The
site has less traffic. I'm pretty sure that's the main reason anyways.
Some sites are gaining some popularity due to their walkthroughs having
pictures and videos and stuff. There's probably also a small amount of
people who genuinely don't care about the contests or hate that two
main series dominate the whole thing too. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |

We got through about 4 topics today- don't think we've managed that in a 24-hour period for a long time. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |

From: FlaireCarron | #202 It is a good thing I hardly care and do not frequent this site much. Mass Effect is more or less my fix much. --- A bride?! Roughly translated, it means your life is over! A bride is a woman that's about to be married || I think my definition is more accurate. |

It
just is. 1v1s just feel more epic. In the same way, any 12-hour match
is going to have a very hard time making my top 10 list. Plus, 4-ways
are not as legitimate- who knows who Samus's votes would have gone to. I don't think format should be taken into account on how epic a match is, if it's close everything gets thrown out from format to whether it was logical that the two entrants should be close. Who cares where Samus' votes would have gone, that's like not calling SMB3/LoZ great because SMW/SMB were in the poll. --- BOP Results: http://charmander6000.webs.com/GotD%20BOP.xls GotD Bracket: 268/352 Today's Winner: Final Fantasy X |

It
seems that FFX wants to get a more than dignified finale, 200 barrier
about to be broken, it will not make a comeback but considering how
things turned out after Majora's took the lead, this score is really
respectable for FFX |
Jman_maximum | Posted 12/22/2010 8:39:18 PM | message detail |
FFX seems to be the stronger game naturaly if anything MM got a freaking youtube video with over 1000 views asking for votes, as well as the whole 4chan thing. i'm sure all the rallying must've gathered at least like a thousand votes...well, certainly more than what Majora will end up winning by |
Agent M | Posted 12/22/2010 8:39:40 PM | message detail |
FFX making a small push, but too little and to late I think. Really impressed that MM actually pulled it off. |

we DEFINITELY have to get to topic 1000 this match --- "I would totally audition to be Extha's best friend" - Mer ~*~TEAM RK-VOLTCH'D~*~ |

From: Jman_maximum | #212 Rallying doesn't work like that. Maybe 15% of those views voted DUE to the video...maybe. And The same applies to trollchan. --- Placeholder anti-capslock sig. |

From: Jman_maximum | #212 Those people would have voted for Zelda one way or the other. All that the video did was get them to the site. |
Zabie_W | Posted 12/22/2010 8:42:09 PM | message detail |
there were only 5 votes on the last update, 4 for FFX and 1 for Majora's. The moon is almost on your head, FFX |

We could get to 1000. It would just take a bit of extra spamming. Everyone commentating every update. --- Tofa7 - LoZ-LoD | Hardcore "Thank you, thank you, no applause necessary, just send money..." |

Heh, FFX just cannot penetrate the 200 vote barrier. Probably won't do it now, either. FFX now needs 73.7 per update to won. >_> --- http://i45.tinypic.com/2jdhsno.gif Dr. Football |

From: Hide_The_Butter | Posted: 12/23/2010 3:44:24 PM | #219 When it's finals time you see links to the contest being spread around in a lot of places. It's kind of awesome, until the complaining about previous results starts. A decent portion of the 4chan Majora thread last night was people complaining Melee lost to Brawl. --- Tofa7 - LoZ-LoD | Hardcore "Thank you, thank you, no applause necessary, just send money..." |

Soooo, shall we call this the match of the contest? Or is there a match that it's skipping my mind that was better than this? |
Evillordexdeath | Posted 12/22/2010 8:47:50 PM | message detail |
The
match really isn't moving at all at the moment, and with only about
three updates left, I'd say it's safe to call this one in favour of
Majora's Mask now. --- Hi,hi,hi, you come buying? You can sell, too. I, Mr. Saturn, can do all for you. |

Soooo, shall we call this the match of the contest? Or is there a match that it's skipping my mind that was better than this? Only Shadow of the Colossus' run and Melee/Brawl can really compare to this. I'd say it would be safe to say that. --- Hi,hi,hi, you come buying? You can sell, too.

I
don't think format should be taken into account on how epic a match is,
if it's close everything gets thrown out from format to whether it was
logical that the two entrants should be close. Who cares where Samus' votes would have gone, that's like not calling SMB3/LoZ great because SMW/SMB were in the poll. This is purely an opinion question; there's no criteria for how good a much is other than how much you enjoyed it/were excited in it/cared about it/etc. For me, 4-way matches and 12-hour matches just have a very hard time matching 24-hour 1v1s. There's a certain level above which they find it almost impossible to enter. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |
red sox 777 | Posted 12/22/2010 8:51:37 PM | message detail |
This is the match of the contest unless Brawl/MM exceeds it, which will be hard. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |

If Brawl is above 33% during the board vote I will be VERY disappointed in all of you. --- Tofa7 - LoZ-LoD | Hardcore "Thank you, thank you, no applause necessary, just send money..." |
swordz9 | Posted 12/22/2010 8:52:49 PM | message detail |
My
favorite is probably Persona 4 vs Dead Rising since P4 will most likely
have difficulty ever making round 3 of a contest again. I also prefer
SotC vs the two MGS games. I really hate the current match, but that's
due to the current result more than anything else. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |

From: swordz9 | #234 It's kinda surprising seeing you back FFX xD --- lol opinions |

This
is Persona 4's second contest. Unless Persona 5 comes out and steals
all of P4's nominations I think it'll still make it into another
contest. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
