I imagine it is all relative. Setting every song to minimum is probably the same as setting every song to maximum.

Ezio is also looks better now. He just fell a lot instead of completely collapsing.

Doubling the votes from registered users has a minor effect on the overall result. It usually causes a difference of less than 1 percentage point.

Everyone with a score of 85 or lower got the match wrong.

Everyone in the Top 140 sided with Link. 90% of the Top 1309 brackets (score of 239 or better) had Link winning.

I imagine we'll the opposite of this if Zelda hangs on today.

I think it was Gen 4 where Toxic damage caps at 15/16. If I had to guess, the later gens probably do the same thing. As for Toxic damage in Gen 3 or earlier, I don't know if it caps or not. It's possible that it caps in all gens but I'm not sure.

The biggest wildcard to me is Skyward Sword. On one hand, nobody really seems to like it, but it is a 3D Zelda game, so there has to be a limit to low it can go right?

This topic is for Losers Round 3 predictions only.
Do not submit a prediction for a match until both characters in a match have fully completed their previous match.

The Challenge

For each match in the GameFAQs Character Battle X Contest (referred herein as "CBX"), you need to pick a winner and predict the percentage of the vote they will receive. New participants will always be accepted throughout the contest (but please indicate that you are new and make a minimum of three picks).

Post your predictions in this topic, one prediction per line. Your predictions must start with the name of your winner and end with your predicted percentage. Examples:

Link with 51.82%
Link 52.44%
Link over Cloud with 53.93%
Link - 53.54%

Please use one of these formats, and always remember to include the % sign. Predictions are entered into our database by a script, which may miss your predictions if you use some other weird format or forget to include the % sign.

The Scoring

For each match you will earn points based on how close your guess was to the actual outcome. Scoring is cumulative and the winner of the CBX Oracle Challenge will be the person with the most points at the end of the final match! For each match you can earn anywhere from 0 and 50 points. The scoring system works as follows:

Correctly choosing the winner earns you 50-x points.
Incorrectly choosing the winner earns you 45-x points.
(Where x is the difference between your guess and the character's actual final percentage.)

Example:

Your guess: Cloud with 55%
My guess: Link with 55%
Actual result: Link 60%, Cloud 40%
Your score: 45 - (55-40) = 30 points
My score: 50 - (60-55) = 45 points

The Rules

It is necessary to have a few rules to keep the challenge running smoothly. Here they are:

1) A valid entry consists of a clear pick and prediction (i.e. Link with 77.77%). The prediction must be greater than or equal to 50.00%.
2) Your prediction does not need to be different from everybody else's. However, intentional and continuous prediction mimicry will NOT be allowed.
3) All predictions must be made before the usual start time of that match's poll (at exactly 12:00 AM GMT/UTC). Predictions submitted after this time will NOT be counted. No predictions will be accepted after the poll has started, regardless of the start time.
4) You may change your prediction for any match at any time, subject to the other rules.
5) You may NOT delete any post in a prediction topic (if you do, please post immediately after to explain the deletion). This is to prevent abuse of the above rules and to reduce confusion.
6) If you have made a mistake with any of your predictions, please don't edit or delete your post. Simply make another post with your corrected predictions (subject to the above rules).
7) If you post with an alt, you must clearly state the name of your main account.
8) You may predict matches for future divisions/rounds in advance if you need to. Please tell me beforehand in the Discussion Topic so we can arrange this.
9) I reserve the right to disqualify a pick for any justifiable reason.

Team Challenge

The popular Team Challenge is back again! If you want to be in a team, head to the sign-up topic and confirm your team before the first matches of the contest begin. Once the first matches begin, you're out of luck if you want to be in the Team Challenge. If you are in a team, this is how it's gonna work:

1. Make just one prediction per match subject to the rules above - it counts for the Oracle Challenge and the Oracle Team Challenge!
2. Your team score for the day is equal to both team members' scores added together.
3. If one player misses a prediction, the team will get either (partner's score * 2) or (partner's score + average score for the day), whichever is lower. This is to keep teams from being eliminated by one missed prediction, and this ONLY applies to the team scores.

Honestly, the bigger question should be why we even hold these contests when we all know its just gonna be OLD GAME GOOD NEW GAME BAD, since the only people left on this site are 40 year olds who never played a video game after 2006.

Now this is not true. We played BotW and Zelda is now beasting because of it. >_>

Tails also got blown up by Luigi to the point where it was likely SFF involved. It is possible that this is hiding Master Chief, Nathan Drake and Tails being worse than expected.

In the US data breach lawsuits frequently end up with settlements of less than $1 per person. Assuming the support tickets were only from people who bought the $200 special edition and submitted within the first day or so, that's not very many people. Bethesda might take a hit from this but it won't be a big one.

Europe has laws with a bit more teeth regarding personal information. Bethesda might actually be in trouble there.

Excluding Beast units, Haar is the most popular character who isn't in the game going by CYL2 rankings. This is true even without combining his votes from FE9 and FE10.

Just a heads up that in a few days conditional picks will be accepted for Battle 145 and 146 (and later on 149 and 150). The reason for this is the characters for these matches will not be decided until just before the battles start.

When making a conditional prediction, you just need to make it clear what you are trying to do. You don't need to follow this format exactly.

If Crono wins Battle 143:
Cloud - 57.00%
If Pikachu wins Battle 143:
Cloud - 55.00%

If Snake wins Battle 144:
Zelda - 51.00%
If Samus wins Battle 144:
Samus - 54.00%

If you don't put a condition on your prediction, it will be used regardless of which character wins the previous match.

I voted for Samus in the hopes she would win so we could finally stop talking about the 2005 match

I don't even care about Samus that much

I don't think Samus necessarily needs the win here. If she can roughly maintain the current result, I think the match is open to serious discussion for the first time in over a decade. 145 people in the Guru had Mario vs Samus as this battle and 139 sided with Mario. I think Samus will have much higher than 4% support if there's a next time.

Tifa isn't really that much stronger than she was in the past. Sephiroth has just tanked pretty hard over the years. He is projected to lose to Luigi and Mega Man X as well.

So why isn't Mario SFFing Samus this time around despite Odyssey behind him? Samus has had literally zero reason to boost.

Based on Tifa vs Sephiroth, Mario is still SFFing Samus. It just isn't nearly as bad as it was in 2005. It seems like users just aren't as willing to fall in line as they used to. While Link still put the hurt on Ganondorf, it wasn't anything like their 2004 match.
