Nanis23 posted... Hylian88 posted...There are a lot of anti-melee posts going around by well known smashers like leffen atm, saying that melee doesn't need exposure and to let the indie game win, so melee's going to be hurting for a bit. What instances can you think of where Undertale fans screamed at people and cursed them out for not voting Undertale? --- Don't forget about your self-care~! |

Both Super Smash Bros. Melee and Undertale also have quite a few countries that have only voted for that game. Most likely, the percentages for either aren't big enough to suggest vote stuffing. I am not doing this again, btw. --- What's wrong with the world these days is people don't have any common sense. |

Big jump there by Undertale. I don't even care how at this point, just happy for it. --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |

UltimaterializerX posted... It isn't false. My belief is you support all rallies or zero. which rally am I supporting right now bro LOL MAN WHO SAW UNDERTALE TAKING OFF RIGHT AFTER MELEE TOOK THE LEAD WHAT AN UNPREDICTABLE TURN OF EVENTS --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
This
wouldn't be the first time Melee/Smash does well in North America and
crushed everywhere else. It happens like every time Smash has a close
match. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |

Oh, sorry, I misread your post. --- Don't forget about your self-care~! |
So I voted for SSBM, but twice as many people in Qatar have voted for Undertale. Weird. --- Such a lust for revenge |
We're not getting anywhere close to the intensity and popularity of this match come the finals, are we? |
LeonhartFour posted... UltimaterializerX posted...It isn't false. My belief is you support all rallies or zero. Hey you've been consistent and I respect that. You know other people pick and choose rallies though, mate --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
Can I support rallies that are actually rallies and not support the rest of the stuff I think uhh... Melee/CT and that's it for this contest. MAYBE Undertale/ME3. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! (edited 12/13/2015 10:39:45 AM)report |

Never has there been a heated match I cared for less. --- "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
4chan deleted threads about this contest /r/undertale doesn't allow lniking to this contest anymore or talking about it And yet Understale is still pulling those massive numbers This is not tumblr There is no way --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
the best part is going to be when OoT/SMRPG tomorrow doesn't even get half as many votes as this match --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |

undertale not even caring. another big gain --- Anything is possible when your man smells like Old Spice and not a lady. |
Bury Melee, Undertale! Bury it! Get back below ME3 where you belong! --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Melee was below 400 votes on that update. --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |
LeonhartFour posted... the best part is going to be when OoT/SMRPG tomorrow doesn't even get half as many votes as this match Won't even get close to half. We're on pace to cruise past 200k.

Undertale reddit I knew was coming, they got fed up during the Pokemon match. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
If
people think there's cheating going on, we can check the Geolocation
results. It won't prove there's not cheating going on, but if someone is
stuffing there's a chance it will show up. That's how we found the Ciro
stuffer in 2013. Nothing about the numbers KCGemini posted looks off (Ciro was getting something like 99.3% in the suspicious result in 2013), but does anyone know what formula would be used to get the minimum number of votes for a region based on the percentage? There has to be something you can use. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. Congrats to CBIX Guru Winner *Raytan*! |
Anyone mind being productive and actually post where all those votes are coming from? A twitter rally, a tumblr rally? anything? because all I see on tumblr are the same posts with about the same number of notes --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
LeonhartFour posted... the best part is going to be when OoT/SMRPG tomorrow doesn't even get half as many votes as this match I am way more excited about this match! --- satoru iwata |
Mango is at an eagles game noooooo. Melee will have to fight back later. --- www.twitch.tv/Hylian88 www.twitter.com/Hylian88 |
The
match is all over Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, and more places. Even if
some spots try to stop the momentum, it's just too much at this point.
Any gamer that is on Twitter would notice this match by now, constant
retweets or anti-Melee people from UT fans will lead to surges. Maybe there's cheating, but it seems plausible to me that it's legit. --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |
Scarlettail posted... Melee was below 400 votes on that update. I guess the Melee stuffer only had 2 matches to perfect it's bot while the Undertale one has been polished since round 1. |

The
Cirno stuffer was found cause they were not good at it. It is
definitely possible to be more subtle about it as far as geolocation
goes. Most cheated votes are probably from the US here. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Undertale rallies are ****ing everywhere. Here's one I found on the Trivia app, QuizUp: http://i.imgur.com/tz5iicu.png --- sharp. distance. |

So, I don't know why I tracked this, but I have. My Games Ownership Stats: Pre-Contest Undertale (PC, MAC): 215 total votes (Owned by 244 users) December 5th Undertale (PC, MAC): 649 total votes (Owned by 723 users) December 10th Undertale (PC, MAC): 793 total votes (Owned by 880 users) December 12th Undertale (PC, MAC): 882 total votes (Owned by 980 users) December 13th Undertale 1:08 PM (PC, MAC): 932 total votes (Owned by 1037 users) GameFAQs Ratings: Pre-Contest: 4.56 / 5 Directly After Super Mario World Match: 4.48 / 5 Directly After Pokemon RBY Match (December 10th): 4.43 / 5 In Middle of Mario 64 Match (December 11th): 4.40 / 5 After Mario 64 Match (December 12th): 4.40 / 5 In Middle of Melee Match (December 13th, 1:08 PM): 4.39 / 5 In comparison: Pre-Contest Super Mario Maker: 755 total votes (Owned by 1039 users) December 5th Super Mario Maker: 900 total votes (Owned by 1259 users) December 10th Super Mario Maker: 916 total votes (Owned by 1286 users) December 12th Super Mario Maker: 926 total votes (Owned by 1302 users) Pre-Contest The Witcher 3 (PC, MAC, PS4, XONE): 2688 total votes (Owned by 3459 users) December 5th The Witcher 3 (PC, MAC, PS4, XONE): 2885 total votes (Owned by 3789 users) December 10th The Witcher 3 (PC, MAC, PS4, XONE): 2920 total votes (Owned by 3855 users) December 12th The Witcher 3 (PC, MAC, PS4, XONE): 2931 total votes (Owned by 3870 users) Summary: 1. Undertale's ownership ratings have skyrocketered throughout the contest, far outpacing even other extremely mainstream, popular games. 2. Undertale's GameFAQs rating has dropped dramatically after every contest match it's had. 3. Undertale has a very high Rate : Own ratio, meaning it's likely that many people that have rated Undertale do not own the game. This is likely a combination of many of the fans having watched LPs and such, as well as many people on GameFAQs giving the game a poor rating out of contest spite. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Well yeah true, but with everything going on in this match, there might be someone somewhere f****ing up for one side or the other. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking?

You also can't keep up with streams, where people constantly play Undertale. If someone posts a link there, expect a surge. --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |

UltimaterializerX posted... Nanis23 posted...Anyone mind being productive and actually post where all those votes are coming from? But by making it mainstream, how is Undertale winning? It's playrate isn't THAT big It might be big, but comparing it to Melee is insane --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
I
think I am going to stop checking updates for now, it's getting really
ugly and Undertale will have it's biggest lead in the match in 4-5
updates --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Hylian88 posted... Hmm, I can't get in contact with one of my powerhouses :/. I'll try again in a couple of hours but looking less likely now. Should have just not posted about it lol. .... .... .... Damn it Hylian, I believed in you! --- "This place has a nice view of Hod. And also... I promised someone." - Asch, Tales of the Abyss |
Well some of them will be votes for the "underdog". Undertale's rallying strength means it is in no way an underdog but outside perception sees system-selling classic megahit SSBM vs. tiny new indie game. It's easy to see why non-Undertale players might vote for SSBM. But it's also relying very, very heavily on those to maintain its strength and I don't completely buy it. --- Such a lust for revenge |
I'm counting on you, Hylian! Melee is getting behind, gaining that underdog/comeback status. It needs to rally and plow through Undertale. --- NEW YORK METS - 2015 National League Champions |
1300 vote lead now. --- Anything is possible when your man smells like Old Spice and not a lady. |
Melee is also a somewhat old game now. Rallying younger voters who don't play many Nintendo games can help Undertale. --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |
