Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1197
spooky96 posted... Lets wait for a more cuts before we celebrate. Who else picked ME? I did. I picked ME on the first day without thinking, outside of FREAKING MARIO I saw basically no reason to back Mario in this one. --- sig pssssssssssst - http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/568795-soccer-challenge |
Dat 29 vote update. I wonder if there's a Mass Effect rally going on--it was a pretty noticeable jump for these last updates. --- This was my signature, but Raytan, 2013 Guru champion, took it away. |
54 votes in 10 minutes. This match is beyond over unless the day vote saves Mario. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
Wow, maybe I'm just scarred by the agony of TTYD/Symphonia but where the hell did ME pull this accelerator from? so many votes cut so quickly relatively speaking --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
29 more votes, and we surge through 48%, just 25 minutes after breaching 47%. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |

I
had Galaxy 2 initially, but I always felt like ME1 was a good upset
pick. Switched to it shortly before lockdown. I suppose it'll balance
out with switching to Symphonia if it works out. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Holy crap that update --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |
We can definitely call a trend now! --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
xp1337 posted... Wow, maybe I'm just scarred by the agony of TTYD/Symphonia but where the hell did ME pull this accelerator from? Mass Effect actually has a night vote to speak of, I'd imagine. We're getting close to the Euro zone. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
So Minecraft is done, and ME is going to win. RIP bracket. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak PSN ID - Kudaark Steam Name : skaalfa |
No
easy way to find the List of All Polls link during contest season I
think? So I added one to my site's left menu for my own reference, maybe
someone else will find that useful. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
50 votes in two updates. Keep up anything remotely like the recent pace and it'll be well ahead come morning. It'll need to be. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
pyresword posted... Dat 29 vote update. I wonder if there's a Mass Effect rally going on--it was a pretty noticeable jump for these last updates. The last 4 updates are 101, 106, 100, 100. It really comes down to the day vote and whether Mario prevents Mass Effect from building up an insane lead. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
SMG2
was in serious trouble when it lost an update within the first 20
minutes. Right now, almost 100% of its remaining lead is from the first
15 minutes......which is heavily dependent on brackets. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |

You guys are aware this is just Mario dying, right. The POWER HOWAH is over. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
Here's the trend chart from the GotY 2010 poll: Time | GoW III | ME2 | Galaxy 2 EBV | 18.03% | 43.35% | 38.63% PHV | 20.62% | 45.59% | 33.79% FNV | 22.27% | 45.89% | 31.84% BSV | 23.96% | 44.29% | 31.75% DSV | 22.95% | 43.44% | 33.61% ASV | 23.86% | 44.26% | 31.88% SNV | 23.42% | 44.59% | 31.98% This GotY poll took place on the weekend, so it would provide a relevant comparison to the trends of today's match. Galaxy 2 does well in the morning. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
UltimaterializerX posted... pyresword posted...Dat 29 vote update. I wonder if there's a Mass Effect rally going on--it was a pretty noticeable jump for these last updates. Ok yeah that doesn't seem like a rally. I've only been looking at the difference between votes since it's less work for me. --- This was my signature, but Raytan, 2013 Guru champion, took it away. |

Is... this a ME rally? Seems a little too sudden. |

We're finally getting a match that won't be decided within the first hour, thank goodness. --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |
25
votes isn't a spectacular cut. Just a good one. It's been stalling for
40 minutes. Then it cut 10, now 25, 25 again. This is normal. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
spooky96 posted... Is... this a ME rally? Seems a little too sudden. the vote totals for ME look pretty steady. Its mainly just Mario dying --- http://steamsignature.com/card/0/76561197979294707.png |
Meanwhile
Halo is hovering at about 600 over Minecraft. If it keeps minecraft too
close, it could lend itself to a comeback via rallying. --- Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. |
This match has exactly as many votes as FFVII/Journey. No real signs of a rally here. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
I
really need to finish the Mass Effect trilogy. I didn't get far in Mass
Effect 1 since I got sidetracked from the main story easily and it took
my time to get used to the mechanics. Should give it another go. --- http://img.imgcake.com/whatisurnameplz/kermitgifre.gif Oh yea, I guess raytan won. |
It feels nice seeing an actual comeback again. It helps that it agrees with my bracket, but really just nice to see in general. (DQ8/Persona doesn't count. Happened too fast) --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
guffguy89 posted... Meanwhile Halo is hovering at about 600 over Minecraft. If it keeps minecraft too close, it could lend itself to a comeback via rallying. Eh, Halo has been gaining pretty consistently for a while. I think it's safe. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
if Mass Effect can keep this up until morning time, it will win this match. Book it. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima raytan: Champ without picking the champ |

So
what size lead does ME need by morning to feel reasonably safe? 800?
Would 600 be enough. It will probably win even if the lead is only
400-500, but what does it need to really feel safe? --- Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs |
there's that 14 vote update i was talking about. just a little late. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
UltimaterializerX posted... Although I love Sovereign claiming reapers have no beginning and no end. Harbs must not have given everyone else the low-down. Nah, just typical intimidation tactics. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
ME1 totally died on that update. Galaxy has been pretty steady in its vote intake over the last 30ish minutes. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Oh no ME dont do this. |

Yep Mass effect has a reddit rally building a little steam https://www.reddit.com/r/masseffect/comments/3rz6c1/vote_for_mass_effect_in_the_gamefaqs_best_game/ --- Play Earthbound And Dragon Warrior(Quest) 7 |

PSI_NESS posted... Yep Mass effect has a reddit rally building a little steam In all seriousness, I think there's a lot of pointing to rallies too quick here as an explanation for whatever is happening. I really think that we'll know it when we see it. this isn't it. at least not yet. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
