Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1271
*Just shows up* ...Huh. Looks like I missed some fun. I saw the results and thought "whoa how is 2000 in a close match?" Thought it would have a fairly stress-free time here. xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |

Whoa whoa whoa... we got a real match here! Thanks, DpObliVion, for casting my 2015 contest guru bracket into the pits of oblivion. (thengamer.com/guru) |
1996 fighting back, another lead change, this could be awhile Blop |
And '96 takes the lead! Oh lawd. Smash Wii U username: McTavish Congrats to DPOblivion, 2015 guru champ |
xp1337 posted... *Just shows up* Why are people shocked that a SM64 lead year is putting up a fight Started from the bottom now we here |
96 takes a one vote lead! Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for 2017 Guru champion. |
I
am more surprised that 00 is keeping it this close with being this
disadvantaged with it's match pic, in a fair representation it is the
stronger year by the looks of it, whether it can still win with such a
disadvantage is another question, looks to be a good and conversational
match Blop |

Because of the LAW. I didn't say I thought 2000 would crush this, I just didn't think the match would ever really be in question. You can have a fairly close match without having much doubt in the eventual winner! xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
xp1337 posted... haloiscoolisbak posted... What law? Mario 64 would crush majora in a 1v1. Pokemon gold /silver is in the same year so this performance is a bit pathetic from 2000. 96 was a pretty garbage year tbh bat mario 64. (edited 5/13/2017 2:17:16 AM)report |

https://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/6470-what-is-your-all-time-favorite-nintendo-64-game can't even crush it with OoT in the poll all hail link Also kind of doubt a game that puts up 47-48% on LttP 1v1 gets crushed by much of anything short of OoT tbqh! xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?

Lets go 96! 23/24 pts - The GameFAQs Best Year In Gaming Contest |
Probably rooting for 96 here Such a lust for revenge |
I
was really hoping that 2000 would have built up at least a little bit
of a lead by now, but the East Coast should be waking up soon which'll
probably put a nail in 2000's coffin. Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! |
With
this being a weekend match, the morning vote starts a little bit later
than usual compared to a weekday match. I'm not expecting the morning
vote until about 7:30 AM EST. Based on current Geolocation results, it looks bad for 2000 since 1996 has about 52% in the US. 2000 would expect to get buried when the morning vote kicks in, unless of course the US morning vote starts trending towards 2000 instead.

xp1337 posted... Yuri_LowelI posted... I think SM64 would beat MM in a 1v1 now. MM's strength now compared to 2009 is crazy. But judging from todays poll SM64 would comfortably handle . Also OoT being in any poll distorts everything tbh. It's an absolute Monster of a game that just saps the crap out of everything Nintendo. It's got to a point where non Nintendo games of mediocre stature are going to do a higher % on OoT than strong tier Nintendo games. (edited 5/13/2017 2:49:53 AM)report |
oh man I have no idea what to expect from trends. SMRPG is an early monster, FF9 and RE are night beasts and Mario/Zelda are day vote gods. add the c and back away iphonesience |
come on zelda morning vote Joe Bulo says hi |

The votals must be very sad for 2000's percentage to rise when it gained 1. |
i like when the match is 1 vote apart and still showing 50.01% Remember, we are eternal - all this pain is an illusion User of the Year 2016, UotY16 Fantasy Champion |

Devastating 2 votes gain. 2000 has done it ! |
Averia posted... Devastating 2 votes gain. The 6:00 update on the updater is a fake update. The real update is actually the 6:01 update, so that would be an 8 vote gain. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
LusterSoldier posted... Averia posted...Devastating 2 votes gain. Wait, I thought the real updates were those in xx:00 and xx:05 . How do you identify real updates then ? |
'96 reeling that sucker back in |
Averia posted... Wait, I thought the real updates were those in xx:00 and xx:05 . How do you identify real updates then ? Generally, you can tell the fake updates apart by looking at their total votes compared to the previous update. The 5:55 update had 4906 votes, while the 6:00 update had 4915 votes. There's no way that we would only receive 9 votes over the course of a normal 5 minute update unless it was caused by GameFAQs downtime.

an epic 15 vote gain! this is like the babiest version of CT/LTTP ever add the c and back away iphonesience |
Man
a 100 vote rally can decide a match! Remember the good old days when
100 votes were nothing? Still I like this site and I am sure it does
well, just people don't care about polls. Why do we exist? What happens when we stop existing? What is Life? |
Btw, this is still a very unlikely possibility, but has there ever been a perfect draw at the end ? What happens in that case, random winner ? |

I hope that update isn't an early sign of the morning vote kicking in (which happens around 7:30 AM EST on the weekend). Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
It
feels good to have a close match for once. Really wish 2000 had gsc in
the match pic though. I hate how Allen snubbed it along with KHII for 06 Rest in Peace, foREVer. whatisurnameplz on his phone |
RIPJimmy posted... It feels good to have a close match for once. Really wish 2000 had gsc in the match pic though. I hate how Allen snubbed it along with KHII for 06 I think we should do away with tthese pictures and just have a list of games in writing. Top 10 games for each year listed vertically vs the other. That way it will be a fair fight. Boring yes but that should have been done for the First round. After that you can start doing pictures I also think Box arts for games should be put in as well Have 4 box arts for each year. pick the strongest ones for each year. |
Yea I like that idea Also 2000 just negated those past few 96 updates Rest in Peace, foREVer. whatisurnameplz on his phone |
For those leaderboard watching, I've got 2000 winning this one. Not_Wylvane |
This
is probably going to be the best round of matches in the contest to be
honest. I can't see another decent match past that except the inevitable
2001 vs 1997 match.. Everything in the bottom is going to be a 98
blowout. I want a mini Console contest. |
What is the record for smallest biggest lead in a match. Congratulation to DpOblivion for winning Tumblr's BGE 3 guru contest |
foxhead84 posted... What is the record for smallest biggest lead in a match. SotC > MGS2 in 2010 had a biggest lead of 188. Congratulations to DpOblivion, the Guru champion for the 2013 Character Battle. |
