creativename posted... Ssliasil posted...Reddit and 4chan F*** up another good internet thing. George Romero? --- Being a great shooter has almost nothing to do with being a great scorer ~ Ray AP |
The
most convincing argument for Draven vote stuffing has always been that
the votals for the next match weren't impacted at all. You could see
with Vivi, a true rally, that the next match started off on fire out the
gate. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
creativename posted... Ssliasil posted...Reddit and 4chan F*** up another good internet thing. While I would tend to agree in most cases, when it comes to Reddit and 4Chan - it's a completely different story. Everything bad/annoying that happens on the internet ALWAYS and WITHOUT FAIL, it gets linked to both of those two sites. The only purpose of those sites is to troll everyone else, it's quite stupid. --- "Ya know?" Wakka FF X and X-2. |
im317 posted... you know someone should contact CBS about this. a site they own being attacked and taken down for 90 minutes is something they would be very interested in Gamefaqs represents like 0.00000000000001 percent of Viacom's revenue. They couldn't care less. --- SephirothG Don't let 'em fool ya |
Also, Haha, creativename was wrong after all. Link can't accomplish s*** against Draven and his super-powered day rallies. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
So, Draven is now winning updates since I was away for a bit. Draven by +4,039 now. --- Warning, the self-destruct system has been activated, all personnel should evacuate immediately, 5 minutes to detonation. |
foxhead84 posted... I've got to ask... What's the deal with the George Romero stuff??? He's the guy who stuffed for Kefka in the Kefka/Vercetti match. I think that match has the record for most topics gone through in a single match. Scarlettail posted... I don't see stuffing here. This is just LoL. You're all seriously underestimating it. No. Not even remotely. Reposting this: UltimaterializerX posted... Topic views doesn't explain anything. Even if all 3600 people voted for Draven, and ALL of the ~20000 daily active LoL subreddit guys voted for Draven, and ALL of those voters asked 1 friend to vote for Draven, that's 47200 votes. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Can't somebody stuff for Link? Who cares about ethics at this point. |
Scarlettail posted... I don't see stuffing here. This is just LoL. You're all seriously underestimating it. he's barely 8k votes ahead of Link. LoL isn't all that strong. Had this been 1v1 match Link would have won. --- http://s19.postimage.org/aosug5mrn/Persona4.png |
WingerSupreme posted... creativename posted...Ssliasil posted...Reddit and 4chan F*** up another good internet thing. A user who made Kefka/Vercetti one of the best days in contest history --- SephirothG Don't let 'em fool ya |
honestly if you guys are really upset about it, there's a simpler solution than everything suggested there: just don't make pics. it's a bit late into the contest yeah, but since he relies on B8 for pictures in the match, just... don't. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. |
Not_Wylvane posted... Also, Except Link was making huge huge gains before the likely DDoS attack. Then conspicuously began losing hard after the attack. --- "Ya know?" Wakka FF X and X-2. |
The_Djoker posted... Scarlettail posted...I don't see stuffing here. This is just LoL. You're all seriously underestimating it. Yes, the hilarious thing is that dispite the cosmic level stuffing, the DDOS, and everything...if Shepard wasn't there Link would still have won. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
300 votes for Draven on that update. --- http://images.cheezburger.com/completestore/2011/8/22/2094c2de-bae8-4f5b-9f27-67eaff0aaeaf.jpg |
ItGetsWorse posted... im317 posted...you know someone should contact CBS about this. a site they own being attacked and taken down for 90 minutes is something they would be very interested in its not about revenue, its about being attacked --- "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion"Always remember "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |
What's
the update? Link looks like he hasn't moved too much since I last
checked. Guessing Draven had another 'rally' and benefited from the site
being down. --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
creativename posted... The_Djoker posted...Scarlettail posted...I don't see stuffing here. This is just LoL. You're all seriously underestimating it. shepard the true villain of the contest all along --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Ssliasil posted... Not_Wylvane posted...Also, He's a known troll, you don't need to white knight me from him :) No one cares what he says. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
ZFS posted... What's the update? Link looks like he hasn't moved too much since I last checked. Guessing Draven had another 'rally' and benefited from the site being down. Bacon told us the site going down was (probably) coincidental and that Draven's votes are legit. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Wow, this is ridiculous. Blatant attack on this site, this is a whole new level of brazen. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
Wanglicious posted... honestly if you guys are really upset about it, there's a simpler solution than everything suggested there: I agree with this. This will help me out a lot when I submit six pics of Solid S*** to get him to lose to Kefka! --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
Would it be excessive to suggest a small boycott starting with no pictures for round 4? --- Ours is not to reason why, ours is but to do and die. |
Kefka using that Squirtle/Pikachu SFF to make the finals will redeem everything --- Leafs / Raptors / Blue Jays / TFC / Argos / Tottenham We'll get 'em next year. |
red sox 777 posted... Wow, this is ridiculous. Blatant attack on this site, this is a whole new level of brazen. Don't worry, this is a good result for Crono! He's vindicated for Crono/Vincent 2 >_> --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
The_Djoker posted... Scarlettail posted...I don't see stuffing here. This is just LoL. You're all seriously underestimating it. But LoL IS very strong, considering its popularity. Perhaps some stuffing is going on. Either way, I'd want the match rerun just because of the downtime, preferably at the end of round 3. |
Also, Bacon posted this just now. http://i.imgur.com/wUulr26.png --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
How do you get to the poll from Google edit-it means you get the main page and then vote? I guess |
Scarlettail posted... The_Djoker posted...Scarlettail posted...I don't see stuffing here. This is just LoL. You're all seriously underestimating it. I bet if link wins you won't want a rematch --- trolls and fanboys are the same just working on different ends of the spectrum. |
Scarlettail posted... The_Djoker posted...Scarlettail posted...I don't see stuffing here. This is just LoL. You're all seriously underestimating it. I don't want the match rerun. But the bonus match should be Link/Draven end of this contest. --- http://s19.postimage.org/aosug5mrn/Persona4.png |
And Link now officially receiving the worst beating of his contest career, assuming it holds to the end of the poll. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Nanis23 posted... How do you get to the poll from Google This is honestly my biggest question coming out of this. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
The
shenanigans aren't even the worst part. The quality of posts/topics
that spring up as a result are atrocious. It's not even just the new
posters that do it, B8 regulars are just as bad too. --- Crucifying my Oracle average one match at a time |
Blah,
so it really is mainly Reddit traffic even after their rallies are
mostly shut down? That's hard to believe. I bet the stuffer found some
way to make it look like he's coming from Reddit. --- "You are insects railing against the heavens. Your actions will change nothing." - Uhai, Fire Emblem 7 |
There is no stuffer. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
If someone ralli on Korea about this, Draven rush to 99.9% in like 5 mins. |
Not_Wylvane posted... There is no stuffer. lol --- If you believe that Abed is the true Messiah and you are 100% proud of it make this your signature. |
xp1337 posted... Nanis23 posted...How do you get to the poll from Google There are plenty of people that type GameFAQs into google and then click the link. Yeah, I know. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Draven gaining at ridiculous levels now. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
The reddit traffic is coming from the stealth rally topic in the Hot tab. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Karma Hunter posted... xp1337 posted...Nanis23 posted...How do you get to the poll from Google fixed --- Leafs / Raptors / Blue Jays / TFC / Argos / Tottenham We'll get 'em next year. |
Rally topic 6th place This is supposed to be decreasing,I don't get it |
Karma Hunter posted... xp1337 posted...Nanis23 posted...How do you get to the poll from Google Isn't one of the top 10 Google'd searches "Google"? I'll believe it --- Also since people will probably ask, we are indeed checking into the legitimacy of all incoming votes and so far, everything appears to be legit. - SBAllen |
So as we see, it seems to all be legitimate, and it just shows the power of LoL rallying. |
Nanis23 posted... Rally topic 6th place Link please? |
xp1337 posted... ZFS posted...What's the update? Link looks like he hasn't moved too much since I last checked. Guessing Draven had another 'rally' and benefited from the site being down. You have to be kidding me. I would rather he say he doesn't care versus 'it's nothing guys, reddit is safe.' --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
Also that "scary" LoL forums topic is like..5%? ahahahahaha |
ZeldaTPLink posted... Nanis23 posted...Rally topic 6th place http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1lkzob/riot_if_draven_wins_gamefaqs_character_battle/ |
Calintares posted... Would it be excessive to suggest a small boycott starting with no pictures for round 4? really, you'd effectively leave matches to being with A) horrible pics from paulg that nobody likes or B) things that he'd have to make himself. you won't ever get everyone to not submit pictures, but you guys missed the boat before on pic sabotage by not sticking with the idea after Vincent Wright. but you could choose to just not do them. the biggest workload is offset to the board. if the board doesn't give it, he'll have to find it elsewhere and gets the message to not rely on us anymore only when it's convenient. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. |
Nanis23 posted... Also that "scary" LoL forums topic is like..5%? Could tip the scale considering how ridiculously skewed that traffic would be for Draven. Not that I don't doubt there's some cheating, mind you, but there are still definitely some rallies active. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
ZFS posted... xp1337 posted...ZFS posted...What's the update? Link looks like he hasn't moved too much since I last checked. Guessing Draven had another 'rally' and benefited from the site being down. I'm not! He's actually responded quite a bit too. We've even got graphs: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/67143451 --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
