GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1243
creativename posted... ctesjbuvf posted...It's cool to see Bulbagarden tweet. Especially weird when we saw accounts yesterday which you would think would bring in a lot of votes from twitter but they just got a brief, albeit huge, spike before seemingly returning to normal |
Also
during today, the Undertale subreddit has had little involvement in
rallying because people were flooding the subreddit with the poll last
night when it first started and they got annoyed. The fact that Undertale is doing this without its fairly active subreddit is something else. |
Karma Hunter posted... now it's all down to Melee, and I bet you Melee obsessives can't do any better than this This is what a Melee in the finals bracket looks like I'm onto you --- satoru iwata |
OoT
will also be easier to rally because it's the finals, which might make
more people care. Of course, the same is unfortunately true for the
Undertale ralliers. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
creativename posted... I'm confused by the undertale_bot thing. Allen said it got a lot of votes, but it's Twitter metrics are very weak. Yet today's rally turned just about when it posted. I looked into the undertale_bot tweet and out of all of the people that re-tweeted it, the vast majority of the people that re-tweeted it have less than 100 followers, with no one having more than 1000 followers. So based on the re-tweets and the number of followers for the undertale_bot account, this tweet should be having a much lower reach than what we're actually seeing. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
https://twitter.com/Junichi_Masuda Whoa, Masuda retweeted about the match now. --- http://www.backloggery.com/whitelens | http://myanimelist.net/profile/WhiteLens http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/5086952/ |

WhiteLens posted... https://twitter.com/Junichi_Masuda okay maybe this will actually do this or not I don't know I just want Pokemon to have a Bill Murray --- sig pssssssssssst - http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/568795-soccer-challenge |
WhiteLens posted... https://twitter.com/Junichi_Masuda That is impressive. I am loving the social media contest age. This is too good. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |

Zelda is also really, really loved, too. The supreme force of Reddit had their hands full getting Draven over Link! CT is definitely in no way the bar to beat for this kind of thing. --- satoru iwata |
Karma Hunter posted... now it's all down to Melee, and I bet you Melee obsessives can't do any better than this Melee raised $100,000 for charity to get into EVO. If it pulled that hard for gamefaqs(which it never, never would lol) undertale wouldn't stand a chance. Problem is there is no way melee gets to use all it's resources because a lot of people just don't care, where as almost every melee player cared about it getting into evo. --- www.twitch.tv/Hylian88 www.twitter.com/Hylian88 (edited 12/8/2015 4:31:32 PM)report |
ShatteredElysium posted... creativename posted...ctesjbuvf posted...It's cool to see Bulbagarden tweet. Hmmmmmm...... Do you think maybe the undertale_bot's Twitter has very little to do with anything and Allen was just having a little fun at our expense? ***GASP*** --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
Karma Hunter posted... now it's all down to Melee, and I bet you Melee obsessives can't do any better than this should I save this? I feel like I should save this |
That was almost an hour ago though. I will once again point out that no one is complaining about Pokemon's rallying, and is actively promoting it. But the tone of Undertale's rally is largely "the contest is ruined", which I will always maintain is ridiculous. You don't get it both ways. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen (edited 12/8/2015 4:30:23 PM)report |
ZFS posted... Karma Hunter posted...now it's all down to Melee, and I bet you Melee obsessives can't do any better than this No way buddy I'm just that confident in Undertale Heck I'll rally alongside Melee right alongside all you scrubs, it still won't matter, no way it'll beat Undertale, no shot --- Goddamn Chrono Trigger |
nopenopenopenop posted... Also during today, the Undertale subreddit has had little involvement in rallying because people were flooding the subreddit with the poll last night when it first started and they got annoyed. That's a bit deceptive. They effectively DO have a rally up, it's just in the form of a "let's not be a******s about this if we lose" thread. It still serves to remind people that the match is today (though is probably slightly less effective due to lacking a direct link). --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
UltimaterializerX posted... WhiteLens posted...https://twitter.com/Junichi_Masuda Nothing will compare to Kojima and Hayter rallying for MGS two years ago tho |
WhiteLens posted... https://twitter.com/Junichi_Masuda Does that count as a Pokemon retweet to Serebii? --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
Hylian88 posted... Karma Hunter posted...now it's all down to Melee, and I bet you Melee obsessives can't do any better than this Even if you had all your EVO resources you wouldn't stand a chance. Heck, if even a fraction would be sufficient, why don't you try and see how badly you fail? I'll be excited to see it! --- Goddamn Chrono Trigger |

I'm guessing Melee didn't raise $100k in one day. Or 3 hours, which is the amount of time RBY will spend in this match behind. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
its the director of pokemon it has to count. someone tell Serebii about it |
By the way HM if you haven't noticed my plan is literally working --- Goddamn Chrono Trigger |
At this point I want Undertale in the finals I want it --- satoru iwata |
Thought there was a slowdown but it was just a fake update Lame --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Karma Hunter posted... By the way HM if you haven't noticed my plan is literally working I mean if it works it'll be less exciting but we get the Right Result so I can't complainb --- satoru iwata |
UltimaterializerX posted... That was almost an hour ago though. I don't care who wins either way and I dislike rallying in general. But to not differentiate between a rally and counter-rally is silly, which I am sure has been pointed out every time you've mentioned this. |
My hands are getting really sweaty now that the competitions getting down to the line. Anyone else having these problems? Pretty sure that Undertale's going to win this round yet again unfortunately, but those vote totals are so impressive I'm hoping at least some people stay to vote for the rest of the competition. --- Currently playing: Atelier Shallie (PS3) Ar Tonelico 2 (PS2) |
UltimaterializerX posted... That was almost an hour ago though. Sometimes it's hard to tell if he's trolling or just completely oblivious. Rallying to counter a rally is a perfectly valid action if you disagree with the original rally bulls***. Noone here wants to see Undertale win (or Melee now for that matter) --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
haha you guys are so desperate Undertale got this and it won't be close --- add the c and back away iphonesience |

transcience posted... haha you guys are so desperate 52% is kinda close! --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
What's the countdown watch for Mass Effect 3 once again being #2 in the x-stats --- Goddamn Chrono Trigger |

oh look, Ulti's back to being obtuse on purpose |
From
what I could tell, Melee pretty much exhausted itself against CT.
Reddit, Smashboards, Twitter, Facebook, everything was used. Stuff that
was supposed to be extremely effective, like Smashboards posting on
FB/Twitter, only produced about 1000 votes net. It's not hard to see
why- many of the people reached at the end of the day had already been
reached by earlier rallying and had already voted. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
Undertale really hulked up on that update, but so did Pokemon as well. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
ShatteredElysium posted... But to not differentiate between a rally and counter-rally is silly, which I am sure has been pointed out every time you've mentioned this. Undertale has literally counter-rallied in all 4 of its matches, so if you want to use the logic that only counter-rallies are "morally allowed"... --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
Rallied Undertale Rallied Melee FF7 w/trailer OoT Gonna be so fun. |
this thing's gonna blow past 52% unless the Undrtumblr gets bored! --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
No
point pleading self-defense with the rallies anymore, Nintendo does
this the moment it's threatened now. If Undertale had lost to ME3 and CT
had squeaked by Melee, RBY would have scared up a storm of rallying
against CT even though it's the weaker game. It's not self-defense in
these contests anymore - it's to win. So stop b****ing and WIN, POKEMON! Or do you not have enough DETERMINATION??? --- Goddamn Chrono Trigger |
In other news it'll be sad to see SOTN die to Zelda tomorrow :( --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/330/958/a5b.gif |
Masuda tweeted about the match, Pokemon got a 260 vote update, and Pokemon still got DESTROYED on that update. Jeeeeeeezus --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |

UltimaterializerX posted... ShatteredElysium posted...But to not differentiate between a rally and counter-rally is silly, which I am sure has been pointed out every time you've mentioned this. Mass Effect 3 had a rally? --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
I
mean, if you held the match during evo and had all the broadcasters
make a big deal out of it, that could get a lot more people. But its
not that easy to reach the whole fanbase on an ordinary day. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
Karma Hunter posted... No point pleading self-defense with the rallies anymore You support all rallies or none of them. There is no in between. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
