BlAcK TuRtLe posted... There's not a chance Luigi wins next round. The Tifa/MMX winner was always going to win that division. Especially now that ExTha knows he can successfully rally hentai websites Big call indeed Started from the bottom now we here |

UltimaterializerX posted... Oh look, the people who claim to hate rallies now love them because the character they were rooting for won. Again, you have to make everything about you. This board has never been anti-rallies. Mario/Crono was rallies. Pretty much every major match from the early contests was rallies. This "rallies are fine as long as my character/game wins" mentality has ALWAYS BEEN HERE. It just became more noticeable in the previous two contests because nobody here actually wanted Draven or Undertale to win. And it doesn't matter what your opinion on the issue is, because that opinion is only yours and has no effect on anyone else's opinions. The only one "literally obsessed" with you is you. "Someday I'll catch up, and then you'll all be surprised!" BKSheikah has the power. He is the one. |
LeonhartFour posted... heroicmario posted...Pikachu laying it down, Ganondorf getting revenge for Mario. I’m good with these results! Curses you may be right, it’s been so long I vaulted that whole contest. Also, I can’t believe Tifa won! #teamgreen |
Also,
what kind of rally are we talking about here? Tifa squeaked by with a
win, and the match totals were in line with the rest of this contest. It
couldn’t have been that much, yeah? In that case, what’s the big deal?
Those have always existed. It’s the absurd Draven/Undertale ones that
suck all the fun out of it. |

Yeah, the rallies probably largely canceled themselves out and didn't amount to too much. |
That’s
what it seems like to me. I would have preferred X to win, but if
someone rallied a few extra votes for Tifa, that’s not really worth
getting too upset over. Maybe if she went on to win with like 56% or
something. |
I
can't WAIT for Ganondorf to get disintegrated by Link followed by
losing to a cutesy rat. Serves him right for beating my buddy Vivi! Nobody should complain about MMX losing. If MMX really deserved the win, he should have been popular enough to win the match by a margin that rallies cannot overcome. I would take Tifa or MMX to beat Bowser or Yoshi with like 55%...so Luigi needs to be a bit above them to be able to take out Tifa, in my opinion. But Luigi's performances have looked a lot better than his fellow Mario rivals, so Luigi could definitely win it. I think Tifa still has the slight advantage, though. Lopen posted... Luigi will 54-46 Tifa book it Only if his match against Tails was not an overperformance! And similarly, if Kirby/Phoenix was not an overperformance, Kirby is beating Bowser with 58-60%.... "Ah, a
party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So... what is a
party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
Lopen posted... I've got no inconsistency with rallies. If I think it looks like an actual rally I like it (unless it's for Pokemon cause screw them). If I think it appears unnatural and more like vote stuffing I don't. This one seemed legit. Probably had some vote stuffing from both sides because I'm sure they all do, but mostly legitimate. Lopen with the salient points as usual...! Me, I don't even have a problem with the rallies. Not even the big ones that hijack the entire contest, even if I don't like them. The Draven thing, I was just hyped up that we had a villain to try to take down. Draven vs. Link was the most intense match that I've been present for, since I'm comparatively new here, having only arrived in '09. Undertale, I was a bit disappointed only because Division 3 was legitimately the division I was most excited about. Granted, given how the rest of the contest went, it's pretty obvious that SMW would've easily beaten SMB3 (not that it would've gotten the chance because RBY got in the way), but the SMB3/SMW/RBY debate, and even though I'm a Pokéfan I would've rather seen one of the Marios win because I really feel like SM64 could've surprised everyone by beating them in the quarterfinals. And none of those interesting matches ever came to pass because Undertale was in their division instead of, say, Division 1. Now that would've been fun, and I would've laughed my ass off at the salt when CT took an early loss...oh, wait, that happened anyway! Thanks Melee!

Registered/Anonymous user stats for the final 3 hours of voting (4:00 PM to 7:00 PM) Luigi vs. Miles 'Tails' Prower Registered Vote Result: Luigi - 452 (70.08%) Miles 'Tails' Prower - 193 (29.92%) Anonymous Vote Result: Luigi - 1029 (60.42%) Miles 'Tails' Prower - 674 (39.58%) Tifa Lockheart vs. Mega Man X Registered Vote Result: Tifa Lockheart - 318 (49.15%) Mega Man X - 329 (50.85%) Anonymous Vote Result: Tifa Lockheart - 953 (56.03%) Mega Man X - 748 (43.97%) Sephiroth vs. Amaterasu Registered Vote Result: Sephiroth - 390 (60.84%) Amaterasu - 251 (39.16%) Anonymous Vote Result: Sephiroth - 1055 (61.80%) Amaterasu - 652 (38.20%) Ryu vs. KOS-MOS Registered Vote Result: Ryu - 448 (69.89%) KOS-MOS - 193 (30.11%) Anonymous Vote Result: Ryu - 1046 (61.28%) KOS-MOS - 661 (38.72%) Tails might have actually been the outright favorite over Luigi from the votes coming in from the outside rallies. It should be noted that anonymous users also may also regular site visitors voting in the matches that simply don't have an account. Some of them may also be site visitors who stumbled upon the matches after landing on the site from Google or another search engine and then were somehow able to browse to the homepage. Looking at just the final 3 hours, Tifa seemed to have the larger rally going during that time. Sephiroth seems to have been hurt only very slightly by the rallied votes. The rallied votes might have been favoring Sephiroth with maybe 59-60% of the vote over Amaterasu where as the other anonymous votes not connected to the rally were favoring Sephiroth with more than 62% of the vote. KOS-MOS was another character who got a great boost from the Tifa rally, although it's not as likely that the rallied votes outright favored KOS-MOS over Ryu.

ExThaNemesis posted... creativename posted...What match was this? Who did Ulti rally for? Did rallies win Red that match? |
creativename posted... Who did Ulti rally for? No omg pay attention lol Ulti "rallied" for Red and it did almost nothing "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
I couldn't imagine Ulti successfully rallying anything to be honest. He always phrases things in such an antihype way. No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Man, I’m beginning to think the last match gave BT some sort of PTSD. ExThaNemesis posted... creativename posted...Who did Ulti rally for? I saw the claim that Ulti’s rally didn’t work, but I was presuming there were other rallies. |
You
know, is it me, or is this the contest of waifus? It sure seems like
waifu girls, cartoony pretty girls, have been doing real well. From the
anime girls, to even Zelda, if you consider her a sort of waifu. Is this the Year of the Waifu? Is waifu factor a thing now? Waifu games are all the rage in the Steam community, from what I understand (someone correct me if I’m mistaken, it’s not my type of genre). Maybe waifus are more popular as characters now than back in the day, when maybe gamers were more male centric? Or am I reaching here? |
obviously it's all the hentai rallies "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
ZenOfThunder posted... Wtf does anyone do research here ZenOfThunder posted... It’s funny how everyone focuses on the Tifa hentai rallies that got no upvotes or views and not the fairly successful MMX rally or exthas actual tifa rally ?? https://i.imgtc.com/wW3Zdl8.png 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Caught up with the night posts I must say - that as a Mega Man X supporter - both as a huge fan and from bracket perspective - I must apologize for Black Turtle's behaviour He does not represent the Mega Man fanbase and is making us look bad, so for that I apologize. Tifa win was legitimate, both characters were rallied (X even had a very minor /v/ rally, alongside that big reddit rally) I must thank everyone involved that helped us get the (probably) best match of the contest I am sorry that Black Turtle ruined some of it, though 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Black Turtle didn't ruin anything, if anything his meltdown just added to the festivities. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |

Man, I really wish people would stop talking about Black Turtle so I can forget he exists. 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 |
This is all Dr. Light's fault for not giving X jugs. Otherwise the drama sounds hilarious and the board has finally found a successful place to rally characters beyond KKK boards, so all in all a good day. |
LeonhartFour posted... POTD showing why Gordon got blown out https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5802- https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6349- https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6817- https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/7009- https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/7416- Here's the percentage of the last option over the history of those polls: 3/3/2015 - 49.44% 6/1/2016 - 67.46% 8/26/2017 - 62.50% 3/6/2018 - 76.71% 11/16/2018 - 62.60% (currently) The early 2018 poll might have been an outlier, since today's poll is more similar to last year's poll than the one from early 2018. The first thing I noticed was a huge jump in the "never" option between the 2015 and 2016 polls. Gordon didn't really seem any weaker in 2013 compared to 2010, so his strength may have started declining as early as 2014 (and certainly by 2015).

LusterSoldier posted... 3/6/2018 - 76.71% What the f*** happened here I thought that maybe this poll was right after the "leaked Half Life 3 ending" thing http://www.marclaidlaw.com/epistle-3/ But nope, that was half a year later 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
So how would you all react if Tifa won the entire contest due to outside rallies? The Big Problem with the Pokemon anime: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/217-pokemon/75265633 |
A victory for Tifa is a victory for hentai I'm fine with it (If every rally of her is from there anyway) (edited 11/16/2018 1:54:50 AM) |
_Dog_ posted... So how would you all react if Tifa won the entire contest due to outside rallies? I'd only laugh cause I picked the wrong person to rally Formerly known as Raven 2 http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/ZeroSignal620.png |
_Dog_ posted... So how would you all react if Tifa won the entire contest due to outside rallies? GameFAQs being remembered as HENTAIFAQs for years to come sounds pretty good to me I wish it was 2B though 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Peach could've been a beast n2k |
Tifa has allowed me to break even on some important Square/Nintendo matches After round 1 ended I massively regretted Sora >Red, Squall > Zelda, Aeris > Fox and Tifa to round 4 I'll definitely take 2/4 things coming through Started from the bottom now we here |
Imagine if the entire porn/hentai community rallies Tifa and wins the contest, that would be a even bigger s***storm than Draven |
handsomeboy2012 posted... Imagine if the entire porn/hentai community rallies Tifa and wins the contest, that would be a even bigger s***storm than Draven This is why we need to make sure Samus gets a ZSS pic If all else fails use fire. |
_Dog_ posted... So how would you all react if Tifa won the entire contest due to outside rallies? Better than Draven. Though anything would be. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
handsomeboy2012 posted... Imagine if the entire porn/hentai community rallies Tifa and wins the contest, that would be a even bigger s***storm than Draven Tifa is an important character from the second most popular game on this site. She have defeated a couple of popular characters and even went 50/50 with Samus Aran. Draven went from losing to a freaking Persona character to dominating the whole contest. The only rally I can see happening is Tifa > Sephiroth and I know Board 8 would support that! Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. DpOblivion > Me |
Well obviously Tifa is well liked in Gamefaqs, but the source of the last rally did piss some people off. |
I would support Tifa>Sephiroth, but she has to go through Tifa>Luigi and I am not going to support that 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Do we think Mega Man is screwed against Pikachu by the way? Started from the bottom now we here (edited 11/16/2018 3:00:36 AM) |
haloiscoolisbak posted... Do we think Mega Man is screwed against Pikachu by the way? No Mega Man was able to beat Charizard with Zero in the poll in the year Pokemon was at it's strongest Now granted you might say Pikachu>Charizard, which is true, but I am not sure 2018 Pikachu > 2013 Charizard You can also might argue Detective Pikachu trailer boost or Let's Go boost...but I doubt Pikachu performance here is good, but nothing that would put Mega Man in danger 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Actually https://i.imgtc.com/PGCkblm.png This isn't SFF adjusted but...Pikachu is currently doing better than this I guess this is why it's called "lol x-stats" 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 (edited 11/16/2018 3:37:17 AM) |
I actually buy 2018 Pikachu being ahead of 2013 Zard. However,
2013 Zard still needed Zero in the poll to just about beat Mega Man.
Pikachu should look respectable, but I highly doubt the winner will ever
be in question. |
Mega Man nearly got 50% in the bonus match with Pikachu and Mewtwo (another harbinger of Mewtwo is a fraud, in case you were wondering), so Pikachu would have needed almost 100% of Mewtwo's votes to beat Mega Man there. |
creativename posted... You know, is it me, or is this the contest of waifus? It sure seems like waifu girls, cartoony pretty girls, have been doing real well. From the anime girls, to even Zelda, if you consider her a sort of waifu. I previously thought it was some weird counterculture, Kotaku-esqu, SJWFF. Now more than anything, I think all the desperate virgins on this site have started gravitating toward the only thing that arouses them anymore, cartoon porn characters. Look how 'female' characters like GLA-DOS and Ammy didn't look crazy strong. BKSheikah, my hat is off to you. Welcome to the Guru Champions Club lol xstats |
if
Waifu factor was a thing why would Auron, the manliest of men defeat
Lucina? Fire Emblem female characters in particular are known to make
great waifus! also I can't believe I am using the word "waifu" semi seriously. wtf. ... (edited 11/16/2018 5:17:39 AM) |
Because it isn't an omnipotent factor. It just helps a character score a little higher than she would otherwise. (At least in theory. I'm not a particular proponent of Waifu Factor.) |
If
Ganondorf = Zelda, how does Vivi > Squall from 2013 compare to Ganon
> Vivi and Zelda > Squall this year? I'm about to go into work
and am only going off memory, but I'm curious to see if those numbers
line up despite Nintendo/LoZ:BotW-boosts and Zelda impressing us more
than Ganon has. Nominate METAL MAN for 20XX! https://imgur.com/Dr4NAeq |
Evillordexdeath posted... Because it isn't an omnipotent factor. It just helps a character score a little higher than she would otherwise. I think it's more that female characters are more prominent in games nowadays, but at the same time they're not widespread enough for people to just view them with indifference the same way they do with realistically-proportioned human male characters (aka GENERIC MCDUDES). Would the Yakuza characters count as McDudes? Just asking since technically they're not white. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
HaRRicH posted... If Ganondorf = Zelda, how does Vivi > Squall from 2013 compare to Ganon > Vivi and Zelda > Squall this year? I'm about to go into work and am only going off memory, but I'm curious to see if those numbers line up despite Nintendo/LoZ:BotW-boosts and Zelda impressing us more than Ganon has. Squall got 44.42% on Vivi in 2013. If Zelda = Ganondorf, Squall gets 38.34% on Vivi right now. This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
abdou posted... if Waifu factor was a thing why would Auron, the manliest of men defeat Lucina? Fire Emblem female characters in particular are known to make great waifus! You are missing the point. The Waifu Factor doesn't mean that any generic anime girl can now defeat Link. The Waifu Factor is more that cute anime girls suddenly get an X% increase in their base strength this year compared to past. And yes, it's pretty clear to me that the Waifu factor is real and I've believed in it since 2B started beasting. I used to use r/gaming a lot and you have no idea how much sexy 2B cosplay/fanart there is on there and someone else here has mentioned that 2B is the "waifu of the generation", which I believe from all the cosplay. If anything, just look at Final Fantasy. Terra, Aeris, Tifa all look great, while the men of Final Fantasy all range from slightly disappointing to complete jokes. You can offer whatever complex explanation you want to describe the state of Final Fantasy on this site, but Occam's Razor has Waifu Factor written all over it. congrats to BKSheikah the BYIG guru |
How is this "Waifu factor" any different from TJF? Congrats to 2017 Guru champ BKSheikah! |
