LeonhartFour posted... transience posted...lttp's been pretty much equal to ocarina in every performance this year (not that that's easy to measure). in this SNES boosted environment, why not? (ocarina's slightly better probably, but LTTP's doing what, like 77% on Perfect Dark? if you set LTTP and Ocarina equal, what does PD/Suikoden 2 look like?) --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
I guess if CT proves itself to be our decisive #1 game FFX will still be in the conversation --- Goddamn Ocarina of Time |
Both
of today's matches are somehow ahead of the OoT match at the one hour
mark. Maybe there's something to having Zelda in both matches that
benefits each other when it comes to helping out the vote totals. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |

LTTP wins with 50.02% if you set PD and Suikoden 2 equal that is PD wins with 50.02% if you set OoT and LTTP equal --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif (edited 12/3/2015 10:04:39 PM)report |
You know if Mario World could hang with Undertale's early start rally I'm just saying and SNES games are this strong --- satoru iwata |
Let's say we're back in the pre-contest days. Is there any kind of spin doctoring, even remotely grounded in reality, that one can do to justify a Super Metroid > Majora's Mask pick? Even as someone who actually took Super Metroid to beat Super Mario Galaxy, this result is just baffling in every sense. --- Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
I think it's the close match that helps draw votes and the fact that one of the matches is not SotN vs DKC2. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
Clearly not to helping their performances though ...oh right MGS/SotC and MGS3/ME2 are both on the same day too agh --- Goddamn Ocarina of Time |
DKC2/SotN wasn't going to be a big vote draw anyways and that probably hurt vote totals slightly on the OoT match. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
TheCodeisBosco posted... Let's say we're back in the pre-contest days. I take SM > MM without a thought pre-contests. Super Metroid's pedigree is pretty ridiculously stellar. --- Goddamn Ocarina of Time (edited 12/3/2015 10:05:45 PM)report |

-LusterSoldier- posted... Both of today's matches are somehow ahead of the OoT match at the one hour mark. Maybe there's something to having Zelda in both matches that benefits each other when it comes to helping out the vote totals. Or more people are voting early in these matches since one of them was semi-debatable. I didn't vote yesterday until 7 hours into the matches. |
Oh, I meant "pre-contest" as in prior to this particular one. Not before contests as a whole. I should have been more specific, sorry about that. >_> --- Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
more proof that two games from the same series in one poll is bad news mgs3 watch out --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
tennisboy213 posted... Or more people are voting early in these matches since one of them was semi-debatable. I didn't vote yesterday until 7 hours into the matches. Really? I often hold back my vote in close matches if I have my favorite losing in my bracket. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Karma Hunter posted... TheCodeisBosco posted...Let's say we're back in the pre-contest days. Back in 2002 I remember Majora's Mask not being loved or even liked by GameFAQs so yeah i would have taken Super Metroid --- Not changing this sig until the Bengals, Bills, Lions and Colt McCoy win the Super Bowl (10/10/10) ~User of the Year 2015~ |

I take Super Metroid in a heartbeat after that RBY bomb in 09 --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
TheCodeisBosco posted... Oh, I meant "pre-contest" as in prior to this particular one. Not before contests as a whole. Oh haha no I gave SM a shot but it was something, like, 5% shot at best, definitely not something I'd ever take unless I was actively sniffing for upsets to diversify my bracket or something --- Goddamn Ocarina of Time |
I'm
thinking having a Zelda in both matches is hurting the weaker Zelda (MM
in this case). Like, some people might feel it's enough to vote for
one Zelda game and decide they should at least give the weaker Zelda's
opponent a pity vote. --- sharp. distance. |

are we going to blame the 3DS remake for Majora like we blamed the HD release for FFX --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
I thought we were joking when we said that Zelda games would get an excuse for every poor showing --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Is having two Zelda games here really hurting them? I kinda doubt that with the performance LttP is putting up on Dark Souls. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. |
the new Zelda excuse, I like it --- add the c and back away iphonesience |

Mac Arrowny posted... Is having two Zelda games here really hurting them? I kinda doubt that with the performance LttP is putting up on Dark Souls. Obv they vote for the first Zelda they see then get tired of voting zelda --- 9/2/2013, the day Reddit hacked GameFAQs |

TheCodeisBosco posted... Let's say we're back in the pre-contest days. Ignore stats and believe that this year is finally the year for Super Metroid to live up it's reputation. Super Mario Kart is a secret super powerhouse and would take MM to it's limit as well. Those are the only things I can think of. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
Okay chums we gotta get ready what's the next Zelda underperformance up next and how are we gonna make excuses for it --- Goddamn Ocarina of Time |

transcience posted... OOT proxy isn't a joke, we fought about that for years eh MM looks like a joke right now from where I'm sitting --- Goddamn Ocarina of Time |
what Zelda games are even left to underperform ...if MM loses it's really just OoT and LttP, huh SOTN/SM in the elite eight make it happen --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
Karma Hunter posted... Okay chums we gotta get ready OoT/SotN it's quote round and SotN has "What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets!" and OoT is stuck with "Hey! Listen!" --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
xp1337 posted... Karma Hunter posted...Okay chums we gotta get ready SotN with 88% --- Goddamn Ocarina of Time |
