Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1350
GameFAQs Contests
As the resident (ahem) lover of rallies, I'm claiming this one. Gotta make stats topics once in awhile! https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/1350-west-division-round-2-ryu-vs-dante Remember when people thought Dante could win this match? And then the Canadian hockey team robbed him of winning the rematch? https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/3817-midgar-division-round-2-ryu-vs-dante Good times. ~*creativename's contest site*~ http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/drupal/ ~*The Board 8 Wiki (lots of useful contest and board information, including all past Post-Contest Analyses*~ https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page ~*List of All Polls (a search bar is at the bottom)*~ http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html ~*NGamer64's Archive Sites (good stuff!) and (LOL) X-Stats Sim*~ http://www.thengamer.com/ http://thengamer.com/xstats ~*GameFAQs Contests Hall of Fame*~ https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/GameFAQs_Contests_Hall_of_Fame https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/GameFAQs_Contests_Match_Hall_of_Fame ~*Closest Wire-To-Wire Matches*~ https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/Closest_Wire-to-Wire_Matches ~*All-Time Guru List*~ https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/All_Time_Guru_Rankings ~*Most Surprising Results*~ https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/Most_Surprising_Results ~*Contest Histories*~ https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Contest_Histories ~*All the Match Pics*~ http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery/index.php ~*Daily Vote Trends - An Explanation for Dummies*~ https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/Daily_Vote_Trends ~*Leonhart4's Trend Charts*~ https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?hl=en&key=tOGmynfNIiNy5VukpEF-PdA&hl=en#gid=0 ~*Simple Explanation of Extrapolated Standings*~ A = Strongest Character B = Character Weaker than A C = Character Weaker than B To figure out a character's extrapolated percentage ---> [(CvB)(BvA)]/50 = CvA To compare how C would do against B ---> [(CvA)/(BvA)]*50 = CvB To figure out how B would do against A ---> [(CvA)/(CvB)]*50 = BvA |

I said it in the other topic, but it bears repeating: Trends make exciting matches, not bulls*** rallies... "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and hellboy" - trancer1 lol xstats |
What
exactly do we define as a rally, though. I feel like equating getting
people you know to throw in a dozen votes to posting something online
where it can get massive exposure seems wrong. The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |

I
think the prevalence of positively-received rallies in GotD 2 compared
to CBX is a sign that people generally find game contests more exciting
than character contests. Advokaiser is the man. Congrats! |
go luster go stuff the votes just dont turn the vpn off |

putting this in here too because it's f***ing hilarious, like literally why (|| ' ' ||) drooling while eating . /|_|\ |
Beggars
can't be choosers. For all you know, that's just one of many rally
topics made across 30 different game subreddits we haven't even checked
yet! It's Reyn Time. |
See you all in three hours when the next match starts. The music was thud-like. The music was... thud-like. |
That rally on FGO reminds me of the s***post image from 4chan about Bloodborne fans creating a petition for more GotY awards. (edited 4/21/2020 4:59:57 PM)report |

Damn, do you not have like 10 good friends that you still talk to on at least a weekly basis? I'm still young so we haven't drifted apart, but that sucks!

oh f*** did anyone check the Pit Fighter subreddit??? Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

A typical reaction to reddit rallies in CBX was 12% upvotes and one comment which just says "f*** off" Advokaiser is the man. Congrats! |

Moonroof got the 70+ votes, but RE2 might have won anyway. It ended up winning by 88. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
Wow, that's a really low prediction % for ME2. Did a lot of people just pick Fortnite? "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |

Honestly feel like you could hypothetically rally Bloodborne anywhere on reddit unless it was against Witcher 3 >_> I live on, THROUGH THIS SEASHELL! VI |

I
was behind 145 people yesterday on the overall standings. I got the
perfect 8 points today and only moved up about 20 places. Competition is
getting stiff near the top, and it looks like someone will need 4
points tomorrow (which is no guarantee) and then to pretty much run the
table for the remainder of the round in order to break into or stay on
the Top 50. Great job with the predictions this year, everyone. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg (edited 4/21/2020 5:06:02 PM)report |
Janus5k posted... Wow, that's a really low prediction % for ME2. Did a lot of people just pick Fortnite? It had a low percentage last round, too. There were a lot of casual bait picks in its eightpack. |

User votes saved RE2. The rallies put BB over in both Anon and raw votes. If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? #theresafreakingghostafterus |
Alright
after that s*** I'm going to sleep early tonight. These matches are
over. Someone tell me when the Shovel Knight rally started in the
morning. The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |

I'm
glad the Registered User bonus did its job for the first time ever, but
considering Bloodborne might win if you remove it and the rallies I'm
still kind of eeeeh on it It's Reyn Time. |
There's
a very real chance the division finalists will be the 1 and 2 seeds in
Division 1, 3, 5, and 7 and the 1 and 3 seeds in Division 2, 4, 6, and
8. "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) |

So I haven’t read much of last topic but are people actually taking friggin Moonroof seriously? [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO Advokaiser NO PEACE] |
FFDragon posted... User votes saved RE2. The rallies put BB over in both Anon and raw votes. You mean the Gamefaqs users saved RE2? How very fitting Also Can we nominate BB being the turd of the entire contest when this thing is done? Literally had s*** ton of rallies in a close match and STILL FAILED. Utter embarrassment. |

failmask posted... Wtf is this lol BlAcK TuRtLe posted... Suck it, another s***ty f***ing rally shot down. When will these sperglords learn their lesson? Lol Well I had bloodborne winning but I knew it was a long shot. I dont give enough of a s*** to rally so down with the ship I go !! |
Is this Moonroof person a new account? Everyone talks like he's a regular, but I've literally never seen him before. "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and hellboy" - trancer1 lol xstats |
