Just because Juliet didn't win doesn't mean the pic didn't help her out. She probably does worse without it.

I would literally take a week off of work and do gif pics for every round 3 match

non-joke gif pics

I don't know if anyone else here knows how to do them (I just taught myself a few months ago; all the ones leading up to the Crono/Mario pic were just me trying to figure out how to do the Crono/Mario pic)

If you take Wolf out of this poll this is really close but I think Blue might still win.

I actually voted Wolf and if you take him out I would've voted Blue so I mean those people do definitely exist but I do think they're an extreme minority.

I don't think Wolf>Blue>Fox is such a huge minority. If you vote for Wolf here it's because you like the Smug Douchebag character over bland ole' Fox, and Blue fits that bill too!

I see. I was thinking that Wolf being removed would have most of his percentage go to Fox, but...

Most of Wolf's percentage would go to Fox, but I think a good amount of it would go to Blue as well. Something like 65-35 or 60-40.

Wolf's percentage goes to Fox in a ridiculously overwhelming amount. Probably 'only' something like 70/30 but it could be well in excess of 80/20.

I don't really think Wolf and Blue are all that similar, personally. Pigma's the one that's like Gary Oak of that bunch.

I think Blue probably gets 10% of Wolf votes personally.

Assuming current percentages remain stagnant for the rest of the pool, Fox would need 84.7% of Wolf's votes to win.

70% of Wolf's percentage going to Fox still results in Blue winning 51/49 as it currently stands.

Eh, if Sephiroth can only give 70% of his votes to Cloud when there's a bunch of Nintendo characters in the poll, I doubt Wolf can do better than that. These guys are all still Nintendo characters, here, their fanbases are going to overlap.

One of them doesn't add up to 100%, right?

Rounding sometimes will cause the percentages not to add to 100% if the third decimal place is 5 in those cases.

Regardless of the split though I'd take Blue over Fox 1v1 just because "never bet against Pokemon in a close match" and even with 100% of Wolf going to Fox that's going to be close.

In other words, take Wolf out, and Fox likely still loses.

If Catherine wins she should have a picture with TJF in the next round and eating something or at least having her fingers in her mouth.That would be a perfect pic.

I've always felt that MMX, and Red by association, was underrated in 2010 adjusted stats. Mario, Sonic, Luigi all given big SFF boosts, but X was largely unchanged and I just don't agree that he was unaffected.

Any adjustment might make Ocelot seem a tad high, but Red also beats him pretty comfortably in a 24-hour match.

That's mostly what I based my Blue pick on, the idea that Red is stronger than stats say and Blue being pretty close to him in strength.

The one extra factor in this equation is while Gary's actual vote count lead keeps increasing, his percentage seems to be slowly, but steadily, decreasing. While this is NOT indicative of vote cuts, where this begins to matter is the lower Gary's total % of the vote is, the lower the % of Wolf's voter base is required to be given to Fox to defeat Gary 1v1.

The constant that needs to be figured out is what's the distribution of Wolf's voter base between Fox and Blue. This is all, of course, guesswork. However, the lower Gary's % is, the less of Wolf's votes Fox needs to take to, in theory, defeat Gary 1v1.


*EDIT - I said Gary instead of Blue.. lol

I've thought this before, but it makes guys like Ocelot and Captain John Price way too strong for my liking. That entire pack of characters is really weird.

Go one homepage. Right click on the current match pic, then "Open image in a new tab"

Now notice the url of the image. Change the numbers accordingly(common sense).

For example http://img.gamefaqs.net/images/cbnine/battle/5197.jpg

That's the image for the next match, now for the next match just change the URL to 5198.

So what's the consensus on Isaac Clarke/Sandbag? I know Sandbag beat Magus (lolmagus), but I'd have to think he doesn't stand up very well to Samus SFF.

The issue's not really Ocelot. The issue is that thinking MMX is on the same level as Mega Man means Captain John Price is on the same level as Cid Highwind.
