OK, that was scary. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
I guess everyone's happy now. This has been a mighty effort, at least. |
reposting
to say that if you post a thread here to get upvotes on the draven
thread on /r/league you can get the thread shut down. |
That was a combination of Link falling AND Draven rising. Link went down below 350 while Draven went back up above 400. Draven's gaining momentum again, while Link's is stalled. Not a good sign for Link. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
ugh so much for draven slowing down --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
From: creativename | Posted: 9/2/2013 1:18:47 AM | #035 I'm feeling pretty good about Link here. why is Draven's rally going to stop at 8AM though? or ever? if Link can't win during the period with the most "natural gamefaqs" votes (the first hour) i don't see how he can even win updates consistently unless the rally dies off. --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
Wow, Link is doing pretty well now. --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords. With what? ROT-13? -CJayC |
LeonhartFour posted... It's not a matter of "selling it short." Well that's what selling it short is, isn't it? I mean it's quite clear that given the vast differential between their base strengths, Link is capable of a Herculean comeback here. Anyone thinking otherwise is selling Link's day vote short. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
As
for Link's prospects, I remain skeptical. Yeah, his day vote is going
to be amazing, but I don't know... does Draven really just run out of
steam? I'm doubting it. Even if Day!Link can cut through that I'm not
sure he can enough. Base Draven, sure, but I'm not sure we'll get that far! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Gap Change:- DRAVEN FAVOR Previous Gap:- 945 New Gap:- 1012 Gap Change:- 67 --- "Ya know?" Wakka FF X and X-2. |
I don't know. I think Draven will probably get up to at least 8000 or 9000 by the time Link gets his morning vote. And it would be logical to expect an overall higher level of traffic at reddit in the afternoon too, so it's not like Draven's votes are going to die off. --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
Link's
day vote is nothing compared to what Draven was doing in round 2. It
really can't be understated how much of a monster Draven CAN be, and if
he can harness that power again then there's nothing Link can do. --- "You are insects railing against the heavens. Your actions will change nothing." - Uhai, Fire Emblem 7 |
Either that or people just don't expect Draven rallies to die enough for it to matter. --- http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/8718/leonflowchart.png |
Interesting. Draven's getting a lot less votes than last time. I wonder if the vote stuffer laid off or the method was caught or something. Link could win if this actually goes legitimate. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Another rally springing up, is what worries me the most for the rest of this match. Link could conceivably surmount an 8,000 vote deficit if he stays on the roids here. He just needs to drink some of that Lon Lon Milk to blast through the day. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
Hyping up Link's day vote against a f***ing rally beast. You know, we haven't seen Day Draven yet. He might be even beastlier than we expect. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
OrangeCrush980 posted... Link's day vote is nothing compared to what Draven was doing in round 2. It really can't be understated how much of a monster Draven CAN be, and if he can harness that power again then there's nothing Link can do. Unlikely. The rally was way better organized and planned out this time...and Link is still keeping it close. I doubt we'll see anything like Draven's Round 2 votals. Not that he actually needs it to win, but Link has a much better chance based on what we've seen so far. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
Xuxon posted... why is Draven's rally going to stop at 8AM though? or ever? if Link can't win during the period with the most "natural gamefaqs" votes (the first hour) i don't see how he can even win updates consistently unless the rally dies off. Because Draven becomes much more likely to fall off as the match continues. Link will only gain strength once the sun hits until basically the end of the match. The rally won't die off overnight, and like I said people will bail on Link. But there's a pretty damn good chance Draven can't continue this. Let's say he manages to continue and stalls Link from say 8am-2pm. Link is still capable of a monster comeback of epic proportions the last 10 hours of the poll. Link's day vote is unreal. I don't buy this notion that Draven's rally has infinite hit points. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Both went crashing down. Link's now down to 320 votes an update and dropping. I'm going to bed. It looks like Draven's going to dominate now. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
Link can you just get that cut? =( --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Only
chance Link has is Draven's rally falling off a cliff. We saw last
round just how sustained his votes can be. Personally I think his rally
will go the full 24 hours. |
Lopen posted... Interesting. Part of it is that the LoL servers were apparently down last match. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Link
still going strong is amazing to me right now. Keeping Draven's gains
mostly in the 50-ish range, even after Power Hour is over...really
really impressive. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
Before I go, wait until the LoL kiddies wake up! --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
latiasz posted... reposting to say that if you post a thread here to get upvotes on the draven thread on /r/league you can get the thread shut down. What are the specifics of that? |
Thinking about LINK of all characters having to pull a comeback this is unreal --- They don't always think it be like it is, but it do. ~KF~ |
Link and Draven just draining Shepard's percentage now. Poor guy will probably get this treatment for the rest of the match. --- .-#Elements of Water#-. |
From: creativename | Posted: 9/2/2013 1:26:40 AM | #068 I don't buy this notion that Draven's rally has infinite hit points. well then that's all it comes down to. it's not us underestimating Link's day vote. --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
Lopen posted... Interesting. I would imagine a lot of his potential votes are getting sapped by Link. The match votals are about 2k higher than they were at the same time in Draven's R2 match. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
That
really doesn't matter that much. People overhype how one track mind
players of online games are. Most League players if the servers are
down are going to go do something else not go to talk about the game. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
The
vote stuffer has smartened up and is actually stuffing for Link as
well, just at a reduced rate. Hell, he's even giving Shepard a crumb or
two. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/gdl8lcn.jpg |
Julian_Caesar posted... Unlikely. The rally was way better organized and planned out this time...and Link is still keeping it close. I doubt we'll see anything like Draven's Round 2 votals. Not that he actually needs it to win, but Link has a much better chance based on what we've seen so far. Indeed. We've almost certainly seen Draven at his best already. This was the best organized rally of his, plus it had higher visibility on Reddit than his earlier rally. Overnight he'll do better just because Link's votes per update will die off like normal while Draven's don't. xp1337 posted... Link can you just get that cut? =( Don't expect many Link cuts until the day time. Overnight will be ugly for him. He'll get plenty of cuts in the day though. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Truly a vote stuffer for the ages. --- http://img.imgcake.com/nio/26leonpngat.png http://img.imgcake.com/nio/daigohadoupnguj.png |
Greyfeld posted... Lopen posted...Interesting. Wait, really? That surprises me. Also, I'm staying up late tonight because I have night shift starting 7:30 pm. Gonna get to see the start and the finish...hopefully the end is as exciting as the start has been so far. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
Lopen posted... That really doesn't matter that much. People overhype how one track mind players of online games are. Most League players if the servers are down are going to go do something else not go to talk about the game. I would wager that they'd go to check why the game went down as well, so they'd probably check Reddit. --- sc2us: MileS.151 |
Lopen posted... That really doesn't matter that much. People overhype how one track mind players of online games are. Most League players if the servers are down are going to go do something else not go to talk about the game. I dunno. When there's no wrestling to watch I go online to talk about wrestling. --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. http://www.wwe.com/f/wysiwyg/image/2013/07/wyatt07062013.gif |
creativename posted... xp1337 posted...Link can you just get that cut? =( Oh, I know, but there were a few close calls here! We're too far out of the power hour for me to expect one now, but it would have been the best if it happened about 30 minutes ago. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?

gearofages posted... latiasz posted...reposting to say that if you post a thread here to get upvotes on the draven thread on /r/league you can get the thread shut down. 1. post thread asking to upvote league thread on /r/leagueoflegends 2. send thread link to mod 3. they have to shut thread down due to site rules |
Hell, if Link keeps the gains at an average of 40, that's "only" 480-500 votes per hour. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
Japan finally going for Link instead of Draven! --- They don't always think it be like it is, but it do. ~KF~ |
Xuxon posted... From: creativename | Posted: 9/2/2013 1:26:40 AM | #068I don't buy this notion that Draven's rally has infinite hit points. That Link is almost at 47% on Draven, during a time when Draven's rally was at it's probable peak, is not a good sign for Draven either way. Link's %age on Draven will go down before it goes up again, but still, almost 47% is a good sign for Link. And Draven's rally doesn't have to totally die off for Link to pull a huge comeback. It can go on, just at a reduced rate, and Link will still savagely tear into that lead for the latter half of the match. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Greyfeld posted... Lopen posted...Interesting. At the moment, there's a difference of 1200. But the difference was created entirely within the first 15 minutes. This match had 5200 votes at the 15 minute mark, compared to 2200 in the last one. Despite that huge head start, it's already starting to fall behind that match. --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
For once I really want Link to win. He's the god damn hero of time!! |
Link only 1% back in the US! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
That's not going to work, the LoL mods like having that thread there. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
latiasz posted... gearofages posted...latiasz posted...reposting to say that if you post a thread here to get upvotes on the draven thread on /r/league you can get the thread shut down. They'd probably just throw out the number of upvotes estimated to have originated from this site, especially since they know full well how many upvotes the thread had ahead of time. |
LordoftheMorons posted... That's not going to work, the LoL mods like having that thread there. Besides that, why haven't people just posted a neutral thread on r/nintendo with a link to the battle? That's within the rules of the board, and it's not like you're going to get MORE people on the nintendo subreddit to vote for link by saying "yeah you should vote for link" --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
Julian_Caesar posted... LordoftheMorons posted...That's not going to work, the LoL mods like having that thread there. Yeah, someone can just post a topic like "Draven vs. Shepard vs. Link on gamefaqs poll" asking "So who are you going to vote for?" That seems within the rules. Doubt it will matter much though. I don't think it would make a real difference. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
i was planning on getting some sleep.. now it seems unlikely as i want to see links percentage go up also the difference between the 2 is 1100ish so link has plenty of chances --- GT: LegendaryFalco oh ok |
