Shame
about the rally. However, if Mega Man can somehow win the whole damn
contest, and he just might, it would make a rally to overcome
unfavourable placement worth it. Speaking of which, that Draven rally is starting to climb Reddit, and hasn't been deleted yet. Crisis alert! Strongly advise countermeasures. Oh RallyFAQs. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
A third of Charizard's lead, just like that. I..........believe. --- 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2010, 2011 10 championships is not enough. ZeldaFAQs thirsts for more. |
TsunamiXXVIII posted... What the...how is Mega Man actually challenging Charizard?!?!?! This entire match makes no sense...even with Mega Man boosting due to the Smash announcement, Charizard should be boosted from the version that got rSFFed last round, and there's a freaking MMX character in the match! Mega Man even being closer to Charizard than to Zero, let alone being close enough to threaten Charizard, is F***ING WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You mean right.

LordoftheMorons posted... GloriousSweater posted...If Mewtwo beats Draven (likely because of LoL people no longer caring or simply forgetting) and gives Snake a free contest, will that significantly increase or alter your appreciation of this Character Battle? Yeah, it's so much worse than the same nine characters winning over and over and over again. |
The
primary r/lol thread is getting upvote spammed (the hypocrisy is
hilarious) and the mods who were deleting those threads are long gone.
Enjoy this match, because the next one should be yet another foregone
conclusion. Just like last time at the end of Draven/Link --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 146/234 Today's Pick: Mega Man |
Lightning Strikes posted... You know what match might not be decided by a rally. Technically, this is being decided by a rally. Somebody got some famous dude on FB to tell his followers to vote for Mega Man a while ago. He cut about 200 votes shortly after that, then stalled again for a while before the SNV kicked in. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
I actually legitimately think Mega Man can do this! If he can take the lead before the final hour he might have a chance to build something to cling to! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Well yeah, there's a rally. I don't think 184 updates really happen around this time unless there's something special going on --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
Not a famous dude, just a pro-Mega Man FB page. --- "Hamas isn't really a terror organization." -Terran [Evil Republican] Play Der Langrisser. |
Karma Hunter posted... The primary r/lol thread is getting upvote spammed (the hypocrisy is hilarious) and the mods who were deleting those threads are long gone. Enjoy this match, because the next one should be yet another foregone conclusion. All it really takes is for one rally topic to be visible on the front page of the LoL subreddit for like 30 minutes or so to give Draven enough votes to hold off any potential comeback by Mewtwo or Sephiroth. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
The vote intake numbers indicate that MM is being rallied. Can't tell for Charizard at a glance. --- 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2010, 2011 10 championships is not enough. ZeldaFAQs thirsts for more. |

F***ing beastly performance. Rallied, but still, close enough for the rally to count for something. --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
SubDeity posted... Not a famous dude, just a pro-Mega Man FB page. Ok, I stand corrected. I knew it was something on FB. I'd ask the same of the Pokemon fan page, but I don't see any way to contact the person who runs it. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
charmander6000 posted... The primary r/lol thread is getting upvote spammed (the hypocrisy is hilarious) and the mods who were deleting those threads are long gone. Enjoy this match, because the next one should be yet another foregone conclusion. Did we honestly expect a different outcome? I'm not even being bitterly rhetorical here. I mean, did anyone genuinely doubt that the Draven rallies would reappear and be supported? We had this kind of thing play out in the middle of the Link match. The idea of rallies being cracked down on here was absurd! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |

Then00bAvenger posted... Well yeah, there's a rally. I don't think 184 updates really happen around this time unless there's something special going on You're right, 184 vote updates at this time of the day is unusually high, especially in a match that ends up getting about 49000 votes without any rallying at all. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
I'm not saying this should be unexpected, I'm just marveling at the fact that they're breaking reddit's rules to interfere in the contest. It throws the pathetic protests of this being fair play into sharp relief. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |

We've still got ninety minutes for the rallies to be deleted. I'm not really that concerned! --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
I'm sure the Reddit topic is helping Mega Man. That makes the most sense to me. |
Some
math on Draven: Suppose Draven gets 50,000 votes- less than he got
against Link despite having 90 minutes extra and less loss of rallied
votes to the other side. Gamefaqs matches pull in around 45,000 votes naturally. If 5000 of that is for Draven, then Mewtwo and Seph split the other 40,000 about 50/50. Mewtwo needs to then rally about 30,000 votes, net, to catch Draven. Squirtle demonstrated about 5,000 net against Cloud. --- 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2010, 2011 10 championships is not enough. ZeldaFAQs thirsts for more. |
Not_Wylvane posted... We've still got ninety minutes for the rallies to be deleted. I'm not really that concerned! A lot of the people who saw the rally topic before it got deleted will probably remember to vote in the match. So don't be surprised if Draven has the lead at the freeze. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |

Mega Man even being closer to Charizard than to Zero, let alone being close enough to threaten Charizard, is F***ING WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe beause Charizard was weaker 2010 would have you believe? And after seeing Kratos bombing...

MM could get the lead with 1 big update. --- 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2010, 2011 10 championships is not enough. ZeldaFAQs thirsts for more. |
red sox 777 posted... Some math on Draven: Suppose Draven gets 50,000 votes- less than he got against Link despite having 90 minutes extra and less loss of rallied votes to the other side. The other important factor is what percentage of votes coming in from the Reddit topic actually go to Draven. Obviously it'll be a significant majority, but it won't be 100%. I'm confident Link got a fair bet of indirect strength from the LoL topic too. --- SBAllen: the hero GameFAQs needs, but not the one it deserves. |

red sox 777 posted... Some math on Draven: Suppose Draven gets 50,000 votes- less than he got against Link despite having 90 minutes extra and less loss of rallied votes to the other side. well, even in your own analysis you forgot to give Mewtwo/Sephiroth some LoL rallied votes! |
The deleting mods are gone. The rally topic will not be deleted. Not before the match has been more or less decided, anyway. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
I'm
sure this has been pointed out but even though link lost, he's gotten
more votes than almost all of the other matches had TOTAL separately
ofc. I find that really surprising. --- 3DS FC: 1977-0529-1062 |
I kind of wish it was 11:30 instead of 10:30 right now. I fear Charizard's retaliation. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those! It could be fun! So... what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
chaos12391 posted... I'm sure this has been pointed out but even though link lost, he's gotten more votes than almost all of the other matches had TOTAL separately ofc. I find that really surprising. Because our votals have been sucking or because Link performed like LInk? --- http://i.imgur.com/PL5UKJj.png Bearer of the Mark of Kan. |
http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1m57gk/in_3_hours_draven_is_up_again_in_gamefaqs/ Report it, if nothing else. The topic is blatantly against the rules. |
Oops. I thought I was doing everything with net numbers, but it looks like I wasn't! Link got a ton of rallied votes, both on his own side and from LoL. Plus it was the match of the contest and everyone knew it- such matches tend to get much higher votals than normal matches. --- 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2010, 2011 10 championships is not enough.

Haste_2 posted... I kind of wish it was 11:30 instead of 10:30 right now. I fear Charizard's retaliation. No, time is in Rock's favor. He NEEDS some time to build a lead for the counter-rally. If we were in the final half-hour of the match I'd feel really bad about his chances. --- http://i.imgur.com/PL5UKJj.png Bearer of the Mark of Kan. |
What kind of lead can he hope to build in the next 30 minutes? --- 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2010, 2011 10 championships is not enough. ZeldaFAQs thirsts for more. |
So
I'm completely clueless about Reddit. What does it mean if there's a
dot instead of a number in the middle of the up/downvotes? --- .-#Elements of Water#-. |
Vote
totals for tomorrow's match will lower than Draven's last match, but I
think we might see anywhere between 70000 and 100000 votes tomorrow. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |

Because it sounds better than simply 'Mega' when cheering him on. He's Megaman to me, but I need my cheers to have a good ring to them for them to be worth something! --- http://i.imgur.com/PL5UKJj.png Bearer of the Mark of Kan. |
