GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1238
KamikazePotato posted... I've been saying for a while now that Undertale's effect on the board has been making it hard to root for it! That's more the fault of people who hate Undertale than the ones who like it though, so it's making me root more for it. |
Hylian88 posted... Also, here's something interesting for Pokemon vs Undertale: He actually works for Pokemon Company iirc. Which isn't the same thing as Game Freak or Nintendo. --- RIP in Pieces GamerJM, 2007-2015. You will be missed. #UnPermabanJim |
I literally have no horse in the race tomorrow They could be rally each other into submission and I do not care I would like for them to both cheat and be disqualified or something that's the only way to end it for those dark menances --- satoru iwata |
checking
in first since the early morning. Has this just been a steady rally
from SSB or did Chrono Trigger just get an overly-inflated early vote? --- Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. |
ZFS posted... I literally have no horse in the race tomorrow I've got a horse you can back tomorrow and it has HORSE ARMOR --- http://i.imgur.com/RHvCiY3.png (edited 12/7/2015 1:15:16 PM)report |
oh ok, so pretty much no chance CT can close the gap at this point? --- Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. (edited 12/7/2015 1:15:24 PM)report |
ZFS posted... I literally have no horse in the race tomorrow I am all for a next round match where the only option is Mario 64 and a blank option just to see how many people will literally vote for anything over Mario 64 --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Tohoya posted... Nanis23 posted...The only bad thing about brawl was the tripping Obviously a lot of people don't otherwise Smash 4 wouldn't be more popular than Brawl and Brawl would have a huge Smash competitive scene. It doesn't because Smash 4 is basically Brawl 2.0. It makes Brawl obsolete. --- FFVII Remake >>>> Original. Deal With it. |
guffguy89 posted... oh ok, so pretty much no chance CT can close the gap at this point? Not likely. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
CT can still win. If someone DDOSs Reddit. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
UItimaterializer posted... I'm disappointed FFX didn't boost at all after the HD remakes. That game is great. I think "Old Square" and "New Square" pretty clearly used to refer to "everything before FFVII" and "everything from FFVII and later." The terms haven't aged well due to how old even "New Square" is at this point, though. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
_SJimW_ posted... Hylian88 posted...Also, here's something interesting for Pokemon vs Undertale: Yeah, he runs the tournaments for pokemon TCG and DS versions. https://twitter.com/AlphaZealot I mistook pokemon company for gamefreak lol. --- www.twitch.tv/Hylian88 www.twitter.com/Hylian88 (edited 12/7/2015 1:17:31 PM)report |
AxemRedRanger posted... UItimaterializer posted...I'm disappointed FFX didn't boost at all after the HD remakes. That game is great. FF9 has clearly gottten stronger. --- FFVII Remake >>>> Original. Deal With it. |
haha,
I actually bought the game (never played it before) because I was
impressed at how well it was doing in the contest. Very next matchup and
it's out.... --- Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. |
KamikazePotato posted... It's almost worse if Melee bows out next round. "Hey guys I got just enough of a rally to prevent the most exciting part of the contest from doing anything, back to OoT winning" No joke. If Melee bumps off CT and THEN doesn't give OoT/FF7/Pokemon/Undertale a run for their money, I'll be super disappointed. |
KamikazePotato posted... CT can still win. What if someone DDoS Gamefaqs from 10PM PST tonight to 8:55PM PST Tomorrow? --- FFVII Remake >>>> Original. Deal With it. |
The Mana Sword posted... ZFS posted...I literally have no horse in the race tomorrow Vote against Mario bzzt --- satoru iwata |
Tohoya posted... KamikazePotato posted...It's almost worse if Melee bows out next round. "Hey guys I got just enough of a rally to prevent the most exciting part of the contest from doing anything, back to OoT winning" ~Undertale is the only one since it's rally based. Melee isn't beating OoT even with a rally. Not like this. --- FFVII Remake >>>> Original. Deal With it. |
So assuming ALL Melee rallies die at this very moment Can CT pull it off I think it can --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
God damnit CT is 1k votes behind ughh. How can we prevent this. There has to be some way to rally for CT that no one has done. --- 9/2/13-The Hero of GameFAQs fought bravely but fell to an unrelenting horde supported by a corrupt tyranny. R.I.P. Hero of Time, 7 time CB Champion, Link |
CT would beat OoT without a rally, before OoT gets a small rally going to get the win. GameFaqs has as much passion for CT as Tumblr does for Undertale this contest. The low votals combined with heavy anti-voting would make it the best contender outside rallying. |
LeonhartFour posted... I am all for a next round match where the only option is Mario 64 and a blank option just to see how many people will literally vote for anything over Mario 64 yeah but a blank option would also be a joke option |
Of course CT can win if the rallies magically die. SSBM rallying all day hasn't even managed to break 51% on it yet. --- Goddamn Chrono Trigger |
CT is not going to let Melee get 51% on it. --- 9/2/13-The Hero of GameFAQs fought bravely but fell to an unrelenting horde supported by a corrupt tyranny. R.I.P. Hero of Time, 7 time CB Champion, Link |
CT beating OOT 1v1 in the finals is something I'd need to see to believe --- satoru iwata |
For
the record, Chrono needs to consistently cut 13 votes an update to win.
Even if the the rallies eventually die out, there will be a lot of
ground to make up. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
CT would cut enough per update to win if smash rallies died. Too bad nick isn't around to make this interesting with Facebook rallies. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
spoilers people have been trying to rally on that Facebook page a lot and it's not working it was never going to work so I'm not sure why people bought into that idea --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Was about to say comeback is real Nevermind --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
LeonhartFour posted... spoilers people have been trying to rally on that Facebook page a lot and it's not working false hope is still hope --- Goddamn Chrono Trigger |
MGS3 added 1700 to it's lead yesterday afterafter 5 going 60-40 on natural strength and lower votals. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
DaruniaTheGoron posted... MGS3 added 1700 to it's lead yesterday afterafter 5 going 60-40 on natural strength and lower votals. The problem is that Melee isn't going to stop rallying, and this would be one of CT's worst parts of the day naturally anyway. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Karma Hunter posted... LeonhartFour posted...spoilers people have been trying to rally on that Facebook page a lot and it's not working CT overperforming to give fans false hope? Seems legit. |
Regaro posted... CT overperforming to give fans false hope? Seems legit. CT is the CLG of this contest? cool |
LeonhartFour posted... spoilers people have been trying to rally on that Facebook page a lot and it's not working People ignore posts to page. It's when the page itself posts that votes boost. It actually worked earlier today and cut some of the lead at the time. It would have taken a combo of melee rally falling off too of course --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |

Will there be a rally for Undertale? I mean they are prepared for that? --- Why do we exist?What happens when we stop existing? 124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest! |
Safer_777 posted... Will there be a rally for Undertale? I mean they are prepared for that? why would there not be? |
Rallys
suck, and its annoying I'll probably never get to #1 on the leaderboard
even after having the "correct" pick today, but I hope the Melee fans
show up against Undertale and at least make that match exciting. --- My butt was devastated by raytan. 3DS FC: 4725-7987-5535 |
Undertale fans probably think they've had a good run so far, and they're fine with it ending now! or they're reverse jinxing it by running no rally due to the anticipated Pokebacklash and Undertale beats R/B/Y on bandwagon power for the biggest twist of the contest --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Assuming CT at 61% with OOT/FFIX votals: CT's lead on Gamefaqs: 8764 Melee's lead on rallied votes: 9889 Melee's percentage of rallied votes: 78.6% The apparent "backfire" rate is a lot higher than it was earlier, no doubt because CT did a bit of rallying. Based on OOT/FFIX, there are around 11000 natural votes left in the poll. If CT wins these with 61%, that is 2420 votes net. But the problem is the Melee rally keeps going and going.... --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
I
think the most realistic option is that Undertale leads after 30
minutes and the match is never even contested, completely deflating all
of us here in the stats topic. --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
I
also think Undertale is being underestimated here. There's indeed a
good chance it takes the lead earlier than before and runs with it. --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |
https://www.reddit.com/r/JRPG/ Please upvote my Chrono Trigger rally on that reddit. It seems to have 70-80 active members at any given time which could be a decent boost if it stays up there for the rest of the match. --- 9/2/13-The Hero of GameFAQs fought bravely but fell to an unrelenting horde supported by a corrupt tyranny.

Actually, I'd be relieved if Undertale just ran with it out of the gate. We wouldn't have people trying to pretend it won't win the contest anymore and I can stop caring about it! --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
