I already said that this week's votes were looking at the whole picture. If I'd based this week's votes solely on my previous ballot and this past week's results, Chrono Trigger wouldn't have even been second, but I reevaluated and realized I'd been shortchanging it a bit. Doesn't change the fact that Chrono Trigger has fewer top-tier opponents.
An evaluation of the top ten from my ballot this past week, including upcoming opponents so as to explain why others theoretically should be passing CT in coming weeks. All "borderline" games are listed under the higher of the tiers they're between.
Second-tier opponents: RBY: Link's Awakening (borderline) CT: Wind Waker, SotN, SMRPG, TTYD SM64: FFVIII, Tales of Symphonia RE4: Aria of Sorrow, Wind Waker, MK64 (next week) SMB3: Metroid Prime, SotN, Xenogears (borderline) FFX: Twilight Princess, Okami FFIX: Link's Awakening (borderline), Xenogears (borderline), MK64, FFVIII, MMX, FFT, Assassin's Creed II, Goldeneye 007 (this week, and yes, I realize that its actual record is atrocious, but all of its losses are to top- and second-tier opponents and it was top 25 pre-season, so this is actually justifiable), BioShock (next week) Galaxy: DKC (borderline), Persona 4, Wind Waker, Paper Mario (this week), MGS2 (next week) Melee: Goldeneye 007, Twilight Princess (this week), SMRPG (next week) SMW: SotN, FE9, FE7
Third-tier opponents: RBY: KotOR (borderline), B/W, TWEWY CT: Mother 3, Devil May Cry SM64: Chrono Cross RE4: TWEWY, Devil May Cry 3, Chrono Cross (this week) SMB3: none FFX: Kirby 64, Kingdom Hearts (borderline), Grim Fandango (next week) FFIX: Sunshine (another one that has been losing to one top-tier after another) Galaxy: B/W, Kingdom Hearts (borderline) Melee: Smash SMW: none
Okay, SMW's already a little lacking and is set to drop with a loss to #1, so better add one more that should be in the top 10 for the next couple of weeks.
Link to the Past First-tier: DKC2, FFVI, CT (loss), Super Metroid (this week, although personally I think this one should be second-tier. Then again, I let FFVII count as a top-tier win for SMB3 even though it hasn't beaten a single top-tier game and only two second-tier games, one of which is 3-9 Goldeneye, so compared to that, Super Metroid's golden!) Second-tier: Paper Mario (next week) Third-tier: Mother 3, Sunshine, KotOR (borderline)

From: TsunamiXXVIII | #047 I already said that this week's votes were looking at the whole picture. If I'd based this week's votes solely on my previous ballot and this past week's results, Chrono Trigger wouldn't have even been second, but I reevaluated and realized I'd been shortchanging it a bit. Doesn't change the fact that Chrono Trigger has fewer top-tier opponents.
If you're looking at the whole picture, then you're stupid to drop CT out of #1. CT's SoS is 6th overall, and the only game in the top 5 with a better SoS is Mario 3 (not R/B/Y, mind you. R/B/Y's faced more creampuffs than CT has in KOTOR (ranking this game as third tier is laughable), GTA: SA, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Gears of War 1, and Cave Story, a.k.a HALF OF ITS SCHEDULE as opposed to CT only facing three games that are .500 or worse, and yet we want to drop CT because it's going to face a couple of sub-par games the next two weeks).
But you're not taking into account how badly CT has beaten its opponents. You only want to look at the face value and not at the margin of victory. You conveniently ignore that R/B/Y needed OT to beat Star Fox 64 (who is not a top tier opponent; top tier opponents don't lose to SoulCalibur II and Mega Man X, so you're already exaggerating R/B/Y's case) and for some reason you want to ignore the fact that CT has not had a close match all season, despite facing two top 5 caliber games. I would argue FFVI and Galaxy 2 are not top tier opponents either. They're certainly not top 10 quality games in this contest. Yes, R/B/Y nearly doubling them both is pretty impressive, but I'd argue 9 vote wins over Mario 3 and LTTP are more impressive.
There's a reason everyone who votes in the top 25 thinks CT is #1 except for you, and it's not because you have some brilliant insight. At this point, it seems to be more like you're just being spiteful and stubborn toward CT for whatever the reason and refusing to acknowledge its strength, especially since you already seem to be bragging about how you're looking forward to dropping it out of your top 5 completely this week.
--
"I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!"
So, ignoring borderline, RBY has no second tier opponent and just two third tier opponents. So you're giving it the edge based on 4 top tier opponents (and SMW which it hasn't even played yet, wtf) against CT's more evenly distributed schedule?
Still think you're crazy.
