Undertale keeping a pretty damn steady lead so far. Has Melee just given up? (edited 12/13/2015 2:49:45 PM)report |
Arcvalons posted... LeonhartFour posted...UltimaterializerX posted...Cloud was the guru favorite. You can't. Well, the Guru and BOP is a different story maybe but for the site overall we're going by prediction percentage. Link > Cloud in 2004 was 35.39%, btw. http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/c04sum --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?

Did Undertale ever lose the lead today? --- 3DS FC: 4382 - 2449 - 5707 IGN: Anthony |
Julian_Caesar posted... Edit: no, not "everything" showed it. Please stop pretending that you had everything figured out from the beginning, juts because the breaks went your way. Are you this obnoxious in the off season too? But they did have everything figured out from the beginning. Do you think it was just pure luck that Undertale did exactly what they said it would do at every turn? Every round it got stronger. The "finite" pool of rallied votes never dried up. After Undertale beat ME3, no other game really got anywhere near beating Undertale. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
Dabrikishaw15 posted... Did Undertale ever lose the lead today? Yeah, Melee briefly retook it just before 1 PM EST before getting blown out again. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Dabrikishaw15 posted... Did Undertale ever lose the lead today? Brilefy for five updates around the halfway point of the match. Then Undertale kicked in the afterburners and that was that. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Melee actually had the lead for only like 3 updates I think when it retook the lead the other 2 updates are what it could hold onto at the beginning of the match --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |

It would be hilarious if there really was cheating but Allen wasn't around to catch it. He really hasn't been on since Friday. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
God I hope there was no serious cheating from either side. It's been such a good match. Lived up to the hype more than I expected. Seriously, 150k votes? --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/72987683 I've been tracking the match compared to the 07 final with half-hourly updates, but I'm going to bed now. If anyone wants to carry it on feel free. --- Such a lust for revenge |
if high vote totals are all we need for a good match then you should've been here for the Series Contest --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Have
any of you guys been rallied, by the way? I've had multiple irl friends
who don't come here ask me to vote for Undertale in this poll. It's
nuts. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
Shame that we're not going to hit the vote total record. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
UltimaterializerX posted... It would be hilarious if there really was cheating but Allen wasn't around to catch it. He really hasn't been on since Friday. He does have tomorrow to look over the results before he has to commit to a winner for the finals. I wouldn't really count on anything unusual showing up, though. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
No, I don't have any friends nerdy enough to ask me to vote in a contest poll. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
At
this point it would take a miracle for OoT to keep up with Undertale.
Yellow site banner probably won't be enough, and "angry Melee revenge"
likely won't bring in a large number of additional votes. I'm hoping Allen does the right thing and puts CT in whatever bonus match he runs. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
that's needlessly aggressive Leon no one's asked me, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone did. this thing has gotten pretty big. fortunately my friends are not under 21 so it's not likely to happen! --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
transcience posted... that's needlessly aggressive Leon Leon is just self hating. 10 years of me telling not him to do it and he still does it! --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
I'm
the only person on my friends list on Steam that's played Undertale
consistently. Three of them have it, but either have played it for an
hour or haven't played it at all. --- What's wrong with the world these days is people don't have any common sense. (edited 12/13/2015 3:03:34 PM)report |
I wasn't being serious! sheesh you figure tranny of all people wouldn't make me break kayfabe --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
We now trail the 2007 final in terms of votals. --- Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs |
4000 vote lead get man if Undertale can just get to 51.50% and stay there I can get a perfect Oracle that would be something worth remembering from this match --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
I
haven't been personally asked to vote in the poll, but I have seen
Pokemon players from a different community put out a general request for
RBY votes. Also when the game sorter was going around a friend of mine
made a tweet complaining about the lack of Sonic 3 and Knuckles. All I
could say to that was "we tried!". --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
TRE:
You're right that some people had the foresight to predict this. That's
fair enough, and quite impressive, even. And as Julian_Caesar said,
everyone knew this was at least possible. All I'm saying is that "It was always possible" doesn't necessarily equate to "This is a completely legitimate result". I'm just hoping Allen and co. are carefully regulating the proceedings and actually take it seriously when addressing the community, instead of giving another snarky, "hand-waving"-type response. --- Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
I'm not worried about how Mass Efect 3 looks in the stats... http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/4183-east-division-final-smash-bros-melee-vs-smash-bros-brawl ...just gotta know if Brawl would be winning here instead. --- M E N: nominate Metal Man in 20XX! http://i.imgur.com/Dr4NAeq.png |
HaRRicH posted... ...just gotta know if Brawl would be winning here instead. brawl would be winning but would trip on the last update and blow it --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Brawl wouldn't have even beat Chrono Trigger. --- http://www.backloggery.com/whitelens | http://myanimelist.net/profile/WhiteLens http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/5086952/ |
It's a shame Brawl wasn't in the contest, because I wonder what embarassing upset could have been possible. Like SMRPG > Brawl? --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! Future 2015 Guru Contest runner-up. |
And
we finally have SM64 > Melee proving that instantly folding and
doing nothing is better than making a serious effort at winning. |
Oh wow. We're ahead of Draven/Snake. Shame we aren't getting to 195k though |
_SecretSquirrel posted... It's a shame Brawl wasn't in the contest, because I wonder what embarassing upset could have been possible. That would have been a glorious result. --- raytan is the guru champ, yo yo yo He won it in the year of the draggy crow |
Averia posted... And we finally have SM64 > Melee proving that instantly folding and doing nothing is better than making a serious effort at winning. Mario wins by doing absolutely nothing. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
http://img.gamefaqs.net/images/bge20/r6/65.jpg http://img.gamefaqs.net/images/bge20/r6/100.jpg Pics are up for OoT/SMRPG. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! Future 2015 Guru Contest runner-up. |
Yeah, SMRPG pic is great. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Those are fantastic pics! --- raytan is the guru champ, yo yo yo He won it in the year of the draggy crow |
Glad
we finally a got a GREAT Ocarina pic. You'd think a game like that
wouldn't have such a hard time getting a decent match pic. --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
Man
there is so much resentment in this thread. People resenting rallies,
Melee fans resenting rallies (that are stronger than theirs),
transcience resenting Melee for what it did to Chrono Trigger, Nega-TRE
resenting the world Can't we all just hold hands and sing along as the objective Best Game Ever takes its rightful place on the throne? --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I'm not a person who makes pics, but I'm trying to think of some neat ideas for a finals pic for OoT. Maybe something iconic like Link drawing the Master Sword out of the Pedestal of Time? Or the courtyard shot of Link and Zelda in the ending? --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Yeah,
I am really proud of that Mario RPG pic. I am elated to see my second
favorite game get to this spot, so I knew I had to go all out with these
super-size match pics. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! Future 2015 Guru Contest runner-up. |

I tried rallying noms for Trails in the Sky, and Trails SC came too late! And Xenosaga III wasn't anywhere around the field! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? (edited 12/13/2015 3:24:31 PM)report |

UltimaterializerX posted... Have any of you guys been rallied, by the way? I've had multiple irl friends who don't come here ask me to vote for Undertale in this poll. It's nuts. I have many gamer friends and not one person I know has even heard of Undertale. Not one. Each friend I have mentioned this contest to (both gamers and non-gamers) said, "What's Undertale?" ALL of them. LeonhartFour posted... No, I don't have any friends nerdy enough to ask me to vote in a contest poll. Sadly, I also don't know anyone else as nerdy as me who would actually care about an internet Poll about video games. Just me. --- Yay - DpObliVion is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
Love how the two pics have such distinct color palettes. --- I like this guy - Shiny Mewtwo |
i just plain don't have friends so i can't be rallied! >_> ;_; --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |

Sorry, but I don't think Counter Strike was even nominated for the contest. (or Halo 2 for that matter). (edited 12/13/2015 3:28:09 PM)report |
