37 vote gain....it looks like Crono's settling into his pace from last year now, after that surprising board vote. Of course, last year's pace isn't good enough.



It can be. Last year wasn't.. normal trends.

Another 37 vote gain for Crono. Is he now surpassing his gains from last year?

About equal for the last 10 minutes. The next 2007 update was a big one so I wouldn't expect Crono to match it.

It's interesting also that we're already 652 votes behind last year's pace in votals. Of course, that match had Link, but it's still notable.

KT did a study of one hour I didn't rally for WCC that he got 30 less votes per update then when I was rallying him.

Didn't the main place you were rallying at threaten to ban you if you rallied again? That was the only one where you were getting thousands of hits...and only managed thirty votes an hour off of ONE small sample that was based on WCC. I really don't think you'll have such success elsewhere.....

so much for post 337, now I think Crono can actually hold onto this one.

Vincent with the board vote what

Crono's got another hour to pad this - he better not waste it.

Place I'm rallying now isn't MMO Champion, since I doubt they even know who crono is. I'm not getting nearly as many hits, but enough hits to get a few votes an update, which turns into many if you count every single update of the day.

Assuming all this whining of rallying is even true (it isn't; people will always just vote for who they want), it makes zero difference. This reminds me of all the geniuses who bought into Romero's BS following that Kefka/Vercetti match. Albion having no life outside the internet means an extra 20 or so votes for a character. Woohoo.

By the way, the word "gullible" is not listed in any dictionary. You can look it up yourself.

then he screws that character over to make me look foolish

Vincent's best time on Crono last year wasn't even the day- it was the late night, the same time Zack went crazy on Mario last night. How Crono managed to go from a 56% first hour to a 41% 6th hour just astounds me.

trannyscience (#141)
I like how Crono fans scream bloody murder about Mario cheating and then condone rallying woo

though I guess these are newer fans who weren't around for the old ones




Vote stuffing, and Admin cheating are not the same as rallying. Rallying is dirty tactics, but not illegal. Mario however has his 3 biggest wins ever (Cloud, and Crono 1 and 2) with blatant vote stuffing, and the infamous Admin cheating. So yeah, I don't condone rallying, but it is not actual cheating (thought it shoudl be.

Thirty votes an hour insinuates 2.5 votes an update. You're not getting nearly as many hits.

Granted, a vote's a vote, but you're not that important.

Before CT DS, I really doubt many pokemon fans are into a 14 year old RPG. I'm sure alot of them weren't even ALIVE YET when CT came out.

Yikes, a bad update for Crono there. It was....a bad update for him last year too!

2007: 149, 79, 74, 51, 37, 39, 65, 13
2008: 52, 52, 27, 67, 34, 37, 72, 8

Next update last year was a 49 vote gain.

30 votes an hour x 24 hours = 720 votes

That can make or break a match.

So yeah, I don't condone rallying, but it is not actual cheating (thought it shoudl be.

Mario's wins in those matches weren't all vote stuffing - Planet GameCube and Super Mario Sunshine was big for the Cloud match; Crono's the one who had some crazy stuffing going on in that first match; and whatever you want to call what happened in the last few hours of the poll, Mario was ahead when the match was over - that extra five minutes just added to his lead
