I wish he didn't do it so easily though. Storming the match within an hour isn't as exciting as watching him climb for 12 --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
X: "I'm going to stop this madness." 52.23%. He's at 52.23%. I'm waiting on ya X. We're all waiting on you. |
KanzarisKelshen posted... it has the biggest AND most devoted fanbase in the world. This is not true and never will be. I'll give you that they're in a skinner box because Riot is not ethical, but Mario has the biggest gamer fanbase in the world. Won't matter during this contest, but stop being biased. --- Forgive me, I have but two faces. One for the world, one for God. Save me. |
When
Draven reaches the finals, he will make Snake and Mario look like
turbofodder. I can see that poll getting 200k with around 150k of it
going to Draven alone. |
kinsho3 posted... raginbull911 posted...People really need to stop moaning and complaining about cheating and stuffing and understand the situation. I think I'm more amused over all the people raging about Draven than I am about the damage to the match itself. Last round, I put up an unholy ****-storm about Draven and the regulars came in and basically spit on me for it. Now those same people are the ones pissing and whining about Draven in the second round when the same stuff happens, just because the characters happen to be stronger and more popular. I'll be happy if SB pops in and calls stuffing and nixes 90% of Draven's votes, but the sheer amount of hypocrisy I've seen on this board tonight has me grinning from ear to ear. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
yoyoyoyrlozer posted... Can someone explain to me why Draven can pull this off but not Teemo? I looked at the popularity charts for LOL champions and Teemo seems to be one of the top 3 and Draven isn't even in the top 10. www.twitch.tv/teemodies‎ 24 hours of Teemo deaths, all day, every day. He's a more hated character than Draven. |
BrettGardner_ posted... what's wrong with rallying The reason people here enjoy contests is because they like the premise of seeing what characters are more popular on GameFAQs. Since that's clearly not what's going on here, I'm not sure why people would still be interested. What would be the point of even making a bracket? You are aware that making a bracket and trying to predict things is the entire premise of this contest, right? --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
Karma Hunter posted... Hey I'm not gonna let this get me down. I'll at least take solace in mah boi Snake getting further in a contest than Link! Damnit though, I'll be getting the same amount of points in the final as the Link backers. Ugh. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
UltimaterializerX posted... I can respect LoL, but Ashe would have been much cooler in this spot. She's the tutorial character, after all. Or even Miss Fortune, LoL + TJF... So much power. |
I
see we are doubting LINK the man the myth the anti-rally who doesn't
love Zelda folks old GameFAQs votes gonna come back to beat Draven Draven is no l shaped block --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |

It
does seem a little weird that the entire fanbase did not participate
one iota in the Teemo match. Even if some would have participated to
vote for L-Block, we'd have at least sensed it in a votals spike. There
was nothing; it was whisper quiet for 12 hours. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |
UltimaterializerX posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...it has the biggest AND most devoted fanbase in the world. OK, yes, Mario has the biggest fanbase in the world. That's fair. Possibly the most devoted too. You get what I mean though, right? On a game to game comparison, no game is as huge as League of Legends. None. |
Guys. At this point, MMX has what Samus would be expected to score on Ryu. And rising. GameFAQs is already powering up MMX far beyond what he would have ever dreamed possible in this vain hope of taking Draven down. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Can't believe I woke up in 6 am to see this Was worth it but it's time to bed Hoping for X comeback when I wake up |
So
if Draven wins the whole contest, the random bracket makers who had
draven winning have a 117 point advantage over every guru. I was doing so well =( |

BrettGardner_ posted... Qwaar posted...BrettGardner_ posted...what's wrong with rallying So huge, they're making Ultra Street Fighter IV after much fan request. |
Looks like he's starting to slow down a little bit, damage obviously already done unless Allen is going to bless us. --- Still smilin' :> |
The Teemo match barely broke 30000 votes despite attempts to get a Teemo rally going. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
So, how many Chester Units is Draven already in this match? --- Warning, the self-destruct system has been activated, all personnel should evacuate immediately, 5 minutes to detonation. |
Karma Hunter posted... Hey I'm not gonna let this get me down. I'll at least take solace in mah boi Snake getting further in a contest than Link! 15% will look pretty bad in the finals! --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |

BrettGardner_ posted... LOLContests posted...BrettGardner_ posted...what's wrong with rallying Link isn't "guaranteed" to win, at least not in the way Draven now is. Many people thought Snake or Cloud stood some sort of chance, and Cloud legitimately beat him in the past. This isn't "legitimate" in that same way and means pretty much nothing. --- Still smilin' :> |
From: -LusterSoldier- | #221 The Teemo match barely broke 30000 votes despite attempts to get a Teemo rally going. Teemo is hated on Reddit Anyone who had Teemo going far (like me) was relying on Riot to post something about it because he's their poster child --- The King of Kings http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/9971/744sptp062727c1tyrekeem.jpg |
Anyway,
my own take on this is that I never really cared who won. I always
enjoyed this because of the stats and possible shifts going on. I was always anti-rally because those just ruined all that. That was what was fun to me. I've picked up some other things along the way because of it, like backing Crono and Link but it was mostly the stats. Most people call that anti-fun for some asinine reason, but whatever, this match is what it is. Expert Challenge is still around and thankfully this can't touch Crono/Pikachu which has basically been my most anticipated match. I was looking forward to Link/Snake (or Cloud)/Mario too but that's looking like it's gone, so meh. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?

xp1337 posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...UltimaterializerX posted...My only actual legit complaint (LoL fans being terrible isn't legit, I admit this) is he's facing Link too early. If he wins that match, the contest is over two rounds early and there isn't much else to get hyped for. Why not? I want Draven to win this. I love Mario more. I would love it if Mario won the contest because he's too respected and too emblematic of gaming to lose to any upstart who tries to challenge what he means to the industry. I haven't BS'd anybody about anything related to Draven so far. Why would you think this is a lie of all things? |
Reading the last stats topic and the first, I don't know 15 pages of this one have been ****ING HILARIOUS. Thank you guys. Also if this holds up, it looks like the most anticipated match of the entire contest will be Link/Shep/Draven. --- FFIXOwner Character Battle IX Bracket: 76/87 |
I
don't think people would mind the rallying too much if those people
ever came back for any other matches, but it looks like they come just
for Draven matches. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
I
mean I could get behind Draven doing well if he wasn't doing THIS well.
He's nearly doubling friggin Mega Man X after 50 minutes of rallying.
It just makes the rest of the contest completely pointless. He now cant
have a debatable match. He's going to make Link look like Chie and then
crush Snake with 70% in the final. |

ExThaNemesis posted... TAFKAHurricane posted...We need to convince the LoL fan base to kill themselves I'll be agreeing with ExTha. |
I
think people here are confusing 'rage' for 'ennui.' This is the kind of
result where the fun lasts about 5 minutes. Now it's like, oh, Draven
wins the contest unopposed. Okay. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |

Yeah, so much power... ...to drown like fodder. (Sorry, I never knew there was a Miss Fortune in LOL. The only MOBA I play is Awesomenauts.) |
BrettGardner_ posted... LOLContests posted...BrettGardner_ posted...what's wrong with rallying Predicting character strength and predicting rally strength are two different things. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
The Owner of FF9 posted... Reading the last stats topic and the first, I don't know 15 pages of this one have been ****ING HILARIOUS. Who will anticipate an obvious Draven win? No suspense. --- Menji has reclaimed what was his by rights. I was more of a man with his than with my own combined. ##Alec |
Hey man, it's possible they blew their load too quick. Never count out Link! Especially when he starts getting counted out --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
If
GameFAQs fights back in the final, it'll be with Mario (assuming he
makes it). He's the 'apparent' stronger character (as MMX is to Ryu), so
what would have been a debatable match will have Snake left in the
dust. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Or even Janna. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page, Rest in peace Kazbar :( |
This really is the most boring way Draven could have won. If he beat MMX in a relatively close match it would show that the rally has increased tremendously but have left tons of doubt for whether it would grow large enough to beat Link. Instead, we all now know that Link is going to get murdered weeks in advance. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
I
think anyone thinking that Link is going to beat Draven is deluding
themselves, honestly. As long as Draven repeats this, Link has an actual
0% chance of winning. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KanzarisKelshen posted... Why not? I want Draven to win this. I love Mario more. I would love it if Mario won the contest because he's too respected and too emblematic of gaming to lose to any upstart who tries to challenge what he means to the industry. I haven't BS'd anybody about anything related to Draven so far. Why would you think this is a lie of all things? Because what, in the 11 year history of these contests, makes you think that Mario is going to succeed where Link failed? It just reads to me as trying to defuse the whole, "Well, Draven won, contest over" sentiment with, "Wait guys, he can still lose!" If Draven can lose, it has to be Link or some totally bizarre abandonment where he stops getting rallied. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?

X now up to 63% on Ryu. Draven is nearly tripling Ryu. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Know what Everyone go and create accounts in proxies to downvote the LoL reddit rally |
I like how the reddit posts still have way more people saying they voted for Ryu or Mega Man and have like 1/3 down votes. I dunno I'm still keeping my tinfoil hat on here. But it doesn't matter because Bacon will not save us. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

Man, we needed a lame duck in the finals, because GameFAQs is just going to be too divided between Snake and Mario. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
lmao he's doubling mmx now --- nt |
