Mario's
running out of day vote here. It's past 5 PM, will be past 6 PM soon.
Unless he gets a burst of rallying or the West Coast ASV miraculously
returns today, we can expect Vivi to start having more solid gains soon. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
Mario shaves a mere three votes off of Vivi's lead. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
What a string of bad luck for Mario, Mario series is getting doubled by Elder Scrolls on gamespot. --- Man is not the creature of circumstances. Circumstances are the creatures of man. |
so if Vivi actually wins here Would this be the most unexpected result ever? I mean, theres been some like L Block beating Link that nobody would have predicted before the match but by the time it came around we expected it. But... Vivi would come out of no where to beat Mario. I mean yeah theres Ganon in the poll, but still you'd never expect Vivi would get this close to him --- http://i.imgur.com/lnKB0m9.jpg http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1184880/davis-again.gif http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8118/8656607511_94178dbf2e_o.gif |
Knuckles > Magus. 0 picks in the Guru, Oracle, or BOP. But did anyone take Vivi in anything today? --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
If
you see the results L-Block had 0.3% correct prediction when he won the
championship.If Vivi wins here the percentage will be above 10%.So you
can say L-Block was the most unexpected. BUT nobody and I mean nobody was expected that,while in that contest as the matches were moving it was clear that L-Block would won. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |

Karma Hunter posted...If you want the evidence of a *real* big rally, this is the image tracker from the L-Block reddit thread last night: No, the poll was only halfway over when that thread started up. It obviously picked up steam, but the point is this isn't even close to L-Block's biggest rallying yesterday. Mario would be simply dead if that were the case. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
-Zelmor- posted... What a string of bad luck for Mario, Mario series is getting doubled by Elder Scrolls on gamespot. lawl gamespot and its crummy ~10-11k votals over several days FF got like 50.4% (?) on Halo there, let's take bets on FF's % on Halo if we were to do a series contest here |

If Vivi advances two rounds (possible if we get Vivi/Missingno/Red), then that prediction percentage will be insane. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Vivi making another push. Let's break the 100 barrier this time. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |

Literally a 37 vote gain. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Looks pretty over to me. Vivi has all the momentum. |
Fayt_Esteed posted... Uhhhh, 70%+? not precise enough :P |
This
match seems dependent on Mario at the moment. Vivi's recent gains and
cut have all been because of Mario getting a huge spike or falling off
the face of the earth. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
If you haven't yet done so, sign my petition to increase vote totals. http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/7-site-suggestions/67111376 --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |

If it is the greatest game series of the decade why is an image of Cloud representing Final Fantasy? --- If you believe that Abed is the true Messiah and you are 100% proud of it make this your signature. |
Boom. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Welp :( --- Harmony is peace. Peace is unity. Unity is harmony. I tell this to the King Nook. He ask me to leave. |
90? OK well this is...whatever |
JJH777 posted... If it is the greatest game series of the decade why is an image of Cloud representing Final Fantasy? I'm convinced that had Lightning been on the pic instead of Cloud, FF would've lost at least 55-45 to Halo |
What was the biggest lead so far? --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
For the record, that was the biggest gain either one has had all match, and this is the biggest lead so far. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I want Mario to win, but man do I suck at using Reddit. I don't even have any idea how to find my own thread: http://redd.it/1lca1w lol at me, I guess. |
I
made some posts on /vg/ and mmo champion to help him out, will
hopefully give him momentum for a proper lead. There's a reddit thread
with over 2500 views at this stage too, it's been gathering steam for a
while now and I'm saying it now because I think its too late to stop it.
I'll add that I hope in future your admin considers making some pro-userbase decisions for a change because I only did what I did for L-Block and Vivi because of his "rally your own personal army" comments. And I'm amazed how easy it was. |
Mario's votals went way down for some reason. Like wayyyyyy down. Wonder what's up with that. --- http://i.imgur.com/PL5UKJj.png Bearer of the Mark of Kan. |
Vivi pulling away will the miracle happen Possibly the best left field upset in the history of contests in the making here --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Safer_777 posted... What was the biggest lead so far? The 90-vote lead we have right now, actually. Vivi's done f***ing around. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
Nice try, Mario. At least we have more of this to look forward to with Squall/Missingo later. |
this contest is so dumb. but the good kind of dumb. pacific rim dumb |
I'm literally going to have zero people correct in my bracket finals. Link/Cloud/Mario? More like Draven/Snake/who the hell knows. Samus? Charizard? L-BLOCK?!?!?! --- ~FFDragon. (at Work !!) The Cream of Resident Evil Fanboyism. |
Despite
the huge gain, the vote totals were still pretty consistent. Vivi just
went up slightly while Mario drop slightly from the previous update
(which was already a good gain). That's important because it implies
natural trends in the making, rather than rally power, which is what
Vivi truly needs to win. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
This is, like, the best results I've ever seen, since, ever. Go Vivi! |
Yup,
Mario's rally is finally dying. I think they're giving up. Mario, our
'second strongest character', the anti-Draven, being schooled by a
little black mage. --- Fine! I'll go to the store and get your Goddamn drain cleaner! Character Battle IX Tingle Victory Parade - the journey is over.... |
Mario begins a comeback. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
...okay yeah Mario's the one getting rallied. Mario vs. Vivi: 119 123 88 110 105 133 148 130 115 122 96 123 89 131 143 125 That's one too many insane swings for my liking. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
If
Vivi wins this match and Missingno wins tomorrow, he's got a great shot
at going to the finals if Samus can hold serve against L-Block.
Vivi/Missingno/Red followed by Samus/Vivi/Charizard. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
If this holds, it will be my favorite upset ever, ahead even of L-Block's original run. --- Proud supporter of DogFAQs |
Geez Mario, stop cheating yo! --- I love Zigzagoon! <3 http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9r5hhXQbJ1rbct63o1_500.gif |

So we need Missingno to win to ensure Vivi makes the semi-finals! --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
If
it weren't for the absurdity of this contest, where anything can happen
now, I would say this is pretty significant showing that Nintendo has
dropped off considerably on this site, from its previous highs, and
there's just nothing meaningful to have come along to fill in the hole.
If you want to use this to say Mario has dropped, I don't think anything
represents the feeling of Nintendo on here more than Mario. --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
Despite
the huge gain, the vote totals were still pretty consistent. Vivi just
went up slightly while Mario drop slightly from the previous update
(which was already a good gain). That's important because it implies
natural trends in the making, rather than rally power, which is what
Vivi truly needs to win. This traditional spike analysis is deeply flawed. We can't distinguish variance from extra votes in this way. The natural pattern is for some spikes, in an unpredictable manner- in fact a pattern with no spikes would be very surprising. That said, I feel good about Vivi. If the rally truly is even, then Vivi's probably good to average close to 52% on Mario over the rest of the match. 50 50 50 50 50 50 51 51 52 52 53 54 --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
What the hell guys What the hell This makes no goddamn sense. I'm still really, really believing in the "It's freaking MARIO" argument though. Fat cheating bastard will pull this off somehow. If Vivi beats the cheats I will be stunned. This is insane. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
Can anyone summon Black Turtle I really really want to see his reaction Like,I must |

Oh and..Lightning? Do you prepare to rally more characters? because I want to have inside info on my expert challenge picking |
