WhiteLens posted... TheOneAboveAll posted...So the rally thread is being allowed back with no direct link to the poll in it. Interesting. I wonder why the mods have ignored that one? --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
OK, now we are talking. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
We are reaching TNA levels of overbooking now. |
Whoa, that update really surprised me there. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |

"All
- we've had another discussion with the GameFaq admins and determined
that this type of rally is not against the rules of the contest and will
be allowed. We apologize for the temporary confusion." --- POKEFEAR |
Uhhh guys... --- KB |
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdHhOZHOBfs Feels so gooooooooood --- The official OnionOfMystery of Reality. "Vaan is like a Robin in a universe composed entirely of Batmans." |
Welp, bout time for me to go into hiding for a while. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
this contest --- twitch.tv/bonedragons |
This is going to be awesome. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
Oh no. --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
Are
you kidding me??? Are you kidding me??? The one Allen decision the
board as a whole was happy with (even if I personally didn't like it),
and he goes back on it?? That's... FREAKING HILARIOUS!!! |
It's absolutely not legitimate I think this is just the more hardcore Europe stuffers waking up. The rally topic being remade is just part of the cover. It'll probably get taken back down again soon too. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Knew it was too good to be true. :-( --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
Looking
at that update, it looks like Mewtwo got some rallied votes from the
topic being restored. As you can see by Mewtwo's vote intake going up
on that update. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
From Sabotaged Draven to Ultimate Draven in the blink of an eye. Will Mewtwo's lead last the hour? Outlook looks hazy! --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
Welp, gg contests. --- ~War~ |
From the restored rally thread: All - we've had another discussion with the GameFaq admins and determined that this type of rally is not against the rules of the contest and will be allowed. We apologize for the temporary confusion. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Unreal --- Can anyone provide me with a decent challenge!? |
poor sephiroth --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
believe in the power of the pokemon asv believe --- twitch.tv/bonedragons |
Figured it wasn't Allen who contacted them. Someone's gonna get a talking to. --- Not so Gr8 anymore. |
Well,
looks like the Round 2 stuffer is back. Oh well. And this contest was
heading back towards (but never reaching) legitimacy. |
Allen just realized he had Draven in his expert after all! :) --- Watch me play games! http://www.twitch.tv/lordofdabu |

Also
how I understand the mod system on reddit is basically just random
schmucks being given the mod position by the creator of the reddit. So yeah basically it's the US mods say no, Europe based mods wake up and say "screw that noise" That also gives credence to the idea that the thing about GameFAQs staff requesting no more rallying was either a lie or a fake --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
My guess was that it wasn't Allen who contacted them originally. It was probably some random moderator. --- Watch me play games! http://www.twitch.tv/lordofdabu |
Wanglicious posted... Funny thing, I don't think he'll win, but Mega Man *is* the winner we deserve. He'd be the actual "plucky underdog" story. I mean NO ONE would have imagined Mega Man would be in contention to win the contest. He wasn't the only one. I went toe-to-toe with basically the entirety of the CSaD crew in discussing what could have been a huge abnormality in the stats (but wasn't) that suggested MM was vastly underrated in 2k3. Now, granted, I was wrong... but It'd be pretty cool to see MM win all these years later. --- SuperNiceDog had a super nice bracket too. |
I for one am looking forward to our true finals, Samus v Mega Man --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
Well, game over for Mewtwo. At least now we can have a Draven vs. Link bonus match at the end. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
LordOfDabu posted... My guess was that it wasn't Allen who contacted them originally. It was probably some random moderator. I imagine it's more likely, if it was anyone at all, to just have been a random user. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?

xp1337 posted... LordOfDabu posted...My guess was that it wasn't Allen who contacted them originally. It was probably some random moderator. How were they duped into believing a random user was a GameFAQs administrator? --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
This is just sad. We went from an awesome and unpredictable finish for all of 2 and a half hours to the easy Draven win. --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
If
it was a different admin who requested the rally thread be taken down
and then Allen overruled them, well, it would just be another case in a
long line of Allen siding with reddit over us. Nothing new here. |
man
isn't this like literally the exact same time it started in Jak's
match? at least this time i'm awake it won't completely catch me by
surprise when i wake up to see Draven winning. --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |

I don't know, but I just have a hard time thinking a mod took action here! How many mods care about the contest? --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
XIII_rocks posted... This is just sad. We went from an awesome and unpredictable finish for all of 2 and a half hours to the easy Draven win. At least this way it's fair and balanced.

Somehow I doubt Mewtwo makes two 5000 vote comebacks in the middle of the day. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Mods doing silly things they shouldn't is nothing new. :) --- Watch me play games! http://www.twitch.tv/lordofdabu |
KamikazePotato posted... Somehow I doubt Mewtwo makes two 5000 vote comebacks in the middle of the day. If only it had been Link in this position! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
lol so much for deleting rally threads --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baUY9LFlYh0 - KokorokokoroKOKOROkokoROKokoro-chan iu na http://myanimelist.net/animelist/raytan7585 |
I had a feeling they were duped. Actually I was kind of hoping they were duped. --- FFIXOwner Bracket: 169/243 Expert: 648 (lol?) |
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HopeSpot First update after I wake up was the one the rally returned on. I saw e poll and got legitimately excited, then, calamity. I FREAKING HATE RALLIES. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
The Owner of FF9 posted... I had a feeling they were duped. Unfortunately it didn't last longer. God, I hate everything. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
Despite
my dislike of Draven, it was the right call reversing the decision. The
rules can't just be altered during the contest like that. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
Oh, that is laughably absurd. 19-27-62-62-64 --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
