So much for 'FFX has a crappy board vote'

Yeah, MMX isn't finishing above 60%.

FFX does have a pretty average board vote. But pretty average is good enough to take it from a western game. It's night vote is where it will do work in that kind of match.

Batman cuts percentage, but isn't really catching up. I think MMX got that one.

This is indeed surprisingly excellent taste if it holds. Did not give the site credit to do that.

2 questions:

- Based on current votals, what's the match total projected to be?
- Were people actually taking FFX over CT? What was the BOP on that?


Strictly speaking, on pace for 120k :P I dunno how the numbers work but getting 1400 in 15 minutes is a torrid pace compared to the daily polls this year. I'm guessing 30k??

And yah, some were. I considered doing it.

Yeah I had DQVIII for a little bit too. Board hivemind really went for Persona though, so I don't think missing it will be too big of a deal.

On the other hand, good job hivemind on MMX

Well 2/4 here.

I trusted you guys on Persona 3 and doubted you guys on Mega Man X.

I should have done the opposite on each.

I hope Half-Life gets at leas 35 in the end of this as well but FFX was obviously going to win.

yeah i don't think so. maybe like 53-47 by the end at the absolute closest.

all you need to take from this is people who visit GameFAQs will still vote for old ass 90s games whenever they get the chance, so I hope you adjusted your bracket accordingly.

DQ8 is one of the best JRPGs of all time. I don't even care about other DQ games but DQ8 is one of my top 5 JRPGs of all time.

the other half were Metroids and Metroid inspired indies

board did not influence either of my picks this time. was confident in MMX, and not confident in P3. really, tranny's DQ8 writeup gave me even less confidence in P3.

To my surprise, the script I normally use to track regular PotDs actually works for these contest matches. So I have a script tracking all 4 matches at the same time. I have the vote totals for every 5 minute update so far in all 4 matches.

I'm surprised that there are as many people outside of B8 that actually like Persona. Thought for sure it was one of those weird Board 8 circlejerks that noone outside of 20 people here have heard of.

Both Half-Life's are considered among the very best in each generation.

1 only seems weak because most of the praise goes to the sequel which is often considered one of the very best games of all time. The original has the problem of competing with that. Even though it's also fantastic.

After 30 minutes - Looks like these matches are on track to finish with about 3300 to 3700 votes at the end of the first hour.

True, but it was still a pretty unusual swing backwards after MMX dropped from the board vote.

But it will continue gaining for another 2 hours or so. Should recover nicely tomorrow too. People keep mentioning the ASV, but I have a feeling that we're not going to see much ASV this contest.

Dragon Quest might be benefiting from being directly under Chrono Trigger given they have the same art.

Is this an acceptable theory?
