Luster shamelessly voting dishonestly to try to rig a poll --- http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/2369/mythbattlers.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/Sensui22/1248835958206.png |
I
ended up voting for "Hamburgers" in this poll. If I were to vote
honestly, I probably would have gone with "Fried/grilled chicken" since I
like eating chicken nuggets/fingers a lot, but I like hamburgers as
well even though I never buy them at a fast food place. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
I voted Sandwiches. --- ... |
Tough choice between burgers/Asian/Mexican for me. Burgers win in the end AS ALWAYS. --- http://8board.webs.com/ariel.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
That
was a terrible update. It looked like Hamburgers was slowly building
up a lead and then Pizza finally manages to strike back at Hamburgers on
that recent update. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Owned. --- "Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!" "Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!" |
From: PartOfYourWorld | #153 this --- http://www.backloggery.com/superangelo128 http://myanimelist.net/profile/superange128 http://vndb.org/u6633/votes http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/7524301 |
In
the 2009 poll, Pizza was winning at the end of this hour, although
Hamburgers won the second hour before Pizza finally took off with the
night vote. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Jesus, Hamburgers is really dying now. It's lost about 2.5% in the last 20 minutes. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Luster literally anti-voted in a "favorite type of fast food" poll. I want that to really sink in for a minute. --- Current Let's Play: Legend of Mana http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3474994 |
3.5% drop for the last poll option on that update. Diablo is really bad with that board vote. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
I would do bad things for a summer contest --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
2 > 1 > 3, huh. If facing each other, would you pick Diablo II or Diablo III to win the match? --- Current Let's Play: Legend of Mana http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3474994 |
Not_Wylvane posted... 2 > 1 > 3, huh. If facing each other, would you pick Diablo II or Diablo III to win the match? I think it's a little premature to go making decisions about who would win on the day a game is released, especially without reviews, sales numbers, etc. That said, I wouldn't hesitate to choose D2. --- Congrats to SuperNiceDog, your 2011 Guru Champion! |
Diablo 2 without giving it a second thought --- I'm no longer a Nadal supporter. Andy Murray is my new favorite player/person. -Princess Anri |
The Mana Sword posted... Diablo 2 without giving it a second thought I say the same thing. Really, why is this even competition? |
Bump --- We'll show her the power of a dream. |

Not sure if this was brought up but, Konami CB: http://www.konami.com/e3/battle/ --- GT: TriggerTRE / PSN: SolidTRE Life is short. Smile while you still have teeth! |
We need a contest ! I just sent a feedback ticket asking for Rivalry Rumble™ 2 --- ... |
XD,
I don't know why you would ask for another Rivalry Rumble. You should
have just asked him if he has plans for another contest this year. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
I
actually sent in a feedback ticket about the status of the next contest
a few days ago. Here's the response if anyone's interested: Message From EdBellis on 05/12/2012 I was curious if there were any plans for a new site-wide contest in the near future, be it a Character Battle or a Games Contest or something else entirely. I think there would be some interest in one (even outside the Contest board), and it seems like it's been a while since our last "proper" contest. (I apologize if this is sent to the wrong category, but the Contests category didn't seem to apply.) Thanks for your time. Message From GameFAQs on 05/15/2012 Contests are made on a "we've been given the budget to make a contest" basis. They are always being planned but can only happen when we're allotted the money to do them. I found it interesting that "they are always being planned" but it seems like CNet is holding them back. Maybe this isn't news to you guys but it's news to me! --- you are starting to drive my passions with this thang |
If
CBS thinks this site is becoming less profitable and the contests not
bringing any extra hits, then we may have a problem. Although GameFAQS
just got a second full time admin so CBS still care about this site. --- ... |
From: Boudii | #170 don't be that guy --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
what guy? --- ... |

From: Dilated Chemist | #169 Gotta love polished looking layouts. Are they revealing characters up until E3? Cause the bracket isn't complete. Also, I can't find information on how this is actually going to run. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |

Alucard, Dracula, Luca and Raiden are missing so far. --- GT: TriggerTRE / PSN: SolidTRE Life is short. Smile while you still have teeth! |
Don't forget Pyramid Head and Simon Belmont. |
It seems they're content on only using Lords of Shadow for some stupid reason. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
can pokemon beat GTAV? that would be awesome --- ... |
Pokemon is really struggling in this poll. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
GTA has the lead. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Gotta think that if Pokemon can't take the board vote that this poll is GTA's. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
3 way fight for first place. Pokemon really fought hard near the end to push ahead of GTV before the freeze. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
I thought RE6 would be doing a lot better than this. Also surprised to see Borderlands and GTA doing so well. --- http://i43.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
Konami E3 Battle pull bracket is up now: http://www.konami.com/e3/battle/bracket/ Bracket deadline is May 22 11:59pm EDT. Voting starts on the 23rd. You need a Facebook account to submit a bracket. --- We'll show her the power of a dream. |
I'm surprised that DMC is doing this terrible, but I'll blame it on a lot of people not knowing it's a Devil May Cry game. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
From: -LusterSoldier- | #908 A lot of people know it's a DMC game. They just know it's going to be bad. I'm a huge DMC fan. I voted for GTA5. --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
The real surprise for me here is Borderlands 2. It's looking good to beat Assassin's Creed III and Resident Evil 6. Not bad. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
After
struggling with GTA with the board vote, Pokemon is doing very well in
holding off GTA from getting the lead back again. GTA hasn't had a lead
at all since before the freeze even kicked in. The night vote will
probably turn this around, though. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
I just realized Pokemon is the sole Nintendo game here. Still, it's great to see it winning. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
I'm
still surprised that it's winning, I didn't think it got much hype at
all other than from that cool anime trailer a few days ago. --- SuperNiceDog smelled us all later. |
I'm surprised that Resident Evil 6 is bombing. I thought GameFAQs loved Resident Evil 5. I suppose Operation Raccoon City may have left some bad taste, though. --- Currently Playing - StarCraft: Brood War |
From: LinkMarioSamus | #194 Yes, they loved it so much that they allowed Tales of Symphonia to beat it.... From: Team Rocket Elite | #187 I don't know if it's just me but I couldn't get it to work with Firefox, but it worked fine with either Chrome or IE. --- O brilliant blade of coldest steel, rend the infinite darkness and crush my enemies to nothing... SAVAGE WOLF FURY |
Cormano This is the best contest ever --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
WhiteLens posted... From: LinkMarioSamus | #194 I thought GameFAQs loved Resident Evil 5. Yes, they loved it so much that they allowed Tales of Symphonia to beat it.... Tales of Symphonia is one of this site's fan favorite games, and Resident Evil 4 broke 45% on it. Plus in that contest's (lol) x-stats: 27) Resident Evil 5 28) Paper Mario 29) Halo 30) Super Mario Galaxy 31) BioShock 32) Mass Effect 33) Knights of the Old Republic 34) Golden Sun 35) The Thousand-Year Door 36) Assassin's Creed II 37) Uncharted 2 38) Chrono Cross 39) San Andreas 40) Mega Man 9 41) God of War II 42) Final Fantasy XII Would we actually pick RE5 to beat any of these? --- Currently Playing - StarCraft: Brood War |
I would pick a few of those to beat RE5 and ToS. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Either way, RE has more of a wide appeal strength than hardcore fanbase one, so it's bound to do merely ok in multi-way polls. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/pjbasis.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Allejo This is the best contest ever Fixed. |
