Do
you think Mario puts up like 67-68% on Squall? Because if theres a
Zelda bandwagon then that's potentially what we are looking at |
Zelda was pretty frontloaded against Mario. No, it's not on L-Block level, that's true. You completely ignored what I said when you made that point. There's no way division 8 is that terrible. Auron and Seph being that close? Cmon. Ctesjbuvf posting on his phone. |
I
like Mario more and am rooting for him for this one (especially because
I want to see Cloud/Mario again), but I would definitely appreciate a
Samus win after her contest history and showing that she can stand up
and beat freaking Mario. Either result is cool with me. Let's Play Octopath Traveler (SSLP) https://mega64.net/index.php/lp/ot |
red sox 777 posted... Safer_777 posted...Come on people. Zelda barely beat Snake and barely beat Mario. Do you really think that Snake equals Mario? No. There is a bandwagon around here somehwere. Did you not see the whole gang Metal Gear gang looking bad? Mario wouldn't have to 67-68% Squall for him to be stronger than Zelda. Ctesjbuvf posting on his phone. |
The_Ctes posted... Did you not see the whole gang Metal Gear gang looking bad? Snake has one very big reason not to look bad that literally none of them do so this isn't a compelling argument by itself. |
All this discussion is doing is reminding me that adjusting the stats for Division 5-8 is going to be a massive headache. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Snake
may look better than he did against Samus, but he's not getting 50%+
against Mario. Would anyone here really bet against Mario in that match? Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
Xeybozn posted... The concept of "bandwagons" is a fraud. Explain 2013 Mewtwo and Geralt this contest wololo |
CaptainOfCrush posted... Snake may look better than he did against Samus, but he's not getting 50%+ against Mario. Would anyone here really bet against Mario in that match? This year? Probably not. Using Tifa/Seph suggests that Mario isn't that far behind Samus indirectly. Not the best metric to use, probably, but it's the best we've got. |
The_Ctes posted... red sox 777 posted...Safer_777 posted...show hidden quote(s)Come on people. Zelda barely beat Snake and barely beat Mario. Do you really think that Snake equals Mario? No. There is a bandwagon around here somehwere. Well Zelda put up 63.3 on him. So if you are saying she beat him via bandwagon, then he has to beat Squall by a decent chunk more. It's not like Zelda has gradually put in more and more impressive results. She was ridiculous out of the gate and put immediate response was Squall must suck now but the rest of her results suggest she just really is that strong |
I
don't take Snake over Mario, but it's very possible that he's not far
behind. Win or lose, I don't think Mario is equal to Samus in strength -
she's clearly above him based on every result we've seen so far that
*isn't* them going head-to-head. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Lost in all this is that Mario is slowly clawing his way back |
If you want to say that Zelda's "bandwagon" allowed her to resist SFF from Mario, I could go for that. And probably wouldn't pick Snake over Mario this year after the Samus match. If she can SFF away his Smash support, Mario probably can too September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |
Let's all ignore various other variables like SFF rSFF Smash release pics revenge votes etc etc wololo |
I put a hit out on Samus |
red sox 777 posted... If you want to say that Zelda's "bandwagon" allowed her to resist SFF from Mario, I could go for that. Well yes? Board 8 are not exactly the typical voters, so I can't reqlly give myself as an example, but to me looking at her performance made me want to vote for her over Mario because I believed she could make it wololo |
It's also possible that Zelda rSFFd Mario, being the name of the more popular Nintendo game. Or a combination of both. I just have a really hard time seeing someone unexpected getting to the semis destroying NN'ers without getting a bit of a bandwagon. I saw at least half the board hoping she won that match because it's new and unexpected. Ctesjbuvf posting on his phone. |
Oh s***, Samus leading by one vote 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 |

Gaaaahhhh. Hang in there Samus! "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." |
Holy s*** Character Battle X Current Score: 368/528 GG all |
Will Mario steal another victory ? |
go the f*** away stinky plumber Born to lose, live to win! |
FREAKING MARIO! Vote stuffing as per tradition of course. So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
Third straight 1 vote lead for Samus - that's gotta be a record. "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima BKSheikah won Guru, but you know that. |
Has there been a closer wire to wire match in history? This could be it Once Europe goes to bed soon samus should pull ahead. |
Just put in a vote for Mario. Other M and Fed Force...barf. PLAYSTATION 4: Best Console Ever | ROCKSTAR: Best Developer Ever Trolling (v.): Posting an opinion that differs from yours |

What Seanchan said. >_> "Ah,

Yuri_LowelI posted... Has there been a closer wire to wire match in history? SOTC > MGS 2 was closer. None involving characters though |
And vote stuffing comes to save the day for Mario. Is there a bigger fraud in this competition than the fat plumber? |
Why is this topic so barren considering how close the match is? XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak PSN ID - Kudaark Steam Name : skaalfa |
Qwaar posted... Why is this topic so barren considering how close the match is? Because this s*** has gotten old wololo |
EpsteinBarr posted... And vote stuffing comes to save the day for Mario. Is there a bigger fraud in this competition than the fat plumber? MGS and Blizzard as a whole... But as one single character.. f*** NO. I don't believe Mario has ever had a legit close match, ever. Pretty confident they cheated in 04 and 05 as well till it became obvious it wouldn't change anything. |
Why
is the automatic assumption Mario stuffing when Samus is the one who
had vote fluctuations between 17 and 50-60 in her comeback? Like I know Mario has previous but that was a hell of a long time ago |
This is taking years off my life Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. |
you could be finally getting your down to the last update match |
Qwaar posted... Why is this topic so barren considering how close the match is? Board 8ers are FRAUDS. Character Battle X Current Score: 368/528 GG all |

Everyone is just glancing at the poll every once in a while, while devoting the rest of their focus to Smash. Agent Triple Zero at your service!

Qwaar posted... Why is this topic so barren considering how close the match is? What is there to talk about unless someone pulls away? If it's still this close with 30 minutes left to go, things will be a different story. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
_SecretSquirrel posted... The Owner of FF9 posted...Qwaar posted...show hidden quote(s)Why is this topic so barren considering how close the match is? Honestly, there have been so many close matches like this now that it's starting to lose the appeal they had early on. Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. |
ShatteredElysium posted... Why is the automatic assumption Mario stuffing when Samus is the one who had vote fluctuations between 17 and 50-60 in her comeback? We like Samus. Congrats to 2017 Guru champ BKSheikah! |
I've
been mostly away from my computer the past few days (been checking
updates on my phone) but holy heck this has been an incredible battle. Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs |
Well I did my usual check on NordVPN and I have to say there has been more stuffing this match than I have ever seen. I’d say 50% of the servers worldwide have been used to vote in this contest. If anyone on here uses NordVPN check for yourself. |
Wouldn't that cause elevated vote totals? |
30 vote difference between winning and losing for Samus. Wow |
trogita posted... Wouldn't that cause elevated vote totals? It should do, yeah, but only by about 500. Enough to give a history but not enough to be a massive spike |
A gigantic spike for Samus then! |
That needs to be a one-off. A few more of those and this is over. Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. |
