SwiftyDC posted... What would be your reaction after seeing this result? Really shocked, because I bet CT could pull 45% on the entire NES library. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for 2017 Guru champion. |
I
would be quite surprised at 1987 beating 1995, but not the most shocked
I've ever been. However, if round 1 pics get re-used, that would be
the best thing possible for 1987's chances. Any pic changes would more
than likely benefit CT (er, I mean, 1995) and more than likely hurt
1987, relative to the previous round. "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." |
Yeah,
the years between 1987 & 1995 are very hard to determine. So are
the years between 2003 & 2005, 1992 & 1998, & 1996 &
2000. What I do know, is that 2008 is definitely going to be stomped by 2001, as well as 2011 getting stomped by 1994, 2002 being stomped by 1991, & 2007 being stomped by 1997. |
Interesting
how high people are going with 2001 predictions. If 1994 is even
remotely close to 2001, and assuming 2008 is near 2004's level, 2001
shouldn't, well, do THAT well.... but time will tell. "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." |
Only 28 perfects survived round 1. |

Welp, we're getting Full Throttled. Let's see how Chrono Trigger fares against like 70% of the NES's big games. Yoblazer http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... Only 28 perfects survived round 1. I wonder how many we would have if 2006 had won? 400? Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for 2017 Guru champion. |
Oh, and I love how Melee is matched up against Brawl here. Yoblazer http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |
so uh My initial gut reaction is 2008 > 1987 2001 is looking like a monster here |
Wow, looks like we wrecked the casuals yesterday also 46. charmander6000 - 19 It's been a while... Best Year in Gaming - Today's Winners: 1995 and 2001 Current Bracket Score: 19/20 (edited 5/11/2017 9:02:16 PM) |
Wow, 2015 was favored over 2005... and wow, 2001. "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." |
Wow, 2001 is a monster. Dilated Chemist DpObliVion is the one true king of Guru's. |
Come on 2008 wasn't that bad... Best Year in Gaming - Today's Winners: 1995 and 2001 Current Bracket Score: 19/20 |
Yeah, this isn't a good showing for 1995. Gonna go ahead and call 2001 the favorite now. |

1995 is in trouble. Dilated Chemist DpObliVion is the one true king of Guru's. |
Below 60%, this could get interesting Congrats DpObliVion for wrecking gurus From the place of your birth to the ends of the Earth~ |
So,
nobody better submit pics for Full Throttle or any of these other games
next round. He's got to use DKC2/Yoshi/Earthbound if they are the only
submission he gets right? Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for 2017 Guru champion. |
I'm happy 1995 gets a win at all. It has the worst picture in the bracket, by far. Yoblazer http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |
Sounds like we're getting eight pics per year in round three and on, so 1995 should be able to get everything it needs. |
2001 is going to godstomp 1995 <_< Sir Chris The Cult of Personality |
5 minute X-Stats: 1995 – 50.00% 1987 – 41.44% 1985 – 21.22% 1986 – 11.00% 2001 – 50.00% 2008 – 26.22% 2014 – 16.83% 2009 – 14.77% 1979 – 5.58% |
Holy
crap, 1987. I knew you could look respectable. 1995 fell an absolute
ridiculous amount. I can't even call for 1995 to win the match yet. "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." (edited 5/11/2017 9:08:09 PM) |
1987 is a much stronger year then 2008 though. |
Yeah, I should've stuck with my lower 95 prediction in Oracle. Dilated Chemist DpObliVion is the one true king of Guru's. |
This
performance from 1995 would suggest 1987 gets around 87% on 1986,
something that I don't see being possible. So I guess there might be
some kind of synergistic effect going on here with 1987's depth (despite
being terribly weak 1v1 vs. CT) against a year which has very little
depth beyond Chrono Trigger. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
Jesus christ what sort of image set is that for 1995? |
CaptainOfCrush posted... Oh, and I love how Melee is matched up against Brawl here. I'll definitely take Melee over Brawl. There's a reason why Melee is still being played in tournaments to this day & why Brawl isn't: Because Brawl failed to live up to the hype that Melee & Smash 4 did. |
Full
Throttle and co dropped quite a bit from the early board vote. It fell
from 66 to 58 in four minutes. Hope this stabilizes! And yes, 2001 is moonwalking into the semifinals regardless of what pictures 1995 gets. Yoblazer http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |
So, no Pokemon for 2000. Who's the favorite? Dilated Chemist DpObliVion is the one true king of Guru's. |

Hell 1995 may not win the match! Sir Chris The Cult of Personality |
SwiftyDC posted... So, no Pokemon for 2000. Who's the favorite? Probably 1996. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
1995 drops some more and 2001 looks a little more sane. |
Yup, we have ourselves a match. Dilated Chemist DpObliVion is the one true king of Guru's. |
Also because Melee is a legit top ten game of all time, right up there with Super Turbo. Juuuust sayin! Yoblazer http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |

Is that really that unplausible? There is no anchor or depth to 86 at all, so I could easily see just about any year with decent strength just clobber the f*** out of Bubble Bobble and whatever else.

For some reason I'm not on the leaderboard anymore. I'm a perfect score, but fsr disappeared from the list. |
f*** it, I want all the perfects to fall (or atleast most). Go 1987! Dilated Chemist DpObliVion is the one true king of Guru's. |
_SecretSquirrel posted... Is that really that unplausible? There is no anchor or depth to 86 at all, so I could easily see just about any year with decent strength just clobber the f*** out of Bubble Bobble and whatever else. I was thinking more like 84% for 1987 vs. 1986, which would put 1995 around 66% on 1987.

In
an actual match, I think 1987 blows out 86 more than any other year, 98
and 01 included. Why vote for 86 when 87 is simply a much better NES
year? I can see that match going into legendary percentages, like 93/7. Yoblazer http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |
SwiftyDC posted... So, no Pokemon for 2000. Who's the favorite? 2000 still. Not quite sure what Pokemon adds to a year that already has Zelda DpObliVion, my hat is off to you. Welcome to the Guru Champions Club lol xstats |
...Yeah, this could be bad. |
1987 is legit, pic sabotage can only go so far. Christopher Christopher Christopher Christopher Well done DpObliVion, what a champ! |
Okay so I know we all want to talk about the debated match now but. 2001 just went up <_< Sir Chris The Cult of Personality |
How about that depth, eh? Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |

Or even higher, considering generational SFF, however little it might be. "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun. So... what is a party?"

2001 > 1995 with 70% Dilated Chemist DpObliVion is the one true king of Guru's. |
