suppose a cpu lvl 9 round robin



with the rules:
  • 5 stocks
  • no items
  • every character plays every character except himself
  • for each match-up, 3 games are played: one on DL, one on Congo, and one on Hyrule
  • JV x-stock is the same as an x-stock (e.g. JV 2 stock = 2 stock)
  • pausing = lose the stock
  • pause again = kicked from the venue
  • don't taunt too much
  • NO DRUGS
  • 15 min TIMER

1. who'd win the most matches?
2. who'd lose the most matches?
3. who'd have the best overall stock count?
4. who'd have the worst ^ ?

(e.g. winning by a 3-stock and then getting 2-stock'd means your stock count is +1)


place your excited bets!!


whoever gets half of those questions right, i'll give you a prize


whoever gets ALL the questions right... i'll give you a special prize

1. Link
2. Kirby
3. Link
4. Kirby

matching even and odd answers, yolo. was kind of tempted to say Falcon for 1 and 3 but whatever

edit 2: actually yeah I'll change to

1. Falcon
2. Kirby
3. Falcon
4. Kirby

edit 3: actually I'll change to

1. Falcon
2. Ness
3. Falcon
4. Ness

DAILY STREAM!?
The problem is that 80% of it was already done by March 2013.
There are 10 sets left: Samus vs Luigi/Mario/DK; Yoshi vs Luigi/Mario/DK; Kirby vs Luigi/Mario/DK; and DK vs Mario.

edit: I could stream nao if you want (have no clue how to do it though)

I've already done this lol. When I had surgery on my foot I just set it up on emulator while I watched TV and let them play. round Robin plus playoffs at the end. myou rules were a bit different though in terms of stages so you might get different results.

1 & 3 link/falcon
2 & 4 kirby/dk

sk was doing so well until his 3rd guess

oh prizes are involved guess I should make real picks.

1 link
2 dk
3 link
4 kirby

I'll change back to my second guess :troll:

why is everyone putting different things between 1+3 and 2+4? Isn't it likely that they'll be the same?

very. I only switched up kirby dk for the last one because kirby will lose by lots on hyrule. He rocks on the left side and just dies a lot

I have no idea why I did that lol. I also don't know why I put jigglypuff for losing the most matches. She won't get the stupid cpu not using up b after first try recovering since she has multiple jumps and she's pretty good with that down smash. So I'm propably not going to win the special prize :c

You get bedridden and to occupy time you watch TV? Ew, you probably aged 10 years right then.


The Star King is such a sneaky basterd. He edited his official guesses but didn't erase the old ones. Let me tell you something kid, this is serious business and you get no bragging rights because you guessed right once.


UPDATES
  • Yoshi has decided he'll go baby blue for the remaining matches
  • DK doesn't think port rotation is fair; he wants to be 1P every time
  • DK and Yoshi perpetually down-b'd and DJC dair'd. Had it not been for the wind, that could've been the first TIME OUT
  • Mario told me Fox was excessively taunt cancelling throughout all his sets "while I wasn't looking"
  • Kirby shareholders are having an extraordinary meeting at the moment due to circumstances
  • Pikachu thinks slow and steady wins the race (it's not a race tho)
  • 6 sets to go.

One time i put 99 stocks on and just had a non-cpu just stand on dreamland doing nothing against a level 9 fox, and the fox SD'd over 30+ times before it won.

I think we all know what this means --




Bring back Hyrule.

The results are here at last.
But first, an explanation: I will not provide you with videos because I don't want anyone to think they can begin to understand what went on in this round robin. Every match was as exciting as the final moments of Hbox vs Armada at Genesis 2 (boo!! melee references), so videos wouldn't do it justice. You had to be there.

Each character played 3 games against 11 other characters, 33 games total.
All in all, 198 games were played. The detailed data is linked at the end of this post.



1. Who won the most matches?




Captain Douglas Falcon. He's so fast he'll make you dizzy.
Falcon won 27 games out of 33. Fox won 26.

Gamblers who got this one right: Star King and bowl

  
  




2. Who lost the most matches?



Kirby is so dumb you guys.

At the last minute Kirby sucked so much he managed to make it to the bottom faster than no one ever could.
Kirby lost 27 matches.

Gamblers who got this one right: Metacopolys







3. Who had the best stock balance?



That's right. This round robin witnessed massive sodomy by the kid.
Ness had a positive 42 stock balance, while winning only 24 games. Fox had a +39, and Falcon a +37

Gamblers who got this one right: Not only no one got this right, but several people gambled Ness would either have the worst stock balance or lose the most matches. You guys know nothing about the current meta, clearly.





4. Who had the worst stock balance?


Kirby once again.
I couldn't believe my own numbers. Puff was a shoo-in in this category.
Kirby had a negative 48 stock balance. Second place goes to Puff, who had a -46.

Gamblers who got this one right: Metacopolys






Final Score / Table of guesses




Congratulations to Metacopolys!

You are eligible for the normal prize. All your posts in this thread will be liked, thus granting you 2-weeks free of DS problems when playing online. Moreover, word is out that Smashboards Likes will soon become valuable in the stock market, and likes by me in this thread will be on the rise. (If Sangoku denies his, that's because he's just a mod whose rank doesn't grant one any special info). You may also request I make a gif of something smash related, or something.






Oh, and we can't forget about this
