If we're talking about fans being burned by Nintendo... *looks at the Wii U* --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Personally,
I'm tempted to side with Big Boss because Luigi probably won't be able
to SFF Ness to the point of being a non-factor (there's absolutely no
doubt the Earthbound faithful won't let him roll over and die). --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Not to play Devil's Advocate, but they certainly let Lucas roll over and die! "his game hasn't been released in America" I thought you Earthbound fans were supposed to be DEDICATED --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

Max
Payne is doing very well in New Zealand, India and Southeast Asia.
That's a good thing if he wants to pull a comeback, since he is barely
beating Guybrush in the US and losing to Guybrush in Canada. Though at
this point, a comeback is almost certainly out of reach unless Bacon
finds more stuffed votes for Guybrush. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
There will be no comeback. May Payne gets the stain of losing to Guybrush --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
superange128 posted... --Smurf-- posted...Reimu bled 7% from the 2nd hour to the last which was a greater shift than either of the other two made in the other direction. It's just hard to believe they wouldn't stuff for the supposedly strongest of the trio but would for the others. Most of her votes are spread across Europe as per the other two and indeed as with Draven. Reimu and Marisa are both the main characters. I mean, I guess maybe it's a Mario/Luigi type of relationship since Reimu's been the main character for longer but they really should be about even. --Smurf-- posted...

Most of her votes are spread across Europe as per the other two and indeed as with Draven. Reimu's votes are all over the place. The only country that looks even remotely "odd" is Russia, where she won with 48%--still far from the types of gaudy numbers that China's had for these past couple of matches. That percentage bleed just implies that she had a strong pre-planned rally and that it petered out after it became obvious that it was still hopeless. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar.

Well I was joking about Luigi getting ten times Ness, but I'm hoping he can triple or quadruple him "for the cause." --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |

As expected, Guybrush is losing percentage since Europe is going to sleep. Guybrush has lost 0.17% in the last hour alone. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |

**checks poll very late** **rubs eyes** *checks poll again** **asks sister to confirm if I'm crazy or if Guybrush is actually beating Max Payne** HOLY FREAKING YES GO GUYBRUSH!!!!!!!!!! |
Okay,
I've held out long enough. Max Payne loses to Guybrush. Well at least
he made a name for himself, and if he'll likely never be back in a
future contest you can bet he's ensured Guybrush will be with us
forever. And insofar as becoming the second character in two matches to
have votes removed for stuffing accrues notoriety, I suppose Guybrush
makes a name for himself too. Ganondorf did a good job of stomping the
fodder, picking up after the stuffed votes were removed, much as Vivi
did. Pity he's wasted. Round 1, Match 67 (2) Squall Leonhart (17) Rayman (26) Commander Video Squall should win this with about as high a percentage as Ganondorf is now, unless Rayman has gone up a long way from when he got 13% on Solid Snake. He's likely a good deal stronger due to Origins and Legends hype, but there's only so far he could've gone. Video's likely to be very poor fodder, below the level of even Guybrush and Max Payne. Bracket: Squall Expert: Squall > Rayman > Video Oracle: Squall Leonhart - 66%; Rayman - 22%; Commander Video - 12% --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
Max's
only hope is that more votes are removed. Which is unlikely, I think.
Man, Max, how the f*** did you fail me so badly. I guess if it's any
consolation the majority of expert probably had Max second as well.
Especially if they were lurking B8 for advice. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
Wooh go guybrush. For once he doesn't fail me haha. |
From: Then00bAvenger | Posted: 8/10/2013 9:07:47 PM | #315 Are you male or female? the best --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
More stuffed votes removed? what is going on here. All these years and now back-to-back? --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
This
is one of the funniest results, even moreso because Guybrush got so
ultra-destroyed against the competition of DNF, GFNW, and SDAOAW (Some
Dude Announced on a Website)... and then Max Payne, who actually has a
couple of wins under his belt, loses to him. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
xp1337 posted... More stuffed votes removed? back-to-back-to-back but don't worry I'm sure it's just been these three times these last contests edit: wait we had a lull with Mario/Duke Nukem/Fawful... unless MARIO cheated AGAIN --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Karma Hunter posted... xp1337 posted...More stuffed votes removed? nah Fawful stuffers Mario actaully broke 70% :P |

I guess if it's any consolation the majority of expert probably had Max second as well. Especially if they were lurking B8 for advice. Yeah, changed with 5 minutes to go on expert advice. I really should just trust my own judgement on matches like this. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
no pick ftw i even had that on the next match, but i guess Rayman should be safe enough. --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
Let's go Rayman. Gotta believe. |
No sprite round eh? Snake breathes a sigh of relief. Just imagine how embarrassing it would have been when Laughing Kefka or Angel Kefka got close to 40% on him. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Holy crap. Guess I was wrong ALLEN --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
I would like Sub-Zero investigated for vote stuffing --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
Man Laughing Kefka can beat
Sprite Snake I don't know why everyone was so cavalier about that
match. Using Snake/Fox and the Fox/Lloyd v Pikachu/Lloyd comparisons it
looks like Sprite Snake cost him around 10 points against Pikachu. Then
if you use Kefka's proportion to a constant Zack and adjust him up a few
points for Laughing Kefka, he's ahead! --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

Karma Hunter posted... but don't worry I'm sure it's just been these three times these last contests of course Seriously though, I almost don't want an investigation into Reimu, etc. Because if turns out there was stuffing there (and elsewhere I guess) then it influenced my expert challenge and I'd much rather be wrong because I was... well wrong than because we were working with incorrect information. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?

Alright
so now I can just pretend that Garrus beat that worthless c***muscle,
and was only stopped from advancing by cheating. And all is right with
the world. Oh, and San Andreas' loss was the bitter anti-fanboys
stuffing for Golden Sun. Everything makes so much sense once you take into account Allen allowing stuffing all these years. --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |

Match LXVII: (2) Squall Leonhart vs. (17) Rayman vs. (26) Commander Video Previous Contest Squall Leonhart 2010 68.01% against Akuma 64.52% against Terra Branford 51.81% against Auron 40.83% against Solid Snake Rayman 2007 9.15% against Solid Snake, Nightmare and Vyse Commander Video N/A N/A Analysis Squall is one of the strongest non-noble nine characters and with two fodder characters he is going to rock this poll. While Seifer looked pretty bad in his match I feel that is more due to his weakness than Final Fantasy VIII dropping. Outside of Final Fantasy VII new Final Fantasy has been performing fine, but even if Squall is weaker he will still crush the poll. Back in 2007 I felt Rayman should have been stronger; while it is true platform characters outside of the main series do not perform well Rayman was not exactly a total unknown. I expect him to be a bit stronger for this contest given he has had a few releases since then, including Rayman Origins. Even with his low strength I still expect him to win over Commander Video. Commander Video caught me off-guard, he is one of the few characters in this bracket where I have not even heard of the game he is from. From what I gather Video has a bit of a cult following and he has made a couple of cameo appearances in games such as Super Meat Boy. I honestly do not see a reason why he would have any strength, even just enough to win over Rayman. Squall should be able to break 60% with ease unless Rayman really turns around from his 2007 performance. While I feel Rayman will be stronger than what we saw in 2007 I do not believe he will be much stronger. Commander Video I feel has a legit chance at being one of the weakest characters in the bracket. charmander6000s Bracket: Squall Leonhart > Rayman and Commander Video charmander6000s Prediction: Squall Leonhart 67.67%, Rayman 22.34%, Commander Video 9.99% --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 51/64 Today's Picks: Vivi and Ganondorf |
Also,
I still can't believe that someone who got dismantled by Ryo Hazuki,
got fried by Bowser, got smashed in a weak-ass fourpack, lost to Isaac
by over ten thousand votes, and finally got blown the hell out by
Vincent is actually NOT failing it up and getting last. --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Hah. Guybrush had votes removed? No chance in hell that Reimu didn't stuff like crazy, she dropped like a brick after the first couple hours. Very little chance that Draven didn't have at the least hundreds of stuffed votes. Pretty good chance of 1000+ fraud votes for him, if even a lousy Touhou character can manage 1500 (which it looks like Cirno did, even though only 1000 were removed - Tifa and Chun-Li's %ages tanked the last few hours even after the removal). -LusterSoldier- posted... As for why all of Guybrush's stuffed votes came during the first hour: Interesting theory. Did Marisa and Guybrush have the same poll option ID? --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
No, looks like Marisa would have been 3 and Guybrush is 2 --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
Wow, Max Payne is strikingly weak. Would anybody here take Dragonborn over him? --- http://i.imgur.com/GhorUQg.jpg ~Masa |
Also
god damnit I was hoping Draven would do something magical to break the
LAW, but if Draven's "magic" is just stuffing then I guess we're back
where we started: it's down to Solid Snake. Unless Draven stuffs again and Allen ignores it again. In which case eh that'd be kind of lame. I can get on board with a rally breaking the LAW but not stuffing. --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |

Masato_Tanaka posted... Wow, Max Payne is strikingly weak. Would anybody here take Dragonborn over him? I'd bite - Max Payne doesn't look like he can even beat Tom Nook anymore if he's losing to Guybrush... --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Draven
would need a miracle to beat Link. That loser couldn't even come close
to beating Jak and Chie without rallying, possible stuffing and/or
whatever else. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
More like would anyone take Max Payne over Dragonborn? --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

Also god damnit I was hoping Draven would do something magical to break the LAW, but if Draven's "magic" is just stuffing then I guess we're back where we started: it's down to Solid Snake. why would you even want Draven to be the one to do it Snake is such a better character than that scrub |
well yeah, thus why I said "magical" --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
I'd
take Pyramid Head over Max/Guybrush at this point. Unless Dragonborn is
completely, utterly worthless (could still happen!), it's a pretty dumb
question. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
