GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1229
LordoftheMorons posted... Pretty sure all of the stats topic people (and most B8 regulars besides the usual suspects) have been pretty civil Aren't you one of those people pointing out the portion of people that are voting for anti-GameFAQs reasons and saying that its indicative of the rally as a whole --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

LeonhartFour posted... I thought we determined who was the heel of this story when it was deciphered that Undertale represented the Monstars Now this is logic I can get behind --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
yeah
i'm still here waiting to see skyrim/prime, but you can't deny that
there's a dark cloud hanging over the contest now unless Pokemon can
pull off the upset. i just think that because you show restraint about literally all things that happen doesn't mean everyone else should have to sit on their hands when the contest is getting ruined again. --- *ExThaNemesis* |

"If Tumblr likes this game then you can all be assured that it's garbage at best and an abomination from hell at worst. The people on tumblr are sick and twisted degenerates and anything they're passionate about is going to cause problems." --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KamikazePotato posted... Aren't you one of those people pointing out the portion of people that are voting for anti-GameFAQs people and saying that its indicative of the really as a whole I don't think most of the ralliers are doing it "for the salt" or whatever, but it's clear that some nonnegligible fraction are. I don't think all of the ralliers are terrible people or anything. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
just call me old and ignore me, it's cool I can have my opinion the same as you can --- xyzzy |
And yeah dude I know you're exaggerating but the rest of the internet doesn't! --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
transience posted... by "we" I don't mean the stats topic. I mean board 8. But most of board 8 was very nice to Traceexcalibur and encouraging of his fandom. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
KamikazePotato posted... And yeah dude I know you're exaggerating but the rest of the internet doesn't! yeah and once i realized that my dramatics that i literally do for the rest of board 8's entertainment were counter productive, I cut it out! --- *ExThaNemesis* |
It's not like most of the Draven ralliers were doing it "for the salt" either. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. Congrats to CBIX Guru Winner *Raytan*! |
LOLContests posted... It's not like most of the Draven ralliers were doing it "for the salt" either. Let's be real here, > 50% totally were. --- Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
Well at least SMW kept it under 10000 --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
transience posted... just call me old and ignore me, it's cool old's got nothing to do with it, man. show some solidarity with board 8. we haven't been perfect, we never are, but you sound like you're giving the undertale people a free pass to act however they want while we're held to some gold standard. it's silly. --- *ExThaNemesis* |
c'mon Undertale rally spillover push TP to victory over Mario 64 and you will have fully cemented your heel status by directly eliminating one of the Mario triumvirate and indirectly eliminating the other two --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
well at least my pokeFEAR bracket might make the leaderboard tonight |
creativename posted... transience posted...by "we" I don't mean the stats topic. I mean board 8. In Round 1, yeah. When Undertale was more mortal. Case in point: In Round 1, LOLContests/Yesmar made a post about how the guy who started the rally must be awful (I don't remember the exact thing, paraphrasing). Later, when the guy hopped onto the board, he tried to convince the guy not to rally by posting this thoughtful argument and acting all nice to him. It didn't work, and today he called the guy a s*** for not listening, in a previous stats topic. The board has gotten progressively worse the more Undertale has won. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I
imagine most voters just vote and leave since they don't really care
that much about the contest and thus have no real reason to go digging
into the site. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
SecksThaNemesis posted... his "feel free to rally for SMW" bit is obnoxious trolling at best. He knows it's not possible. Could also be that he's pointing out the whole reason for the contest being run: to generate more traffic. Maybe once upon a time this contest really tried to get an idea of which game was most popular or "best" but Allen has basically admitted that it's now a method to try to boost site membership. That's how I see it anyway. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
KamikazePotato posted... The board has gotten progressively worse the more Undertale has won. god forbid the board react emotionally to an off-site rally doing literally the same thing to this contest that it did to the last one everyone should just shut up and take it, guys. --- *ExThaNemesis* |
I'm sure Allen would love us to try to bring more traffic to the site, yeah. Although he said the same thing about Draven and B8 nearly delivered! --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
You can have emotions and not act like a human cartoon, is the thing --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Most of the Draven voters were definitely people just clicking a link and voting who were probably pretty apathetic Of the actual "ralliers" who were actually actively trying to promote the rally, I think a pretty decent subset of them were doing it to f*** with gamefaqs. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
https://twitter.com/search?f=tweets&vertical=default&q=gamefaqs&src=typd this is what the internet is saying about us. can you blame them given the screenshots that are in there? ExTha, I hate the Undertale rally. I've said as much. my bracket is literally Chrono Trigger/Mario World/Ocarina/MGS which I think was the most likely final four at this point. I just don't think complaining about it or trying to 'fight back' is going to change it. --- xyzzy (edited 12/1/2015 8:57:37 PM)report |
Mass Effect 3 is higher than SMW in x-stat: ME3: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/6072-best-game-ever-day-6-undertale-vs-mass-effect-3 SMW: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/6152-best-game-ever-day-27-round-3-undertale-vs-super-mario-world I knew it, ME would destroy SMW in a match. --- Commander Shepard: He's a prothean.

the
result is getting nonsense day by day . it must children born in 2000s
who vote this , 80s kids will never agree with most results . |
LeonhartFour posted... I'm sure Allen would love us to try to bring more traffic to the site, yeah. If he wants more traffic there should be more contests! |
Julian_Caesar posted... SecksThaNemesis posted...his "feel free to rally for SMW" bit is obnoxious trolling at best. He knows it's not possible. Allen's definitely more overtly "in it for the money" than CJayC was*. Which, hey, is the nature of the game and I don't fault him for it. It'd just be nice if he toned down the snark a little. * I wasn't here during CJay's era, but I'm not oblivious to the site's history either. --- Now crack that combination: 27 99 23.

KamikazePotato posted... You can have emotions and not act like a human cartoon, is the thing Most of us aren't, and we certainly can't be held responsible for anyone that is. Or do you feel alright taking credit for Ulti's behavior the past day? --- *ExThaNemesis* |
I
do wonder why he rigged the nomination system to axe LoL. If he
welcomes the extra traffic and doesn't mind rallies, there's no real
reason to exclude LoL. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |

I honestly doubt he rigged the nominations to get rid of LoL. It probably just didn't get much support. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
LordoftheMorons posted... KamikazePotato posted...Aren't you one of those people pointing out the portion of people that are voting for anti-GameFAQs people and saying that its indicative of the really as a whole Many if not most have never played the game and are just doing what they're told. I'm glad many others here are accepting this. It wasn't something I initially realized until someone posted about it but it makes perfect sense. Most of these Tumblr reblogs are not on fan sites, they are random people encouraging their even more random readers to vote Undertale. Note that I don't at all blame those voters for doing what they are told. If someone I followed asked such a trivial thing of me I'd probably do it too. It's annoying though to think Undertale will win this contest on the backs of non-players. LOLContests posted... It's not like most of the Draven ralliers were doing it "for the salt" either. A huge portion of their posts both here and on Reddit were very antagonistic and immature. Tumblr is much more tolerable people. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I just don't think complaining about it or trying to 'fight back' is going to change it. that's fine you do you but to call your board awful because of some trolls and people that hardly ever post here is ridiculous --- *ExThaNemesis* |
KamikazePotato posted... I honestly doubt he rigged the nominations to get rid of LoL. It probably just didn't get much support. Why not just go by noms then? Was he really afraid that some joke would get rallied in noms? And if so why not just handle it case-by-case? He wouldn't even have to tell us if say, Superman 64, had the noms to make it and he cut it. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |

MP and SM64 starting pretty good. =( --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
LOL at SM64 pic |
Hope that Prime support is just the board vote... --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Good start for Mario. Votals are awesome. --- Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs |
I
think this board is generally the best place on the internet. Very few
regs have done anything to attract disdain during this contest. GameFAQs sucks, though. We're bottom of the barrel in a general sense. --- "I'll admit that I made one or two sarcastic remarks in this topic, but in all serious I akin Undertale to fascism." |
Prime is boned Its board vote has been insane this contest and it's only 55/45 This board is anti-Zelda and it's only 55/45 there too go go TP --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Yeah, Skyrim looks fine. If it can hold on well during the board vote it'll win this. --- http://steamsignature.com/card/0/76561197979294707.png |
