KanzarisKelshen posted... raginbull911 posted...People actually thought Mordin could win? This ruins your perfect score :( --- I pwn you all! |
Link/Mario
LFF should be quite a bit worse than Ike/Epona LFF. You're talking
about two gaming icons from the same company vs. two characters that
happen to share the same company, with basically no other similarities
between them. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
You'd
have a stronger point there if Seph hadn't SFFed Vincent to literally
10%. Seph + Vincent only got 53.2% on Link there. Link's only
x-statted to get like 56-57% on Seph alone so yeah that really isn't all
that devastating. It's enough to change results that are already close
but replace Vincent with say Altair and I'm not convinced Link loses. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Niko
is almost assuredly going to be much weaker this contest, not a stellar
performance by Epona, GlaDOS looking good to win the next round. --- Zinsanity of the Helix Board |
I
don't expect Ike/Epona LFF to be quite as severe, and I didn't really
think GlaDOS was going to be THAT close to Ike to start with. I'm probably wrong about one or both of those assumptions, but that's why I took Ike to round 3. --- http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmb8ky9zpsk1qd3518o8250gifyd.gif http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmb8ky9zpsk1qd3518o6250gifuv.gif |

I
think GlaDOS wins relatively easily, but even if she doesn't, Epona is
going up against Snake so I'm not sure what the point of voting for
Epona is unless you actually prefer her to Mordin. --- Still smilin' :> |
I remember hearing about some guy who tried to make the dialogue in Ocarina of Time more entertaining.by naming himself "I say". |
Hell replace Vincent with Samus and I'm not entirely sure Link loses. I don't think Vincent is hurting Seph as much as you think there. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

It's enough to change results that are already close but replace Vincent with say Altair and I'm not convinced Link loses. Well, no, he won't (and this is why I didn't take Snake), because he'll take it out of Mario's hide as voters who prefer Mario desperately try to save Link and "rallies" and such. But in a theoretical 'blind' match, Seph probably wins that match outright if you remove Vincent. The point is that it matters. There's never been an instance where it didn't matter. Why should I believe Ike/Epona is the match to break the rule? --- sig |
Oh, I forgot to post the chart from the night match: Time | GlaDOS | Cole | Ragna | Votes 0:05 | 60.22% | 21.33% | 18.46% | 558 1:00 | 59.17% | 23.13% | 17.70% | 4847 2:00 | 57.36% | 24.15% | 18.48% | 2770 3:00 | 58.50% | 22.78% | 18.72% | 2147 4:00 | 59.85% | 21.66% | 18.49% | 1579 5:00 | 58.00% | 23.29% | 18.72% | 1357 6:00 | 58.12% | 24.24% | 17.65% | 1275 7:00 | 57.43% | 25.04% | 17.53% | 1386 8:00 | 58.98% | 24.06% | 16.96% | 1604 9:00 | 59.19% | 23.89% | 16.93% | 1796 10:00 | 59.02% | 25.72% | 15.26% | 1874 11:00 | 59.20% | 24.82% | 15.98% | 1821 12:00 | 59.36% | 24.15% | 16.48% | 1826 GlaDOS is actually pretty consistent here. Cole does better during the day, while Ragna does better at night and gets to be the first character this contest to have two best hours! X-Stats: GlaDOS – 50.00% Cole MacGrath – 28.85% Ragna the Bloodedge – 22.92% GlaDOS's prediction percentage was 83.36% --- http://i.imgur.com/fe05x.png http://i.imgur.com/stNJf.png |
It's
debatable if it mattered there to any notable extent, though. Replace
Mario with Solid Snake and I don't think Link suddenly explodes to 45% I
don't think he even gets to 40%. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Karma Hunter posted... Why should I believe Ike/Epona is the match to break the rule? Shaped like a horse to break the rule --- http://www.gifsoup.com/view/593815/frasier-and-niles-dance-o.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... ChenKenichiFan posted...Hrm? I'm saying that Ike's place on the Nintendo hierarchy is guaranteed to be lower than Epona's. He has Smash. She has Ocarina of Time. There's really no contest. ooo I want to play Zelda Ganondorf Epona Happy Mask Salesman Saria Darunia Ruto King Zora The Deku Tree Mido The Kokiri sitting on the shop awning The Kokiri shopkeeper "Please with C" guy Bombchu bowling girl Impa Nabooru Koume Kotake Running Man The Carpenters Malon Talon Inigo The lady who lost her dog The dog she lost Those weird guys who always hang out together An empty bottle Gohma Morphs Bongo Bongo The guy in the bridge house with all the pots The Carpenter's creepy son Dampe Graveyard kid A Redead The horse Impa and Zelda escape on Ike The picture of Yoshi you can see through a window Skull Kid The Great Fairy Biggoron The Goron named Link A Bombchu --- For your SuperNiceDog. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
Mordin over 30% now That's something, I guess. --- http://images.cheezburger.com/completestore/2011/8/22/2094c2de-bae8-4f5b-9f27-67eaff0aaeaf.jpg |
I
think Ike would have an easier time of the match if GlaDOS was a more
instantly recognizable and well-known character. Epona probably crumbles
the more characters in the poll that a voter can actually recognize,
because I can't see Link's Horse putting up a lot of % against
characters who aren't losers like Mordin and Niko. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Thar we go, Epona --- The official rad dude of the Pokemon X board. |
If we get "please with C" guy in the contest, all f***ing bets are off. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/gdl8lcn.jpg |
Not sure why some people here are so confident in GlaDOS. Sure, she's the favorite, but by not that much. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5173 She literally couldn't break 60% on all-American generic action figure and what's-his-name from that cult JRPG. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/3800 She was stomped by Kirby. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/4553 GlaDOS (along with Chell) couldn't beat an aging set of characters, despite Portal 2 having been released earlier in the year along with Steam giving away the first Portal for free for a while before that. Yeah, she's the favorite for sure now. But I wouldn't be very confident in her. Truth is, I'm not very confident in either GlaDOS, Ike, or Epona. It'll be a good match. --- Drop it to the floor... |

Epona probably crumbles the more characters in the poll that a voter can actually recognize, because I can't see Link's Horse putting up a lot of % against characters who aren't losers like Mordin and Niko. This. Peach syndrome just seems logical for her. How many Zelda fans have not played Brawl or Portal? Can't be all that many. |
GlaDOS went from 67% on Fawful to 71% on Cole, so she's looking stronger this year at least. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KamikazePotato posted... GlaDOS went from 67% on Fawful to 71% on Cole, so she's looking stronger this year at least. You think? Because Fawful is at least instantly recognizable. Cole is...yeah. |
MoogleKupo141 posted... The Goron named Link Imagine if we got THIS guy into the contest instead of Link. --- "A game with amazing story and mediocre gameplay usually beats a game with amazing gameplay and mediocre story." - Vlado, Gaming Expert |
Wheatley is place at around a low midcarder and considering GlaDOS is stronger she is in good position. Only issue is if you believe Niko has the same strength then by the end of this Epona will be about as strong as Jill. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 27/32 Today's Picks: Epona and Altair |
KanzarisKelshen posted... Because Fawful is at least instantly recognizable. No, he's not. --- http://i.imgur.com/M7vKB.gif |
Loved the list, Moogle. You made me lol heartily. ChenKenichiFan posted... If we get "please with C" guy in the contest, all f***ing bets are off. This, first of all. Also, the Goron named Link could be another good one. Also, if you want the picture of Yoshi, why not throw in Talon's Bowser pendant? The sky's the limit here! |
Cole probably beats Fawful. Not by much, but the GBA Mario RPGs are kinda niche and Fawful is a kinda minor character all things considered. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
You think? Because Fawful is at least instantly recognizable. Cole is...yeah. Only if you don't own a PS3 and even then Fawful is not recognizable unless you play the Mario & Luigi games. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 27/32 Today's Picks: Epona and Altair |
I
think the important thing to consider on the Ike/Epona/GlaDOS showdown
will be whether Ike and Epona SFF each other enough to allow GlaDOS to
sneak by. As long as GlaDOS isn't too far in strength from the two (and
we know she's not), she should be fine. --- Surskit Hi! I like shorts! They're comfy and easy to wear! |
Wheatley is not a low midcarder unless you're ready to call Crash one, and I'm not. And I picked the guy to win. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
WellThoughtName posted... MoogleKupo141 posted...The Goron named Link not Link takes out Crono round 1 just watch it happen |
Wheatley is not a low midcarder unless you're ready to call Crash one, and I'm not. And I picked the guy to win. You must have high standards, borderline fodder then. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 27/32 Today's Picks: Epona and Altair |
Link the Goron. My god. --- Haman Korn! You're the source of all kernels in this world! Your time has come! -Cornille You've made a poor choice for your final popping place! -Haman Korn |
You really are a genius, Moogle. Never would have thought of that. |
Using the patented The Boss Low Midcarder Line...The Boss would beat the crap out of Wheatley and Crash, I think. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KamikazePotato posted... GlaDOS went from 67% on Fawful to 71% on Cole, so she's looking stronger this year at least. Westernized action characters haven't been doing too well in this contest. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5162 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5159 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5144 --- Drop it to the floor... |
Why exactly do you think not calling Crash a low midcarder is a "high standard" Is it because he doubled Vercetti? I'm not sure that's entirely relevant anymore. Fully expect Crash to finish around 17% on the x-stats which is fodder. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
hylianknight3 posted... You really are a genius, Moogle. Never would have thought of that. aww thanks --- For your SuperNiceDog. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
I
don't think we should look at Tommy's drop off and use it to to
extrapolate for Niko. Niko's debut happened after GTA had already
dropped off in popularity on GameFAQS, so he should have less far to
fall. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
Crash is borderline low midcard on his best day. --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |
Why exactly do you think not calling Crash a low midcarder is a "high standard" Is it because he doubled Vercetti? I'm not sure that's entirely relevant anymore. His performance against Hayabusa --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 27/32 Today's Picks: Epona and Altair |
Holy crap, "please with C" guy pays 300 Rupees for Lon Lon Milk? I had no idea! GET HIM IN THE CONTEST. EVERYONE MUST KNOW. --- http://i.imgur.com/a4GuDV3.gif |
oh my god whoever wins the guru better nominate Link the goron --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
charmander6000 posted... Why exactly do you think not calling Crash a low midcarder is a "high standard" 38% on Hayabusa isn't THAT stellar of a performance, honestly. He's basically equal with Spy. --- http://img.imgcake.com/nio/26leonpngat.png http://img.imgcake.com/nio/daigohadoupnguj.png |
Honestly,
the thing most worrying me about Ike next round is that RIDICULOUS
board vote Epona had. If that sticks around, I'm not sure Ike has the
trends to recover, intrinsic strength be damned. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I'd love to see how well Link the Goron does. Unfortunately, I suspect he'll be banned under the Dark Link rule. --- Pokemon VGC2013 BC Regional - 16th place Pokemon VGC2013 US National - 39th place |
38% on Hayabusa isn't THAT stellar of a performance, honestly. He's basically equal with Spy. Sure it is, Hayabusa has shown to have strength, he went even with Zero and for what it's worth won over Master Chief. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 27/32 Today's Picks: Epona and Altair |
Yeah, I second all of the Link the Goron love. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
ExThaNemesis posted... oh my god whoever wins the guru better nominate Link the goron We should've thought of this sooner. He could've gotten into this contest easily. We had an opportunity and we missed it. --- "A game with amazing story and mediocre gameplay usually beats a game with amazing gameplay and mediocre story." - Vlado, Gaming Expert |
I'm pretty sure Hayabusa would ~60-40 a lot of high fodder I mean Crash has definitely improved from 2004 and all but Ryu Hayabusa isn't exactly an elite guy. Also being primarily X-Box means he's more prone to having guys overachieve against him. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
