Not_Wylvane posted... You're forgetting the golden rule, though: Snake Never Wins Contests. Don't joke. Snake's going to do the best of the Noble Nine, making the finals before finally losing to the unstoppable force in Division 1. (Not sure if I'm referring to Link or Draven there, but either way). And then I'm going to be the Guru champion, and Bacon will troll all of you by not having any other contests before CBX. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |

Now that I took a gamble and failed, the next expected result is Red > Wrex > Wario right? --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords. With what? ROT-13? -CJayC |
Match CV: (16) Wario vs. (4) Pokemon Trainer Red vs. (12) Urdnot Wrex Previous Round Wario 49.66% Creeper 28.80% The King of All Cosmos 21.54% Pokemon Trainer Red 70.78% Corvo Attano 19.49% Sissel 9.74% Urdnot Wrex 37.37% Cecil Harvey 33.72% Pit 28.91% Analysis I was so confident that my Cecil upset would have happen last round then Wrex came and ruined it. I also had Cecil winning this match and while Wrex won I no longer have any faith for the upset. Characters related to Red in 2010 have looked better which means Red is stronger than what I thought, plus there is the whole potential Pokemon boost. The ceiling for Wrex is also a lot lower than what I had for Cecil. I doubt Wrex is stronger than Garrus and Garrus did not show that he was capable of challenging Red. One thing Wrex will benefit from is Wario and Nintendo LFF in the match. While Pokemon and Nintendo tend to overlap less with each other the overlap is definitely going to be more than either character with Wrex. On the other hand Wario is the type of character that Nintendo fans would abandon to help Red so the split may not be enough to give Wrex the upset. It is a shame that we still do not have a proper idea on how strong Red is and given the characters in next round we still will not. Mega Man X and Ocelot seem to suggest Red is a high mid-carder and given Blues performance I would agree that he ranks around there. Overall it depends on how close Wrex is to Garrus and how well Wario holds up. charmander6000s Bracket: Cecil Harvey > Pokemon Trainer Red and Wario charmander6000s Prediction: Pokemon Trainer Red 39.52%, Urdnot Wrex 36.67%, Wario 23.81% --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
As far as I'm concern past contest performance means nothing this year for higher tier characters. --- @w@ Gamertag: SliceSabre |
GOOOOOOOOOD MOOOOOOOOORNING! What a pleasant result to wake up to. --- KB |
Red
is the heavy favorite, but what has that mattered lately? Pokemon is
too strong this contest though, cannot see the ralliers pushing for Wrex
here. He did impress me in his win, but as said I think Wario will roll
over and Wrex needs him not to. --- Still smilin' :> |
After
that huge Draven rally, it's like all of the Nintendo fans did the walk
of shame to the door. This contest has truly shaken up since then,
which has made it a "changing of the guard" like contest. This is the
most exciting contest I have watched since the BGE contest when I didn't
know this was NintendoFAQs. --- https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BMcwhStCYAAr-mC.jpg Dallas Cowboys and Mavs |
A missingno cut! No matter... Squall got cut once and he got right back up and returned the favor! --- I strongly agree with your sticked Shadow Hearts: Covenant topic. Keep up the good work. -Link the Midgit |
I am excited for Samus/L/Tifa now. --- ~ The Dilated One IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
SliceSabre posted... As far as I'm concern past contest performance means nothing this year for higher tier characters. Yeah, especially been tough for the Noble Nine -Crono loses handily to Pikachu due to Magus LFF, but wouldn't have beat Pikachu by more than 52-53% 1v1 anyway which is pretty embarrassing for him -Mario embarrasses himself even worse than Crono by losing to Vivi -Mega Man is pretty much f***ed due to Zero's presence. -Link might be lucky to break 40% against Draven. -Cloud looks like crap and might lose to Squirtle. -Sephiroth should win his three-pack with 24 hour matches, but both Big Boss and Kirby are dangerous, especially if Kirby gets a bandwagon for some reason. The fact that neither Big Boss or Kirby will fold might be Seph's saving grace, as they might split his anti-votes evenly enough for Seph to squeak by. -Sonic looks vulnerable to Mewtwo due to Bowser's presence. I don't think Sonic will lose, but it's certainly possible, -Even Samus could lose to L-Block, if L-Block can maintain his static voting block, and Tifa is an especially bad opponent for Samus against the Block. Snake is the only one who's safe. Even if Cloud didn't look like ass all contest, Sora being there due to Pokemon LFF dooms him. So yeah, a bracket designed to honor the Noble Nine and giving each member their own division, could result in only a single one of them winning his division. Most likely 3-4 will win their divisions, but that's still pretty terrible. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
I'm
still struggling what to do with expert. I have Wario -> Red ->
Wrex, I may change that but I'm convinced the crew have underestimated
Wario. Hmm. Maybe I'll switch the top 2 around. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
Why
is Tifa supposed to be an "especially bad opponent" for Samus? I know
there was that one match seven years ago, but that can't actually mean
anything, right? (glad I'm a huge fan of both of them now) --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Because of the TJF I guess. --- 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~ |
I guess those Squall stuffers are a lot more capable than those Tidus stuffers! RIP, my glitch! |
pre-thread up on /v/. People are undecided between Wario and Wrex |
So 2010 Luigi is expected to get 47.71% on Squall, does Year of Luigi make anyone take the upset? --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
Oh
damn, a pre-rally topic on /v/. If only I knew what /v/ is planning to
rally in this match, I could take advantage of the situation to score
free points in the Expert Challenge when most other users will get the
match partially incorrect. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
pre-thread up on /v/. People are undecided between Wario and Wrex They'll probably concentrate more once they find out who is winning between the two. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
LinkMarioSamus posted... Why is Tifa supposed to be an "especially bad opponent" for Samus? I know there was that one match seven years ago, but that can't actually mean anything, right? Because she's a strong character independent of both Samus and L-Block which means the percentage needed to win will be much lower, which benefits the static voting block character. --- *shrug* |
LinkMarioSamus posted... Why is Tifa supposed to be an "especially bad opponent" for Samus? I know there was that one match seven years ago, but that can't actually mean anything, right? I assume because she's strong enough to drag Samus into the L-Block red zone |
Safer_777 posted... Because of the TJF I guess. Grraaaahhhh you guys and your acronyms are frustrating the hell out of me. It's not "The TDZ" or "The TJF". The "T" in those acronyms stands for "The". It's either "The DZ" and "The JF", or it's "TDZ" and "TJF". Because "The The Jug Factor" and "The The Dead Zone" sounds incredibly stupid!.... Sorry, I really needed to get that rant out of my system... --- Big or small, I don't like Rabbits. They always look like they're about to say something, but they never do. PSN:Shimotto |
mikisho posted... Safer_777 posted...Because of the TJF I guess. well I can at least agree with you people should abbreviate things less --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
I
don't know I've ever seen anyone use TDZ for the dead zone, we normally
just type it out with the exception of trend charts right? --- *shrug* |
Chances of the remaining NNers to win next round: Link - 10% Sonic - 85% Sephiroth - 75% Snake - 99% Cloud - 75% Samus - 85% Mega Man - 10% Going by my arbitrary probabilities, four, maybe five, of the NN will make it to Round 4. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those! It could be fun! So... what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |

"TDZ" stands for Total Domination Zone, although "The Dead Zone" would acceptable as well since the TDZ happens during the least active voting period of the day. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
I
saw people a little while ago calling it "The TDZ" in this topic. But
regardless, it doesn't change the fact that "The TJF" is wrong.

Are you ready for the Red board vote?!?! (spoiler Wrex will win it) |
I hope the 4chan people decide to side with Wrex. --- 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~ |
Your turn, Red. Let's do this. |
10% for Link seems rather high at this point. That match seems kind of hopeless if you're a Link/Shepard fan. |

Yikes Mass Effect board vote. Alternately if this means rallies push for Wario we could see him in the Final 9. --- ~War~ |
Would be nice if we could have a normal result today. |
They're picking Wario over Wrex? wtf --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/330/958/a5b.gif |
2 minute freeze today. Also, Missingno's biggest update of the match was the final 3 minutes of the match. Missingno also got 2 straight cuts at the end of the match. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
hylianknight3 posted... Would be nice if we could have a normal result today. Wario ahead of Wrex,this is already not normal Knowing /v/,they will rally Wario to 1st place I don't care either way,Mewtwo and Charizard are the most important Pokemon currently bracket-wise |
shane15 posted... They're picking Wario over Wrex? wtf /v/ loves the Wario brothers. |
So they picked Wario as their champion right? --- 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~ |
Wow Didn't expect to see Wrex under Wario X_X This match is going to make Cecil look awful --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
Wario is too far behind. Though yeah it's kinda odd that Red isn't doubling him while Wrex is getting totaled. So...Pit gets only 60% on A FREAKING CREEPER? Then again, both are really more super-recent characters more than anything (no one cares about Pit's old games, and we've seen time and time again that "Brawl-only" characters tank in these contests). --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
There is no such a thing as "too far behind" in the first 10 minutes of the match Ask Squall |
They shoulda backed Wrex... --- POKEFEAR |
I guess Red wins easily. --- 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~ |
