I think if i had a choice going into this, it would be:

Stanley
Panzerfaust
Issac
Eliza
Beowulf
Minette
Aeon
Annie

I think the only characters i'm gonna say are out next round are Panzerfaust and Aeon. Everyone else, i could see being in at this point.

They don't need to - they never made a secret out of it. It lists 15,874 backers on the IndieGogo page. Thus, there are 15,874 votes.

At most, not necessarily all votes were actually used. Also, technically it's triple that since everyone could vote thrice.

 

[7Th]

First place isn't that far above them, either.

Right now I think the Top 4 is entirely in the air.

Yes! Now it really is about creating the best top 4 combination for Annie/Eliza to not lose to Beowulf or Stanley.

 

[sandman64]

When her competition includes a shark scientist, an Egyptian diva, and an otaku time goddess, nothing is out of place.

I think we can agree that not all 15,874 voted. Has to be way smaller. The max potential is 15,874 + the people who donated after indiegogo. I also think that the votes will be less and less every week.

Personally (and you can quote me on this after it's all over ) I think that Eliza is the #1 character at the moment.

Now as people lose their favorites and shift their votes around, I wonder how it will all pan out.

 

[Mista Koo]

Better than what I could do quickly. XD

Quickly is a vague word, I sketched it by hand and now I'm vectorizing it :3

Well then, better than with what I can do? XP

I actually might do a little art myself, since its actually been a while. I'll go with Annie demonstrating her powers. ^^

 

[Dreavus]

Marie is dead! Long live [anyone else]!

Just saw the results, I have no idea how Stanley made it. Was completely expecting Feng to stick around in his place.

Also, everyone in my original voting pool is gone except for Panzerfaust, AS IT SHOULD BE. The question now is do I bring back Isaac (voted for him round 1) or go with Beowulf this time?

Don't worry, even the Stanley voters (like me) are in shock. The good kind.

 

[wildfire]

Certainly will make it​

Annie
Beowulf
Eliza
Isaac
Venus

I expect atleast one from each bracket​

1 - Panzerfaust OR B. Dahlia OR Feng
2 - Minette OR Aeon OR Brain Drain OR Stanley

I suspect bracket 1 would have two characters chosen instead of bracket 2.

Definitely won't get in​

Marie
Molly
Scythana
Umbrella

I shouldn't have put Venus in the "certainly will make" it list. I had my doubts about her.

I overestimated the chances of Dahilia, Feng and Venus in general.


Overall now I have a better idea of who will make the top 4.

Mostly likely
Aeon
Annie
Eliza
Isaac

Biggest threat
Beowolf


The tears are flowing all over the net. Best comment I came across so far on another site.

EDIT: actually no im gonna stop posting while i am pissed off. I am very liable to call everybody in here a faggot right now

 

[Moonlight]

Oh man, the salt is delicious. There are people swearing off the game entirely on Tumblr.

4chan hasn't been that dramatic so far, which saddens me

 

[Kusagari]

I've seen a lot of people raging at Stanley.

The salt levels if he wins...oh man.

He's the mysterious #1.

 

[Sandfox]

My votes made it through again lol

 

[wildfire]

I feel like Stanley is probably dominating the people who aren't that invested in fighting games or Skullgirls itself.

And I'm not hating on him for that, I'm voting for him with Eliza next round, but I think he's cleaning up among the "normals."

You keep saying this. Have you ever visited Event Hubs or Shoryuken since the characters have been revealed?

Let me guess: 4chan?

Shoryuken

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

I'd be okay with Stanley only for the tears

 

[Troubled Bat]

My votes made it through again lol

Who are your votes?

 

[Sandfox]

Who are your votes?

Aeon
Annie
Minette

 

[Kusagari]

Does Shoryuken love Stanley?

I figure they wouldn't because he has literally no real move set description. He's basically the ultimate going off design character in this.

 

[Troubled Bat]

Aeon
Annie
Minette

Oh, awesome. Keep on voting! XP

The appropriate tag on Tumblr.

EDIT:

...hahaha.

People have no taste.
I’m just livid over this Skullgirls poll.

Look at these candidates. Pick 4 favorites.
http://www.labzerogames.com/3rdcharacter/

I picked Marie (the best), Roxie, Isaac, and had several others I’d be okay with making it.

ALL of them except for Isaac have been eliminated. My two most hated, Stanley and Eliza, are still in.
Goddamnit, this is what I get for contributing to something. I get to watch people destroy it before it’s even made. Marie had a vacuum cleaner MADE OF BONES, and gameplay inspired by Sonson from MvC2! You pick a hemophiliac who only has a chance after being savagely beaten and a Street Sharks knockoff!?

 

[7Th]

DON'T GIVE UP NOW!

This is where the real battle starts! Stanley getting into the top 4 is good for Annie's chances, anyway! Annie, Wulf, Stanley and Issac is the best case scenario for Annie!

 

[Dram]

Poor Feng

I saw a Black Egret fucking Parasoul while going through it so be careful when browsing :V

 

[Troubled Bat]

I'm voting Annie and Aeon! It means less votes for those characters.

 

[wildfire]

Your assessment of the character is correct and that's what trips you up.


You acknowledge how Minette gets by on her feminine cutesy looks. But you have zero clue how Stanley gets by on masculine looks. When he was first revealed he received the biggest hype on those sites. Regardless he won't make top 4.

I think we can agree that not all 15,874 voted. Has to be way smaller. The max potential is 15,874 + the people who donated after indiegogo. I also think that the votes will be less and less every week.

More significant is that people can buy votes. So there can be multiple votes from one person. The difficulty with finding statistical significance is primarily not knowing how many people are voting (though given the statistical trends of the US and voting, it's probably somewhere between %40-%50).

Still, the fact that votes can be purchased allows for a lot of skewing in the vote.

Again, depending on the average statistical variance of %3-%7, if #1 is fairly far ahead, there's not really much point in voting at all. Though since we have basically no information (other than that there is a potential 16,000 voting pool), everyone should vote.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Vote Beowulf/Issac guys





do it










so Annie wins

Keep in mind Ravi mentioned a lot of people put in multiple $1 donations but made the mistake of using the same email address.

Certainly, though there are probably more than a few who also made junk accounts to get multiple votes.

well, fuck this game I’m done playing Skullgirls

The second round won't bring back the good characters that have been eliminated, smartass.

None of my picks made it past the second round…..I don’t mean to sound arrogant, but I feel like they got cheated out by all the “Fan Bait” characters….

>wanting male characters in SkullGIRLS

>2013

Go back to Street Fighter, dudebros.

>Umbrella didn’t make it

Annie fans, please make sure Beowulf isn’t the only male in the top 4. Keep voting Annie, but try to get Issac or Stanley into it. Voting for your favorites just won’t cut it this time. We gotta make sure Wulf’s fanbase is split. We have to stand together to terminate the dick menace; we have to divide their votes and crush them with Annie’s sword. If both Wulf and Issac get to the top 4, neither is winning. We all know this. However, if Wulf is the only male, he may take Annie’s righteous spot in the game. It’s hard, but it must be done: we CAN’T LET WULF TAKE THIS FROM US.

I have no idea how to navigate Tumblr, I find pictures and ... no comments.

 

[Troubled Bat]

Wow, I was scrolling down on the tumblr rants. And found my girlfriends post.

"Utterly upset that Venus didn't make the Top 8. #Fuck Minette #Not Sorry"

T-T Oh, well, good thing I had made her happy again. C:

 

[The Grim Heaper]

This one doesn't seem salty in the slightest, just someone updating their 4 picks. Unless there was a comment with it?

[Dachande]

I'm seeing loads of pictures too, nothing really in the way of comments. But it let me find this, so...

 

[SAB CA]

No Engineer, No Mecha Pilot... time to do Support Art for the Science Shark!!

I actually think having one of the better gameplay descriptions on the site helps him out a lot. He'll combine Technology (PROTON CANNON!), a love of sports, and SHARK ATTACKS all into one character.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

Best two.

It was the dustbin that got me, but yeah, I'll call that light relief, an oasis in the saltmire.

Panzerfaust(en) - pet name) is welcome as well!

Spoiler

I like how Stanley keeps one hand in his pocket while shooting.
