GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1216
Undyne posted... Oh, no doubt LPs play a huge factor in this. Undertale is kind of a blast to watch other people play, whether you yourself have played it or not. And pretty much every big name in the scene has done an LP by now. Ah, so what' you're saying is that Underfail fans are the millenial morons that don't actually play video games any more, they just watch cringey youtube idiots play games all day. It's all starting to make sense. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
Tumblr doesn't care for Gen 1, guys. They only like new Pokemon titles with competitive merit! o wait --- JAK The Character Battle IX people's champ. |
TyranoTom posted... I dont really understand this. Given Undertale's small play rate it stands to reason that its picking up votes from people who have never played the game. Is tumblr that hivemind? Or is it getting pity votes? I dont understand. There might be some demographic/identity politics stuff going on. This was on my dash http://nihil-descent.tumblr.com/post/133795368039/good-morning-vote-for-undertale-and-make-fake "good morning, vote for undertale and make fake nerd boys mad," If you wanted a counter-rally I think your best bet would be to go to GG boards and post something like "SJW tumblrinas trying to get their meme game to the top, strike back!" |
what if the counter rally is successful and Fallout 3 wins the contest? that'd be funny also you guys can stop responding to BT, he doesn't even know anything about Undertale and is just raging because he doesn't like JRPG types of games --- add the c and back away iphonesience |

Is tumblr that hivemind? Or is it getting pity votes? I dont understand. Same can be said about Fallout 3. Falllout roughly sold like 5 million, piracy pushes it by a couple of million at least. |
TyranoTom posted... I dont really understand this. Given Undertale's small play rate it stands to reason that its picking up votes from people who have never played the game. Is tumblr that hivemind? Or is it getting pity votes? I dont understand. Undertale can draw votes from rabid Homestuck fans in addition to their own fans. |
Were the top of the leaderboards last contest dominated by Draven pickers? Though we expected rally potential last time for Draven, I can't imagine many brackets actually taking Undertale to the end. I expect everyone to do decent with Undertale being a universal red among full entries. Still wish SBAllen would curve the points down, not put so many points on a single match at the end. Having the final match worth as many points as the whole first round is what makes contest-winning rallies so bad. You can have an otherwise perfect bracket and someone else is rewarded for picking an abstract entrant. |

Given Undertale's small play rate it stands to reason that its picking up votes from people who have never played the game. Is tumblr that hivemind? Or is it getting pity votes? I dont understand. if you count console numbers too Fallout 3 is about 10 million. Undertales numbers are nothing compared to Fallout 3 --- http://steamsignature.com/card/0/76561197979294707.png |
Undertale dropped off a lot that update...was just barely above what it needs to win. Let's see if it keeps up the momentum. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
350k is only from Steam sales. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
LeonhartFour posted... Achromatic posted...BlAcK TuRtLe posted...I don't understand the Underfail supporters on this forum. Who actually supports indie RPG garbage, complete with lame jokes and internet 'memes'. The people that are creaming themselves for that stupid game really need to play the indie games that are actually good, like Shovel Knight and Axiom Verge. Well BT is what the Reddit trolls cited as their reason to continue being asses at us, so it's inevitable that his immature whining and stupidity will be the death knell of us. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima raytan: Champ without picking the champ |

Draven was nuking stuff far worse than Undertale is and Link came *this close* to beating him with Shep dragging him down. OoT would 60/40 undertale --- Hello, I'm Chris! https://media.giphy.com/media/2ZtIpjwFFjLHLNREpCU/giphy.gif |
VeryInsane posted... League of Legends vs Undertale bonus match who wins oh god I almost want this --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
transcience posted... what if the counter rally is successful and Fallout 3 wins the contest? that'd be funny I love JRPGs. CT and FF6 are 2 of my top 3 games of all time. I just hate when nerds try to be funny. Great example of that are Portal, Earthbound and apparantly Undertale. The jokes just fall flat and the rest of the game (except in Portal's case) isn't good enough to support it. The only people that find Undertale of value, are the same people that thought 'THE CAKE IS A LIE!??!?!?' was funny back in 2007, and still quote it thinking they are original or something. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |

Oh yeah, s***, BT was the reason Reddit s*** up the board. I knew there was something I was forgetting. --- http://i.imgur.com/0JdOe85.gif http://i.imgur.com/GzqvnBq.jpg |
Lots
of overreacting here. Still a long ways to go, and no big, 200 vote
cuts yet. I like UT, but the odds are not in its favor still. --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |
Tohoya posted... TyranoTom posted...I dont really understand this. Given Undertale's small play rate it stands to reason that its picking up votes from people who have never played the game. Is tumblr that hivemind? Or is it getting pity votes? I dont understand. I actually started the game up for the first time today and can definitely see why it would appeal to this demographic. Its almost an anti-gamer game in a sense because it does so many things so differently from traditional games. Still even then its strength is baffling. At the end of the day its a PC exclusive indie title with a 300k playrate and to pull off a rally like this is ridiculous. |
It's
not slowing down enough, really. Stop making calls on single updates.
The same thing happened against ME3 and look how that went. --- My old signature was really outdated. I haven't thought of a proper new one yet. |
Undyne posted... Oh yeah, s***, BT was the reason Reddit s*** up the board. I have no idea what you're talking about. The only time I post here outside of this topic is to put Oracle picks in. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
Pokemon gained 600 votes over SMB3 in the last half hour Thanks Undertale This rally also seems to help Super Mario World, so it's going to be interesting next match to see it up against Undertale (but I still believe Undertale will win) It will only be stopped by Pokemon..or OOT --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Undertale needs to cut 53 votes per update to win. Last two updates it cut 58, then 62. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. (edited 11/23/2015 11:11:45 AM)report |
Achromatic posted... Draven was nuking stuff far worse than Undertale is and Link came *this close* to beating him with Shep dragging him down. Probably unless it gets a bandwagon like LBlock did back then. Draven was basically all on the LoL subreddit but Undertale's base is too weak to carry it by itself. |
Undertale isn't really doing enough here to make me think FO3 is in serious danger --- http://steamsignature.com/card/0/76561197979294707.png |
The original post still has a very low amount of notes, it barely moved ever since Undertale exploded It's coming from a different post, but where? --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
2Dover3D posted... Undertale isn't really doing enough here to make me think FO3 is in serious danger You must be looking at the wrong match. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima raytan: Champ without picking the champ |
2Dover3D posted... Undertale isn't really doing enough here to make me think FO3 is in serious danger Fallout is going to lose this 54/46 |
Nanis23 posted...

I don't know what I was thinking. |
I rest my case. --- My old signature was really outdated. I haven't thought of a proper new one yet. |
so
if tumblr is mostly high school kids who stay up late (feel free to
correct me here), and Undertale is on pace during the DSV... yeah --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
2Dover3D posted... Undertale isn't really doing enough here to make me think FO3 is in serious danger What would it have to do? Come to your house and kick you into submission? --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
So...we don't have any counter-rallies? |
TyranoTom posted... http://nihil-descent.tumblr.com/post/133795368039/good-morning-vote-for-undertale-and-make-fake "Oh man, I didn’t know this was back. Really takes me back to staying up until 2 AM refreshing the Mario/Crono 2k6 battle..." So they have people of our own among them! --- Wild raytan appeared! He chose Samus > Mario. It's... super effective? |
Advokaiser posted... TyranoTom posted...http://nihil-descent.tumblr.com/post/133795368039/good-morning-vote-for-undertale-and-make-fake They must be destroyed. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima raytan: Champ without picking the champ |
These contests need to be nuked.Just stop them now tbh --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/330/958/a5b.gif |
Undyne posted... So. So a Dark Souls page rallies for Undertale instead of Dark Souls? I am seriously confused right now. |
Mario/Crono 2k6 though --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
spooky96 posted... So...we don't have any counter-rallies? I want to make some posts on a couple fallout subreddits but I'm not sure the best way to approach this. --- sharp. distance. |
Janus5k posted... so if tumblr is mostly high school kids who stay up late (feel free to correct me here), and Undertale is on pace during the DSV... I don't know, I think a lot of those kids are only going to see this when they get home from school, which'll be in less than an hour in a lot of places. Let's see what happens by 3-4 pm. --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
JDTAY posted... Nanis23 posted...The original post still has a very low amount of notes, it barely moved ever since Undertale exploded Oh yeah this is it, it's increasing rapidly 3027 as of this post Let's see.. --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
This is the other Tumblr: http://the-lady-heiress.tumblr.com/post/133784964769/knowing-youve-won-the-first-round-like-this --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. Congrats to CBIX Guru Winner *Raytan*! |
This will slow down eventually, so Undertale getting in those big 100+ cuts right now is important for it. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
It's clearly the result of the final boss of the No Mercy run. The Dark Souls fandom respects a fight that makes the hardest bosses in their franchise look like a cakewalk. --- http://i.imgur.com/0JdOe85.gif http://i.imgur.com/GzqvnBq.jpg (edited 11/23/2015 11:19:29 AM)report |
spooky96 posted... So...we don't have any counter-rallies? I have a great plan. We just need to trick (this shouldn't be too hard) the mods on LoL to put a link to the contest on their reddit. Think about it, how many LoL players will have heard of Undertale ? |
Is
anyone of you surprised at the difference of vote totals of
Sonic/Uncharted compared to the rest? They're at 35K while the other 3
matches are at 37K. --- Wild raytan appeared! He chose Samus > Mario. It's... super effective? |
