GameFAQs Contests

maan, ff7

Leon, what does ff7 project on ff9 at this point in their respective matches? like 60%?

Based on the direct matchup with OoT, FFVII wins with 55%.

DpObliVion is the new greatone. Congratulations to our Guru overlord.

FF9 second strongest FF game confirmed

A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice.

But man even if there's no CT/FF6 SFF here and we presume a bunch of FF7/FF6 SFF, FF7 is going to need to make a titanic movement for CT > OoT to still look plausible.

Welcome to the League of Antivotes.

I feel like Smash and Pokemon are probably doing better than they'd normally do cause we're still getting the effects of the rallies in the recent days as evidenced by the votals. It's not all Undertale that was rallied after all. Those two put up a fierce fight.

No problem!
This is a cute and pop genocide of love!

make this a little mini bracket

tomorrow: ct/rby, melee/oot

if not this, at least ct/oot

call it 'by popular demand'

Dp crushed the other gurus into ObliVion

It's all over in 23:29:48

Welcome to the League of Antivotes.

well, 'it's all over in xx:xx:xx' confirms that this is the end. too bad. CT blew away everything it had an honest shot at this year.

here's my end of the contest thoughts, undertale-less edition:

1. ocarina
2. chrono trigger
3. rby
4. ff7
5. lttp
6. mario world
7. mario 3
8. mario 64
9. ff6
10. majora
11. melee
12. super metroid
13. wind waker
14. twilight princess
15. mario rpg? wonder if this match has sff because if not, holy cow

Unless FFX has dropped since Game of the Decade, I think Super Mario RPG's results this contest definitely suggest it would lose to FFX.

[NO BARKLEY NO PEACE]
[NO DpObliVion NO PEACE]

But man even if there's no CT/FF6 SFF here and we presume a bunch of FF7/FF6 SFF, FF7 is going to need to make a titanic movement for CT > OoT to still look plausible.

Using SSBM registered voters give CT a 57/43 win over FFVII so as long as OoT stays above it I don't think there would be much argument.

Congrats to DpObliVion for winning the guru.

Now that OOT lost, I think it's weak early vote should be gone at least for the moment, so we should get a big FFVII rise tonight.

NEVER FORGET.

A good 2/3rds of the votes are from outside GameFAQs so it has an excuse but damn, I didn't expect FF7 to look this pathetic

yeah you can probably say that melee and rby are benefiting from the tumblr spillover.

CT is looking a little intrinsically weaker than OoT here, but with the way OoT was getting anti-voted I think I would've still favored CT in that matchup.

red sox take solace in CT apparently being a top 3 game on this website, rallies aside

Put Mario World vs. Mario 64 as a consolation match and get Mario RPG outta here

Besides, insinuating that either Mario RPG or Melee is battling for third is insulting to the #2 game on this site, Mass Effect 3.

Well technically the stats will show
1-Undertale
2-ME3
3-Melee

so Melee winning 3rd place match is on the money

They probably are, although RBY pulling away instead of dying off after the start is pretty bad for Mario 64.

Nothing this contest has given any indication that CT > FF7, aside from what OoT is doing to FF7 right now.

CT has every reason to SFF the f*** out of FF6. The 2 biggest SNES Squaresoft JRPGs. It can barely manage to beat what FF7 ended up with, and I think FF6 climbs back over 40% before this is done. This is a direct matchup, rather than some lazy extrapolation through a clearly weaker FFX

Would FFVII have benefited from Melee spillover against FFVI?

"Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything."

Ocarina rallied like... a lot. Attempted rallies on r/gaming, r/nintendo, r/zelda. Multiple Facebook pages with hundreds of thousands of likes linking to the poll. And other things I'm forgetting right now.

Everyone with a score of 71 or lower got the match wrong.

9 out of the top 104 brackets (8.7%) and 25 out of the top 1026 brackets (2.44%) got the match right. Game_Boy was the lowest ranked bracket on the Top 50 who got the match right. They went from 2033rd place to 43rd. It's too bad the Undertale semifinal and final were a day apart or I could track what percentage of people who had Undertale in the final bailed out against OoT.

No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585.
Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest!

Like I said, I think if we take the votals from the last 12 hours of the poll or so we'll be getting a better picture of where these games all stand. FF7 isn't *this* bad....probably.
