Do we know what the guru nom is?


Not yet, but I sent him a PM asking him to choose his Guru nom. I also recommended that he create a new topic tomorrow with his nomination choice, so the board is ready to go when the nomination form goes live on Friday.

you might want to make a topic chiding him for not checking his PMs, too, and how much you'll hate him if he doesn't

I have no way to check if he has read my PM because of his settings.

Do we know for sure that the nomination starts on Friday
I think we should find out where he lives

we know for sure something starts on Friday. Nominations being the first phase makes sense. We can't get brackets before nominations and the first match will be on 11/5/2015.

The text of the post was "om-nom-nom". It is 100% nomination start.

Considering he's used "om nom nom" for a topic announcing nominations in the past, I'd be surprised if it was anything else.

raytan: Champ without picking the champ
The one thing we need when the nomination form goes live is a site alert to let everyone know the nomination process has started. This is what a site alert looks like:

http://web.archive.org/web/20130915130253/http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5266

We had site alerts for the final 4 matches of the last Character Battle and I would like to have a site alert used to promote the nomination form and make the total number of nominations shoot through the roof.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles is not a bad nomination. It could be one of those games that misses out because people forgot about it or nominated a different Sonic game.

I'd make a rally topic for Metal Gear Solid 4 but that game is probably guaranteed to make it.

If last year's top 100 was any indication though, it probably won't have a very high seed at all.

WTF.

Well I know I wouldn't be following such a contest. Also we don't even know where THOSE games stand, and it's not like our past few contests have shown that games from those series aren't vulnerable to those from outside.

It was just a question geez don't get so defensive. You seem to stalk him and comment on everything he does as well as post his status everywhere.

This just in he signed online guys. Guys he posted something.

Not hating on you it seemed a little creepy is all

Also I apologize profusely I wasn't aware karma made someone a better poster

I thought it was one of those 99.9% definite games, and the extra nominations will help it get a higher seed than it normally would. This is GameFAQs, what other Sonic game would people be nominating?

Sonic 2. Sonic 3, or Sonic & Knuckles. In fact, the latter two splitting noms outside of the Guru could have been the deathknell for S3&K.

If S3&K is eligible (it is, right?) then why in the world would anybody nominate S3 or SK on their own? Unless, like, they didn't know that S3&K was allowed, which would be bad design on the contest's part.

S3&K isn't listed as a Genesis game in the database, so people might be confused.

Congrats to 2013 Guru champ raytan!
S3&K was flat out rejected by SBAllen in the 2009 Games Contest.

There's no excuse this time around because it actually exists in the database.

The only weird part is that SA2 will never be as popular as S3&K.

SA2 is Sonic Team's best attempt at a 3D Sonic (other than Generations, which is just playing on nostalgia). I actually am surprised it isn't up there among Sonic's most popular titles, given how much people in the 2000s loved that game.
