i hope we never have another contest.

in fact I would be happy just ending it right now, we don't even need to see the rest. I don't want to have to watch FFVII go through this.


FF7 went up with Smash rallies, Extha, and it's assuredly gonna go up with Undertale rallies while SM64 gets broken in half. Don't lose hope just yet. The tumblr fanbase will likely side with it.

They may as well have included LoL in this contest so that it's just rallies. I mean, that's what the contest is now.


These have been all rallies since 2002.


Ah, the glory days of Cloud/Mario. We really haven't had anything like it until Link/Draven (L-Block being too dominant to make it a match for Link and pals). This is pretty damn close, too.

Man, I cannot wait for Melee to get dunked on. No matter how much Undertale wins by, it wasn't even the rally that killed the true champion.

Absolutely not. It can maybe win if Undertale randomly fails to be near full power, but it can't hold up against this savagery.

Is it possible to put him on ignore and still see these threads because he tends to make a lot of them?
Link/Draven - 122k
Mario/Cloud - 129k
Mario/Crono 2 - 133

Nearly a +240 update, nearly 70%.

This is like watching the Splash Bros just annihilate the Pacers. The Warriors just go on the road and remove all hope. That's what Undertale is doing right now -- a Steph Curry heat check. There is no stopping it.

The good news is Undertale is probably legit strong enough now that it could beat FF7 without rallies!

Which is going to make it all the more painful when Undertale breaks 60% on it.

Pokemon fans can't decide whether they like old games or new games.

Single player or multiplayer.

Competitive or casual battling.

Singles or doubles.

Whether hacking/playing or sumulator is good or if raising your own pokemon is better.

Whether they hate Smogon or not.

Whether popular pokemon like Charizard/Lucario/etc are good or if they are stupid fanservice.

Whether <Insert any of the 18 types here> is a good type or not, and whether they like it or not.

Whether mega evolutions were a great addition to the game or they ruined the series.

Whether masturbating to pokemon is a normal thing or not.

It's INSANE.

How does this number keep going down?

And why do people keep using steam sales as an indicator of playbase? Undertale's piracy levels are through the roof, not to mention the direct purchases from the site.

I'd say OoT is doomed but we thought the same thing about Draven and Link probably would have pulled that out of his ass without shenanigans.

60? You're being very conservative. With this type of strength it could throw down 75%.

Case in point: Pokemon OR/AS board on f***ing Gamefaqs is furious that RBY was actually winning.


The best part is that the OR/AS board even hates OR/AS. Instead, they worship Black 2 & White 2 as the pinnacle of the series by far.

But really, to take a step back -- it is disappointing that these things are now determined by one-sided rallies. For the GameFAQs admins, this is naturally no issue, but if you're a contest fan it does feel pretty bad! Not upsetting, just kinda like oh that's how these come to an end sort of thing.

Honestly that's what makes this even more delectable for me. With Draven/Ryu/MMX, you knew that match was done just a few updates in. After the initial shock, you went to sleep and got on with your life.

But this? This is snatching Pokemon's finest moment out of the jaws of victory. This is taking everything our contest's resident rallymonster had to take and flinging it all back in its face like it was nothing in the space of a few measly hours.

This is beyond magnificent.

CT/Melee proved this half of the bracket deserves Undertale.

Yeah like I said, it needed another gear and it found another gear. This isn't really the Pokemon community's fault either. It's going to end near 60,000 votes and it just doesn't matter because Undertale is legion.

This rally was one-sided IN POKEMON'S FAVOR until noon, and was not one-sided when Undertale went nuts.

Both games rallied. There are reddit posts and tweets in Pokemon's favor. Undertale just rallied harder.

The issue isn't that Undertale is getting more votes this time

The issue is that Undertale randomly spiked to 400+ updates when the Pokemon tweet and hasn't gone down since then

Really does feel like there's just an array of vote stuffing bots and it's like "okay let's dial this setting up a bit... and done"

But hey, I'm just a raving lunatic over here THIS IS THE POWER OF SOCIAL MEDIA

I think ExTha could find the newest topics by looking at the "More topics from this board..." section at the bottom of any stats topic, since I think that doesn't take ignored users into consideration when choosing what topics are displayed in that section.
