We already know that pictures make a difference even for well-known entrants like Kefka. It makes sense they'd have a larger impact for years, where people aren't sure exactly when games came out and if they don't see the box shot in the rotation they won't factor in to their decision. And that's exactly what happened.

just seeing this. my browser doesn't even show the first picture of 2001 and 1997 doesn't have 007 or MK64?

forget this contest. I am definitely in contention but I think it's more than that.

So that's not just me then. What a disaster.


You guys clicked the link in the Contest Pics topic for 1997l which loaded as blank, so your browsers think they already know what the link point to and when it got replaced with the actual picture your browser tried to save time by not loading it. If you do Control + F5 you'll clear the cache and force the actual picture to come up. Same thing happened to me.

Weird situation but there's no worries about your average voter not seeing any of today's 4 pictures.

The movie Contests we've done on the boards always come down to Lord of the Rings winning so I wouldn't count out those years, but aside from that I'd expect the 90s to dominate just like in games. I can't see anything from the 70s or 80s making it to the final rounds. And yeah 1994 would be in the 1998 position.

Anyway, great episode as always, guys. I keep thinking we should do a "Contest Retrospective" show at some point to talk about old contests since the gaps between contests are so large nowadays. I'm thinking about doing a "Re-predict old contests in 2016" running series once this contest wraps up, too. Might be fun.

I like both these ideas quite a bit. Actually as I was inputting the 2015 and 2013 and GotD results for lol x-stats I kept saying to myself "wait how did THAT happen?" and was thinking about doing a "results that would flip in 2017" thread as a way of prepping for this years bracket, but didn't end up having time for it.

I'll need a couple month break from podcasts after next week but after that some kind of Retrospective get together would be interesting I think.

I voted for Bronze Match plus 2017/1998 on The Show but Best Month of 1998 is an interesting idea, kind of gets us the Pokemon/Ocarina showdown while staying more in this format. There's not room for every month in the poll so maybe something like top ten months, best 3 games per month which would get us:

Jan - Final Fantasy Tactics/Resident Evil 2/Panzer Dragoon Saga
Feb - Xenogears/Battlezone/Star Wars: Rebellion
Mar - StarCraft/1080 Snowboarding/Parasite Eve
May - Gran Turismo/Unreal/Einhänder
Jun - Banjo-Kazooie/X-Men vs. Street Fighter/Wetrix
Jul - F-Zero X/Star Ocean 2/Iggy's Reckin' Balls
Sept - Pokemon RB/Metal Gear Solid/Fallout 2
Oct - Grim Fandango/Turok 2/Crash Bandicoot 3
Nov - Ocarina of Time/Half-Life/Baldur's Gate
Dec - Star Wars: Rogue Squadron/Mario Party/Suikoden II

Would be a nice showcase of depth for the champ on its victory lap.

Buckle your seatbelts Board 8, you're in for a ride!

http://board8.speedrunwiki.com/interviews/theshow/20170518-TheShowEP05.mp3

This week we were joined by super-guest KP and I thought it resulted in the funnest Show of the year. Things ran a little longer than I expected because of frequent trips down memory lane, but they were so enjoyable that I'm sure any Contest veteran will really appreciate them. Eventually we got down to serious business, such as

* The Return of our MVP Guest, KamikazePotato
* An Oracle celebration & heaping praise on SB (kind of)
* Did 1995 suffer the worst picture disadvantage ever in R2?
* Detailed breakdown of all R2/R3 action, including...
** 2000's disastrous match pic versus 1996, 2001's narrow defeat of CT and the '95 gang, '96s epic collapse versus 1997
* Stars and Turds of R2/R3 and preview of the Final Four and Championship
* fun ideas for bonus polls after the main bracket is complete

Here's the official/updated Show bracket if you want to follow along as you listen:
7X8ESIb
