He'll still be far south of the oracle average. But he is flying now. Would've looked way better with a day match. --- NGirl@work or on phone. |
Match II: (6) Raiden vs. (13) Waluigi vs. (22) Alan Wake Previous Contest Raiden – 2008 28.35% against Master Chief, Kain Highwind and Professor Layton 12.04% against Kirby, Master Chief and Big Boss Waluigi – N/A N/A Alan Wake – N/A N/A Analysis While it is impossible to give everyone an interesting match I feel Raiden is a bit wasted. With the release of Metal Gear Rising he had an opportunity to be placed in various questionable matches. Even without Rising Raiden should have no problem winning this match easily and given that these two opponents are new we will not have any idea on how much he has boosted. Alan Wake is the first in a long list of characters who wished there was a character battle in 2011 or 2012. The game Alan Wake had decent reception when it was released and while he would not have likely been any more than fodder back then his sequel has essentially been put on pause and with each passing year more people are likely to forget about him. I have had difficulty trying to place Waluigi’s strength. While I am confident that he will be the weakest Mario character to have appeared in a contest, with the exception of Toad whose only match had Bowser in the same poll that still gives him a large range as both Peach and Wario have shown to be above the fodder line. Trying to use the Rivalry Rumble is not the best idea either as Luigi and Waluigi is a terrible rivalry and that contest showed that characters did not follow their usual strength. I would imagine Waluigi would suffer from anti-votes, but he does have his fans and I feel Mario fans are numerous enough to give him second place. Raiden should be able to break 50% over the two fodder characters, but with the re-emergence of anti-blowoutFAQs he could struggle to reach that mark. charmander6000’s Bracket: Raiden > Waluigi and Alan Wake charmander6000’s Prediction: Raiden – 51.74%, Waluigi – 26.34%, Alan Wake – 21.92% --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 0/0 Today's Picks: Link and Raiden |
Gonna call it now: Waluigi gives Raiden a good scare. These second matches are always a bit weird. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |

While I am confident that he will be the weakest Mario character to have appeared in a contest, with the exception of Toad whose only match had Bowser in the same poll that still gives him a large range as both Peach and Wario have shown to be above the fodder line. I think he's likely to be around Daisy strength if not a little stronger thanks to his recent cult following. --- Surskit Don't keep the lion in a coma. |
You know what bothers me most about this match? Tingle is doing significantly better on Link than GDorf did. --- NGirl@work or on phone. |
Okay I just noticed.In the match pic Isaac is smiling.But in the results pic he is crying?What is going on? --- 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~ |

72% get! 1v1: Link beats Isaac 82,19% Link beats Tingle 85,3% --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
XIII_socks posted... Concerned with anyone who would say "don't worry, Link will win". Are people actively rooting for him? Still? I voted for Tingle as a joke. I'm not in the least bit phased by Link's performance in this match. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
From: nintendogirl2 | #305 You know what bothers me most about this match? Tingle is doing significantly better on Link than GDorf did. Let's all get on the Tingle > Ganondorf boat! --- Another contest?

I highly doubt Ganon would get his doors blown off quite as badly these days. 90% sounds too ridiculous --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
TheOneAboveAll posted... Luster, unless I'm mistaken your updater stopped working at 7:31 am. I don't know why. Keep in mind that these have to be updated manually.

Wish I hadn't taken Epona so far now. --- Can anyone provide me with a decent challenge!? |

Vote
totals have slowed down significantly after the first hour. Based on
the first hour alone, this poll was on track to break 31000 votes, but
now we won't even reach 29000 votes. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
29k still seems like a possibility. --- Currently obsessed with - Yearnings of Wind. |
Well, 72.5% is the bar to beat in three ways now. --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. |
junk_funk posted... Wish I hadn't taken Epona so far now. We'll be able to see tomorrow just how much of a chance Epona has. I think Mordin will beat her but I'm not totally confident, but a smackdown by Shepard will give me the boost of confidence I need. |
Achromatic posted... Well, 72.5% is the bar to beat in three ways now. Look at all this DAMAGE CONTROL --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Failing to SFF Tingle isn't a sign of weakness and I guess Isaac is just stronger than we thought. /Damage_Control --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 0/0 Today's Picks: Link and Raiden |

I have a new respect for Isaac now that we see what true fodder is like |
lol He was 0 when I voted for Raiden lol --- Currently obsessed with - Yearnings of Wind. |
Oh, appears I overestimated Mr. Wake. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
4th vote. Though I wonder if numbers off, because as I showed in the screenshot, it said I was the third vote last night but it showed all three votes for Link. --- "Taken 2 would probably be good because it's Taken 2 and Liam Neeson doesn't know who you are but he will find you and get you laid." -Silvercross |

I figured Wake would be awful, really thought about taking him under 18%, but I think he'll rebound a nice bit from this floor. --- http://i.imgur.com/IjkDZMA.jpg |
Didn't expect Alan to do so bad --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |

Did the match just stop accepting votes? --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Alan Wake, time to wake up! |
Expecting Alan Wake to do reasonably well? TOO BAD --- And then the car wash cost five dollars. |
At freeze: Raiden's got 58.36% on Waluigi Raiden's got 81.02% on Alan Wake Waluigi's got 75.28% on Alan Wake --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
