GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1249
Lead change indeed. SM64 can possibly build its lead here, though it definitely will not last once Undertale's ungodly ASV kicks in. |
Mario 64 back in the lead. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
guess we can call it for sm64 now --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
lead
changes and upsets for the sake of it don't really appeal to me so no I
think it is a more boring contest overall because of rallies --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
YEAH GO MY SUPER MARIO 64 I TOTALLY STILL BELIEVE IN YOU yep --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Undertale
is absolutely pathetic. Cant even win a legitimate match. How about
you lead the entire day and win normally you pathetic little overrated
indie s***. --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
pjbasis posted... lead changes and upsets for the sake of it don't really appeal to me so no I think it is a more boring contest overall because of rallies This is the future of GameFAQs contests (if they even have a future), so better get used to it! At least enough people still give a s*** about GameFAQs to actually tell people to come here and vote for games they like! If no rallies actually took off then this site would really be dead. --- Not_Wylvane |
I don't have to get used to anything, I just don't care about it much anymore. It is what it is. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
Hey at least we won't have Lady Heiress to worry about this match..!! --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Won't even let Mario keep it for more than an update --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Not_Wylvane posted... pjbasis posted...lead changes and upsets for the sake of it don't really appeal to me so no I think it is a more boring contest overall because of rallies Just like it was 10 years ago. What an awful post Also people coming to vote during a contest and pissing off doesnt mean the site isnt dead How about gamefaqs grows and we get 200k votals naturally for contests? How about rallies only effect close matches? The contests are boring if only one game gets super rallied --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... yeah especially since she's already posted about the match Yeah I know, and we survived it Unless she posts it again later and then..uh oh --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Tumblr
rallies just grow all day. It's not like Reddit where it slides down
the page and stops bringing in votes. Tumblr rallies accelerate. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |

Is this a parody? It reads like one, but it's hard to tell at this point. --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC |
SM64 setting up that 5 vote barrier. pretty sure that's insurmountable. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |

He is altering between normal posts and troll posts all the time, so it's hard to figure out when he is serious --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Wow SM64 kept the lead for more than an update! --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |

I've
never seen any problem with strong characters/games remaining strong. I
would be perfectly fine with OoT or FFVII winning every contest even
though neither is one of my favorite games. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
SSBM by the hour: 1:00 | 52.76% 2:00 | 55.17% 3:00 | 56.25% 4:00 | 53.53% 5:00 | 50.93% SM64 by the hour: 1:00 | 54.58% 2:00 | 43.11% 3:00 | 50.18% 4:00 | 49.50% 5:00 | 52.26% That is, I believe, the first time FFVII or Cloud has EVER lost a TDZ hour in a 1v1 poll. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
Today is so not fun. --- My old signature was really outdated. I haven't thought of a proper new one yet. |
If anything, I enjoy Link becoming an even more inexplicably powerful juggernaut. It's hilarious from a stats perspective. Though his seeming decline could lead to some interesting stuff too. oh well I've for the most part completely divorced my opinions on the games/characters themselves from the contest, especially at the top tiers. They're just masses of stats to me. >_> --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Kept the lead for 3 updates. Back to UT now. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
If
I could ever divorce myself from my fanboyism, I might actually win
prizes in this contest again someday! It's become harder and harder the
further this site gets away from Square! I almost pulled it off by picking R/B/Y to the finals but I still got played like a darn fiddle by FFX, my one true weakness. of course if I had rolled with my fanboyism and taken MGS3 > MGS1, I could've counterbalanced that pick a bit but oh well --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif (edited 12/11/2015 2:08:39 AM)report |

I would be perfectly fine with OoT or FFVII winning every contest even though neither is one of my favorite games. Yeah I wanted to say this as well I don't understand people that are not even regulars here in GameFAQs that say stuff like "I wish Undertale would win because every time it's FFVII or OOT, I want it to be more interesting" Hmm maybe because they deserve it? and what do they mean by interesting? I like interesting too, but this is because I enjoy all the drama here as I am part of this board But this stuff that tumblr/reddit/4chan says too and I don't get it --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
red sox 777 posted... That is, I believe, the first time FFVII or Cloud has EVER lost a TDZ hour in a 1v1 poll. Cloud/Sephiroth in the Rivalry Rumble failed to win a single hour against Link/Ganondorf, even during the TDZ hours. Also, Cloud failed to win any of the TDZ hours in Link/Cloud 2006. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
My
fanboyism is generated more by these contests than by the underlying
games. Each time CT breaks my heart in these things, I become a more
fervent fan. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
Maybe some people don't have an intense love for FF7 or OoT? I hear such people exist! --- Not_Wylvane |
-LusterSoldier- posted... red sox 777 posted...That is, I believe, the first time FFVII or Cloud has EVER lost a TDZ hour in a 1v1 poll. Cloud/Sephiroth isn't Cloud or FFVII and doesn't count. You are right about Link/Cloud 2006. Cloud only won the last hour, I remember now. Wow, trends were so different back then. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
Not_Wylvane posted... Maybe some people don't have an intense love for FF7 or OoT? I hear such people exist! Now yes. 5-10 years ago? Those games had huge fanbases here. --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
I don't have any love for Link or Zelda in general, but it doesn't really bother me that they win. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Not_Wylvane posted... Maybe some people don't have an intense love for FF7 or OoT? I hear such people exist! I think it's just that the newer generation don't care about FF7 or cloud and OoT, contrary to what fanboys will insist, has not aged gracefully. --- If my words offend you, get off the internet. |
Not like Ocarina of Time pfft what are you Karma Hunter --- satoru iwata |
That's why SNES games are so big, they age really well. --- My old signature was really outdated. I haven't thought of a proper new one yet. |
Sucks seeing FFVII lose here, but it's all part of the plan that is Undertale<Melee<OoT. <_< --- My old signature was really outdated. I haven't thought of a proper new one yet. |
Mario's fight given how hard it's going to get buried later is really something else. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen (edited 12/11/2015 2:31:52 AM)report |
Yeah
if we didn't know about Undertale vote explosion in the ASV/SNV this
could have been a great match, with how close it is in the last few
hours But alas --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
ctesjbuvf posted... Sucks seeing FFVII lose here, but it's all part of the plan that is Undertale<Melee<OoT. <_< i would laugh so hard if that happened it won't but oh my god --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
So
I've been thinking. The most powerful possible contest force would be
if League of Legends were in a game contest and the fans all rallied,
right? We're talking millions of votes in 24 hours. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
Are the semifinals dual matches as well, or just the final? |
UltimaterializerX posted... Mario's fight given how hard it's going to get buried later is really something else. I'm glad we've all dropped the pretense of this being unpredictable, up in the air, or just generally exciting in any way. We're all progressing. Undertale can now join the ranks of FF7 and OOT as one of the most predictable entrants in the contest! --- satoru iwata |
I think it depends how far out you're willing to go. If some hugely popular/social game like I... dunno, Candy Crush or Angry Birds got in and like had some in-game promotional, that'd beat it, right? LoL with Riot rallying would definitely be a contender I think. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
nopenopenopenop posted... Are the semifinals dual matches as well, or just the final? Semifinals are one match at a time. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Oh man imagine how pissed people would be if Candy Crush was doing what Undertale is doing --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |

You forgot the tags "SJW", "hipster", and "furry". 2/10 --- What's wrong with the world these days is people don't have any common sense. |
LordoftheMorons posted... Oh man imagine how pissed people would be if Candy Crush was doing what Undertale is doing It would be beautiful. Oh what could have been, gamefaqs, what could have been. --- If my words offend you, get off the internet. |

It chose to use Rest instead! --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
