Safer_777 posted... Why people don't rally for Cloud? This is the hub of edgy Final Fantasy characters on the internet, there is no large sized site you could go that would have a higher proportion of people who like this kind of character more than Gamefaqs. Any rally is always going to hurt the likes of Cloud and Sephiroth. |
GameFAQs is the place that you would go for to rally FFVII for any other popularity contest. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
I'm
really liking my 51% prediction. Squirtle will be desperately rallied a
lot more but the trends work against it; there's a lot of votes to come
in. I'm going to drop Squirtle's chances of winning to 5% now, though.
Poke's not showing me he can come through at this rate. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
That's
why i always snicker whenever I see people proposing the idea of Cloud
being the 2nd strongest character. Just go to 4chan, tell them Cloud has
a chance of losing and i am pretty sure some of them would rush over to
anti-vote him. Snake and Samus are naturally stronger and have the benefits of rallying. Cloud, no chance in hell. --- Man is not the creature of circumstances. Circumstances are the creatures of man. |
Wow Cloud sucks. Wow |
I like that Squirtle has survived this long. |
Cloud
would be winning with 53-54%+ right now without all the outside
interference. Considering where this site is right now, that's not
awful. Still quite the fall from grace but it's not as bad as it looks,
even if he were to end up botching it. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
**** Squirtle, **** Pokemon, **** this match. Cloud better win this. --- http://i.imgur.com/CQVaT6Xl.jpg |
If Squirtle is managing to win in the night (even with a rally), isn't he supposed to win when the day votes starts? |
ZeldaTPLink posted... If Squirtle is managing to win in the night (even with a rally), isn't he supposed to win when the day votes starts? ...you know what, sure. Yes, you are correct. Prepare for imminent Squirtle blowout. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
Talk about pokemon domination...jeez --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baUY9LFlYh0 - KokorokokoroKOKOROkokoROKokoro-chan iu na http://myanimelist.net/animelist/raytan7585 |
All he needs to do is follow the vivi trends of keeping his nose in front. Bump some threads when he gets in trouble. 24 hours will be more difficult so he'll need to handle the dayvote on his base strength, if he can do that he's looking good. |
The
well isn't infinite. Vivi would have lost a 24 hour match despite the
superiority of his night vote to Mario's. I have no doubt in the
Pokefreaks sitting there bumping threads all day but my 51% prediction
has already accounted for that. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
So back after not being here for an hour when it seems like Cloud was starting to run away..and.. Squirtle is leading? HAHAHAHAHA what ...I don't want him to win,or to be rallied...we need all the help in the world to let Mewtwo get every possible rally and beat Draven Although,Squirtle winning here would make it very obvious that all anti-Draven votes should go to Mewtwo and not Sephiroth |
Karma Hunter posted... ZeldaTPLink posted...If Squirtle is managing to win in the night (even with a rally), isn't he supposed to win when the day votes starts? I know that you said yesterday you really don't want to tell people about "FFVII is good in the day too" but IIRC it was you that said FFVII wins the day against everyone that is not Zelda,Mario..AND Pokemon? |
Nanis23 posted... Karma Hunter posted...ZeldaTPLink posted...If Squirtle is managing to win in the night (even with a rally), isn't he supposed to win when the day votes starts? No, that was not me. But it is correct: Pokemon's day vote is better than FF7's. It's currently on track to lose the day vote despite that. I'll leave the reasons to your imagination. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
Why are Pokemon considered to be joke characters? --- "You are insects railing against the heavens. Your actions will change nothing." - Uhai, Fire Emblem 7 |
OrangeCrush980 posted... Why are Pokemon considered to be joke characters? Yeah, I'm not considering Squirtle a joke at all. |
Cute, love/hate figures, species and not actual characters so perfect protest vote. |
There
are well over a million people on facebook that 'like' the Final
Fantasy 7 fanpage. If someone could get them to post something I'm sure
that would help. I sent a message, but who knows if they even read that
stuff. --- The storm approaches. Time for a true display of skill. Graves - Caitlyn - Ezreal // Janna - Alistar - Nami |
How annoying is it having to explain how why ffvii will win the day vote every single time theres a Cloud or Seph match? Diluted anti votes,rallys been less effective when theres more votes coming in blah blah its been said 1 billion times. |
..up to 87 This thing is working But not 260-votes-per-update working like Draven rally So good luck keeping it up for 15 more hours |
Keep rising, Squirt. |
of
course squirtle can still when if the pokefreaks rally for the next
16hours, or hell lose the same way kirby did if they give up |
Want to see Squirtle winning if it will shut Karma Hunter up. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Yeah
there is some rally potential with FF7 - that fanpage linking the poll
would instantly put this match away, if the Link match is any indicator.
That being said they're not nearly as likely to intervene as even the
Zelda fanpages were in the Draven match. Rally power is going to go all to the Pokemon in this match, as I said. They got pretty intense when Cloud snagged the lead so it's just really a matter of if the natural GameFAQs votes can overpower them here. Indications are yes but with the ridiculously crap votals we're at naturally you can't rule out the outside chance of Squirtle winning. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
I'm feeling good about this rally, /v/ is unusually united behind it. |
CP724 posted... of course squirtle can still when if the pokefreaks rally for the next 16hours, or hell lose the same way kirby did if they give up The aim will be to get ahead by a few hundred, take a break and rally back when Cloud catches up again. Squirtle seems strong enough to not need constant rallying. |
Lightning Strikes posted... Want to see Squirtle winning if it will shut Karma Hunter up. Considering I've been talking about the intrinsic strength of Pokemon getting massively, desperately rallied in every match it's threatened since day one, this is pathetic sour grapes. Squirtle still has an outside chance of winning this match if the rallies intensify, which they look to be doing. We've still got a long way to go, so it's going to be difficult. Cloud would be up by a lot right now without outside interference. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
Ugh, Pokemon. --- Currently Playing : Earthbound(Wii U) Currently Awaiting : Splinter Cell Blacklist(Wii U) |
Wow, Squirtle's taking off now! |
The quickest way to get me to support Draven is to flood the final nine with pokemans. --- If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? [HERO'S PLUNGE] http://img.imgcake.com/finegifdy.gif |

Cloud can't do it. How strong is Squirtle? --- 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~ |
Actually Karma Hunter has the most accurate predictiosn in the stat topics so far from what I recall Altough some of them are "he will win" with a "but..." to back him up if there is some kind of a surprise....but he is still the most consistent about his predictions |
Hey KH. Do you think it's a coincidence that this just happens to be occurring during the morning vote? I'm not denying the usefulness of rallies but it's not like we've seen huge ones for Squirtle. I just looked at the /v/ thread, it's not doing very well. /v/ itself is not a very good source for rallies typically, the Reddit rally thread died instantly, and while I do think rallies were what was helping Squirtle stall back there, it's not like Cloud would be leaps and bounds ahead anyway. Rallies were what gave Charizard the win, but if this keeps up I'm not sure Squirtle will need them. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Pokemon gets rallied News at 11 --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Lightning Strikes posted... Hey KH. It's as much a coincidence as Vivi rallies intensifying during the ASV. That is to say, none. Squirtle is doing better to Cloud's actual baseline, as he should, but the heavy rallying is keeping him in this. Pokemon gets hugely rallied in every match it's threatened. This is not anything new. It is a huge part of its intrinsic strength, and something that should be accounted for in every match it's in. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
The only close match Pokemon has ever lost was to Metroid. Samus/Red/Zard Mewtwo/Squirtle/Samus finals Believe in Samus except there's a block in the way --- ~War~ |
Not taking rallies into account,I think Squirtle can put 47% on Cloud in this format Those rallies give him 4..5% extra...nothing more Still,a newcomer giving Cloud 47% is very sad |
Nanis23 posted... Actually Karma Hunter has the most accurate predictiosn in the stat topics so far from what I recall Well, it's hard to predict a match with heavy rallying, especially with Cloud. Note that I've never counted Squirtle out of this match, even when natural trends would assure him to lose 100%. And with this level of intake here, his chances are just that much better. Certainly not the 5% I pegged him with a little earlier; I'm definitely willing to say I was wrong about that. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
It amazes me that some of you are actually rooting for clouds lame emo ass. Literally the most generic rpg character ever --- ||Our the Yoshi|| ||The One True Character|| |
Better than a blue smiling turtle. --- 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... Lightning Strikes posted...Hey KH. Except it doesn't. The only really significant rally was Charizard's. You can say "every match it's threatened" but that's been one so far. And isn't that a contradiction of your "Squirtle is doomed!" Statements not very long ago? Pokémon is good in the morning, news at 11. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Cloud owns Squirtle owns Leon owns This is one of the best trios of the contest so far. --- ~War~ |
missingno had his fair for rallies too |
Missingno has had two massive, overwhelming rallies for its matches. There's been a Pokemon rally in virtually every one of its blowouts, for crying out loud. Yes, Squirtle's chances have improved markedly with this pace. This is because in addition to the rallies intensifying, his natural trends have improved relative to Cloud's baseline. But he needs the rallying or his raw intake is liable to slip to even with that baseline or worse. That's never even been a question. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
Missingno. did have rallies. And they didn't even work! All I'm saying is at the current rate even a rallyless Squirtle would beat Cloud. At least if these trends keep up. Also, the second part of that post made no sense. I mean, I know what you were saying, but the words are put together in an illogical way. So, if Squirtle doesn't get rallied, Cloud's baseline will slip? Because that's what your post says. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Missingno's
late burst was entirely rallies, he would have lost without rallies.
Even Allen literally said there was a late Reddit rally for Missingno. |
