It was one of the most hypes sequels in 2014 and 2015 and the most hyped sequel of 2018 (SSBU was not on the poll). https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5386-which-upcoming-sequel-are-you-most-looking-forward-to https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5752-which-upcoming-sequel-are-you-most-looking-forward-to https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6963-which-of-this-years-big-name-sequels-are-you-most-looking This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
And now we've gotten our first poll related to the contest: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/7234- I assume there will be another poll later this week on the day of October 19th, though it should only be a 20 hour poll (ending at 8:00 PM EST) Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BK_Sheikah00, Guru Champ! |
I guess there's probably no age poll this year. [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO BKSheikah NO PEACE] |
there's still a few days before the contest starts to squeeze one in |
These poll responses are not very encouraging. Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. |
guffguy89 posted... These poll responses are not very encouraging. Eh, this is pretty much how they all go if you look at previous results, even going all the way back to 2003. |
this is the most important time for the contest, the bracket-predicting period. What else is there to debate? Mario/Seph I think is a big one. I have Mario but I am not confident in it at all. Raytan wins! |
If Mario can't beat Sephiroth this year, he literally never will. This will probably be the weakest Sephiroth ever. |
Squall > Zelda. Part of the plan. Book it. KB |
Sephiroth
beating Mario?? I think there is a better chance of Ryu beating
Sephiroth than Seph beating Mario (remember registered users votes count
double). everything FFVII seems to have weakened a lot but especially
Sephiroth, I have no confidence in him at all. ... |
watch out for Luigi > Sephiroth imhotbqh |
Falcon > Sephiroth , you heard it first here ! |
better call the liquid snake removal service just in case [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO BKSheikah NO PEACE] |

I read that as "im hot tbqh" ISFJ Big on Visual Novels, Anime, Video games. Twitter: superange128 Planned 2018 Fighting Game Mains: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DgH4MCHVMAAKV9l.png |

it's true however you read it |
Playrate poll for the original Devil May Cry: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/7235- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BK_Sheikah00, Guru Champ! |
The
"No, I've never played a single game in the series" option had 48% and
change at the freeze. And I think Dante typically has a terrible board
vote and poor power hour? Probably means in part that he's bad among
registered users. Barely matters though. He wasn't beating Ganondorf regardless. [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO BKSheikah NO PEACE] |
I mean this poll doesn't really mean anything for Dante's strength anyway |
most of Dante's strength comes from Shin Megami Tensei: Lucifer's Call anyway For your BK_Sheikah00. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
MoogleKupo141 posted... most of Dante's strength comes from Shin Megami Tensei: Lucifer's Call anyway I really want to figure out a way to sneak the Featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry Series emblem into a match pic, but I'm concerned we don't get freefrom until after Dante's gone.

it's truly tragic that Allen didn't set up a Knuckles vs Dante match For your BK_Sheikah00. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
AxemRedRanger posted... The "No, I've never played a single game in the series" option had 48% and change at the freeze. And I think Dante typically has a terrible board vote and poor power hour? Probably means in part that he's bad among registered users. The option "No, I've never played a single game in the series" was over 55% for the first 2 minutes of the poll, before dropping down to about 48% at the freeze. And then that option dropped another 6% by the end of the Power Hour. Generally, this means Dante and his games won't have a good board vote/Power Hour. We've seen this with FFVII related polls where the playrate will suck badly during the board vote/Power Hour as well.

MoogleKupo141 posted... most of Dante's strength comes from Shin Megami Tensei: Lucifer's Call anyway MoogleKupo Allen is still hella fat right? Raytan wins! |
why are you still trying to bring this up again |
I think he is of a healthy weight now For your BK_Sheikah00. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
I just want to confirm: I am able to make 1 Prize Entry and 1 Fun Entry (separate accounts) and not be disqualified. Dilated Chemist |
MoogleKupo141 posted... I think he is of a healthy weight now hahaha awww ok. Raytan wins! |

LeonhartFour posted... SwiftyDC posted...I just want to confirm: I am able to make 1 Prize Entry and 1 Fun Entry (separate accounts) and not be disqualified. I just made 1 for pokefear and one for prize money with non pokefear. I expect to not break the top 100 The hands of god, decrepit and thin, Cold caress and then nothing |
I think I'll make an extra Fun Entry just to bank on rallies. |
probably shouldn't let this purge so close to 500 |
So
I've got a top 8 consisting entirely of the Noble Nine, with no NN
breaks anywhere in the bracket… There's no way that's happening in this
day and age, right? I just don't see any particular upsets that look
sexy enough to pull the trigger on. If all else fails use fire. |

I just don't see any particular upsets that look sexy enough to pull the trigger on. I've got the same. Playing the percentages really. I'm sure there's room for one upset Started from the bottom now we here |
haloiscoolisbak posted... I've got the same. Playing the percentages really. I'm sure there's room for one upset Yeah, I guess it's the safe thing to do. I figure if anyone goes down it'll probably be a Square character if they perform as badly as they did in 2013. If all else fails use fire. |

I just don't see any particular upsets that look sexy enough to pull the trigger on. The big thing here is to pay attention to point values. This contest is weighed heavily on the Legends bracket, so it may behoove you to play it safe with those heavy points at stake. Meanwhile, the second chance bracket is consistently 8 points for all matches, so here you can afford to play around with some upsets, particularly on rematches. Agent Triple Zero at your service!

Over the past few weeks, we've gotten these new playrate results: Mario 1 - 92.89% on 9/13/2018 Mario 64 - 88.07% on 9/29/2018 Fallout 1 - 27.57% on 9/30/2018 Devil May Cry 1 - 51.52% on 10/16/2018 Only the Fallout and DMC results are completely new. Both Mario results were very close to previous re-runs of the same poll. These new playrate results have been added to the following page: https://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Have_You_Played Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BK_Sheikah00, Guru Champ! |

I just don't see any particular upsets that look sexy enough to pull the trigger on. Yeah. TBH I don't know which upset id even feel confident taking though. For starters I'm not even certain of so many of my division winners Started from the bottom now we here |
So it's 4 matches a day for the first two round. Then 2 a day for round 3 & 4. Then one at a time till the end??? Congratulation to DpOblivion for winning Tumblr's BGE 3 guru contest |

I think maybe the first round of winners/losers is two per day. |
