See guys, there's no sense in playing nice with Reddit. Their DDOS attack cannot be tolerated. Now let's downvote and report this thread to further weaken the rally:

Shut up.

It's not 'despite the DDoS'. The DDoS was murdering him. Link just cut more votes in that five minute update there than he did in the last 50.

Literally a DDoS over Link coming back.

This contest is the best. Top contest of all time. Dirtiest, filthiest contest of all time, but top contest of all time.

You guys asked for it.

The Draven fans got behind a character, posted rally topics, and then delivered on votes.

You guys, instead of just rallying for Link (which would have been the positive thing to do), acted out in fear, came on B8 complainin and crying, and then took the fight to their "base" so to speak, and started down voting their rally topics.

If they're reacting negatively, and trying to bog down the contest, it's because you all started it.

The match will probably be rerun if it's close at all in the end, although at this rate, that's not even an option. All of the rally topics are off the front page of the subreddit.

It's like we are dealing with the mother ****ing final boss of the contests and Link is the hero
Againt all odds,when things look dim,when Draven peak is at 6000,Link start cutting back..fighting..against everything
Draven collapsing,understanding he is going to lose,decides to use his mighty DRAVEN DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACK on Link,weaking him slightly
But Draven is not satisifed,he calls his minions to lend him his powers! but...they refuse...they look at Link,and see a hero...struggling against all chances...and surviving Draven ultimate attack...and now...it's time..time..for our Hero..for Link..to defeat the all-mighty Draven once and for all!!!!

The lead was 6144 at its peak at 8:40 am

now it's down to 3302 and shrinking very fast

Lead maxed out a little over 6100.

So Link's cut about 3000 over the past few hours, minus that interlude where we were mostly down.

No, his rally level of votals would be quite higher. Maybe his *night* rally total, which is naturally lower due to the low incoming amount of votes.

Draven is overperforming without a rally though, you are correct. The updates that he is pulling on Link are nothing in the realm of 'losing with 37% on Chie Satonaka'. There are still a lot of GameFAQs voters who are seeing that Link has a chance to lose and bandwagoning him. His base strength is just too low for him to pull a natural Snake-level bandwagon (2008 Snake wouldn't have lost this lead).
