GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1044
From: PartOfYourWorld | #345 Tali might be more popular among the fans. --- "Spoil FFX for me. I'm never going to play that game so I want to know if Jecht's going to be another Auron or another Sin." -Soul on PW vs Jecht |
  |
From what I seen the ME fanbase is obsessed with Tali, she is very popular and loved. --- ... |
As
someone who really doesn't have an ounce of love for Tali, I will admit
she is probably the strongest non-Shepard ME character. --- Commodore http://i941.photobucket.com/albums/ad258/CommodoreTN/commodorepngdy.png |
I
don't think there would be a significant difference in strength between
Garrus and Tali. Either would be good. Personal preference is Tali
though. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
Conrad Verner --- I'm no longer a Nadal supporter. Andy Murray is my new favorite player/person. -Princess Anri |
Earthquakes should be winning this Earthquakes are so unpredictable and deadly..you never get time to run or hide and can cause Tsunamis. --- ... |
It'll probably be different depending where you live. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Congrats to SuperNiceDog for winning the guru contest. |
Tali. Also Blizzard loses another poll. --- Still smilin' :> |
I
would expect some interesting trends today because certain natural
disasters are very rare or unheard of in certain parts of the world.
Like, you wouldn't expect blizzards or tornadoes in Hawaii, but tsunamis
are the only real threat to Hawaii. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
How aren't hurricanes winning in Louisiana? --- http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg Nominate SuperNiceDog's Guru-choice, then Epona. |
Tornadoes look terrifying, at least the monster kind you see on those weather shows. http://www.australiasevereweather.com/video/stills/2004/0512jd081.jpg Look at that! That's a nightmare. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Tornados
are probably doing well because it's Tornado season and the US has had a
few of them recently. Had a huge earthquake or hurricane hit the
country those would probably be winning. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Congrats to SuperNiceDog for winning the guru contest. |
I'm surprised that hurricanes aren't doing better than this in Florida, because they get the most hurricanes. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
We know how non-scary they can be. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
vcharon posted... Also Blizzard loses another poll. made my day =) --- Congratulation to SuperNiceDog. Guru champ and Rivalry Rumble master |
Had there been a previous one of yesterday's poll? --- Fett is ****ing crafty. Don't underestimate him.- Blade The Fettbox - http://fettbox.byethost8.com/ |
Yesterday's poll was the first time we ever had a poll like that. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
From: -LusterSoldier- | #367 Thanks luster. I was wondering if VA's earthquakefear had shifted due to last year's earthquake, --- Fett is ****ing crafty. Don't underestimate him.- Blade The Fettbox - http://fettbox.byethost8.com/ |
I figured C:SotN would have been doing worse than this. --- http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg Nominate SuperNiceDog's Guru-choice, then Epona. |
Man almost half the people have played the game?Didn't expected that. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
50% is right about what I would have expected. *shrugs* --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
That looks like a very good retention rate among people who have owned it, too. In comparison: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=4615 To say nothing of games that aren't downloadable! http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2180 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=4498 --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO SUPERNICEDOG NO PEACE] |
That's really impressive to me. Only thought FF or Zelda or Mario could get something that high. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Its
very impressive how facebook manage to keep its massive popularity, I
wonder if it will ever start declining like say Myspace? social sites
are here to stay it seems , and I don't see another site dethroning FB
anytime soon --- ... |
I
think today's poll might say something about the demographics of this
site. I remember someone saying something about how we aren't
attracting younger users because they are too hooked on Facebook to
check out that many sites outside of Facebook. Compared to last year, "Yes, more often than any other site" is doing about 2% worse while "Yes, I keep in touch with my friends there" is doing about 2.5% worse. On the other side, "Yes, but only occasionally" is doing about 2.5% better. It's still a little early in this poll, so the results could still change somewhat. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
From: Safer Sephiroth 777 | #370 It's like every single poll result shocks you. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy III (Solo Run) http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3470220 |
I
continue to get raised eyebrows followed by demands for an explanation
whenever I have to say to group members on uni projects that I don't use
Facebook. Quite enjoyable, really! --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
pjbasis posted... I think Dark Samus would do better than the MGS people by a lot. So would Epona. On what basis are we suggesting that Dark Samus might be stronger than Psycho Mantis and/or Sniper Wolf? --- Currently Playing - StarCraft: Brood War |
I
don't think Facebook can fall.Yeah I know Myspace fell all right,but
Facebook is too big to fall.I mean around 800.000.000 users right?So
even if 9 out 10 people leave it will still be a massive site. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
BSN
knows about today's poll apparently(read someone saying it on the Mass
Effect 3 board). Wonder how many votes this will end up with. --- - |
You mean there is rallying in today's poll? --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Yeah.
I don't have the link to the thread or anything, but it's pretty
apparent that BSN is involved with the huge spike in the first option. --- - |
What the hell is "BSN"? --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
The official Bioware forums. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
Because a GameFAQs poll will convince Bioware to change their minds. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy III (Solo Run) http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3470220 |
The vote total does not seem to indicate there is any significant rallying going on. Bioware already said they will sort of change the ending, not that I care at this point. I have already lost all interest in this game, and I have a huge number of games I want to play. I will make Bioware aware of my anger when they release their next game, which I am not buying. --- ... |
http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/355/index/10443061 http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/355/index/10436167 http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/323/index/10435775 http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/355/index/10434976 Those are the topics so far about the poll. As for the rallying, it seemed to die down after 3:00 AM. Part of the reason why the first option is losing percentage is because of the US, but it's also losing percentage in Europe. I remember the first option having over 40% in Europe early in the poll because the few votes that were coming from Europe were easily influenced by any late night Europeans voting in poll because of the topics on the Bioware forums. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Was there a "Got Mass Effect 3?" poll? I'd like to see some ME3 vs Skyrim next contest. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
From: LinkMarioSamus | #378 It's f****** Samus bro. She was also prominent in the entire Prime series, and Fusion (though as a different character there). --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Skyrim vs ME3 would be very very easy victory for Skyrim. --- ... |
Yeah, Skyrim wins that. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
BK_Sheikah00 | Posted 3/22/2012 10:26:18 AM | message detail | quote Was there a "Got Mass Effect 3?" poll? I'd like to see some ME3 vs Skyrim next contest. No, there wasn't. We had a poll about the "Steam Box" on the day of ME3's release date. Apparently Bacon thought it was more important to have a topic about the rumored "Steam Box" than a "Got Mass Effect 3?" poll. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
More rallying it seems. The first option is gaining in percentage quickly. --- ... |
I'd bet on Skyrim > ME3, too. That doesn't mean Skyrim's safe from ME2 though..... --- http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg Nominate SuperNiceDog's Guru-choice, then Epona. |
Yeah
for the time being, Mass Effect 3 will probably get a bunch of
anti-votes due to the ending. Not to mention, more people probably
bought Skyrim. --- If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominos will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate. - Zapp Brannigan |
Even if we disregard the ending I would still vote for Skyrim over ME3 without much thinking. The ending overshadowed the other problems ME3 suffer from, like the terrible side quests system, lack of enough dialogue options, some bad squad characters, lack of interesting planets to explore without being in a battle, lack of epic moments (like becoming a specter in ME1 ) poor controls, not enough enemy variety, etc its just a mediocre game. --- ... |

Yeah, I don't recall encountering those problems in my playthrough. Or I should say some of those weren't a big enough deal to detract from the overall experience. But the "lack of epic moments" complaint is LOL-worthy --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
I
haven't seen the ending of ME3, but as an outsider, I find the whole
topic absolutely ridiculous. We've all played our share of games with
disappointing endings, but asking for a new ending is just dumb. --- http://s3-ec.buzzfed.com/static/enhanced/web04/2011/12/4/12/enhanced-buzz-wide-5065-1323019200-17.jpg |
, I don't recall encountering those problems in my playthrough. Or I should say some of those weren't a big enough deal to detract from the overall experience. But the "lack of epic moments" complaint is LOL-worthy You mean not everyone have the same opinion of the game as me?! ludicrous ! I haven't seen the ending of ME3, but as an outsider, I find the whole topic absolutely ridiculous. We've all played our share of games with disappointing endings, but asking for a new ending is just dumb. There are several reasons why this turned to be such a big debacle. First, the hype for the game was massive, so naturally the disappointment that followed was also gigantic. Second, Bioware flat out LIED about the ending not being "A, B or C" and then we get a Red/Blue/Green ending. Third, this is not just one game, but an entire series, people invested hundred of hours and hundred of dollars, so they are pretty pissed that their journey came to such an abrupt, absurd and nonsensical end. --- ... |
