to Crash either though, so this will basically come down to Pac-Man vs. Crash + whoever thinks voting for Blinky is funny. --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |
From: -LusterSoldier- | #240 When was the last time Pac-Man was relevant again? --- http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab48/Leonhart4/Squall.jpg |
I
think that very, very few people care about Crash nowadays. Even fewer
care about his villain or rivalry. The (perceived) novelty of being the
"first" gaming rivalry should be enough for Pac-Man. I predict an easy
win there. --- Yoblazer: http://8board.webs.com/ariel.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
Well,
Pac-Man was more of a character that got his strength mostly from one
game, although there have been other Pac-Man games and remakes as well. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
Yeah
the difference is that Crash is kind of lost & forgotten.
Meanwhile, Pac-Man doesn't have much relevance, but it's still
recognized by everyone and Pac-man isn't forgettable at least. --- Keeping this until Casey Mears wins his 2nd Nascar Cup race. 7/7/07 Yankees Fan. Jaguars Fan. Mark Sanchez Wannabe. |
Pac-Man
doesn't need extra ghosts for people to get that it's Pac-Man vs.
Pac-Man Ghosts, unless Bacon accepts a match pic that makes Lettuce
Kefka look godly. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/FII1z.gif |

Chell
really is bleeding % like nobody's business. Happy with my oracle and
happy I picked the winner of this match to lose next round as well. --- "With Harry, it's cool. We don't speak a lot and he doesn't care if I smile or if I know who the next team we play is." - Benoit Assou-Ekotto |
Whoa, Chell's momentum is really starting to slow down. Ness probably won't win or anything, but might do alright here. --- http://img806.imageshack.us/img806/7351/xiiirocks.jpg |
Very small gains here, not out of the question a cut might happen soon. --- :> |
