Of
course if one or more of those things doesn't hold true favorably it
falls apart in a hurry and you get Blue > Red pretty quickly. That's
why it's interesting. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
ExThaNemesis posted... FranzyvonKarma posted...Hey, nothing you can say. *goes off on rant about how that guy associated with the song only got in the door due to his lineage* OK, I'm done. --- The Artist Commonly Known as The Hardcore Kid |
I'd rather have 100 Randy Ortons at their worst than 1 Garret Bischoff. Aces and Division Eights --- ~War~ |
I've
skipped the last few topics, but I'd still like to throw in my two
cents despite the likelihood of all this stuff having already been
covered: I'm still of the opinion that roughly, Tidus = Yuna = Rikku. Rikku suddenly looks much better against ? Block, but I'd still give ol' Block the advantage because it's a new character and because Rikku has to deal with another female RPG character in a day match. And that's... about all I got. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/gdl8lcn.jpg |
I'm
pretty terrified that voters will treat ? Block will treat it as an
extension of L Block, in which case it's pretty well screwed if Rikku is
anywhere near where she's been in the past. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

? Block was always screwed, especially with that picture. No one wants to vote for a 3D ? Block! --- i'll do rydia -Dante |

I
was pretty sure ? Block was going to easily crush that match when I
first filled out my bracket, so I'm sure it could thwart those
expectations by losing horribly. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
who were the people nominating ? block. Did it get some sort of rally, is there any good reason why it exists in this contest. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic fanboyism |
It beat L-Block in the bonus poll after L-Block won the '07 contest, so it gets some noms every year. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |

I don't think I've ever been more convinced of something debatable than ? Block losing L-Block was the first, Missingno is nostalgic for everyone, WCC is cute ? Block is sort of nothing --- Fight like dragons, have no fear, swords are made of STEEEEEEEEL~ |
nintendogirl1 posted... __Smurf__ posted...who were the people nominating ? block. Did it get some sort of rally, is there any good reason why it exists in this contest. oh right I'd forgotten that poll. That's concerning. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic fanboyism |
I'm
pretty sure ? Block wouldn't have even beaten L Block straight up in a
one on one match if that was the 07 Bonus Poll. With a fanbase split
between nothing but joke options, ? Block coasted on its Nintendo
affiliation. Can't do that in a real poll. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
L-Block
still being strong doesn't come from being first. It comes from being a
proxy for Tetris the kind of way Link is a proxy for his games, and
maybe still a little bit from some people having a soft spot for it
after its '07 run. The biggest argument against ? Block should be that it won't have the same proxy-effect given that its series is not, in fact, about blocks, and its not a major focus of the games at all. --- Ace Detective for Hire |
Also, uh, L Block isn't strong anymore. Rikku may be able to handle L herself, let alone ?. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

Correct and correct. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
People are still
bored of the predictable. Why do you think Missingno just went 50/50
with someone he was supposed to blow out? It's not anything about having
a close match with everyone, it's that people find the joke stale now
and want something new. This is also why Link is suffering anti-votes so severely now. Above all, people are tired of his dominance. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Back then, people were willing to DO Something about it... >_> --- The Artist Commonly Known as The Hardcore Kid |
L-Block
was a fun little thing that everybody enjoyed long before it gained any
real strength. I mean, it completely killed Kirby during the board
vote, and that was well before it had any jokey appeal or even 'this
thing might have something resembling strength'. It was just 'oh man a
Tetris piece go go go'. Nothing else is going to have a huge surprise board vote like that again. Heck, even L's board vote has gotten kinda iffy nowadays. --- ~War~ |
*turns the computer on, goes to GameFAQs* Let's see last match's results. WHAAAA!!! --- SuperNiceDog wags his tail better than your regular, standard dog. -If someone scares the hell out of you, then are you protected by God? |

People
are still willing to do something. Bandwagons can form with a single
spark nowadays on this site. Charizard, who couldn't even double Duke
Nukem, put up a higher score on Mario than most Noble Niners would be
expected to get - and that was in a 1v1 format. If peak Link had been anything remotely vulnerable, we'd see him getting crushed by half the Noble Nine now. It's just that peak Link used to be so far beyond invincible that even now with a huge portion of the site reliably anti-voting him (ISAAC FROM BINDING AND SFFED TINGLE), he's still almost entirely unbeatable outside of very peculiar circumstances. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

I mean good lord Tingle did better on Link than Ganondorf how bad do your anti-votes have to be for this to be possible --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

KH we literally have THARJA in the second round. There are no standards anymore. --- ~War~ |
Janus5000 posted... Link/Tingle/Ganondorf next contest do it As long as the match comes with a skip button that let's us move on to the next match --- Drop it to the floor... |
THARJA has won more matches since 2006 than the lead of Final Fantasy 10. --- ~War~ |
Tharja has won more matches since 2006 than Tidus. --- Ace Detective for Hire http://i1189.photobucket.com/albums/z430/RadLink5/valdez.gif |
Tharja/Juliet/Tiny Tina at least had some up in the airness about it but really but then we got one-upped almost immediately by the glorious match that was MEWTWO/ZERO (999)/CHESTER --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
LeonhartFour posted... It's hard to get the exact numbers on Squall/Auron since the maps don't show percentages by continent anymore, but Squall had at least 54-55% in Europe. http://web.archive.org/web/20100317035949/http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3839®ion=EUR http://web.archive.org/web/20100316075529/http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3839®ion=US --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
kinsho3 posted... Janus5000 posted...Link/Tingle/Ganondorf next contest do it Given the nature of this site, Tingle will win for spite. --- The Artist Commonly Known as The Hardcore Kid |
Tingle
would win. Ganondorf and him get SFFed into the ground by Link and
whatever loyal holdouts Ganondorf has are overwhelmed by joke votes for
Tingle. Anti-votes have nowhere to go and probably split evenly among
the non-Link options, or go to Tingle for the lulz. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Yeah, that definitely ends Link > Tingle > G-Dorf; 70% > 20% > 10% --- *shrug* |

It's not anything about having a close match with everyone, it's that people find the joke stale now and want something new. I thought 50-50 seemed about right! Would've been so good on Oracle if I hadn't expected more rallying for Missingno. My original gut instinct was 40-40-20, Missingno. wins by just one vote. Would've been a 49.28. Of course, I still didn't do too badly--42-39-19, 49.00 on the dot. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
