Karma Hunter posted... Votes should be dropping off at this point, even accounting for variance. The rally is a better indicator of why she just got cut considering the countless correlations we have for them. In day matches, votes drop off at a much slower pace than night matches. This can be seen in the poll graphs for the day matches. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
I want to see someone pull out the most ridiculous stat comparisons ever.... to get Chester above Link Using direct match-ups... Guybrush > Max Payne > Gordon Freeman > Peach > CATS > Nathan Drake > Pac-Man > Ness > Zidane > Shadow > Wario > Captain Falcon > Riku > Hayabusa > Jill > Kirby > Sonic > Crono > Mega Man > Solid Snake > Sephiroth > Mario > Cloud > Link Guybrush gets 96.83% on Link, which is below Tanner, but not Chester, but when you... Link > Yoshi > Guybrush Link gets 99.45% on Link --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 62/76 Today's Picks: WCC and ? Block |
I'm
not denying that, but we still see a drop off. I'm not denying that
Rikku dropped off, either, but ? Block probably doesn't maintain enough
to take advantage of it on that cut without the rally getting started on
that update. It's not apparent how robust it is, anyway. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

charmander6000 posted... Fox seems to be around Sub-Zero/Jill in terms of strength, half decent, but nothing special. For some reason I'm tempted to disagree on Sub-Zero and Jill in so far as being "nothing special in terms of contest strength", but I think it's more that those two characters are way stronger than I'd expect them to be. In hindsight, you're right though. All three characters were doubled by Samus or Snake in 2010. Samus and Snake are virtually equal. Speaking of which, put things this way. Red had a close win over Ocelot in 2010, and Jill had a close win over the same character in 2008. Jill got doubled by Samus. Fox got doubled by Snake. Samus and Snake are near-equals. This puts Red and Fox at around the same level. In Rivalry Rumble, Red was the character who seemed to gain the most from having his rival on his team, and since the general rule of thumb was two decent characters > a strong character and a weak character, it could be inferred that Blue had a good chance of being about equal to Red. While this could all be fallacious thinking, this is the best way I can think of to have seen the Blue > Fox upset ahead of time (which I didn't). --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Seeing Lyn lose like this to ?-Block is really bad for my health. I'm out. --- SuperNiceDog won the Guru contest super nicely! |
Karma Hunter posted... Also geez Lyndis talk about your joke trends ;-; At this rate, I'm wondering if (or maybe I should say "when") she'll drop to the point where *both* Rikku and ? Block will double her. --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Blue > Fox was the guru favorite, man Though Blue looking like he could beat Fox straight up was not, admittedly (though there are some of us who still don't believe that's the case). --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Snake vs. Cloud vs. Gary Oak is gonna be the best match ever. --- ~War~ |
I mean uh uh uh HORSEFAQS DO YOU BELIEVE? Nay --- ~War~ |
On the topic of this match, for once Rikku isn't shafted! Horray! Not sure if she can really give Zero a good fight though. Zero got 47% on Auron last time IIRC. I think it's asking a bit much for Rikku to be that strong. Doing some research, apparently it was only 43%. So much for that, he's probably within striking distance of Zero. Now just watch the upset take place. Of course, Zero has gotten Marvel vs. Capcom 3 since last contest, but you never know. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |

Weighted Companion Cube-Lenneth
had a smaller "max lead" than the last one on the "closest wire-to-wire
matches--non-1v1" list entering the match, but fails to make the top 50
even for a moment because with WCC-Claptrap in the way, it falls to
#51. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
2 bad updates in a row for ? Block. I assume it will return to a more normal vote intake soon. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |

Dammit, ? Block. You failed me. Well, JokeFAQs is essentially done. Now on to DK FAQS! --- Drop it to the floor... |
I'm kinda disappointed I didn't see an MvC3 boost coming. If only we could get Wolverine into one of these...! --- ~War~ |
I
was confident that Lyndis would be more of a detriment to Rikku. Now
that Block is displaying very traditional Nintendo trends, I've probably
been proven wrong. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |

Now that Block is displaying very traditional Nintendo trends, I've probably been proven wrong. maybe if Lyn had more TJF factor she would otherwise I expected her to "hurt" ? Block more which is why I had Rikku since the beginning --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
Why, I'd go so far as to say the MvC crew so far has looked marvelous! --- ~War~ |
If
Rikku can get past this match she's got a shot. Not as sexy as I liked
it earlier since Zero went out and showed no weakness, but that blowout
should neither have been unexpected. Of course, Zero could be actually stronger (MvC3 boost, across the board MM boost from SSB4, etc.) but I'll feel much more comfortable calling for something like that if he outperforms expectations against her. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

FranzyvonKarma posted... Why, I'd go so far as to say the MvC crew so far has looked marvelous! I can theoretically get behind this. Is there any one of them that hasn't exceeded expectations? I'm trying to think... maybe Wesker but hey Leon that's not even a cool setup --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
It would be cool to see Rikku beat Zero very in the realm of possibility I'd say. Zero got 43 on Auron, and I think Rikku could do that before SFF --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
Oh,
Ryu and Chun Li didn't look good. They're the most fighter-y out of any
of the characters in that game though so they probably had a limited
way to rise from the fighting game exposure. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Rikku got 42.47% on Kirby while Vivi (about equal to Zero) got 42.37% Of course Rikku got Kirby at night while Vivi got him at day. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 62/76 Today's Picks: WCC and ? Block |
If you think Kirby beats Auron in a night match (fairly easily) then Rikku/Zero is debatable 1v1 in 2010. Karma Hunter posted... Oh, Ryu and Chun Li didn't look good. They're the most fighter-y out of any of the characters in that game though so they probably had a limited way to rise from the fighting game exposure. Yeah I meant characters who actually had a reason to possibly boost. Ryu/Chun don't benefit much from MvC3 for the same reason Brawl doesn't help Mario or Link, if you get this game, odds are very likely you already know and have an opinion on that character. --- ~War~ |
Frank West looked pretty abysmal! --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Yeah, that's because he was fighting game SFFed by Sub-Zero! --- ~War~ |

Why
isn't ? Block stomping on this match? And why on earth did L-Block
performed so good in its match? This doesn't make any sense. --- SuperNiceDog wags his tail better than your regular, standard dog. -If someone scares the hell out of you, then are you protected by God? |

Ryu/Pikachu
comparisons making me feel better about mousey's chances. Ryu got 56%
on Yuri L/Face McShooty while Pika got 53% on Lloyd Irving/Big Daddy.
Big Daddy went even with Lloyd and I'd imagine they'd both be a good bit
stronger than the likes of Face (probably comparable to Lloyd himself,
really). Being ahead of Ryu puts you in solid near-elite turf, which
should be enough to give Crono w/ Magus a run. Which makes Zero look like a god. Hmm. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |

I've
always subscribed to the belief that roughly, Tidus = Yuna = Rikku, and
no way do I see Zero losing to any of those guys. I'm not sure what the
hell happened in 2010 against Auron but I'd take him to do notably
better this year. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/gdl8lcn.jpg |
I just can't see Zero dropping that match to Rikku, especially in a day match. --- Drop it to the floor... |
Zero,
the Evo2013 Champ. Maybe he would have been an actual threat if he had
been in Vincent's spot? Sonic/Zero/Bowser, I mean. Or is he crushed by
some platformer hierarchy or whatever. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |

Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
I had no idea why anyone liked Tharja when I first recruited her in Awakening. Then I got one of her support conversations wherein she wanted to do terrible things to me. This was in one of her conversations with someone else entirely. Now I'm no longer confused, just disappointed. --- ~War~ |

Being ahead of Ryu puts you in solid near-elite turf, which should be enough to give Crono w/ Magus a run. I'm of the belief that Pikachu = Zero. Of course, that would imply that Lloyd Irving is a little stronger than Kratos Aurion. Still, even if Pikachu equaled Zero in tems of strength, that still makes him the favorite to take on Crono, who'll be hindered by Magus. --- Drop it to the floor... |

I'm not sure what the hell happened in 2010 against Auron but I'd take him to do notably better this year. He almost lost to Vivi in the contest before that, and Tidus is quite close to him historically (though always a half-step below). Zero putting up that number on Auron was actually a marked improvement for him, though it still didn't put him much ahead of SFFed Aeris. Zero hasn't shined against good competition in a long time, so it'll be nice to see if he can really bring it to Rikku. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

Lloyd doesn't just have to be 'a little stronger', he has to beat down Kratos with 58% pre-SFF to even get Pikachu = Zero. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
