GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1291
I could just see Geralt having a bad board vote That said Bayonetta is a monster and is probably winning this 8-pack Warning: I'm literally VeryInsane. |
I
thought this could be the first day that even a seasoned Board 8er
could go 0/4, so no surprise that some of us are taking a hit. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

Nobody is hyped about KH3 for Riku |
I
definitely think Rosa's strength was underestimated. Probably due to
being newer and her 16 seed. I'd take her over Waluigi and (Captain)
Toad. Maybe over Wario too depending on how he does against Master Hand My Quest to beat the Final Fantasies: I II III IV V VI VII VIII IX X XII XIII XV |
im317 posted... then explain Simon? Simon could just be a case of Hayabusa getting weaker. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BK_Sheikah00, Guru Champ! |
Have you not remembered how KH has been a rallying point of antivoting since 2004 in an effort to shun Square Enix? >unironically playing video games |
Rosa's beginning to stall Gerry again. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2018 Guru Contest winner. http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=40 |

Simon's probably the biggest counter-example, but I also think Leon serves as one. Even if we're hesitant to give Dragonborn any credit, Leon looked too good and I have to assume RE2 Remake hype is responsible for a bit of that. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
Division 5, Round 1 Aloy vs. D.Va Registered Vote Result: Aloy - 4179 (44.53%) D.Va - 5205 (55.47%) Anonymous Vote Result: Aloy - 5205 (51.79%) D.Va - 4846 (48.21%) Jill Valentine vs. Fox McCloud Registered Vote Result: Jill Valentine - 4301 (45.81%) Fox McCloud - 5087 (54.19%) Anonymous Vote Result: Jill Valentine - 4630 (46.07%) Fox McCloud - 5420 (53.93%) Shovel Knight vs. Captain Toad Registered Vote Result: Shovel Knight - 4472 (47.64%) Captain Toad - 4916 (52.36%) Anonymous Vote Result: Shovel Knight - 4728 (47.04%) Captain Toad - 5322 (52.96%) Waluigi vs. Aerith Gainsborough Registered Vote Result: Waluigi - 4069 (43.35%) Aerith Gainsborough - 5318 (56.65%) Anonymous Vote Result: Waluigi - 4133 (41.12%) Aerith Gainsborough - 5917 (58.88%) Aloy/D.Va has set a new record for the largest non-rally voting split. D.Va finishing with about a 7 point advantage with registered users is highly unusual because it's a non-Nintendo character pulling this off. We'll see what happens next round when D.Va faces a Nintendo character. Fox barely does better among registered users. This is our closest match to being nearly even among registered users and anonymous users. Waluigi does do better among registered users, but it's not an extreme split like what might be expected if we had Cloud or Sephiroth in Aerith's place. Guess this shows FFVII's female characters are much better at avoiding anti-votes than the male characters.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a ton of bracket-voting in that match. Both characters were relative unknowns on this site. (edited 10/28/2018 5:57:06 PM)report |

Wow. These, uh, these anti-votes are something. I mainly took the upset because I figured Pac-Man's always been weak against anything with any sort of fanbase and relies on the weakness of his opponent to get wins. And, er, then another Sans win because KH gets s*** on so much that I didn't even expect Riku to be there...and then another because honestly, I'd take any of the Sans/Pac-Man/Bayonetta/Riku quartet over any of the Rosalina/Ryu/Simon trio (no I'm not even going to dignify the other member with anything more than a "LOL there was a year between 2014 and 2016?" And yeah, I know Undertale was also released in The Year That Must Not Be Named but I'm still just so mad at how aggressively vomit-inducing radio was that year and literally 80% of good songs that received significant radio play that year were 2014 holdovers, but even that can't be enjoyed as a whole because of Uptown f***, no that's not a typo, seriously f*** that year so hard)...and then Sans is in Round 4 and the bandwagon is rolling. I'm so screwed. I should've just taken Rosalina > Sans in Round 3. f***, I probably would've avoided this if I didn't have so little faith in anything Square that I took Bayonetta > Riku. s***, Bayonetta > Riku is probably happening but it's going to cost me more points than if I'd called it wrong, because I feel like I'd have called KH to stop Sans before he could get rolling. "Someday I'll catch up, and then you'll all be surprised!" BKSheikah has the power. He is the one. |
Wow so many people had Shovel Knight over Captain Toad |
Wow dat gain for Simon, Simon starting to really pull away on the last two updates |
Geralt inching closer to a respectable score. |
Behemoth_Knight posted... Wow so many people had Shovel Knight over Captain Toad and if it had been Captain Toad maybe the result would have been different "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion"Always remember "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |
Probably not tho If I only consulted the Gossip Stones like BKSheikah, instead of listening to Tingle, maybe I could have been the 2017 Guru Champ! |
Behemoth_Knight posted... Wow so many people had Shovel Knight over Captain Toad I mean it’s literally Toad who almost nobody cares about. Sure Shovel Knight is indie, but lol Toad |
im317 posted... Behemoth_Knight posted...Wow so many people had Shovel Knight over Captain Toad Still not getting this complaint. He's still a Toad. Character Battle X Current Score: 36/40 Mission ... comprete! |
Meanwhile Bayonetta still turning Riku into a man. Poor kid can't handle this! Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
wow, big Rosalina cut The Albion Hero Playing: Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4), Da Capo III (PC) |
Ryu Hatabusa: -Was never anything at all special in the old 1-on-1s. -His big win over Riku and Roxas in 2007 is not impressive in light of how Riku has only looked worse and worse since. -Beating Zero in 2008 stunned people but Pit and Dedede probably leached Zero and as Zero almost lost to Vivi that year I'd say 2008 Zero was pretty bad anyways. -Hayabusa's 2010 victory over Master Chief isn't impressive in retrospect either. We blamed him getting killed against Mega Man in the following round on the sprite but it's reasonably in line with his previous 1-on-1 performances. -Hayabusa sort of held up in 2013 but Kefka and Zack probably leeched each other. Fraud? I'm thinking fraud. - [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO BKSheikah NO PEACE] |
very interested in the registered voter split for Sans/Pac-Man "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion"Always remember "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |

The Owner of FF9 posted... im317 posted...Behemoth_Knight posted...show hidden quote(s)Wow so many people had Shovel Knight over Captain Toad Would you take Dr. Mario to be as strong as Mario? CBX - Today's Winners: Geralt, Simon Belmont, Pac-Man, Bayonetta Score: 32/40 |
I'm
surprised people would take Simon over Rosalina. Galaxy isn't the
biggest thing on GameFAQs, but I'd certainly take it over Castlevania 1
or 4. And that's pretty much the main argument people have against
Rosalina, that Galaxy isn't that big. She's certainly a well-liked
character by SMG players. Plus her presence outside her main source
games (Mario Kart, Smash 4) is greater than Simon's. Feeling good about Geralt winning two matches now. Also yay, I'm on the leaderboard. Probably gonna get 3/4 today, which... might let me stay on? Gonna miss Riku/Bayonetta but as a fan of hers I'll take that one.

Just like how X is nearly as strong as Mega Man. I wouldn't deny a slight advantage for a regular Toad, or a slight decrease if "Captain Toad" were properly displayed, but come on.

Welp highest I've ever been on the leader board ends today. This is going to be a rough 8 pack for me Conformity
and rebellion...both ways are simple-minded--they are only for people
who cannot cope with contradiction and ambiguity. |

is Sans going to end up dead last in X-Stats? "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion"Always remember "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |

_SecretSquirrel posted... Sans is the easist enemy, so of course he's getting fodderized. There's no need to try in this route, it's not a genocide. So of course he isn't doing anything... You felt your sins weighing down on your neck. |
im317 posted... is Sans going to end up dead last in X-Stats? I think it's gonna be Chloe. Lightning is the last character you want to be tripled by. Even Ratchet might be better. I owe it to y'all, DpOblivion and BKShiekah. Congrats on your brackets! (edited 10/28/2018 6:48:45 PM)report |
NeoElfboy posted... Also yay, I'm on the leaderboard. Probably gonna get 3/4 today, which... might let me stay on? Gonna miss Riku/Bayonetta but as a fan of hers I'll take that one. Same here! Except I went Ryu H. > Simon. And I love Simon! I don't know how to feel about this. Backlog: Friday the 13th (C64). Last finished: Splatterhouse (ARC). Friday the 13th (NES). Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions (PS1) |
Well
Geralt and Simon are slowly but surely pulling away, will end up 4/4
today if these results hold but feeling awful about having Geralt to the
divisional finals now, not sure what the hell happened apart from LOL
newer games, to the point where even any fodder nintendo will do well vs
these newer characters |
I'm up in 4th on the leaderboard but it's all downhill from here. Two f*** ups today Started from the bottom now we here |

TsunamiXXVIII posted... Wow. These, uh, these anti-votes are something. What anti-votes? You mean for Sans? He’s just weak. And Uptown Funk is a solid song... |
The Owner of FF9 posted... charmander6000 posted...The Owner of FF9 posted...show hidden quote(s)im317 posted...Behemoth_Knight posted...Wow so many people had Shovel Knight over Captain Toad I doubt Dr. Mario would be as close to Mario as X and MM, even though he’s the same character unlike X. But just a few points difference would flip the Captain Toad result. I could certainly see the Captain prefix hurting Toad more than that. Everybody knows Toad, not everybody knows Captain Toad. This site doesn’t like new things. |
Dr.
Mario has what 1 game? 2? X has 8? plus multiple collections including
one that came out this year. X is way way closer to Megman then Dr.
Mario is to Mario. "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion"Always remember "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |
Good lord these results. Smash boost CONFIRMED. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
Would
Dr. Mario really be that much weaker than Mario? Dr. Mario is Mario. I
guess he might lose a bit of strength since a lab coat isn't as iconic
as his normal look but it shouldn't be that much. This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
Mario > Dr. Mario because Mario has way more, bigger games. "Toad" doesn't have any games, he's barely even got presence in games except for the ones you can play as him as (SMB2, SM3DW, some NSMBs) and while I love those games they're not exactly the favoured Marios on GameFAQs. I don't see any reason Captain Toad would be significantly weaker. On a purely personal note you can count me as someone who would vote for Captain Toad over more opponents than regular Toad.
