Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1209
another 30 minutes, this time dreams of the shore near another world https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xU5tQIDMAEw --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |
My
first instinct was to take Shovel Knight but I took it entirely because
I thought GTA would fall off a cliff here. The board convinced me I'd
gone crazy so I switched... but to see it talked about even as an
outside chance makes me laugh a bit about the change. I think I made the right choice in switching though. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
LeonhartFour posted... I feel like indie games have a pretty low ceiling, barring rally power a la Undertale. With indie games, the big limiting factor to their strength is their lack of playrate and because they don't get advertised as heavily as the big-name games. So it's difficult for indie games to get high playrates. I generally go under the assumption that most indie games are going to be bad fodder. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
*cues Beware of the Forests' Mushrooms Theme* --- "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." |
LeonhartFour posted... Time to start playing Mario RPG music. You mean the funeral music? --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
MAN, Oblivion is just completely crapping the bed here. I knew SMRPG would win the board vote, but this is hilarious. --- JAK The Character Battle IX people's champ. |
when I voted, the closest match was San Andreas/Shovel Knight well played, B8 --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
Damn it guys, like Grand Theft Auto --- BGE3: Today's Matches GTAV>Shenmue, SMRPG>Oblivion, GTA:SA>SK, CC>WoW Points 42/48 |
I'll
look back at the votals after the dust settles in about an hour or so. I
get so worked up over the first hour for no reason. --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |
so.... Shovel Knight --- Not changing this sig until the Bengals, Bills, Lions and Colt McCoy win the Super Bowl (10/10/10) ~User of the Year 2015~ |
LOL not even 60% on Shenmue? Yeah, the board vote is still not kind to GTA. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! Future 2015 Guru Contest winner. |
lol shovel knight i'll be so mad and confused if that happens i had it right at first! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Why did I doubt Chrono Cross. I'm a moron. |
So much for GTA boost, FF8 really flopped big time. --- Man is not the creature of circumstances. Circumstances are the creatures of man. |
now this is the gta i know and love --- Moltar Status: hype Contest Analysis Crew Archives: http://thecrew.speedrunwiki.com/ |
ARE YOU SERIOUS SAN ANDREAS WHAT IS THlS JOBBER --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
SMRPG and CC will probably drop under 60% eventually, but I think they're in good shape. Both GTAs should only go up from here. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Given how rabid Shovel Knight's fans are, a rally seems highly likely. We could be in for something serious here. --- JAK The Character Battle IX people's champ. |
lol GTA And by transitivity lol FF8? --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
oh man am I going to lose every single match today if Shenmue pulls off a miracle I'm gonna be in rare form --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
Damn me for underestimating Super Mario RPG and Chrono Cross. And I had Oblivion going to the Division finals. There goes bracket. --- Video Games are pretty cool. |
Thank Christ I picked SMRPG and Chrono Cross next round --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
RacistFAQs confirmed --- Ole, ole, ole, ole. Ole! Ole! (Accents and inverted !-marks missing) On a bet with three other users on if a certain girl genie will be in Smash; I say no. |
Too bad my bracket has been such trash lately or this division would be putting it on the path to redemption. >_> --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? (edited 11/16/2015 9:06:29 PM)report |
10
people fell off the Top 50. MrSmartGuy, FarinacM, magikid, DaGame007,
Evillordexdeath, spanky1, Then00bAvenger, Blazekicker27, eaglesarebeasts
and Flaming_Fire619 had at least one of Super Metroid, SMG, FF12 or MM
losing. 2 people got one match wrong and survived. Lokarin and MegatokyoEd are still on the top 50 despite only scoring 3 points. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
division 7 easy mode --- xyzzy |
seriously, how many people have even played Chrono Cross. Ideologically, there is no way this should lose to World of Warcraft. --- Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. |
As long as these trends continue, the Gurus are going to lay waste to the rest of the site in this division. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! Future 2015 Guru Contest winner. |
Hahahah I have Oblivion in the division finals. --- http://i.imgur.com/M1heX2g.jpg RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
I have SMRPG in the division finals! :)! --- Hello, I'm Chris! https://media.giphy.com/media/2ZtIpjwFFjLHLNREpCU/giphy.gif |
Using the 2010 match Twilight Princess is expected to triple Grand Theft Auto V --- BGE3: Today's Matches GTAV>Shenmue, SMRPG>Oblivion, GTA:SA>SK, CC>WoW Points 42/48 |
That said, neither GTA game ever had any shot next round, especially after Dragon Quest VIII 'impressed'. --- http://i.imgur.com/M1heX2g.jpg RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
so... SMRPG is Majora's Mask level in GotD? --- Not changing this sig until the Bengals, Bills, Lions and Colt McCoy win the Super Bowl (10/10/10) ~User of the Year 2015~ |
seriously, how many people have even played Chrono Cross. Ideologically, there is no way this should lose to World of Warcraft. Honestly more people on this site have probably played Chrono Cross. World of Warcraft has a playrate of something like 25% --- BGE3: Today's Matches GTAV>Shenmue, SMRPG>Oblivion, GTA:SA>SK, CC>WoW Points 42/48 (edited 11/16/2015 9:08:48 PM)report |
guffguy89 posted... seriously, how many people have even played Chrono Cross. More than you'd think, especially on this site! PS1 Square is one of the sweet spots for this entire site. except for FFVIII apparently augh Undertale rally DESTROY MARIO WORLD --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Shovel Knight won that last minute by one vote. Saw the loss coming, but hopefully Oblivion at least makes it respectable so I don't feel -too- silly. --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
Whiskey_Nick posted... so... SMRPG is Majora's Mask level in GotD? It's a Mario game, an RPG, and it has both Nintendo AND Square attached to it? Super Mario RPG top tier game confirmed --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
MM is not that strong of a game! (SMRPG has also got a good pic factor imo, though obviously that effect is minimal in the grand scheme) --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
Absolutely f***ing pathetic from gtav. 1 seed and you cant even 60-40 shenmue. --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
Didn't yo say GTA was more likely to find a way to job to Shenmue or Shovel Knight than beat Super Mario RPG or Chrono Cross? --- raytan is the guru champ, yo yo yo He won it in the year of the draggy crow |
Welp. I seriously misjudged this division. I'm pretty out of touch with gaming these days, so I did not expect to do well in this. My bracket has actually been doing a lot better than I expected - not great, but not horrible, either. However, today's matches are definitely screwing me over. Particularly WoW, which I thought would do a lot better. |
So... suppose Mario 1 is in Shenmue's spot. What % is it at? --- http://i.imgur.com/M1heX2g.jpg RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
Whiskey_Nick posted... so... SMRPG is Majora's Mask level in GotD? Nah, Skyrim and age shifts and gamer preferences have seriously weakened Oblivion. A LOT of people see Oblivion as the worst of the last 3 Elder Scrolls games. Very uninspired in comparison. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
Yeesh... What if Chrono Cross actually pulls off the biggest blowout today? --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
WarThaNemesis2 posted... So... 65% --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
