tgs2 posted... I think it has just been the FF side characters so far that has been sucking it up. Yeah they get antivoted, but Sephiroth still looked really strong while another strong character, Vincent, looked like ****. Aeris performed okay when you compare her bad performance with Sheppard's equally bad performance. Rydia is a side character and looked excellent. The FF7 bubble has definitely burst, Old square is looking great and its up for debate how the rest of new square will be affected. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |
F***ing
ugh at this match. There goes my first Round 3 person. God damn you
Kefka. I'd be more okay with this if it wasn't f***ing trolled by Kefka
again. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
Kefka going for that 400 votes barrier. --- @w@ Gamertag: SliceSabre |

raginbull911 posted... To the whole Chief vs Yuna debate, doesn't Chief historically perform better in multi-way contests? Claire's not a threat to win, but she's not Chester/Yuri either. I remember Chief crushing Yuna when they met in a multi-way before, but I could be wrong. You are right that Chief crushed Yuna when they met in a multi-way before, three times even, but that was around the time of Halo 3's release. An alternate take on it is that Chief could potentially benefit from the mascot factor in similar fashion to Jak/Spyro/Crash/Ratchet/Lara, although to be fair he's not nearly as washed up as those guys and still a good deal more mainstream. On the other hand, I feel as if Halo has never been particularly big since Halo 3 (or at least ODST), thanks to a certain other franchise becoming the big thing in that genre. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |

ChenKenichiFan posted... Oh f***, I have Zack winning two rounds as well. LMFAO Me too, though that raises an interesting question: Altair looked like his old self while FFVII characters have consistently disappointed, so do you think Altair would be able to reverse his 2008 loss to Zack? Because that loss was pretty much the only reason I picked Zack over Altair. The even more stupid thing is that I picked Kefka to win initially because I predicted that FFVII characters would suck it up and Ryu Hayabusa would follow suit, but oh well. I think I then had either Kefka or Lara in R2, not sure who. What's even more stupid is that I initially had Draven beating Jak, though to be fair that wouldn't have happened without the single biggest rally ever seen in contests. Also at least the board helped me get Crash right. I also picked Vincent over Sonic out of fanboyism for the former. I would have done the same with Aeris over Shepard, but that just didn't sound right. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
My
best guess is that Ryu's presence is affecting things and more Zack
votes than Kefka votes are going to him. I mean, things can change since
2010 of course, but Zack lost to Mega Man with pretty much the same
amount Kefka lost to Bowser, so this definitely comes out of left field. --- ... as if rights are like muscles - the more you use it, the better it gets. Indeed he may be exercising his first amendment-- but he's an IDIOT! - A. Scalia |

Also both Vincent and Ryu Hayabusa took huge seeding drops and both massively disappointed in their matches. So...hey Altair, how are YOU safe? --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
I think I must have started smoking something because later in the bracket I have Big Boss defeating Link. THEN BIG BOSS AND SOLID SNAKE LOSING TO MARIO UGHHH WHAT HAVE I BEEN SMOKING BOARD 8!? --- @w@ Gamertag: SliceSabre |

LinkMarioSamus posted...On the other hand, I feel as if Halo has never been particularly big since Halo 3 (or at least ODST), thanks to a certain other franchise becoming the big thing in that genre. And hey, what series do the two highest-seeded characters from the 2010 bracket who failed to make this contest hail from? That was meant to be an argument for why Master Chief could benefit in similar fashion to Crash and Spyro, by the way. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |

Oh my God. *throws bracket out the window* Well, I'm still having fun with this result. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |

I seriously laughed at ExTha's post before going "...wait a minute." I checked my bracket, saw Zack in Round 3, paused, and laughed even harder. Only Kefka. Only. God damn. Kefka. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |
Zack could still end up winning the match if Kefka's bad day vote starts showing, so he's still got a chance. --- The Gamer In Me "Ike and Ash & Co. saw a Yoshi and didn't catch it." - Mer telling us his dream. |
TheOneAboveAll posted... turbopuns posted...Karma Hunter, I understand that analyzing matches and watching trends from year to year helps people make informed decisions. But look at it from a casual's perspective. Common sense made me one of those 3.17% that picked Charizard over Bowser Common sense sometimes pays off |
paulg235 posted... Zack could still end up winning the match if Kefka's bad day vote starts showing, so he's still got a chance. dropping a 600+ vote lead? --- @w@ Gamertag: SliceSabre |
Think this match can help us know if Dante is going to be weaker now after DMC? It wasn't a bad game review-wise,but people still hate the new Dante If he gets a old Dante picture,do you think he is going to be weaker thanks to that game or stronger? (or same,whatever) |
I have a hard time seeing the "common sense" in Charizard > Bowser. Common sense goes like this: "Charizard is an awesome Pokemon, but Bowser is the most iconic video game villain ever, and Mario is more popular than Pokemon anyway. Guess I'll pick Bowza!" --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |
Currently a little under 400 votes, but it's still under the realm of possibility. --- The Gamer In Me "Ike and Ash & Co. saw a Yoshi and didn't catch it." - Mer telling us his dream. |
Does anyone have the Contest Bingo thing? Wasn't there something about Kefka in there? If not, there should be. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
SliceSabre posted... paulg235 posted...Zack could still end up winning the match if Kefka's bad day vote starts showing, so he's still got a chance. He has 370 on Zack and 700 on Ryu.. not sure where you're getting the 600+ from. Kefka's been stalled between 350-380 for a few splits now. --- I pwn you all! |
paulg235 posted... Zack could still end up winning the match if Kefka's bad day vote starts showing, so he's still got a chance. Terra was surprisingly stable in her match with other Nintendo characters (possibly due to Dissidia?) so I'm going to assume Kefka SHOULD be pretty stable as well --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me.

Nanis23 posted... Think this match can help us know if Dante is going to be weaker now after DMC? I don't think this is games here. Ryu Hayabusa is sharing more with Zack than Kefka and it's hurting both of them. Ryu H is getting slowly LPF'd but he hasn't folded as hard as Zack needs to really start cleaning house. |
BK_Sheikah00 posted... Does anyone have the Contest Bingo thing? Wasn't there something about Kefka in there? If not, there should be. something about how his matches MAKE NO GODDAMN SENSE which admittedly is a part of the reason why I took him --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me.

Oh man I'm looking at it cross-eyed, nevermind. But Zack still isn't winning. Kefka will not dropp this lead like Ike almost did with his --- @w@ Gamertag: SliceSabre |
Wow,
this board has me convinced that Kefka would be getting last place. I'm
hoping that most people made the same mistake so everyone will lose
points here. --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords. With what? ROT-13? -CJayC |

Ryu
H should have the best day vote of the three, Kefka should have the
worst by far. I think any permutation of placement is still on the
table here, but with lower vote totals it's hard not to side with Kefka. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Alright I'm off to bed. When I wake up early morning I'm fully expecting for a ZACK comeback. Don't disappoint me GameFAQs. --- Pokemon Showdown Peak Ranking OU: 2004 And then lost 7 matches in a row >_> |
I
really want Kefka to win, both for my bracket and because Kefka is one
of the best characters in gaming, contest history be damned. What's
really scary though is the regional results for the Far East which will
likely affect the last few hours of voting. Russia: Kefka: 22.58% Zack: 51.61% Ryu: 25.81% Indonesia: Kefka: 12.5% Zack: 71.88% Ryu: 15.63% Philippines: Kefka: 28.85% Zack: 59.62% Ryu: 11.54% Malaysia: Kefka: 23.08% Zack: 46.15% Ryu: 30.77% Australia: Kefka: 37.5% Zack: 35.94% Ryu: 26.56% --- I pwn you all! |

For the record my money's on Kefka > Ryu H > Zack here. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

More like The most popular Pokemon people has nostalgia for,a fresh face in those contests and who the hell doesn't like Charizard But it's freakin Bowser, Mario > Pokemon etc., there is no reason other than I like Charizard more so I'm going with him which is not common sense. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 29/34 Today's Picks: Lara Croft and Ryu H. |
