What's going on.

Has OoT *really* thrown in the towel?

...something is suspicious here. Something isn't sitting right. I thought Undertale would have lost some ground by now. What's going on?


OOT is currently getting a s*** ton of backlash due to being the only non Undertale game here and has generated a huge hatebase over the years. OOT has also knocked out a ton of favorites to win this contest. This has been a festering wound ready to burst. Not even Gamefaqs is on OOT's side right now.

Also, people love siding with the apparent underdog.

People aren't even that upset about Undertale taking this, even on GameFAQs. It's no Link/Draven, in terms of ginning up resistance, that's for sure.

And I still think OoT's probably tanking among registered voters, too.

I was so hyped for an epic match.

Link...buddy... I Voted Undertale but...this just feels wrong.

Oh god it really is a Genocide run

Can vouch as someone who has voted against Undertale every round that there is definitely some anti-LAW backlash

I'm abstaining on this one

No problem!
This is a cute and pop genocide of love!
I told you this was genocide Asgore.
Link, he come to town. Drunk, hopeless and ready for death lol
10,000 vote lead right as we cross the 40,000 vote barrier.

After pokemon and Melee matches this just feels so anticlimax so far.

I'm praying it to go nuts in the afternoon at least.

Maybe it's just stalling to lure it into complacency?


This was the sort of match I thought people wanted to Avoid with the Melee/OoT matchup. But here we are anyway.

Well it better start taking those chances soon.

It'd feel lame to see Undertale win Becaues link threw his sword away.
The hilarious part is that, IIRC, this isn't even our most lopsided final. 2002 was worse than this, wasn't it?

Only barely. Mario ended at 37.47% OoT has 37.54% right now.

Nope.
People would be less pissed at Ocarina if Melee beat out Undertale, but currently you have a lot of Melee fanboys voting against OOT because it's still in the contest.
The backfire rate on OOT is absolutely insane.
The Melee crowd was rallying too, so Ocarina probably wouldn't have won that anyway.
Not to mention anytime Undertale is in danger of losing, it's able to rally up enough votes to just barely get in the lead.

You're one of the only ones, to be honest.
Even Undertale fans wanted a grander grand finals than this. There's no fun in a complete s***stomp for a grand finals.

Every day the rest of your life is changed forever.
Eh, if there's any series on GameFAQs completely deserving of having no mercy at the hands of the Undertale executioner, it's Zelda. Zelda has historically been pretty much to every other game what Undertale is being to it today.

I can't imagine GameFAQs is terribly broken up even if they only have themselves to blame for that state of affairs. <_<

OoT should consider itself lucky it's not facing Mass Effect 3!

I can't believe SBAllen didn't do a site banner for the finals that was one of the main reasons OoT was going to have a real shot.

A banner isn't going to make up a 10,000+ vote deficit (and growing).

And even if it did, Undertale would just get stronger.

The banner would have made OoT look a little less bad, but that's it. The only result it would have flipped would have been ME3 (and mayyyyyyybe RBY, but I doubt it).

Not true. A yellow site banner could have made 5k-10k votes difference over the course of the match. Our traffic here is still pretty high.

I know it wouldn't change the result by itself or anywhere near it but OoT being so buried right now is making it hard to feel like rallying. Guess I just have to hope that Zelda dungeon facebook post comes through even though I took 7 hours to respond to them.

A site banner means OoT would be closer, which would mean Undertale would just rally harder!

You see, a site banner would mean OoT would be losing worse than it is now!

If the match wasn't going to be a slugfest with lead changes and stuff, the next-best thing is OoT getting completely b****slapped

A 55% or so result is just boring!

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.
Undertale crushing OoT makes perfect sense. OoT went over quite a few favorites (notably, SMRPG) and even outside of Board 8 it has a stigma of "always winning" and "overated" like most Zelda related things have.

We just got through one hell of a match 2 days ago that saw Undertale get nearly one hundred thousand votes (it got over nine hundred thousand). I question anybody who actually thought OoT (which has less of an active fanbase than Melee) was going to put up a big fight against Undertale.

Plus, if this is a Genocide run, it all makes sense. Fits the theme. Sure, OoT might come back later on but I highly doubt it will be super close. Even if it is, UT will win anyway.
I really need to stop reading the rest of the board, it's really starting to get to me.

And yet I've got nothing better to do.

Relax. This shouldn't be a big deal. Everyone should've known by now that this is the new standard for contests.

xp, you might want to take a step back and go find a nice TV show to watch or something. You're sounding pretty depressed here. I'm sorry the contest didn't turn out the way you wanted, but hey, there will be more and they're hardly all going to be decided by a rally. The community isn't going anywhere and we might even get a bonus day soon too that will hopefully have some of the matches we wanted to see. There are a lot of bright sides, even though all the doom and gloom here might not imply so!
