The Mana Sword posted... Man, that Mario/Pokemon gauntlet would have been fun looking that those numbers. Mario World was beast mode. People give CT all the credit, nah man, Mario World. --- satoru iwata |
Grudge matches sound fun, even if spillover will still mess with it. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
Votal
update: Undertale 67342 - 49109 OoT. At this time in their previous
battles, Undertale had 70285 and OoT had 43481. OoT is still garnering
more votes than yesterday while Undertale supporters are putting
slightly less effort in than they did against Melee (or just deciding
that their votes are no longer needed). --- -Abraham Lincoln (edited 12/15/2015 12:49:50 PM)report |
Can
we use the new info from Allen (the referal traffic and the votes from
registered users) to calculate the backfire rate for each match? --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
The quest for a 20k lead. --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |
Smash Bros. Melee vs. Portal: 70.37% / 29.63% Smash Bros. Melee vs. Pokemon Gold/Silver: 57.72% / 42.28% Smash Bros. Melee vs. Kingdom Hearts II: 59.51% / 40.49% Chrono Trigger vs. Smash Bros. Melee: 63.28% / 36.72% Smash Bros. Melee vs. Final Fantasy VII: 42.92% / 57.08% HAH --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
CT > FFVII --- http://i.imgur.com/yrqRzHJ.gif DpObliVion gets to hang out with my sig waifus for winning the 2015 Guru |
Allen confirms SSBM is literally a joke game --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
Melee garbage confirmed --- satoru iwata |
Melee just slightly stronger than FFX --- http://i.imgur.com/yrqRzHJ.gif DpObliVion gets to hang out with my sig waifus for winning the 2015 Guru |
This'll
make adjusting the X-stats a lot easier at least. I'm just going to
give Melee 38% against CT and like...44% against FF7? Seems fair. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. (edited 12/15/2015 1:01:41 PM)report |
KamikazePotato posted... Smash Bros. Melee vs. Portal: 70.37% / 29.63% Rallying doing God's work, as usual. Also the next topic is the last one with a subtitle. I can't help how happy I am right now so hey. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest Congrats to DpOblivion in the guru! |
You would also have to adjust GSC's percentage on Melee as well. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
So is CT being the strongest game on the site in terms of registered users not even a bold prediction anymore? --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
Ocarina doubling Undertale in the finals is not bad! --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |

Yeah well it's not 2016 YET --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
I
think melee vs kh2 proves you can't assume registered voters are well
in line with what the final outcome would be in nonrallied conditions.
But still very interesting data and something to work from for adjusted
stats. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
pjbasis posted... Yeah well it's not 2016 YET What I mean is that I don't understand why people STILL believe in God when it's obvious he's a myth. --- You dare bring light to my lair? YOU MUST DIE! - CDI Ganon |
This is what we're going to do in the Contest Stats & Discussion topic right now really --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
I'm not adjusting KH2's match. Some games are just casualbait. CT already looked like it was going to 62-38 Melee - this just confirms it. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Yeah I think many of 2013's non-rallied matches had different results taking only registered votes into account too. Something dumb like Squall losing to Missingno so yeah registered voters suck --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
MegaWentEvil posted... pjbasis posted...Yeah well it's not 2016 YET If God isn't real then how come determination? God: 1 Nonbelievers: 0 --- -Abraham Lincoln (edited 12/15/2015 1:10:35 PM)report |
MegaWentEvil posted... pjbasis posted...Yeah well it's not 2016 YET Oh wow, such a strong argument. So mature. So off topic. --- I like giant robots. |

In
the non-rallied matches where Melee does better with the registered
users compared to the final result, this lines up very well with Melee
winning the board vote in those matches. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
Yeah,
we basically had confirmation last contest of what we had
long-suspected from the board vote: that registered users tend to favor
Nintendo: 4) Registered users only If, hypothetically, we were to restrict the contest voting to registered GameFAQs users (which we can't do in the middle of the contest, and which we couldn't get a budget or justify the hours for an entire contest), then we'd have a lot fewer votes (registered users only account for around 1/3 of the total), and a lot of different results: 5149: Jak over Draven 5171: Falcon over Alucard 5220: ?-Block over Rikku 5227: Mega Man X over Draven 5232: Luigi over Big Boss 5246: Mario over Vivi 5247: Missingno over Squall 5251: Zelda over Charizard 5253: Link over Draven 5255: Kirby over Sephiroth 5261: Charizard over Mega Man It's not all about Draven. Non-registered users impact quite a few battles, and would leave us with completely different results. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO DpObliVion NO PEACE] (edited 12/15/2015 1:13:32 PM)report |
Like every non-Draven had a worse result lmao --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
Mario over Vivi, Charizard over Mega Man absolutely disgusting you are making it hard for me to defend you GameFAQs --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
Registered voters know how to vote --- satoru iwata |
Luigi is new Big Boss. --- I like giant robots. |
Karma Hunter posted...
The 2/3 of unregistered voters are pretty legit though! --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
It just occurred to me what the most revealing thing about that list is. Registered voters only would not have flipped Auron vs. L-block despite the latter's large 4chan rally. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO DpObliVion NO PEACE] |

Luster, can you please explain how come most fake updates are in favor of OOT? how does it work? Because whenever there is a fake update, it's in favor of OOT and then in the real update Undertale wins it hard --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
-LusterSoldier- posted... Number of bracket entries with these games winning the entire contest: A decent amount of RallyFaqs brackets. |
Karma Hunter posted... So is CT being the strongest game on the site in terms of registered users not even a bold prediction anymore? Well, it's number one on the list and in noms for good reason! Whether that makes it strong enough to actually beat FF7 or OoT in an actual match is hopefully something we'll find out tomorrow! --- Not_Wylvane |
Nanis23 posted... Luster, can you please explain how come most fake updates are in favor of OOT? how does it work? The fake updates are caused by GameFAQs sometimes showing incorrect vote totals in between the normal 5 minute update cycle. The large majority of the time (over 95%), viewing the results page in between the 5 minute update cycle will show you the correct vote totals. But there's a very small chance you end up getting slightly different vote totals. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
Nanis23 posted... Can we use the new info from Allen (the referal traffic and the votes from registered users) to calculate the backfire rate for each match? Is no one interested in this? --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
205 for Minecraft uh I guess they thought it might be the Undertale of this contest Wonder how many people would have picked Hearthstone to win if it was against something else than OOT in the first round --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
We
could calculate the backfire, but I don't think it would be
particularly illuminating or useful. The general answer for all the
backfire in Undertale's matches has been "low", in short. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
A registered-only contest would suuuuuuuuuck is what I'm seeing. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest Congrats to DpOblivion in the guru! |
Nanis23 posted... Nanis23 posted...Can we use the new info from Allen (the referal traffic and the votes from registered users) to calculate the backfire rate for each match? We wouldn't really have enough information to figure it out with any degree of accuracy, I think. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO DpObliVion NO PEACE] |
Nanis23 posted... 205 for Minecraft uh I wouldn't be surprised if most of those people just thought Minecraft would legit win. --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
