Yeah really Fox shouldn't have been thought as the favorite here. NintenFEAR was the only real reason for it. 59% on Captain Toad doesn't look great but 54% on Jill Valentine is that much worse

Oh yeah I think Zelda went up a bit. Zelda vs Boss was the big warning there. Squall dropped too though I think, that's all I'm saying, so the boost isn't as ridiculous as it seems at first glance. I called Zelda at 59% so I'm not as surprised as most I guess.

Right, which helps. Right now you ram his anti votes directly into his strongest time so it offsets too much. It's still weird looking but his % doesn't start as low as it could due to the antivotes being concentrated in his strongest time not does it go up as fast as it could cause many of the anti votes come in when he's naturally strongest.

Not to mention I'd imagine a lot of his anti votes are actually from Europe anyway.

And I'm not even sure that even a 3:00 AM EST starting time (such as in 2004 and 2005) would even improve trends that much. At least a 3:00 AM starting time would happen when Europe is just starting to wake up, so they would have control over the early results, which could then set up some comebacks fueled by North America when they start to dominate the match.


Yeah. Trust it would change a decent amount. You wouldn't see the typical ASV vote but the morning vote would basically be a superpowered ASV that combines the old morning vote with the old ASV. I think trends would be better with a 3am EST start, particularly with characters like Chief.

It would change for Master Chief. The problem right now is the early anti-vote screws with the day vote (which now takes place early in the match) so the day vote gets muffled and Chief's vote swinginess gets hurt.

Main difference between mobiles with a later start time is the day vote would become the morning vote. Which is fine I just want the vote swing as ridiculous as possible

GAME FUEL year was the only time I've ever cared about Master Chief. Voted for him in like every match because it was just fun to see him randomly beasting over everything.


He's been fun to root for every year for me. Dude has had huge comebacks/attempts every year basically even when he failed. Including this one, really, just because making big cuts when you're down 56-44 is funny even if it doesn't last.

I just wish we had our 12am EST start time back.

But yeah pretty much all of my favorites have reps as chokers so while I like my share of non fodder in these things it is pretty irritating for me, to be sure. Kirby is my last real hope to get enjoyment out of this one. On the plus side he is looking primed to give me some.

True story these contests are probably like 70% of the reason I like Master Chief so much because I want *something* from the west to do well

Also cause his trends are so damn lopsided his matches are a hoot. Even this year he still had em, somehow

This match isn't the most shocking of the contest imo, not even close. We were already primed for it between The Boss vs Zelda and Ganondorf vs Dante. I had Zelda with about 59%. She probably ends not too far off that.

Well at minimum on the stats Lucina 55-45s Shulk based on 2013 and the three Fire Emblem Awakening stats in the bracket vs Shulk

At maximum it's more like a 60-40 if you take the highest value vs him (Chrom) instead.

Fire Emblem Awakening is a pretty big deal here, never mind any Heroes boost, so to me it passes the 'common sense' test to think the 60-40 is possible too.

The issue (we're still talking a Christian lens, right?) is getting yourself all hot and bothered over it, and letting those impulses take you over, whether that's wanting what you shouldn't have, or straight up leading you to adultery, or objectifying a human being, (there's my general-people argument, if you're allergic to religion) or just sapping your time and energy more than it needs to.


Sure. That sounds like the definition of lust to me.

I don't get how running or voting in Babe Brawl implies any of those things though. That feels more like projecting feelings onto Vlado I'm not convinced he necessarily has by any stretch. Unless you're saying by posting those topics for that long you can't help but have those intrusive thoughts enter his head or something, but I wouldn't agree with that at all.

Like the thing to consider is that if you've already got the artist hat on going in you're not going to break by seeing more and more art or whatever. Like you can show me a bunch of cars, and I can vote on them based on how pretty they look or whatever-- I'm not going to start lusting after cars because I've seen 8 of them daily for 500 days in a row or whatever.

Many well adjusted people are like that with women, men, video game character's asses, or whatever else. If you're saying you can't be that way while reading a topic on a message board and potentially having attraction to these things in life, I'd call that a pretty closed minded way of thinking, cause I guarantee you plenty of people are just like that. I know a lot of them, myself being one.

Like if I were a hardcore Christian I would actually be pretty offended if you tried to say voting on which set of pics looks better was sinful according to that passage. Now granted I'm not, and there might be a better passage to cite which would shut me up but yeah, cite that one.


lust is bad and I think that passage is fairly clear on that point

If you wanna argue you're not lusting by voting on that, that is a slightly separate discussion, and kinda where Vlado and I went with it. You haven't singlehandedly kept the series going, nor doth thou protest too much, and you do strike me as the type to vote just for the sake of voting, so I would be slightly more inclined to believe that in your case than Vlado's.

It isn't lust to find someone cute, what the fuck dude


Rare footage of me agreeing with Ulti

Like I get what the passage is saying I think we just fundamentally differ (and pretty wildly at that) on what constitutes 'lust.' Acknowledging that a girl is attractive isn't the same as lusting for that girl at all. It can be the same but that's ultimately going to depend on the individual. I'm totally willing to believe Vlado on that as it creates a consistent character in my head with his posts on those kinda things, so I wouldn't find it right to judge him for it based on that particular bible passage at least.

I think Ronda has a lot more potential to learn how to be safe than Nia

Like Ronda the problem is mostly "you're doing unsafe moves" whereas Nia is "you're doing moves that could be safe but you're clumsy." The latter seems a lot harder to teach but I also feel like they might be hesitant to say Ronda shouldn't do certain things because it 'looks good' or whatever (particularly since Sasha has been doing unsafe moves for years and years and was never told not to) so both of them seem like they're going to likely just keep piling up injuries.

Lopen's Unofficial Analysis x4

Zelda v Squall
Yeah not really seeing this one as competitive anymore after seeing their performances leading up to this point and others in the bracket. Not even a little. Sorry Leonhart. Hope I'm wrong here.

Zelda with 58.88%

Fox v Aeris
This one on the other hand, Fox hasn't exactly convinced me he can beat Aeris with his previous round performances. To me this is less "can Fox do 10% better than Captain Toad" (not entirely a given, I think the Captain is being a bit underrated) and more "can Aeris do a bit more than 4% better than Jill Valentine did" and I'm thinking the answer to the second question is a yes-- Jill hasn't ever performed at a level that gives me a lot of confidence in her. Not a commanding yes or anything, but enough to squeak by.

Aeris with 51.88%

Geralt vs Bayonetta
I've been saying that Bayonetta's fiercest competition to get out of this division will be Pac-Man since Pac-Man wrecked Sans. Geralt vs Simon was a squeaker of a match, so I don't really see any reason to adjust that prediction aside from maybe more Simon RESPECT after Alucard tore it up today. But I mean Richter didn't do so hot either so I'm really not feeling the idea of Simon being super legitimate. Beating Ryu Hayabusa and I guess even Rosalina is worth more than nothing, but it's still not enough for me to buy either of these guys as being above Pac's level.

Bayonetta with 55.38%

Auron vs Sub-Zero
Magus and Sub-Zero being in about the same place makes sense to me. By extension, Sub-Zero and Vincent being in about the same place makes sense to me. Auron continues to walk through this division without too much issue.

Auron with 56.57%

Well to be clear, among the general public? Probably not.

On board 8? Absolutely. We're all nerds who like to rank things here. It doesn't really have to be more complicated than that. Like a lot of the pictures in those topics are pretty tasteful and not the type you'd "lust after" anyway. Plenty aren't all that tasteful either, mind you-- just saying the idea that any person who runs that contest or votes in them is a sinner or whatever is a closed minded way of thinking, even considering it from the lens of Christianity.

it's like how it's stupid to deny that there's a sexual element to the dead or alive xtreme series and that people don't just play the games for the amazing beach volleyball physics, even though they obviously aren't straight-up porn either.


I'm not denying there's a sexual element to it I'm just saying it doesn't have to be the equivalent of lusting over women or whatever that bible passage is condemning.

Like what you're doing is the equivalent to saying no one could possibly play Dead or Alive games because they enjoy the gameplay more than me saying there's no sexual element in the Dead or Alive games.

I guess what I'm saying is you can appreciate something being attractive without lusting over it. Same way you can appreciate good art, music, books, video game characters, or whatever else board 8 wants to rank on any given day.
