blue might have the most rally appeal out of all the pokemon characters. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. |
ChenKenichiFan posted... I picked Mewtwo and want to make it seem like it was a genius pick instead of admitting that I'm benefitting from the biggest pic sabotage we've ever seen in contest history. Yeah we know. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
Honestly, if Vincent is THIS dependent on a pic then the dude has always been a half-fraud. This is ridiculous. He looks like complete and utter ****. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
KamikazePotato posted... By the way - Mewtwo's vote totals as of last update are starting to look increasingly unrealistic. Rallying might be having some effect after all. *Looks* Cripes, he just gained 250 votes. Sonic WAS gaining that much last poll...but that was Sonic. This is Mewtwo! |
MegatokyoEd posted... Honestly, if Vincent is THIS dependent on a pic then the dude has always been a half-fraud. This is ridiculous. Samus vs. Tifa --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
On a scale of 0 to ZSS, how bad is this pic for Vince It breaks the scale, at least ZSS had TJF --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
Everyone. Can we have SBallen do a bonus poll with regular Vincent instead at the end of Round 2? |

I think it's also the name. No matter what he looks like "Solid Snake" always means one thing. "Vincent Valentine" is as generic a name as that picture and doesn't call to mind FFVII Vincent at all. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
hylianknight3,
I felt that going with X > Ryu > Draven made the most sense
because picking Draven would have been seen as very risky. Since most
of this board would have gone with X > Ryu > Draven, the -18
doesn't hurt me relative to the rest of the board except for those with
Ryu over X. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Also
are we really comparing a day and a night match. Day matches get more
total votes but their starts are worse than the power hour. Comparing it to link's round 2 match it has 90 more votes with a minute more of voting. Totally within bounds. --- And I would do anything for bets, but I won't do that! No I won't do that! I am Sir Chris, the Knight that says NICK!!! |
HyperSage posted... TRE, how many alts do you have on the Expert Leaderboard? I kinda screwed up. I was supposed to tank my score before any of them got on the leaderboard so they wouldn't take up any slots. However, I stopped paying much attention to the contest for a bit due to not being happy with the Draven result and they snuck onto the leaderboard. That's why I changed my Vincent in 1st to a No Pick 1st to reduce their scores. This plan has now backfired spectacularly. <_< I guess I'll try sending in a feedback ticket or something. --- Pokemon VGC2013 US National - 39th place Pokemon VGC2013 Worlds LCQ - Top 32 |
Not sure if the rallying actually did anything. It's just not as easy for anything but LoL, but so far so good. |
Honestly
most of the blame needs to go to Allen. I dont blame the pic maker
because there's no way he could of expected that thing to get chosen.
Allen chose the pic and ruined a debatable match because of it. |
DSRKVRTheDealer posted... Everyone. Can we have SBallen do a bonus poll with regular Vincent instead at the end of Round 2? Ryu/X/Vincent with a good pic --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. |
Mewtwo still pulling in Sonic level votals. What in the name of **** is going on? |
charmander6000 posted... On a scale of 0 to ZSS, how bad is this pic for Vince Worse than ZSS? --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
ExTha I don't recall saying any of these things! --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |
MegatokyoEd posted... Honestly, if Vincent is THIS dependent on a pic then the dude has always been a half-fraud. This is ridiculous. Well he's an optional character in a game. I was always surprised he had as much strength as he did in the first place... he's pretty much irrelevant to the story. It makes sense people were only voting for him since he looked badass. --- http://i.imgur.com/lnKB0m9.jpg http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1184880/davis-again.gif http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8118/8656607511_94178dbf2e_o.gif |
I
actually feel like Phoenix could have challenged for 1st if he had a
good pic and Vincent had a normal pic. Mewtwo stands out so damn much
here. Just another reason to not care about this contest, I guess! --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Vincent
got doubly screwed - Reddit rallying for Draven means reddit rallying
for Mewtwo, and his picture is horrendous. That said, losing cleanly to
Phoenix, eh. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
In all fairness, next round Draven should be represented by a pic of a turkey club sandwich on the front page. |
I agree, and he's not even pointing :( |
MegatokyoEd posted... Honestly, if Vincent is THIS dependent on a pic then the dude has always been a half-fraud. This is ridiculous. He's a character who lives on design. You can play FFVII and never see this Vincent. You can play FFVII, see this Vincent, and still not immediately recognize who he is. Most importantly, he doesn't look 'cool' like this, to most people. Snake is as pic dependent when gets unrecognizable pictures, too. Big Boss suffers as well! Many characters are cool designs first. --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
ChenKenichiFan posted... ExTha I don't recall saying any of these things! Yeah I'm finding the subtext and picking them out of your real messages to show the rest of the topic what you're saying. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
By the way, if we get Donte, LOL this contest --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
GaspenPayne posted... I agree, and he's not even pointing :( No space to point though. Can't blame the pic for that, there isn't room even if you take Phoenix's best pointy finger pic. |
Worse than ZSS? Easily, Vincent looks like a generic anime school boy, even his name is bland. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
KamikazePotato posted... By the way, if we get Donte, LOL this contest It will be Donte vs. Squirtle Squad Squirtle. |
KamikazePotato posted... By the way, if we get Donte, LOL this contest I swear, if somebody pushes Donte in... |
Dante
has gotten multiple awesome pics from like every picsmith. If he gets
Donte'D, then it really is SBAllen phishing for drama and Pokemon fever. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/gdl8lcn.jpg |
Mewtwo falling back down, but I doubt he loses his lead --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
KamikazePotato posted... By the way, if we get Donte, LOL this contest I'm implore SB that if chooses Donte, he should at least have the decency to take the one I submitted. http://i.imgur.com/eVk78xS.png That way, we can at least have a middle finger on the site in a figurative and literal sense. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
KanzarisKelshen posted... GaspenPayne posted...I agree, and he's not even pointing :( someone made a pointy phoenix pic using his PW5 art, I believe it looked pretty good kp's also looked great I don't know wth bacon is thinking he's never had the best judgement with the face pics round, though --- ~Zen |
And DOES IT REALLY MATTER at this point. Squirtle is going to roll him no matter which picture Dante is rocking. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/a4GuDV3.gif |
Why not at this point? Draven is going to win so might as well observe just how pic dependent some characters are (Dante/Samus) |
somebody already did and you know it. now if donte is actually selected, that's a different story. and a guy who would lose to this vincent. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. |
When did yoblazer turn into a Pokemon freak I must have missed this transition --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
I also blame SBAllen, there are six submissions for Vincent based on the contribution page. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
Chris
is being ridiculous. I picked Mewtwo here but this is the next coming
of Solid Sprite, ZSS whatever you want to call it. This is the
difference pic factor can make. Vincent could easily be getting
something like 55-45 with a legitimate picture. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
what is that vincent picture? ugh |
ZenOfThunder posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...GaspenPayne posted...I agree, and he's not even pointing :( Can I see it? I'm curious about it. Also, christ Paulg ZenOfThunder posted... i think paulg submitted a donte at some point Really? |
ZFS posted... When did yoblazer turn into a Pokemon freak I must have missed this transition spoilers HE PICKED ALL THE POKEMON in his bracket --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
Donte vs. Squirtle in Shades would make me laugh my ass off. Quite possibly the biggest pic advantage in contest history for Squirtle. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
KamikazePotato posted... By the way, if we get Donte, LOL this contest You mean if we don't get Donte, LOL this contest does not apply? >_> --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Yeah and Barret getting nearly doubled by Sonic was in line with pre contest expectations too. Also Solid Sprite still wins his matches. RIP FF7. --- And I would do anything for bets, but I won't do that! No I won't do that! I am Sir Chris, the Knight that says NICK!!! |
yoblazer is heel now. he is the best user on the board in any world this board can exist and all that. there are many differences to be expected. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. |
yoblazer that is disappointing --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
If Samus got a flashback picture from Other M, could she lose to Knuckles? |
This is just the board vote, right? Phoenix isn't really going to manage second place here? --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
