AxemRedRanger posted... 2) it becomes a /b/ rally point, winning and knocking out more popular entries, but alienating the majority of voters and leading to less people being interested in the contest (See: the latest GameSpot contest). WOW --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
OK, that's hilarious. I know Allen changed his stance since then, but that's an amazing turnaround. --- http://i.imgur.com/PL5UKJj.png Bearer of the Mark of Kan. |
AxemRedRanger posted... Oh hey guys, look what I just found: That is THE post of the stats topics. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
_SecretSquirrel posted... That is THE post of the stats topics. Yeah, I gotta agree. That is like, instant legendary status. Un-freakin'-believable. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
...the well may have dried up. Kirby just fell off a cliff. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
And Kirby just died. Someone call 911. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
All
part of Allen's plan to make this the farewell tour for the end of
contests. Making the top seeds the noble 9, make the 8 seeds the board
nominations, ending Link. Everything. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
Huh --- Not changing this sig until I decide to change this sig. Started: July 6, 2005 |

That's worse than the GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. quote --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
I hope the white knighting of Allen declines a lot after this. (as if Hyrule-gate wasn't enough) It's clear that his actual vision for the site is fairly non-existent. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
What on earth is Kirby doing...? |

And now Big Boss falls with Kirby. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
So. 4chan is full of nintendo fanboys right? Seems all they rally. --- nt |
Big
Boss is still falling within normal variance (and nearly cut Kirby
despite the dropoff). Kirby is being hilariously inflated. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Karma Hunter posted... Kirby is being hilariously inflated. Isn't that kind of his thing? --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. http://www.wwe.com/f/wysiwyg/image/2013/07/wyatt07062013.gif |
This
contest is just terrible. Upsets are not even upsets anymore. There is
no predictability, no trends just every match hinging on whether a rally
starts or not. I hate Sephiroth but I hope he wins. It might make 4chan
give up and leave the rest of the contest alone. |
From: Fr0zoN | #268 This contest is just terrible. Upsets are not even upsets anymore. There is no predictability, no trends just every match hinging on whether a rally starts or not. I hate Sephiroth but I hope he wins. It might make 4chan give up and leave the rest of the contest alone. This post sounds upset though. --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords. With what? ROT-13? -CJayC |
Honestly
if we could rehabilitate our normal votals, even modestly, it would
mute a lot of the non-Draven rallying that's been done in our matches.
Probably a pipe dream, especially since Draven winning is killing interest from our regulars, but whatever. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

creativename posted... He's doing what a non-rallied Kirby does in the night vote against Sephiroth and Naked Snake. The question is whether he stays unrallied. We just don't know how persistent these people are going to be. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
From: AxemRedRanger | #246 I know the game - but entries like that lead to two possibilities: 1) It gets almost no votes, and goes out in the first round despite all the nominations, while keeping a better entry off the bracket, or 2) it becomes a /b/ rally point, winning and knocking out more popular entries, but alienating the majority of voters and leading to less people being interested in the contest (See: the latest GameSpot contest). ...So this confirms that Barkley will be a valid nomination next year, right? --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords.

_SecretSquirrel posted... creativename posted...He's doing what a non-rallied Kirby does in the night vote against Sephiroth and Naked Snake. Started up again, so they seem pretty persistent. |
So Draven vs Charles Barkley bonus match after the finals? --- Official Iron Man of C&GN |
seeing how 4chan rallies have been the better part of this contest, i hope they stay. Kirby/Squirtle/Vivi finals let's do it. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. |

Probably a pipe dream, especially since Draven winning is killing interest from our regulars, but whatever. If indeed it's all the traffic that's not coming to the front page that's keeping votals low, then it would be great to have the link to the poll in more places, as many people have suggested by now. The reason I don't see it happening though, is because the poll is supposed to promote the site, not the other way around. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service!

also Kirby's day vote has some serious potential here. dat Nintendo Direct. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. |

GloryChaos posted... Someone's trying to start a Sephiroth rally on /v/. It's clearly a pro-Kirby rally. I can't completely count Kirby out because these people seem pretty obsessed and our votals are real damn low. But Sephiroth probably doesn't naturally lose many or possibly even any day hours to Kirby based on normal trends. Kirby's gonna need a lot more than this to stay in the game over 24 hours. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

I hate Sephiroth but I hope he wins. It might make 4chan give up and leave the rest of the contest alone. You realize this is the exact reaction they are hoping for right? The more our bitterness, the more those clowns will be motivated. Watching other people's pain is their only sense of pleasure in their otherwise hapless lives. GloryChaos posted... Someone's trying to start a Sephiroth rally on /v/. This will work out great! >_> Probably a sabotage attempt like I mentioned before. Kirby rally topics getting deleted? Just rally for Seph and see Kirby get the votes. Sneaky. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

wow that's a lot of votes for 3 hours in --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Kirby advancing is worse for a chance for Mewtwo upset,right? Following Sephiroth trends,I think he got it..? and it might be better because no rally votes will go for Sephiroth? |
And the Seph "rally" topic works like a charm. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Why aren't people rallying for Big Boss :( --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
A Seph rally probably ends up hurting him more than a Kirby rally would. Everyone just loves to hate FF7. |
Karma Hunter posted... GloryChaos posted...Someone's trying to start a Sephiroth rally on /v/. I thought FF7 characters were night oriented? --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
On the bright side, if 4chan indeed prevails, we have our trump card for the next round. http://25.media.tumblr.com/f61190eeb4ae8a09189099d3f9c89d66/tumblr_mj66haJkdb1r3tg06o1_400.png --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
creativename posted... And the Seph "rally" topic works like a charm. I must admit I did it for Squall against Missingno There was some talk about "poor guy probably getting more missingno votes than Squall" so yeah It worked in missingno favor but it was tiresome to keep it up and missingno advancing had no benefits |
Nanis23 posted... creativename posted...Ahahaha. That was you?And the Seph "rally" topic works like a charm. Same thing happened during Sephiroth/Missingno. too. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Greyfeld posted... Karma Hunter posted...GloryChaos posted...Someone's trying to start a Sephiroth rally on /v/. In practice? No. FF7 does better in the night because Europe loves it more, but the night has **** votals and the Power Hour, both of which hurt it. The day isn't as good to it but it has a ton of votes and that compensates in the end. --- http://i.imgur.com/PL5UKJj.png Bearer of the Mark of Kan. |
Also If Kirby=Luigi How much of Luigi votes were being leeched by Ness? |
Nanis23 posted... Also More than Ness actually got. This is a dumb match to make those comparisons. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
From: _SecretSquirrel | #291 On the bright side, if 4chan indeed prevails, we have our trump card for the next round. http://25.media.tumblr.com/f61190eeb4ae8a09189099d3f9c89d66/tumblr_mj66haJkdb1r3tg06o1_400.png Why not just go all the way? http://i.imgur.com/G153ujd.png --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords.

I
thought the guy who made the rally was just being angry like most of
/v/ is, but I never thought they'd purposely be trying to sabotage
Sephiroth. Huh. Interesting methods some people use to support their characters. --- Brawl FC - 1332 8069 6690 http://i.imgur.com/OZ9aS.png |
Karma Hunter posted... Nanis23 posted...Also Why? because of Sephiroth anti votes? |
So Kirby's currently... actually keeping his lead. Through the beginning of the night. If he keeps this up, whether through /v/ rallies or what else have you, does Sephy have a chance throughout the day? |
