GameFAQs Contests

It just amazes me that something that has sold 25 million plus units over 3 platforms and is played daily by millions of people can be so irrelevant on gamefaqs. I dont see much hate for Minecraft either so its not going to get antivotes like say a CoD character would. It's like gamefaqs is stuck in a time loop and cannot comprehend anything after the early 00's.

Allen had Missingno. Fair, next.

The character didn't actually do anything though; losers stuffing a poll did. Literally cheering on nerds so you can... see me upset, at a result that was supposed to happen anyway?

We're all nerds here, don't even try that crap.

You are a crybaby and have been for YEARS. Everyone knows this.

I'm not the one someone just called childish, though. Well, except coming from you but that doesn't really count ya know. Neutral parties and all.

Calling you a child and a crybaby is not being childish, it's using facts based on years of evidence. You have literally -- L-I-T-E-R-A-L-L-Y -- cried about "joke characters" not only winning matches, but acted like a complete tool about people like Vault Boy getting higher percentages than expected. You're so bad about your whining that you basically single-handedly caused Marche to win that one contest here, because the entire board knows what a whiner you are and reveled in the crying once Marche won. You have not changed and never will, immature crybabies will always be immature crybabies. Thought you had gotten better since you hadn't ruined the stats topic once all contest, but people don't change.

Nice use of the ironic "I know you are but what am I defense", though! Love when people prove my point for me.

...dude. You sound really bad here. Might want to rethink things a bit.

If you think those are normal trends, I've got swampland in Florida to sell you. Bacon's inevitable "Fair, next" doesn't mean anything.

LOL. Even if you had, would anyone buy it? Sure for a Poker shack but come on, man...

Just use the standard list of questions next time, if anyone got snakebit, it makes things much easier to roll with. If expecting a 50/50 match...

1. Is one of the entrants a joke character? If so, pick the joke.
2. Is one of the entrants an FF7 character? If so, pick against the FF7 character.
3. Is one of the entrants heavily favored by the board's brackets? If so, pick the favorite.
4. Is one of the entrants an MGS character? If so, pick the MGS character.
5. Is one of the entrants a board favorite? (Phoenix Wright, Tales of Symphonia) If so, pick the board favorite.

These all have general precedence over one another, but sometimes one will supersede the other. I know I have probably missed some, but hope this has been helpful!

so what happens when a joke FF7 character that's heavily favored goes against a MGS character

Twitter doesn't count for anything. Entire companies with thousands of followers have rallied for characters this contest on Twitter and had zero impact.

Always bet on the joke, as long as the match goes 50/50.

15 minute updates make that last hour look even worse. Tidus's variance evens out more or less, Missingno's does not.

I got replies from the majority of them saying they voted. let me go check.

I mean that doesn't mean they DID, but why bother lying about it just to appease a stranger?

XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism.

Tidus' updates are entirely normal and fall within a certain range. Missingno's was the first time anyone had gotten over 100 votes in an update since the second hour of the match, and he got well over 100. No, I'm sorry, I don't believe you.

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Wario vs Waluigi is the only match I ever want to see Wario in again

Tidus was stuffing at a 2:1 ratio.

As opposed to Bacon literally saying Tidus stuffed? This is a far bolder "lie" than just saying "nothing happened".

That's what they caught. 'Reddit Rush' is more plausible than this as a defense, but it's still highly suspect. Bacon caring more about stuffing than Ceej also doesn't seem to be rooted in anything factual.

Damn, well Missingno still loses to Squall. Jokes don't get stronger the 2nd time around otherwise L Block would be a champion again. Anyways I can't believe people actually save posts people made on this site from who knows how long ago just to make them look bad or whatever. I never save anything on this site let alone remember much since there's nothing of value worth saving to me.
