And
to set the record straight, for Hogger and Cube, I had just as much
opposition from people since I had already done in a couple times by
that point. Didn't seem to matter especially with how Hogger cut 800
votes in an hour and a half after I got up and started to keep that
topic bumped. Try 800 votes in five hours and Hogger was already making a comeback before you started rallying. If you're going to lie do some research. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: Halo > Diablo II Points: 65/88 |

From: charmander6000 | #401 I didn't lie, maybe I remembered a bit differently (though it was an hour and a half), but just look at the graph. At that time hogger started to get crazy spikes. --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/blue/Albion+Hero.png http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/RyanSaotome/threesome.gif |

I
really wasn't just being funny when I said Halo comes into the ASV in
fourth and blows through everyone. Seems like a good call. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

Last post of the night. You said you started at 10:30, Hogger has already cut the lead by almost 100 by then (this is the DSV), in 1.5 hours he breaks even with Laharl, which then he proceeded to stall with Ramza at 100 votes before taking the lead about two hours after he took it over Laharl. ASV goes to Hogger as expected, but Ramza makes a comeback against during the second night vote as expect again. Nothing wrong with the trends. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: Halo > Diablo II Points: 65/88 |

Jeez, KotoR might be leading by 2:20, and it's bound to be way better in Europe than Halo. ...this could get very interesting. --- http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j69/War13104/CenaJFrog.gif hey look i'm war and i'm stupid - WVI |

KOTOR's
stalling D2 as well - stir in an eventual dominant lead over Halo and
being within arm's reach of D2 for what we will ALL presume is a day
vote to be reckoned with and, well, I think we can say it's got 1st all

Wow, Halo's really dying here. The ASV should
be enough to save it, but Halo doesn't have much of a morning vote, so
KOTOR essentially has 12 hours of good time to gain here, which is
enough to put the result in doubt. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

So
uhh...regardless, this is now making it every game other than Kingdom
Hearts from the Starcraft portion of 2004 so-far that has pretty much
bombed. This is looking really bad for Wind Waker. --- http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j69/War13104/CenaJFrog.gif hey look i'm war and i'm stupid - WVI |

From: transience | #414 Second biggest, it got a 35% earlier. But yeah, this is good to see how much my rallying matters. I've always wondered realisticly how much of an impact it made myself, since I can't see direct results. --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/blue/Albion+Hero.png http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/RyanSaotome/threesome.gif |

Just
listen to KH here guys. Especially you charmander :) Everyone knows
you're right right, and the one nutcase you're arguing with will never
get it. You don't need to go back and forth with him. Funny to see Halo's %age just melting away here. Not surprising though. I have Diablo going to round 3 and right now I'm thinking that's looking good, although Halo and Wind Waker are still contenders for that; Halo could be hurt by Star Wars more than I'm thinking, and maybe Wind Waker doesn't get whalloped that bad by SSBM. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I
think SSBM is going to flatten Wind Waker tomorrow, much worse than it
would have had they met in 2004. I figure the natural strength gap
between them nowadays is probably about the distance between RBY and
MM, and SSBM will go well above that with SFF. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

Boxing forum Admin telling me you had been instantly banned or something right after I sent in a notice about you <3 That's the other thing - if he were rallying and it really meant something and he really wanted the entrant to win, why would he tell a bunch of users that could have the potential to muck it up? The answer is that it doesn't mean anything outside of Albion trying to garner attention for himself. --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

I have a hard time seeing a well-known Zelda fold Before the contest, I would have told you that the Zelda name is important - extremely so - but that against well-known, well-liked games, you need to have a certain amount of likability and respect to back that up. As far as I'm concerned, Wind Waker has a sufficient amount of neither. ...then FF6/LA happened. So now I'm just perplexed! --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

The
only thing I'll ask about Albion "rallying" nowadays: will you please
link to the actual topic you make instead of the front page of MMO?
I've only seen one or maybe two of your topics you talk about there,
and I'm starting to believe you're not doing anything more than just
talking about rallying now. --- Prototype Shorthand, do you speak it?! |
MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 4/28/2009 11:12:55 PM | message detail |
From: HaRRicH | #431 All I do is keep a topic bumped on MMO-Champion. Its not there at the moment (yet another one of my alts was banned). --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/blue/Albion+Hero.png http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/RyanSaotome/threesome.gif |
red sox 777 | Posted 4/28/2009 11:13:22 PM | message detail |
I'm
increasingly coming to think that the theorized fanbase that will vote
for Zelda over anything is really small, or at least is really small
now. Zelda 1 and LA have legit strength- Zelda 1 at least I would not
hesitate to take to smash Wind Waker. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

Yes, they are both about waking up. Only an overly literal fool would put the Wind Waker in the same vote as Link's Awakening. --- I'm the most important member of GAMEFAQs, and they didn't even reserve an account for me!?!? |

VC had strength in 2004 no doubt; the Melee match proves that. But it's also pretty clearly fallen off a long way since then. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

See, I said vote which rhymes with boat. Revel in my wit. I was referring to the fact that the Wind Waker will be much weaker, by the way. --- I'm the most important member of GAMEFAQs, and they didn't even reserve an account for me!?!? |

Whether Hogger was Albion or not is irrelevant. Ramza had NO

only one rallying for Hogger. He's a mini fad in the WoW. Fire Emblem for second place tomorrow, btw. BELIEVE. --- .,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,. Now Playing: Etrian Odyssey 2, Lunar 2, Devil May Cry 3 |
