Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1040 [Ganondorf victory edition]
Wow. Well, if yesterday wasn't enough, this match cements the fact that the site has abandoned FFVII in droves. --- 2002 Link, 2003 Cloud, 2004 Link, 2005 Link, 2006 Link, 2008 Link, 2010 Link, 2011 Cloud. Link 6, Cloud 2 |
Albion
likes to pretend he hates JRPGs when they pull off cool upsets because
his trolling is transparent nonsense, don't mind him. --- "The metal board doesn't hate music that isn't metal. They hate music that's bad." -Lucid Faia |
Wii_TuRtLe posted... Not sure what's up with the doom and gloom. I still think Cloud comes back with the SNV. The ASV hasn't done much so far. Trainers have gained 150 votes in a half an hour and likely won't slow down anytime soon. Cloud should win SNV but at this pace he might be dealing with a 800-1000 vote deficit. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
I still think GSC could have beaten FFX. That was not a bad upset pick at all. --- ·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.· http://i42.tinypic.com/dz9krs.png |
Hey, I'll be happy to continue to underestimate Pokemon if it means more delightful performances like this. Though this time I actually predicted the trainers to win, so go me. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy IV (FF2US) http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3445328 |

Both of these games are JRPGS. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
Link is impossible for anyone, let alone in SFF, to beat. sounds like someone is doubting mario. --- "When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it." |
why do people still think the SNV is a thing --- FF fans don't hang around the internet on a monday morning they are out doing shopping or asleep hungover from parties. They got lives. -The_Djoker |
From: FateStayAlbion | #106 You're totally letting your jRPG bias or anti-bias or whatever cloud your judgment against whichever one you're rooting for or against or whatever. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy IV (FF2US) http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3445328 |
From: ZFS | #107 Well, as you rightfully should. This performance from Pokemon, impressive as it is, spells doomsday for Mariowser. --- Will not remove this line of my signature until the Seahawks, Jazz or Rockies win a title (Started 5-16-09) This line reserved for the Guru winner (TBD) |
doubter number two let's keep this list growing --- "When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it." |
After this, I don't know if I'll be able to trust FFVII in a real debated match anymore. If only Mega Man had been in Brawl, I could take Cloud to be out of the Top 5! --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/597oi.png |
From: ZFS | #111 Doubter is such a strong word. "Realist" is much more fitting. Don't get me wrong; I'd love a Mario win. But come on, now. --- Will not remove this line of my signature until the Seahawks, Jazz or Rockies win a title (Started 5-16-09) This line reserved for the Guru winner (TBD) |
Instead
of vague wondering about how GSC might've done against FFX, let's have
another games contest and see! And keep FFVII in, since no one actually
believes it's way ahead of the pack after this. --- Praise the Black Turtle, Game of the Decade Guru Champ. (Well, I never promised creativity, did I?!) |

I doubt anything from GOTD could beat FFX 1v1 legit without rallies. --- Black: 3310-7431-2094 |

UltimaterializerX posted... Talking about that dumb topic you made when Golden Sun beat San Andreas. The fact you remember random topics I made a year ago that I don't even remember is kinda creepy. Plus, I hate Golden Sun because when Nintendo bought Camelot from Sega, it effectively killed the Shining Force series as I knew it. I've always had a bias against the Golden Sun series since. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
To think that Samus/Ridley could have actually been a top five team. --- Yoblazer: http://8board.webs.com/ariel.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
Might as well! Nothing about the contest actually makes sense, so it might as well end not making sense! --- "When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it." |

Yeah
it is as I said.People that were coming to this site liked FF VII.Since
they left that is why it does so bad.Well anyway what can I
say?Congrats to Pokeymanz. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE! --- "Ulti with the slam dunk. You guys should listen to him more often." -Biolizard28 |
Man
so that means that the few people that come here care more than
Nintendo?I can't believe that.I mean you go to an old school site
because obviously it supports old-school games.And you leave?The
Hell?Also the 3rd place match is the best of the contest?And it doesn't
affect anything?Awesome. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
tbqh as a FFVII fan I feel kinda betrayed FFVII fans want a remake for years,they even made a tech demo to "tease" FFVII fans to make it even more annoying There is just no reason whatsoever to not remake FFVII All the previous FF games were remaked (or at least ported with improvments) and yet they don't want to do the same with FFVII It's been 5 years with no remakes (Final Fantasy Advance VI) with the exception of FFIV that was remaked twice recently I don't feel betrayed by Pokemon as the series continue to be good and they keep releasing new games that are usually good The only times I feel "betrayed" is when they announce a new game and then it's something stupid like PokePark 2 or that recently announced crossover game |
The Mana Sword | Posted 12/19/2011 3:23:48 PM | message detail | quote why do people still think the SNV is a thing The SNV barely even plays a role in any match because whoever wins the ASV will almost always win the SNV. The strength of the SNV has been greatly reduced after we switched over to a 12:00 AM start time. We'd still have a real SNV if the polls ended at 3:00 AM, since it would be in the middle of Europe starting to wake up again. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
3 AM start times were much better imo. Way more interesting matches! Though it was ridiculous for me on the east coast trying to stay up to see if Starcraft would come back. --- http://img.imgcake.com/alecoweenpngam.png http://img.imgcake.com/alecpngym.png |
I miss "3AM" start times too. 8am in real time is more reasonable >_> --- "To be fair to Herman Cain, we can't all be as wise as Slowking when he's wearing the Shellder of knowledge. Look it up, b****es." - Jon Stewart |

Seems
like the Trainers have slowed down a lot after that initial ASV surge
earlier. If they are struggling to increase their lead right now, Cloud
might make another comeback attempt in this match. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
Yeah pretty bad signs from trainers here. --- Smurf The cream of Sonic Fanboyism. I liked smurf until he declared me worst user on board 8 - the jp |
http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=4573®ion=ASI Just wait until the Asians wake up in a few hours. Its middle of the night in most of Asia atm. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
Europe
will be going to bed soon and I don't think Asia will pick up the
slack, they're going to need some help from North America by at least
slowing down. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 117/160 Today: Cloud/Sephiroth |
Cloud overcame what? around 980 votes...that was a ridiculous comeback considering... a) the Votals are crap b) little to no evidence of rallying(for Clouderoth) c) US still favouring Pokemon. Yes it was during the night but even still..the early hours killed them and he stepped up to the mark even with ridiculous amount of Antivotes. Hopefully They come back and win this. --- http://gifsoup.com/view2/3219901/nakedlightning-o.gif |
Asians have probably voted already for the most part. The polls start in late morning/early afternoon in Asia. |
https://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=0AgBWiYjlMLwYdHpEYmJDdktneHBQQXNoVXdLcUY3cEE&gid=2 Weekend poll, but the end of the poll should have similar trends regardless of it's on a weekday or weekend. Asia does well in the SNV, but not as good compared to the FNV. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
Yeah he came back from 989 votes and had a lead of about 100 I believe?Still impressive.North America really hates FF VII. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
So Pokemon and FF7 are pretty much even. Zelda got 58% and FF7 and Mario got 55% on Pokemon. Zelda > Mario with around 53%? --- http://img.imgcake.com/nio/2bigwigpngut.png |
From: Safer Sephiroth 777 | #141 I'm not going to include Canada in this because Canada has the largest Chrono Trigger fanbase. But the US seriously needs to disappear only then can we have great contests. --- http://gifsoup.com/view2/3219901/nakedlightning-o.gif |
Back under 200 again. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
XD This is literally the only web site in the world where calling a pedophile a pedophile is deemed offensive. You might as well start banning people who call flamingos pink. The absolute best was people getting modded for saying Sandusky deserved jail time, even though a conservative estimate puts him as having raped 40 kids. Forget Link winning every contest, that is why GameFAQs is a joke beyond all repair. --- No one would want to be friends with an unmoving, unspeaking telephone pole. However, unmoving and unspeaking is exactly what you'd want from a telephone pole. |
Having a hard time seeing trainers hold out, looking increasingly like a spent force in this match. --- Smurf The cream of Sonic Fanboyism. I liked smurf until he declared me worst user on board 8 - the jp |
Yeah they didn't go up enough with the ASV. Still a really good match though. --- I cowered like a pansy-ass spammer shoto in the face of BlAcK TuRtLe's superior guru bracket. Congratulations! |
That
hour the trainers dominated was probably the Cali ASV happening really
early due to schools having minimum days for the last week of the
semester --- Starcraft is my life, so without it I wouldn't exist. - Artosis |
huh, two 57%+ updates in a row for Cloud --- http://i42.tinypic.com/11jol1t.gif Oracle Challenge ~ Rank: 8th ~Today's prediction: Cloud / Seph - 51.18% |
