is the Boss Fodderline official now? --- ~Zen |
Not if she's boosted enough to be equal with Sub-Zero! dangit Boss --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Thinking Boss is too strong to be the fodder line, at least right now. --- Proud supporter of DogFAQs |
Fodderline people don't threaten to beat Sub Zero. She's a legit midcard now. |
If The Boss pulls off an upset against Sub Zero in a day match. Just give her the medal already, one heck of an impressive performance by arguably the best character of MGS saga. --- Zinsanity of the Helix Board |
Pac-Man Fodder Line finally official, what a great day --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
The Boss has come a long way from almost getting tripled by Tifa. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
charmander6000 posted... The Boss has come a long way from almost getting tripled by Tifa. Indeed. And this pretty much confirms Celes as legit (though looking respectable against Knuckles helps in that regard). --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance!

Fayt_Esteed posted... charmander6000 posted...The Boss has come a long way from almost getting tripled by Tifa. The Boss/Celes was seven years ago, this match doesn't have any bearing on that. That's like saying because Mario's looking good that Crono's also looking great because he beat the hell out of Mario nine years ago. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

*Votes, checks poll* CHAOS ****ING SEASON What the HECK is going on with the matches?! I'm starting to believe Wylvane's theory of gamefaqs regulars bailing in disgust and being replaced by the reddit army. This result makes even less sense than Phoenix>Vincent! |
Karma Hunter posted... Fayt_Esteed posted...charmander6000 posted...The Boss has come a long way from almost getting tripled by Tifa. I'll admit, that's definitely true. The female bracket is just weird on all levels. --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
100 vote barrier breached, c'mon Boss you can turn it around just catch some fire with the ASV, um, somehow --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
KanzarisKelshen posted... *Votes, checks poll* how, Bowser>Sub-Zero>The Boss is completely expected maybe the %s aren't, but hey |
How does this make less sense than Phoenix>Vincent We were all commenting on how well The Boss looked last round. Also if 1 year can change a character's strength, imagine what 3 can do. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
This happened with Vyse too. Right after people say he's the line, he goes and radically changes his strength level! ,,,Come to think of it: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/4525 So from Rivalry Rumble, that's: -The Boss is legit. -Seifer bombing. -Pokemon Trainer Blue is actually strong. I can't wait to see how Chris Redfield do- OH WAIT HAHAHAHA --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
I can get on board the Pac-Man fodderline --- ~Zen |
This happened with Vyse too. Right after people say he's the line, he goes and radically changes his strength level! Funny thing is we did the same for Kefka too. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
1337gamerpr0 posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...*Votes, checks poll* Percentage matters! If this match was 33.90/33.70/32.40%, it would be a complete shocker as well. |
charmander6000 posted... How does this make less sense than Phoenix>Vincent Vincent's bomba can at least be partially blamed on the pic plus Phoenix getting access to a new fanbase. Sub-Zero has every reason to boost hard though, so it doesn't make sense for him to be much weaker and The Boss to have a shot at challenging him. |
charmander6000 posted... This happened with Vyse too. Right after people say he's the line, he goes and radically changes his strength level! Kefka's matches never make sense. --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Boss snaps the lead back under 100, and Sub's on the cusp of breaking 40% on Bowser. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Welp, time to bail on my Isaac Fodder Line idea. I'd rather not risk Isaac getting a boost and threatening Tidus or something. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Tidus fodderline! --- ~Zen |
Sub-Zero has every reason to boost hard though Why? This is like his longest gap between games since his first contest and I don't think a MK games has been announced in the future either. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
Maybe
we could go with a percentage, like if you can't break 20% on the
winner (excluding exceptions like Draven) then you are fodder. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
charmander6000 posted... Sub-Zero has every reason to boost hard though http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortal_Kombat_%282011_video_game%29 Biggest MK game in forever, exposed him to new fans, no reason for him not to roid since 2010. |
charmander6000 posted... Sub-Zero has every reason to boost hard though MK9 wasn't out during the last contest, so this is the first chance we got to see him & Scorp with it. EDIT: Kanz beat me to it --- Now Playing: Tales of Xillia (Jude Story), Fire Emblem Awakening |
Just
imagine, if Allen had used Paulg's MK3 pic (yes, he submitted non-ninja
Subby), we'd be looking at Boss > Subby right now. --- Proud supporter of DogFAQs |
Is this gonna be yet another episode of "nobody makes a move"? --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Ultimaphazon posted... Just imagine, if Allen had used Paulg's MK3 pic (yes, he submitted non-ninja Subby), we'd be looking at Boss > Subby right now. Worst guy ever, he keeps getting worse the more I learn of him, goddamn |
1337gamerpr0 posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...*Votes, checks poll* The % is pretty expected. You guys are estimating % based on 1vs1 matches for some weird reason. Sub-Zero is more casual friendly. Bowser is taking his votes. The Boss has more of a hardcore fanbase. --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
Ultimaphazon posted... Just imagine, if Allen had used Paulg's MK3 pic (yes, he submitted non-ninja Subby), we'd be looking at Boss > Subby right now. So how long until we hear people b****ing at Allen for not sabotaging the pic here? The more matches there are that make no sense, the better this contest gets. Vincent completely tanking to Phoenix Wright? The Boss hanging even with Sub-Zero? This s*** is insane, and I can't wait for Spyro > Theatrhythm Sephiroth. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
Boss
will have to hope to actually gain a little traction with the ASV.
Unlike most night-oriented characters, MGS doesn't really have a good
SNV. As for Luigi/Big Boss implications (assuming, lol, no sabotage), you could read this as good for either side. If you think this is just Boss being underrated from 2010, Luigi's looking real good as he should naturally be underrated as well. If you think this is Boss boosting from MGS3-related stuff, Luigi backers should be real worried as to what the star of Metal Gear Solid 3 might be set to do. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Speaking of Spyro, anyone giving him half a chance against Morrigan? What if Morrigan becomes TJF-less? --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
Not_Wylvane posted... So how long until we hear people b****ing at Allen for not sabotaging the pic here? the real question is what the hell is going on with you |
KanzarisKelshen posted... Ultimaphazon posted...Just imagine, if Allen had used Paulg's MK3 pic (yes, he submitted non-ninja Subby), we'd be looking at Boss > Subby right now. You, they guy who single-handedly is trying to get a character that no one here cares for to run over the bracket, claims that someone else is the worst guy ever? Your attempt at fixing the bracket had more potential (and did more) than any pic sabotage ever could. |
The Real Truth posted... 1337gamerpr0 posted...KanzarisKelshen posted...*Votes, checks poll* We've seen this happen in multiways too, the comparison doesn't hold. Sub-Zero got 45% on Sonic in a multiway while The Boss went 50/50 with Tails in a multiway. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

Your attempt at fixing the bracket had more potential (and did more) than any pic sabotage ever could. "it's only bad if it's not me doing it!" |
Let's be realistic, Kanz did not single-handedly bring 50k+ people to this site... --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
charmander6000 posted... Let's be realistic, Kanz did not single-handedly bring 50k+ people to this site... If there's no Kanz, there's no reddit rally. Assuming all of the votes were legit (which I don't assume in the slightest, but that's a separate issue), then yes, he is directly responsible for brining in 50K 1-time voters. |
I honestly don't understand why you people even bother responding to Kanz at this point. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Every time Sub-Zero nudges over 40% on Bowser and that 100 vote mark, Boss puts him in an armbar. No mercy. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Not_Wylvane posted... Ultimaphazon posted...Just imagine, if Allen had used Paulg's MK3 pic (yes, he submitted non-ninja Subby), we'd be looking at Boss > Subby right now. See, this is just wrong. The more matches that make no sense without outside interference the better the results. A completely unpredictable mess because our admin has his head so far up his own ass he can't see light, is not fun. --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |
Damn,
impressive showing by The Boss here. This makes the Bosses' margin of
victory over Tidus/Jecht make more sense now. I realized after the
Rivalry Rumbles that 1 game rivalries (like the FF characters or The
Bosses*) were just the average popularity of their respective
characters. The Bosses Vs. Tidus/Jecht was one of the only hiccups in
that theory, so nice to see this match redeem it. I wonder if The Boss has been hidden all along: -2006: Tifa overperforms due to possible FF/MGS SFF and/or 1 Seed overperformance -2007: The Boss/Tails both underperform since Vincent/Zelda were obviously both advancing. -2010: Don't really have an explanation for what happened here. Yeah being in day match hurt her, but Day Matches still got ~70% of the votals of a 24 hour match, so it shouldn't have mattered too much. *I've never played a MGS1 game except 1, so I'm not sure how many games the two of them are in, but I think the rivlary's mostly the 1 game right?) --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
For the record The Boss's rally on the MGS subreddit it on its frontpage now, #3. Don't know if it's enough for her to actually win here, because the subreddit is relatively small, but it's probably helping with the stalls. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
Stalls nothing, Boss is flat out cutting. Is Sub-Zero going to need the ASV to beat her? ...is she going to beat him with the ASV --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
[–]GeneralKazbar 2 points 58 minutes ago Just voted for her, all MGS lovers, please do your part and vote for her. Stay classy, board 8 ralliers. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
