ok transience Communists |
Well
this round just killed me. Lost everyone except Vivi. You’d think the
Dragonborn would do better considering Skyrim’s been the most popular
game here since it came out... -J2K (edited 10/20/2018 9:04:53 AM)report |
FlyingForever posted... Mr Lasastryke posted...so lol x-stats, basically I don't follow the NBA that closely, but picking the Warriors to win in 2020 is a pretty solid pick, isn't it? >_> This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
FlyingForever posted... Mr Lasastryke posted...so lol x-stats, basically The difference is that in sports, you have actual data from the last five years that is more accurate. You can look at footage from the same players from last week |
HaRRicH posted... Also, if we're going off the idea of DK being deceptively stronger in 2013, does that have any bearing to you regarding Charizard >= Zelda > DK in 2013? As in, do you think the Charizard/Zelda part would have gone differently without DK in the context of this new understanding we're building around DK? I always felt Zelda would have won had Donkey Kong not been in the match. CBX - Today's Winners: Vivi, Aya Brea, Tidus, Leon Kennedy Score: 4/4 |
Team Rocket Elite posted... FlyingForever posted...Mr Lasastryke posted...show hidden quote(s)so lol x-stats, basically Sure which is like picking link to win. Safe and smart pick. Trying to predict who gets the 7th seed in the west or something? Last years data is absolutely useless lol -~get rich or drunk trying ~- |
Also sports have a lot more variance than character popularity polls. |
I still feel like Leon should beat DK, I just panicked when I realized Leon got 62% on Tidus with Vivi in the poll and thought that meant Leon would have gotten 57% straight-up. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
FlyingForever posted... Mr Lasastryke posted...so lol x-stats, basically Not sure if joking. Sports teams' rosters change constantly. Forget between seasons. Even within seasons, making a few roster changes can give a team a significant boost, or unexpected injuries can cause a downturn. That's why it's so impressive for teams to win back-to-back championships, or even go on a run of making the playoffs for many consecutive years. Character Battle X Current Score: 4/4 How do Yu prove that Yu exist? |
Team Rocket Elite posted... FlyingForever posted...Mr Lasastryke posted...show hidden quote(s)so lol x-stats, basically Two years is a long time for either Durant or Curry to get injured. Character Battle X Current Score: 4/4 How do Yu prove that Yu exist? |

This might sound crazy, but what if Tidus is actually somehow weaker than Lightning now |
Lightning's
being overrated here. She's not strong, she's just recognizable against
a character from a type of game that has little clout on GameFAQs. If a
Life Is Strange kinda character doesn't catch outside support, they'll
be worthless on this site. I remember how much hype The Walking Dead
games had, especially for Clementine, and then she got doubled by Spyro
(who was probably weaker at the time than what we saw yesterday). https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5163-character-battle-ix-division-3-round-1-spyro-vs-clementine Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
I almost have a perfect Oracle pick for Vivi. Dilated Chemist |
FlyingForever posted... Mr Lasastryke posted...so lol x-stats, basically Works for the Patriots... lol Congratulation to DpOblivion for winning Tumblr's BGE 3 guru contest |
Tidus > Captain Falcon Captain Falcon > DK DK > Tidus These contests are kinda wonky at times, and I'm not saying the above would absolutely happen, but it could happen. Dilated Chemist |
Mac Arrowny posted... KamikazePotato posted... Spring Breeze Dancin doesn't count as an actual character and you know it! (Zidane and Ridley are stronger than Lightning anyway) Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Falcon
is more popular among the Smash community, but I think taking him over
DK on GameFAQs is a dubious proposition. That would be quite a reversal
of the SFF hierarchy, but then again, I have Kirby>Zard/Bowser this
year, so I feel like I don't have too much ground to stand on. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
foxhead84 posted... FlyingForever posted...Mr Lasastryke posted...show hidden quote(s)so lol x-stats, basically Not for long. Old man tom couldn't even beat a back up QB The hands of god, decrepit and thin, Cold caress and then nothing (edited 10/20/2018 10:57:45 AM)report |
Man, just realized we've got three debated matches on tap tonight. How often has that happened before? Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
Wreath posted... foxhead84 posted...FlyingForever posted...show hidden quote(s)Mr Lasastryke posted...so lol x-stats, basically Have you watch them for the past 3 weeks. 38, 38 and 43 pts is pretty good for an old man Congratulation to DpOblivion for winning Tumblr's BGE 3 guru contest |
So... Knuckles vs. Donkey Kong, who ya got? Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. |

I think DK makes easy work of that one at this rate. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
swordz9 posted... This might sound crazy, but what if Tidus is actually somehow weaker than Lightning now He is. Lightning is the 3rd strongest FF female right now, maybe 2nd(behind Tifa only). 1) Tifa 2) Aerith/3)Lightning(debateable) 4) Yuna 5) Terra I'd pick Lightning to beat Yuna also. Lightning vs Aerith I think would be close. Raytan wins! (edited 10/20/2018 11:36:52 AM)report |
CaptainOfCrush posted... Man, just realized we've got three debated matches on tap tonight. How often has that happened before? Well, we’ve only had one other contest with this format, but Games 2015 gave us a day in Round 2 with Mario 3 vs Pokémon RBY Uncharted 2 vs Sonic 2 Fallout 3 vs Undertale Mario World vs FF8 That was quite the day in terms of debated matches with far reaching consequences.

foxhead84 posted... Wreath posted...foxhead84 posted...show hidden quote(s)FlyingForever posted...Mr Lasastryke posted...so lol x-stats, basically It's not always indicative of final results. They got gordan so even with him getting like 5 targets a game defenses have to acknowledge him and it opens up the run game for Michael. If NE and KS meet in the playoffs I'll take KS. That was probably the best game of the season so far though. Gronk probably wont remain healthy.. Also they got slapped around by blake Bortles and company The hands of god, decrepit and thin, Cold caress and then nothing |
Advokaiser posted... So... DK in a close match, like DK with 52% Raytan wins! |
Yuna vs DK, right now, who you got? Raytan wins! |
I am so nervous right now about Monika, I haven't been this nervous about a contest day in a long time. If you went all in on Monika/DDLC... today is THE day. Raytan wins! |
SuperNiceDog posted... Yuna vs DK, right now, who you got? DK obviously. Yuna can't be THAT much stronger than Tidus right? "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
SuperNiceDog posted... I am so nervous right now about Monika, I haven't been this nervous about a contest day in a long time. is there some rally im unaware of? i dont know who she is so i based my pick on what i read.

im317 posted... SuperNiceDog posted...I am so nervous right now about Monika, I haven't been this nervous about a contest day in a long time. The Doki Doki Literature fan club reddit made a post about this contest Started from the bottom now we here |
im317 posted... SuperNiceDog posted...I am so nervous right now about Monika, I haven't been this nervous about a contest day in a long time. The mod pinned a link to the contest on the Reddit like a week ago. They took it down, but assume they'll do it again. Now the Reddit is small, so I'm banking on Monika losing to Zero. But it could spread to other communities, in whic case... save_us_link. |

Lol, this is a classic "Ulti, you dog" moment. I'm pretty stoked for the meme magic tonight, Monika vs. Wario has a lot of potential there. Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |

Also you are lying to them when you say rallying is "encouraged". Not only it isn't but it's guaranteed to turn both this place and that subreddit into s*** for the duration of the contest. There's a reason LoL and Undertale are the two subreddits that don't allow rallies. |
@UltimaterializerX Stop back-stabbing the very community that raised you. Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. |
Ulti
right now is literally Monika. Making a bunch of innocent kids think
everything is nice and pink before the real war begins. |
Anyone who thought there wasn't going to be a contest-deciding rally is an idiot. n2k |
I
still don't think anything's going to happen Ulti's more excited for
the possibility of a rally than that entire subreddit combined. My Quest to beat the Final Fantasies: I II III IV V VI VII VIII IX X XII XIII XV |

Every winner of this round makes sense to me, expect Aya Brea. I have never heard of Parasite Eve, and I thought I knew all the underrated gems that this website loves. Sully meanwhile is one of the most beloved sidekicks in one of the most popular franchises on Playstation. How the heck did Sully lose? Proud leader of the ''I actually like Jack Swagger'' club!

wow you guys are mean Posted using GameFlux |
Uncharted
isnt that popular on GameFAQs. Drake himself isn't much stronger than
Pac-Man and hes the face of the series. A side character like Sully was
bound to be much weaker and probably loses to any attractive female RPG
protagonist. Not a knock against the character or the series, but his
fans should honestly be happier it isnt a worse beating than this. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
