Oh man guys it's happening

NOMS ARE CLOSED


The highest nomination total I had noted down was 27667 nominations, which was maybe around 4 hours prior to that post. I don't know exactly when the nomination form was taken down, but there's no way that we could have surpassed 27700 nominations before they were closed.

I guess I'll likely put in a guess of 27680 as a rough estimate of our final nomination total.

No Vote-In poll today. If we don't get any Vote-In polls before the end of this week, then it's safe to say there won't be any.

We didn't get Vote-In polls for the previous Character Battle, but the size of that bracket meant that Vote-In polls weren't really needed at all.

Man, imagine if people rallied on a vote-in poll.

Actually... Has that ever happened before?

He's a special case, on account of being literally Hitler.
All your old meme are belong to me.
Okay I was thinking about it and going off of the extent of Metroid Prime's stat underperformance against Morrowind and where the x-stats for the last two games contests have Prime relative to Mario Galaxy, that leads to the conclusion that Fallout 3 overperformed against Brawl in GOTD by about 8%. And somehow I don't have that hard of a time believing that, considering stupid stuff tends to happen late in contests.

Seriously, I'm afraid of seeing Hitler in a future contest, but he getting rallied by actual neo-nazis.
I think SBAllen has seen enough to know better than to allow that at this point.
But if not, yeah, Hitler is a serious contender to win.

Why are you calling me out for providing this info when TRE has provided far more updates on the nomination total than I have? I provided only 3 updates on the nomination total where as TRE has provided at least 10 updates (or more). If you're going to call me out for providing nomination updates, you should do the same thing when TRE does it as well.

or better, don't call anyone out for discussing the contest. Heck the reason I enjoy these contests is the board and the discussion about results and numbers and that kinda stuff. The whole contest is 'meaningless' if you really think about it.

1. It wasnt meant to be serious sorry I offended you
2. You do have an uncanny ability to recount knowledge. Unfortunately its stuff like the weather for 4 years ago that is absolutely pointless.

How about this: if Bayonetta 2 is extremely well received and (by the grace of God) Bayonetta is actually given a guest spot in Smash, do you take her to beat Dante?


wow yoblazer called it two years in advance

Also random thought I mean I'm so pumped for a contest dont get me wrong.

But I'll be 10x as pumped when we do our next game of the decade contest as I'm sure like 75% of the matches will be so unpredictable

Edit - except the fact breath of the wild will win

Spoiler alert ?

I'd still take Dante over Bayonetta. There's DMC5 hype (even if the microtransactions softened it a bit), and remember how BrawlFEAR fell flat on its face? Lucario nearly lost to freaking Isaac.

yeah but Lucario was never TOP TIER in Smash

There goes bracket
Bayonetta did slightly better against Snake in 2013 than Isaac did and that was before Bayonetta 2 and Smash, so at least Lucario's probably her floor rather than her expected strength!

I think gamefaqs is too old and set in its ways to get her even close to Dante, though.

Let's say Llama from Fortnite makes the contest. How likely is it that it gets rallied, and how likely are Allen's anti-rally measures to work?

"not likely at all" as an answer to both

fortnite fans are little babies that don't know how to rally or even do long division

Yeah, Bayonetta would be stronger if her first game came out in... let's say 2005 versus 2010, but she's probably a victim of GameFAQs Modern Apathy. I think I'd take her over Kratos, but never over white haired Dante.
even after kratos had an academy award winning dad simulator game?

For most sites I'd say it doesn't matter but gamefaqs Is a site for 80/early 90s kids who are all close to 30 or over 30 so you may be onto something
