GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1194
Votals
are now back to exactly what they were at yesterday. Basically the
first 15 minutes today were just front-loaded to the first five. --- Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs |
4/4 for me today --- Your signature is automatically appended to the bottom of every post you make. Your 'About Me' message is displayed on your profile page. You can include any in |
Most of what Melee is doing is just Portal weakness. But I had said before the contest that probably my biggest surprise was the lack of discussion Melee vs. FF7 was getting. If FF7 even gets past FF6. And if it beats FF7, I can see Melee getting bandwagoned against R/B. Less so against SM64. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
I
also don't think Portal 2 should have any trouble doing what it needs
to do, this is unironically Popular Game SFF from Melee today. The worst part is I'm serious. (fine, just take it as more evidence that Melee's going to the finals, whatever) --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
Portal 1 is nowhere near as relevant as it used to be. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |

Yeah I'm more concerned with GSC it could seriously go the distance with melee if it picks up a couple percentage points throughout the day --- Board 8's Voice of Reason http://i.imgur.com/chXIw06.jpg |
creativename posted... Most of what Melee is doing is just Portal weakness. Im genuinely surprised by the lack of Melee vs FF7 discussion. I have Melee winning and Im sure it'll be a close match. |
I'm not going to discuss Melee vs. FF7 when I have CT vs. FF6. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! Future 2015 Guru Contest winner. |
Overall vote distribution for yesterday's matches at various points in time: Time - Percentage of Final Vote Total 1:00 AM - 9.37% 3:00 AM - 19.22% 6:00 AM - 28.27% 9:00 AM - 40.77% 12:00 PM - 57.19% 6:00 PM - 81.59% This should give you an idea of how to project the final vote totals in today's matches. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
Why worry about Melee/FF7 when FF7 isn't making it that far? --- Congrats to 2013 Guru champ raytan! |
Melee
vs. GSC would be interesting if we hadn't seen Majora/GSC. though maybe
Pokemon is just a monster now. it's certainly got the performance of
the day going on right now. --- xyzzy |
no, Melee definitely looks better here. Portal >>> TWEWY --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
New Day New Way tranny Smash 4 and Pokemon OmegaRuby I feel like weren't too far separated in the hype polls --- Board 8's Voice of Reason http://i.imgur.com/chXIw06.jpg |
Xuxon posted... no, Melee definitely looks better here. Portal >>> TWEWY Fodder is Fodder. We just didn't know Portal was Fodder. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason http://i.imgur.com/chXIw06.jpg |
I wouldn't put much stock into what GSC is doing right now. Nobody outside of b8 cares about literal TWEWY. --- Your signature is automatically appended to the bottom of every post you make. Your 'About Me' message is displayed on your profile page. You can include any in |
Agreed that Melee looks better here, Portal would shred TWEWY. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
eh, Portal's gonna knock it into the 60s. GSC is looking at nearly 80% so far. hopefully it falls. --- xyzzy |

Was
FF7 the favorite to make it out of upper half? I wouldn't have
expected it to be the favorite after Cloud/Squirtle and the like. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
red sox 777 posted... Was FF7 the favorite to make it out of upper half? I wouldn't have expected it to be the favorite after Cloud/Squirtle and the like. Of the entire bracket? No. Pokemon Red/Blue – 22 Final Fantasy VII – 21 Super Mario 64 – 16 --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
LeonhartFour posted... Karma Hunter posted...Some of us were sure dangit Some of us also filled out their brackets on the very last day in a semi-conscious fugue state I mean, I'm just saying --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/4128-northwest-division-round-1-pokemon-crystal-vs-advance-wars Good comparison match --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I'm really liking so many matches a day more than I thought I would. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
guru so far: Final Fantasy VII - 64 (35.36%) Super Mario 64 - 33 (18.23%) Pokemon Red-Blue - 57 (31.49%) Smash Bros.

Wii U - 1 (0.55%) --- xyzzy |
this sure makes Persona 4 look bad unless Pokemon just automatically SFFs anything on a handheld R.I.P. Tetris --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Do the GotD xstats predict this match perfectly too? --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
Oh, huh, I guess FFVII has the plurality of guru brackets. Just misses it to RBY in BOP though. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/4186- Portal looks so much worse in today's match compared to that impressive performance against RE4 in GotD. I am hoping that Smash falls a lot overnight to make this match look more reasonable. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
LeonhartFour posted... this sure makes Persona 4 look bad Given yesterday's match that also makes sense --- Board 8's Voice of Reason http://i.imgur.com/chXIw06.jpg |
pjbasis posted... Do the GotD xstats predict this match perfectly too? Nah, this is above even what MM is projected to get. GOTD X-Stats say G/S/C with 73.04% --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
I
really hope we're just delayed in getting the leaderboard and assorted
stats. It'd be a real downer if we're just not getting them, can hardly
imagine that's the case though. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Based off Portal I guess Melee doubles Majora or something crazy too --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
GOTD projects Last of Us to be on RE4's level based off of this result, too. pjbasis posted... Based off Portal I guess Melee doubles Majora or something crazy too 63.15% --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
I think G/S/C might be overperforming a bit due to TWEWY's title being pretty incomprehensible. Impressed that KHII is doing so well as the II and 4 aren't really that obvious in the pics. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. Congrats to CBIX Guru Winner *Raytan*! |
LOLContests posted... I think G/S/C might be overperforming a bit due to TWEWY's title being pretty incomprehensible. MGS4's title is barely visible due to Old Snake's faded pic and all the black. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Wow, I'm kind of amazed MGS4 is getting trounced this badly. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
I have Melee beating Chrono Trigger before bowing out to FF7, if Melee can stay above 70% I'd say it beats CT. --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |
Well Old Snake is only in one game so... not like people are going to confuse him with Venom Snake or MGS3 Big Boss >_> --- Your signature is automatically appended to the bottom of every post you make. Your 'About Me' message is displayed on your profile page. You can include any in |

can you double check if the poll updates for Pokemon vs TWEWY, MGS4 vs
KH2 and TLOU vs Halo 3 are being collected properly? I think the script
isn't automatically collecting the updates right now. I've been manually
kicking off the updates so far. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
LeonhartFour posted... LOLContests posted...I think G/S/C might be overperforming a bit due to TWEWY's title being pretty incomprehensible. I know, but the the II isn't super noticeable either, so it kind of comes across as MGS Vs. KH in the abstract, which should favor MGS. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. Congrats to CBIX Guru Winner *Raytan*! |
Also,
assuming a constant KH2, MGS4's X-Stat value (based on MM in GOTD)
would be 31.52%, nearly a 10% drop from the 41.42% it had in GOTD. That would put it below Chrono Cross and San Andreas. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Also
MGS4 from what I heard is more like a movie than a game due to all the
cutscenes. Most games like that don't stand the test of time. --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |
(also before anyone says anything, I don't necessarily believe any of this. I just enjoy crunching numbers) --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
I would take San Andreas over MGS4 at this point --- Your signature is automatically appended to the bottom of every post you make. Your 'About Me' message is displayed on your profile page. You can include any in |

I think the script isn't automatically collecting the updates right now. I've been manually kicking off the updates so far. From the looks of it, I think the updater is working fine. I will say that the results pages can be a little glitchy at times. The large majority of the time, you will see the correct vote totals. Rarely, you will sometimes see vote totals that are slightly off. If you tried refreshing one of the results pages a bunch of times in between the normal 5 minute updates (try doing it around 12:57 AM EST, in between the normal 12:55 AM and 1:00 AM update), you might see slightly different vote totals. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
