Best. Game. Ever. Contest Analysis Crew - Part 3
man I suck at predicting percentages lately but somehow I have the high pick for Pokemon today --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Its happening bruhs Mario Arcade Mode as RBY proceeds to crush all 3 of them. --- Dr voltchball - best in the world. http://i.minus.com/iN5ZHjUDyI547.gif |
Avoiding crew curse more like knowing what's up. I mean, that awful 60-40 percentage might not even be the closest to the correct percentage--hell, it might not even be the best from an Oracle standpoint because even with the 5% penalty, Moltar and Kleenex would outscore KP if Undertale breaks 48%, and I think once all the rallies are over, it'll do that--but we're still living in a world where Fallout 4 is dominating the rest of the frontpage and even without that benefit, FO3 made the semifinals in GotD. I really don't know why everyone was so afraid of the rallies; it won't be enough. --- FC 5026-4424-6331 -- Native Vivillon type: Polar Still need Marine, Sun, Icy Snow, Monsoon, River, and Jungle |

Master Moltar posted... I guess you could say it has DETERMINATION niiiiice Master Moltar posted... hi im lazy oh hi i prefer nicomaki over nozoeli but i respect ur opinion, i'm kurumi-san on LINE :3 :3 --- http://myanimelist.net/profile/angryaria <Die the death>! <Sentence to death>! <Great equalizer is the death>!! |
what the actual HECK @ results today Pokemon coming out swinging while Undertale is still way down? FF8 just falling over and dying? Sonic crushing? I expected more close matches today lol --- http://myanimelist.net/profile/angryaria <Die the death>! <Sentence to death>! <Great equalizer is the death>!! |
well, pokemon/mario 3 was close but the rally sealed the deal. the rally just hasn't overwhelmed fallout yet. --- xyzzy |
ah okay that's what I'm trying to figure out now. Gotta see how bad Fallout was taking this before rallyfear --- http://myanimelist.net/profile/angryaria <Die the death>! <Sentence to death>! <Great equalizer is the death>!! |
at
least this will stop all the middle age men trying to rationalize "girl
voters" as seeing squall is hot and voting for him no matter what,
cause wow that was a little weird! (Lookin at you, NGamer!) --- http://myanimelist.net/profile/angryaria <Die the death>! <Sentence to death>! <Great equalizer is the death>!! |
do we have a term yet for 16 year old girls voting for a hot dude? rTJF (reverse The Jug Factor)? --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
TIF "the imaginary factor" --- Remember, we are eternal - all this pain is an illusion http://i.imgur.com/Qs9x1gS.png |
btw,
a note to the crew: only pokémon red and blue are in these matches.
other gen 1 pokémon games (yellow/green/pink/violet) are not included. at least kleenex and paulg got it right this time! --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
Mr Lasastryke posted... btw, a note to the crew: only pokémon red and blue are in these matches. other gen 1 pokémon games (yellow/green/pink/violet) are not included. then how come it mentions yellow and green when you hover over the pic? --- Remember, we are eternal - all this pain is an illusion http://i.imgur.com/Qs9x1gS.png |

oh whoops. i stand corrected. in that case the match pics are misleading! --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
Steiner posted... TIF Because there are no girls on the Internet. Seriously, though, it would be interesting to find out how voting breaks down over demographics. And while I'm sure it's just a coincidence, many of our traditional contest titans are attractive men. Link, Cloud, and Sephiroth are all traditional bishonen and Snake appeals well to the more western sensibilities of ruggedness. That's nearly half the Noble Nine. --- FC 5026-4424-6331 -- Native Vivillon type: Polar Still need Marine, Sun, Icy Snow, Monsoon, River, and Jungle |
kinda
weird how allen just lumped all those old pokémon games together. like,
yellow is a totally different game than red and blue and it isn't even
on the same device as those games. personally think it would have made
more sense to limit it to just red and blue but whatever. --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
Mr Lasastryke posted... yellow is a totally different game than red and blue and it isn't even on the same device as those games. what is this the mr lasastryke being wrong extravaganza or something --- Remember, we are eternal - all this pain is an illusion http://i.imgur.com/Qs9x1gS.png |
explain how that is wrong? --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
red/blue/yellow are all original gameboy games they're probably lumped to avoid the nightmare scenario of red/blue and yellow making the bracket as separate entries when they're similar enough to have as one --- http://i.imgur.com/RHvCiY3.png |
now that I think about it though we should have nominated OoT Master Quest --- http://i.imgur.com/RHvCiY3.png |

oh geez, i'm really screwing things up here. could've sworn yellow was GBC. my point of "yellow is totally different than red/blue so it's weird to lump them together" still stands, though. --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
you have a strange idea of what constitutes "totally different" then! --- http://i.imgur.com/RHvCiY3.png |
well,
in yellow you start out with pikachu rather than
bulbasaur/squirtle/charmander, it's possible to get all three of the
original starters without trading rather than 1/3, jesse and james are
in the game while they weren't in red/blue, the graphics are better,
etc. etc. to say yellow is exactly the same as red and blue isn't right.
though i do see some of the FAQs on this site simply lump all three
games together as well, so i could be exaggerating how big the
differences are. --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
yellow
takes place in the same world doing the same adventure, just with a
different team. it's barely any more different than red and blue are
from each other. --- Remember, we are eternal - all this pain is an illusion http://i.imgur.com/Qs9x1gS.png |
So that's it for Undertale. --- 3DS FC: 4382 - 2449 - 5707 IGN: Anthony |
Actually no. Plenty of time left. Wait until the kiddies of Tumblr wake up! --- Why do we exist?What happens when we stop existing? |
Except
for, like, Blue and the pictures of the pokemon you're fighting, I
think the graphics were actually pretty much all the same? Mostly the exact same maps (they changed up Unknown Dungeon IIRC), and with a few exceptions (Blue, Team Rocket, Gym Leaders) I think it's the exact same trainers with mostly the same dialogue. Pokemon locations/exclusives have been shuffled around (though there were already differences in red/blue) and there's special ways to get the rby starters. Plus all the Pikachu stuff obviously. It's clearly the same basic game, though. Delete the Yellow and "Pokemon: Special Pikachu Edition" is a pretty good description of what the game is. I mean if FR/LG counts as the same game as RB then Yellow sure as hell does! --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
AxemRedRanger posted... I mean if FR/LG counts as the same game as RB then Yellow sure as hell does! fr/lg are way more different than yellow is so yeah --- Remember, we are eternal - all this pain is an illusion http://i.imgur.com/Qs9x1gS.png |
alright this conversation needs to stop now the crew topic is a NO POKEMON ZONE --- http://i.imgur.com/RHvCiY3.png |
AxemRedRanger posted... Except for, like, Blue and the pictures of the pokemon you're fighting, I think the graphics were actually pretty much all the same? According to Wikipedia Yellow has "slightly improved graphics from its predecessors." Not relying on my own faulty memory anymore, as that obviously isn't working! I mean if FR/LG counts as the same game as RB Do they, though? FR/LG aren't included in the matches (even when hovering over the match pic!). --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
The Mana Sword posted... alright this conversation needs to stop now the crew topic is a NO POKEMON ZONE i see you're ready for dat pokémon - OoT final match! --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
I don't know why but people who use the é in pokemon drive me nuts damn you Pokemon --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
it drives ME nuts that i hear "poke-mon" in my mind whenever people type it incorrectly! --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
it drives me nuts when yo and NG refer to it as "pokey-mon" like a pair of grandparents on The Show --- Remember, we are eternal - all this pain is an illusion http://i.imgur.com/Qs9x1gS.png |
my mom still says pokeman --- Communists |
Steiner posted... it drives me nuts when yo and NG refer to it as "pokey-mon" like a pair of grandparents on The Show okay I'm with you here --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
transience posted... well, pokemon/mario 3 was close but the rally sealed the deal. the rally just hasn't overwhelmed fallout yet. Eh, Mario 3 got above 48% for exactly 1 update. I'm not sure when you're considering the rally to have started, but it was increasing its lead without much resistance even early on. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
it's
hard to say. Pokemon winning the early vote was expected and by the
time Mario started cutting, the rally started. there was a clear stall
and even a cut but everything after that is toast. RBY should be the favourite of Undertale isn't around but I don't think World needs to be much stronger than 3 to take that. it's just an unclear match that slid quickly out of control. Mario's best time - the morning - was true here too. --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
If it reaches to that hope there is a Pokemon rally all the way in. --- Why do we exist?What happens when we stop existing? |
SMB3
was getting roasted even on updates where the rally was doing almost
nothing. I don't think it's a very debatable match in a normal setting,
just closer. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I
know that's going to be the consensus, but I dunno. Mario didn't get a
chance to use its best time. I think it's probably a 51/49, kH/FF9 kind
of match with RBY taking it but I wouldn't write that in stone. --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
