Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1271
I think 3 out of 4 quarterfinals + 1 semifinal will at least be decent 1996 by the hour: 1:00 | 51.72% 2:00 | 49.29% 3:00 | 49.16% 4:00 | 48.56% 5:00 | 47.89% 6:00 | 51.27% 7:00 | 48.09% 8:00 | 51.22% Joe Bulo says hi |

Ugh don't do this to me Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! |
1996 takes the lead with 10 votes. |
Time for bed Hopefully I'll wake up to a decent lead for 2000...! Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! |
This match is over. F*** allen Rest in Peace, foREVer. whatisurnameplz on his phone |
Keep my bracket perfect 96 baby Started from the bottom now we here |
Looks like 1996 is getting the day vote. Also looks like 1997 lost the night vote. It's definitely not just an FFVII proxy. |
There's that powerful Mario morning vote. But Zelda's afternoon vote has always been stronger, so this one isn't over yet. September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |
And of course night will be better for 2000 cuz psx actually had games that year Rest in Peace, foREVer. whatisurnameplz on his phone |

That's
by far the best hour either game has had so far today. Normally, such a
strong hour at this time of day would be decisive as it would indicate
that 1996 had a firm grip on the day vote. But this year, the variance
in percentages is dramatically higher than before, so a lot of that last
hour could be a fluctuation rather than a strong signal for the day
vote. September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! (edited 5/13/2017 6:12:20 AM)report |
it'll
be interesting to see if this goes past the morning or if it's typical
Mario. I think Majora did well in the afternoon hours vs. Super Metroid
too, but yeah, I've thought 96 was a slight fave ever since 00 struggled
to gain any separation overnight. add the c and back away iphonesience |
Great
match! I wish Pokemon GSC would have made it into 2000's picture --
once again, a pic snub could have made all the difference -- but 1996
was always going to take a significant portion of the Nintendo-vote.
SMRPG + SM64 (+ N64) is a concentrated force that's easy to fall in line
for if you like Mario, and nearly everybody's played several Mario
games. LoZ:MM (+ the reference of Pokemon GSC) are powerful and varied
which is great too, but I feel like the Mario games divided and are
currently conquering that Nintendo support. I also thought 2007 would be doing a lot better than this...oh well! Brought to you by GameFlux Free GameFAQs app on Google Play! |
North America is at 52% for 1996, for what it's worth. I suppose this match is a true toss-up for me at this point. September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |
GSC always gets shafted on this site. Congratulations to DpOblivion, the Guru champion for the 2013 Character Battle. |
there's no doubt that Pokemon and/or Diablo 2 would have made the difference here. add the c and back away iphonesience |
Here's a history of 1996's US percentage since 6:00 AM: 6:00 AM - 52.16% 6:30 AM - 52.15% 7:00 AM - 52.04% 7:30 AM - 51.95% 8:00 AM - 52.23% 8:30 AM - 52.53% 9:00 AM - 52.97% 9:30 AM - 52.96% This explains the morning vote favoring 1996 here.

transcience posted... there's no doubt that Pokemon and/or Diablo 2 would have made the difference here. diablo 2 for sure. |
Imagine if SBAllen switches Pokemon and Diablo 2 pics into the match and 2000 makes a furious comeback? MAKE IT HAPPEN ALLEN! Nice job DpObliVion for ranking 4 spots ahead of me and winning the BGE15 Guru Contest! |
So, is it safe to say that it's game over? 96 survive the night vote and it's now in the lead Congratulation to DpOblivion for winning Tumblr's BGE 3 guru contest (edited 5/13/2017 6:49:49 AM)report |
I think with less than a 100 vote lead and over 13 hours left, you can't say it's over at all DpOblivion won the Guru contest... and my heart. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6vAyJ5r_20 |

Polycosm posted... UltimaterializerX posted...What's the closest wire to wire record? Mario led Vivi at times, so this wouldn't be right.

With so low vote totals, anything is possible. Why do we exist? What happens when we stop existing? What is Life? |
This is f***ing sad. If this were a character or games match we'd have gone through at least two topics by now. Not_Wylvane (edited 5/13/2017 10:00:47 AM)report |
the boards are dead because everyone that posts on gamefaqs is treated like a 13 y/o you can't foster a healthy community when anything you say can be deleted for arbitrary reasons just look at reddit it's healthy because unless you're being toxic as f*** you aren't getting punished 2 line break(s), 160 characters allowed |
We went through about eight topics in 2005 on Kefka/Vercetti. Think about that. |
8 topics for a match? Seriously? Man the good old times... Why do we exist? What happens when we stop existing? What is Life? |

The discussions about it continued during the next match though. Also I think Vivi vs Mario was like 3 topics. (edited 5/13/2017 11:05:43 AM)report |
those were the days I am Nick. Go Sens, Bills, Blue Jays! I shall call no more! |
Lol this forum is not only nostalgic about video games but also about itself |
GranzonEx posted... the boards are dead because everyone that posts on gamefaqs is treated like a 13 y/o "But google hits" You are exactly right. This forum caters to the far left and rapidly lost its entire audience. Get the X out. Vinateri was using his god powers on the Pats and then was like "Wait I'm a Colt now lol" and now you have it. |
Man until recently we couldn't even curse! This site is too strict. I don't understand why. Why do we exist? What happens when we stop existing? What is Life? |
A lot of the audience has gotten older and/or had moved on to twitch, YouTube and Reddit Dallas Cowboys & Mavs http://giant.gfycat.com/BigheartedImpartialAlpaca.gif http://i.imgur.com/sSa3E3Z.jpg |

This site dying was already discussed a lot of times You really don't have to go far in your thinking to make sense of why the site is dying, you can just take yourself as an example and you will understand it You need to ask yourself, when was the last time YOU used a FAQ in this site? honestly I can't answer this question because I don't remember I only use wikis for information now, and see a gameplay video if I get really stuck The only reason to come to GameFAQs is a message board for every game in existence and as much as I am aware this is the only website in the Internet to have something like that Sadly it's not good enough because Allen never bothers to fix it, he can start it off by the obvious "combining message boards of different consoles to one board" to avoid stuff like this https://www.gamefaqs.com/search?game=%22mighty+no+9%22 And stuff like this- https://www.gamefaqs.com/search?game=Fire+Emblem+awakening (And yes I am aware you can exclude DLC) 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |

They
were too scared of the site getting bad publicity.I think that's the
reason why it's so strict.Could do with some sort of publicity at this
point though. |
Btw ulti just for information am I on your ignore list? |
