Yeah Skyrim get far enough ahead that I can vote for Prime without worrying that it'll backfire on me! --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword (edited 12/2/2015 5:57:21 AM)report |
Dat lead change --- 109/152 pts - the GameFAQs' 20th Anniversary Best. Game. Ever. Contest! NP: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim/Super Mario 64 |
Oh hey, woke up when Skyrim took the lead. Outstanding. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
Well,
I was definitely wrong about Twilight Princess. Pre-Contest, I thought
Zelda would be a little more unstoppable. With the Tumblr spillover, I
really thought it would influence the match more. Granted, it looks like
Undertale's influx of votes slowed waaayyyy down over the last two
hours of the match, so there may not have been nearly as much spillover
as I thought there would be. If Undertale would have stormed back at the end, I wonder if there would have been a stronger Tumblr influence at the beginning of this match - like Skyrim vs. Phoenix Wright. --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
Also
- the U.S. keeps dropping closer to favoring Skyrim. Metroid is now
down to 51.27% in the U.S. If it keeps moving in this direction, Skyrim
should hold on to it's comeback. --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
Prime doesn't want to make this easy it seems --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |

Spillover appears to be in the 5-6k vote range (definitely enough to affect things); my guess is that Tumblr's split just wasn't much off 50/50. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
TP getting 44% on Mario must be the Zelda>Mario Hierarchy. No way does it get that much on SM64 indirectly. |
Qwaar posted... LordoftheMorons posted...Prime doesn't want to make this easy it seems Which is good and how it should be. Prime didn't have a chance pre contest so i'm proud of it's efforts. This is what the contest is about. Matches like this and ME2/Starcraft. Too bad battles like RBY vs Mario 3 or RBY vs Chrono are not going to happen. One thing I never would have imagined was the bottom half of the bracket having more interesting matches than the top half. Since pre contest it was basically what % OoT would steamroll games by and the #2 game contest was taking place in the epic top half. At least we can look forward to the RE4/SMRPG/MGS3/ME2/MGS1 Rumble in the last 2 divisions. |
I
don't think this ends particularly close. There's always a fight near a
lead change, but Skyrim should break out of that soon enough. This
probably finishes around 52/48. --- http://i.imgur.com/RHvCiY3.png |

Wish that was exciting because those games were doing super well rather than because they all look terrible! --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword (edited 12/2/2015 6:25:28 AM)report |

Oh s*** lead change #2 --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
This is one heck of a match |
These games really don't want me to get even a halfway decent amount of sleep Already looking at 6.5 hours max... can't go to bed now though! >.> --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
SAMUS ARAN NEVER GIVES UP!i!! |
Was about to post about a 1 vote gap, but it turned out to be a bad update Lead change #3! --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |

LordoftheMorons posted... Januzaj_Dragon posted... thats irrelvant, none of those games are elite but it's still a contest at the end of the day and its good to see some close matches. ME2 / MGS3 is going to be epic. |
Yeah the matches will be good, but it makes me sad that MGS has fallen as a series here --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Told you worry warts last night that Skyrim was fine. Reading 3 pages of SKYRIM IS FALLING was entertaining though. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
f*** I hope this has a classic finish Would be the perfect tonic for contests after yesterday --- http://i.imgur.com/wGndLtV.jpg Such a lust for revenge |

US/Canada down to 51.23/52.05 --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
I
haven't posted on Board 8 in a hot minute but so far this contest has
had some entertaining moments, especially this current MP/Skyrim
matchup. Someone needs to make fanart of Samus Aran fighting Dovahkin. --- http://i.imgur.com/GhorUQg.jpg ~Masa |
It's
interesting to see Skyrim winning despite losing in US, Canada and 5/7
of the major European countries. You can argue that the UK is the
biggest reason it's doing so well. --- BGE3: Today's Matches TESV: Skyrim > Metroid Prime, SM64 > LoZ: TP Points 127/152 |
Nah gotta be that 100% of the Myanmar vote --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |

If it isn't leading by more than 500 at the end of the day I'll be shocked. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
Okay, think I can finally go to bed 6 hours of sleep... yay....! --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
LordoftheMorons posted... Okay, think I can finally go to bed It's 3:30pm here and I haven't slept in a day. Hopefully I don't wake up with Metroid back in the lead. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak PSN ID - Kudaark Steam Name : skaalfa |
go Metroid not to Skyrim --- satoru iwata |
Metroid putting up a good fight. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
Metroid Prime has been cutting for a while --- BGE3: Today's Matches TESV: Skyrim > Metroid Prime, SM64 > LoZ: TP Points 127/152 |
I wonder when America's gonna flip. --- *ExThaNemesis* |
I hate to admit it but I was totally wrong about Skyrim I thought it's strength was overrated just because of how strong it was in the year it was released and it wouldn't hold it's strength this contest When it put such a terrible performance against Ace Attorney I was sure that I was right in thinking that But now going toe-to-toe with Metroid Prime? pretty damn impressive --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Nanis23 posted... I hate to admit it but I was totally wrong about Skyrim I guess it was a weird combination of Tumblr spillover and Ace attorney being underestimated or something ? I still have a hard time imagining Ace Attorney being stronger than last time. (edited 12/2/2015 8:35:25 AM)report |
Averia posted... Nanis23 posted...I hate to admit it but I was totally wrong about Skyrim PW isn't some Fodder tier game. Not if you understand anything about Gamefaqs coupled with low votals. |
so whos the consensus favorite at this point? it doesn't seem like either game really wants to win this --- http://i.imgur.com/aF7qUNh.jpg http://i.imgur.com/db8BkaS.gif http://steamsignature.com/card/0/76561197979294707.png |
2Dover3D posted... so whos the consensus favorite at this point? it doesn't seem like either game really wants to win this On the contrary. Metroid is trying its best to keep Skyrim from getting an insurmountable lead. As for the favorite... f***ed if I know. Any trends happening are wonky at best. --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
Isn't
skyrim being rallied? The same thing happened with Starcraft. IT had a
much stronger rally and when that died off ME2 just stomped. This is
much MUCH closer. I'd say Metroid has it. |
