GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1197
Galaxy
deserves to win here, even though the Wii remote literally makes any
game's controls horrible, both Galaxies were awesome. Probably the best
3D platformer of all time. |
LeonhartFour posted... I told Jeff Zero to vote. tell him to play trails in the sky again while you're at it also to come back =( --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
SMG2 and Mass Effect should have similar vote trends, we could end up with another Paper Mario/ToS --- BGE3: Today's Matches SSBWiiU>Planescape, SMG2>ME, Halo>Minecraft, FFVII>Journey Points 10/12 |
Man this poll reminded me to get and play Planescape. ...Next D+D GOG bundle's when I get it. |
I thought Skyward Sword had pretty good controls honestly. --- This was my signature, but Raytan, 2013 Guru champion, took it away. |
two cuts in a row oh man this is already like 78% more exciting than symphonia so far --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Might
just be the transition period here for Mass Effect. Been stalling for
about 30 minutes now and that's 2 cuts in a row. 1 or 2 more bigger ones
and I'm ready to call it a trend. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
Mass Effect surges through 47%, it took only 25 minutes to go from 46% to 47%. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
TheCodeisBosco posted... What do we think Pokemon RB gets on Tetris tomorrow? Am I crazy for thinking that a tripling isn't out of the question? It's possible. R/B is one of the worst matchups for Tetris to boot. Both are 90's handheld games. Could be some SFF there, though Tetris shouldn't be strong to begin with so no way to tell. pjbasis posted... I find it hard to believe 1 in 5 voters even played Planescape Well the playrate for Smash Wii U is probably not what I'd call "universal" here (say 85+%). I've never played either game. Which means normally I wouldn't vote, but the format kinda pushes you too. I had heard very positive things about Planescape and it seems my kind of game, so I voted for it based on greater respect. I'm sure others did this too. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

Could be some SFF there, though Tetris shouldn't be strong to begin with so no way to tell. Eh, Tetris' almost universal playrate and multiple releases make it so it doesn't have to rely on people playing the Gameboy version. I wouldn't think the SFF would come from there. --- .-#Elements of Water#-. |
Both Galaxy games are good, but they would be legendary without the Wiimote. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |

Time | TTYD | Symphonia | Votes | Demographic EBV | 58.33% | 41.67% | 624 | (0:00-0:05) PHV | 53.97% | 46.03% | 3574 | (0:00-1:00) FNV | 50.68% | 49.32% | 7594 | (1:00-6:00) BSV | 51.89% | 48.11% | 4093 | (6:00-9:00) DSV | 52.27% | 47.73% | 9300 | (9:00-14:30) ASV | 51.22% | 48.78% | 8654 | (14:30-22:00) SNV | 53.91% | 46.09% | 1664 | (22:00-24:00) Symphonia was only about 100 votes away from winning the night vote outright. TTYD got a little bump toward the end of the match, for some reason.

Pretty interesting to note X/Y did noticeably better at night, very un-Pokemon-like. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Mass Effect just won its biggest update yet, it'll be interesting to see if it can cut SMG's lead down before morning. --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |
Wow, looks like we have a real match. Though Mario should win in the AM, as Nintendo is very weak in EU and Mario is winning NA. |
Rest in peace Super Mario Galaxy. Rest in peace my bracket. --- This was my signature, but Raytan, 2013 Guru champion, took it away. |
pyresword posted... Rest in peace Super Mario Galaxy. Rest in peace my bracket. 9 vote cut a little too early for that especially when SYMPHONIATRENDS predict like a galaxy gain of 14 next update --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
It's a GameFAQ's contest it's never too early to sound the panic alarm. --- This was my signature, but Raytan, 2013 Guru champion, took it away. |
Zelda with a strong board vote, Power Hour, and day vote. Pretty interesting to note X/Y did noticeably better at night, very un-Pokemon-like. When you think about it, the only people playing new Pokemon games in 2015 are the same people that watch My Little Pony. X/Y having a strong SNV makes sense. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
it's pretty rare for anyone to comment on the charts, so uhhh, thanks for that, I guess --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Unfortunately,
there aren't any good analog matches for Mass Effect against Mario to
do trend projections. The best I could find was Shepard vs. Sandbag
from back in 2008. Based on Shepard/Sandbag.......Super Mario Galaxy 2 wins with 50.28%. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
I guess that's as good as any since that was when Shepard only had ME1 to his name. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... Zelda with a strong board vote, Power Hour, and day vote. Pretty interesting to note X/Y did noticeably better at night, very un-Pokemon-like. Zelda has one of the worst night votes among the major Nintendo franchises. Only Metroid is worse than Zelda when it comes to the night vote. Zelda is really weak in Asia, while Pokemon is one of the few Nintendo franchises that does well in Asia. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
BlAcK TuRtLe posted... Zelda with a strong board vote, Power Hour, and day vote. Pretty interesting to note X/Y did noticeably better at night, very un-Pokemon-like. Rofl, I know at least 30 people that play the new pokemon games, and none watch My Little Pony. --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |

25
vote cut. My feeling is that Mass Effect has this one. It'll lead
well before morning, and Mario won't be able to do anything with the day
vote, much as Paper Mario couldn't do anything with the day vote
against Tales of Symphonia. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
Admittedly
I guess I was already expecting Mass Effect to come out of the night
vote ahead so this is going more or less as expected. --- This was my signature, but Raytan, 2013 Guru champion, took it away. |

LeonhartFour posted... it's pretty rare for anyone to comment on the charts, so uhhh, thanks for that, I guess I like having the summary charts in the stats topic, since it means I don't have to go to the poll updates and figure it out myself, it's just that most of the time those charts are pretty self-explanatory. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
too bad this isn't me2. better memes i'll probably still be tempted to use a couple >_> --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |

To be fair, I think there's a pretty big difference between TTYD and SMG2 in terms of day votiness. I think Galaxy still has this. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
Finally a close match this contest. --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |
Lets wait for a more cuts before we celebrate. Who else picked ME? I did. |

there's always Commander Shepard is a Jerk quotes Some days, I shut down Mario Galaxy. Some days, I defuse rallies. Some days, I like to enjoy GameFAQs Contests. You understand me? --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Oh and I also like reading those charts, but there just isn't much to comment on usually. --- This was my signature, but Raytan, 2013 Guru champion, took it away. |
I've got ME and I'm not celebrating at all, still don't know what to make of the match. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |

I
have Galaxy 2 winning two matches and I could not be more happy if I
was wrong. f*** both Galaxy games and everything they stand for. f***
the system they're on. f*** motion controls. f*** casual gaming. f***
everything Nintendo has done since the second Wind Waker was released
and they learned they could half-ass it with gimmicks and have them
sell. And f*** the DS too while we're at it. My generation > your generation. Mass Effect deserves to win this s***. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
Yeah, Mass Effect is winning this. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
