Man, that would suck if we have these s***ty portrait pics for the whole contest. Dilated Chemist |
ctesjbuvf posted... Someone please remind me how it has been with user made pics the past few contests Well, with the Games Contest (which is the first time we had 4 matches per day), SBAllen used the same stock box art for the first two rounds before opening it up to user-made pics. hopefully the precedent is the same here because Big Boss is in trouble if Allen just decides to use the same pics the whole way through |
_SecretSquirrel posted... LeonhartFour posted...well like I said Big Boss has a built in excuse with his picture here so you can rationalize away this bad showing a little bit If this is true then I would hate Allen. Like nearly every user submitted pics would be only the top 8 characters against each other. |
Right. Yeah, I hope so too. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to BKSheikah, the winner of the Best Year in Gaming contest. |
like I honestly wouldn't mind if Allen wanted to use the same pic the entire way through just for the sake of consistency just make sure they're quality pics first |
I have no idea who Neptune is, but I have to imagine Ryo mops the floor with her. This is looking really good for Sora > Red BKSheikah, my hat is off to you. Welcome to the Guru Champions Club lol xstats |
I have a feeling we're going to use these same pics as long as it's four matches per day. For your BK_Sheikah00. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
LeonhartFour posted... ctesjbuvf posted...Someone please remind me how it has been with user made pics the past few contests Here's the real question. When do we go to two matches per day again? Because that's the real rhyme and reason as to why we went to user submitted pics in 2015. The multiple match fomart requires simpler, individual pictures. Agent Triple Zero at your service!

Ganondorf
vs Vivi and Zero vs Pikachu is the first time we go down to 2 matches a
day. Link vs Cloud and Snake vs Mario should be the last time we get 2
matches a day. This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
yeah we're four matches per day until the division finals |
i think allen is doing this to remove the element of unpredictability from user-submitted match pics i mean you saw the backlash from vincent it's probably just a headache for him overall although it would have been really nice of him to just announce he was using the bio pics, would have helped us make decisions easier Curator of the Character Battle X Archive https://bit.ly/2RFxBzp |
so what you're saying is that this is all paulg's fault and indirectly yours |
I love that crash is winning here. Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. |
LeonhartFour posted... so what you're saying is that this is all paulg's fault Please, he could have just asked for a better Vincent picture. He had no problem asking for Fallout 1 and Age of Empire pics to put 1997 at a disadvantage. Agent Triple Zero at your service!

Mega Man > Cloud, Red, and Mario. I weep for your loser bracket. No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Lopen posted... Mega Man > Cloud, Red, and Mario. I weep for your loser bracket. He does have Zelda in there so that Zelda > Squall upset could be a great upset. Mewtwo > Tifa and X as well. The hands of god, decrepit and thin, Cold caress and then nothing |
Even
I don't think Mega Man has a chance at Mario. I took the Cloud upset
because of the last contest, and the fact I thought FF would be weaker
across the board this year. BKSheikah, my hat is off to you. Welcome to the Guru Champions Club lol xstats |
_SecretSquirrel posted... LeonhartFour posted...so what you're saying is that this is all paulg's fault oh I know I'm just being facetious |
also Ridley's votes per update are all over the place almost like he's getting some sort of legitimate rally |
Crash winning is the only debateable match I got right (and Aya, but that was a tossup) And hot damn Ridley, want to tell me Smash Boost isn't real? 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
What if all the Smash characters ARE getting rallied? King K.Rool > Shepherd Yay - BkSheikah is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
cyko posted... What if all the Smash characters ARE getting rallied? it wouldn't surprise me Nintendo characters get rallied all the time and by people who think we need rallies to change the status quo no less |
ninkendo posted... Nanis23 10/22/2018 1:53:30 PM#481 You really are the ace of games 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Numbers for comparison: If Sora = Red, Ryo beats Neptune with 59.82% If Crash = Ridley, Big Boss beats Cecil with 59.82% Odd coincidence, that. |
Hold on Leon I thought if you got rallied you just got high updates every time though No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Lopen posted... Hold on Leon I thought if you got rallied you just got high updates every time though only if you're really good like Draven Ridley's TOO BIG for constant big updates somehow |
only conclusion Im drawing from this contest so far is Final Fantasy sucks ass Communists |
I'll be bummed if we can't do match pics :'( Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
LeonhartFour posted... If Sora = Red, Ryo beats Neptune with 59.82% I think Ryo actually does better than this against Neptune. She should be one of the absolute weakest in the bracket...I think? Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Also MGS5 deboosted Big Boss Not even joking, that game created reasons why he would and it was something I thought would happen pre-contest Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KamikazePotato posted... Also MGS5 deboosted Big Boss Kiefer Sutherland, his impacT Communists |
This
is easily the worst match for FF yet. Crash is about as untied to
Nintendo as a character can get, and most of us would have figured that
Old Square would hold up better than their new crew. Now we have
completely non-Nintendo high fodder easily taking out one of the few Old
Square characters in the bracket. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
Allen
doing the pics like this is the laziest thing I've ever seen.
Completely unacceptable when you've got an entire board full of
dedicated picmakers. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
This
has been kinda bugging me but wouldn't it be more lazy to outsource the
work to users instead of making the images himself? >_> This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
In
a way perhaps, but people would’ve made much better match pics than
what he gathered for R1. Most look like the first thing you’d see on
Google images |

Crash is about as untied to Nintendo as a character can get, and most of us would have figured that Old Square would hold up better than their new crew. Now we have completely non-Nintendo high fodder easily taking out one of the few Old Square characters in the bracket. I'm inclined to agree with you here. While I had faith in Crash, thanks to nostalgia and the N-Sane Trilogy being such a success, this match really demonstrates how nothing Square is safe. I really hope the Chrono Trigger characters are spared from the deboost, but I'm not terribly optimistic. Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
Side
note - each Final Fantasy embarrassment further backs the possibility
that Chloe might actually be the weakest character in the bracket. I
would unironically take Neptune over her. Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
Don’t worry Chrono stuff will always keep the casual DBZ art boost. I’d vote for red haired Trunks and wizard Piccolo (edited 10/22/2018 8:12:43 PM) |

Now we have completely non-Nintendo high fodder easily taking out one of the few Old Square characters in the bracket. Eh, Cecil has never been good though. There's a reason he's never won a match before. People remember that 48% against Knuckles and forget every other performance that wasn't very good. Like let's wait until we get to some of the actual big names of FF. |
good thing I switched to Zelda > Squall at the last second Communists |

Crash got the Switch Boost, he may not be Nintendo but i think part of the boost still applies.

also the only Old Square things that matter are FFVI and CT if Kefka completely flops against L-Block tomorrow (barring an L-Block rally, I guess), then I think you can start being a little concerned, even if Kefka hasn't been the most reliable thing in the world |
TheKoolAidShoto posted... good thing I switched to Zelda > Squall at the last second With apologies to Leon, this is one of the bracket changes I'm pining for the most. Right behind picking Luigi over Seph in the loser's bracket. Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
TheCodeisBosco posted... TheKoolAidShoto posted...good thing I switched to Zelda > Squall at the last second funny enough leon convinced me of Zelda > Squall perhaps unintentionally, perhaps hedging bets on his fave character but..! Communists |
hey it's fine people didn't think he'd beat Missingno in the midst of Pokemania either...! (edited 10/22/2018 8:19:02 PM) |
swordz9 posted... In a way perhaps, but people would’ve made much better match pics than what he gathered for R1. Most look like the first thing you’d see on Google images To be fair, the same could be said for the first two rounds of CBIX, except we were providing the renders instead of Allen GISing them. Although I got to feel like us giving Allen renders again would have at least spared us from the lowest of the low in the rotation right now, especially since so many of them have awful artifacting around them.

also I DO have Luigi > Sephiroth in losers and I'm glad I didn't chicken out of it |
Man
I really don’t want to see a world where Squall loses to Zelda of all
characters, but I guess in fairness I haven’t played an LoZ with a Zelda
I actually cared about |
