GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1259
pirate109 posted... Wow, unbelievable to see the underdog taking out OoT like this! Undertale wasn't the underdog |
There
was a very brief point in time where I saw Zelda getting tripled,
though. Just seeing 'Ocarina of Time 25%' was the biggest gut punch of
the entire contest. --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
Oh, yeah, it was getting obliterated in the opening minute. I posted the poll results when I voted and OoT was at 21.39%. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? (edited 12/15/2015 3:49:57 AM)report |

All right, OoT. You win. I give up. I could force myself to stay up a bit longer, but I've lost the will to. failed to get even a single cut in seven hours. the entire dead zone and nothing. OoT almost surely gets cuts later, but probably with rally support, so I'm denied even the smallest victory of unrallied OoT scoring a single isolated cut against this. truly the darkest timeline time to sleep comedy option: OoT cuts next update --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Why would anyone rally OOT? this match was over the second the first Pokemon fan said "I don't like gen 1" --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
This
was over the second someone told tumblr, "Hey, Undertale is up in a
Best Game tournament on GameFAQs! You guys should vote for it!" --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
Heck, Melee would have probably been the favorite at this point. |
Yeah
I was thinking about that. If Melee had beat Undertale it would have
won the tournament. Or Pokemon R/B/Y for that matter. Sure OOT is the
strongest game but you can't rally for it. Same with CT, same with FF 7.
You can't really rally for them. --- Why do we exist?What happens when we stop existing? 124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest! But the best of all was DpObliVion! Congrats! |

I wonder if the announcement that the remake was going to be episodic hurt it's chances. |
Well,
the thing about a game like OoT is that you can effectively rally for
it just by advertising the contest. That's not enough here, but it got
close with Draven. --- Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! |
I
definitely agree that anything rallied to this point would win. This is
why I'm not never going to buy all this, "But rallies make it more fun
and unpredictable!" talk. No, they're literally the most predictable thing that can happen, and once it gets to a certain size, it doesn't even matter what's being rallied for and what it's being rallied against. --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses (edited 12/15/2015 4:41:00 AM)report |

Just woke up, did a double take when I saw the results. My guess is the match against melee caused the rally to grow by huge amounts? And I guess the final is naturally more ralliable. --- Christopher Christopher Christopher Christopher |

This is why I'm not never going to buy all this, "But rallies make it more fun and unpredictable!" talk. But you can't rally it effectively, that's part of the problem. You need to find the most immature, moronic and loyal fanbase that thinks their garbage game is better than any other. That's what happened with Draven, and its what happened with Undertale. --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
Well, I was right. When Undertale's comeback hit it's full stride against Mass Effect 3, I said: "If Undertale finishes this comeback and beats Mass Effect 3, it's winning the whole contest. Nothing will be able to stop it." People tried to argue that Fallout 3 would beat it. Then argued that Pokemon would beat it. Then argued that Melee would beat it. Then a few even thought OOT could pull it off. Silly people. Nothing else had a chance. My only regret is that I didn't figure out Undertale was the indestructible joke entry BEFORE the contest started. Ah well. --- Yay - DpObliVion is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
t_kizzle posted... Just woke up, did a double take when I saw the results. Yes, and the Melee fandom largely turned against OOT due to Toph shilling for Undertale in the Melee Stream and even this site being against OOT winning. --- Warning: I am a satirical person and don't care for other's sensitivities. If you have a problem with this, please block me and go away. |
Somewhere, Mario 64 is looking at these results and laughing. Who's the N64 king now? So long-ay, Link. Even if the biggest zelda pages did post about the contest (wasnt zelda dungeon facebook page going to or something?) the mosf that would do is maybe getting OOT to a "respectable" 45% while Mario still laughs. |
Just for laughs, what is Ocarina projected to get on Metroid Prime? Heck what is Super Metroid projected to get on Metroid Prime? --- "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
LinkMarioSamus posted... Just for laughs, what is Ocarina projected to get on Metroid Prime? Basically: If it went against Undertale, it would beat OOT. Even Mass Effect 3. --- Warning: I am a satirical person and don't care for other's sensitivities. If you have a problem with this, please block me and go away. (edited 12/15/2015 5:06:00 AM)report |
Vote
totals on today's match are starting to catch up to the Melee/Undertale
match. At this time of the day in the Melee match, we still weren't
getting above 400 votes per update on a consistent basis yet, while
today's match is already getting above 500 votes per update. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |

This is why I'm not never going to buy all this, "But rallies make it more fun and unpredictable!" talk. You might be able to do so for Superman 64 with immature and moronic people. Lots of people like to troll for the lulz after all. Heck, we might even be able to decide our presidency in 2016 this way, but I don't want to get much further in political discussion. |
Woah Zelda might break 40% mark soon Not that it's getting any cuts, now or ever But 4x% reads better than 3x% right? |
-LusterSoldier- posted... today's match is already getting above 500 votes per update. Why is this happening? We know that Melee vs Undertale was so high because it was rally vs rally, but why are we getting even more today? --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
The
Undertale rally ramped the f*** up. I'm guessing they thought OoT was
going to actually put up a fight and prepared accordingly. Notably, OoT
still has a ton of votes despite no identified rally sources, so I
believe we're seeing actual backfire. --- Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! |
It's
a bit surprising that today's match seems to have a much more normal
vote distribution per hour, considering the much higher vote totals.
Based on a normal match, we should be getting our highest hourly vote
totals (outside of the first 3 hours) between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM
before slowly declining for the rest of the day. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
MechanicalWall posted... -LusterSoldier- posted...today's match is already getting above 500 votes per update. Because who wouldnt want to come for OOT's funeral event? |
OOT above 40%. How often you say that? --- Why do we exist?What happens when we stop existing? 124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest! But the best of all was DpObliVion! Congrats! |
what does ME3 get on OoT guys --- Remember, we are eternal - all this pain is an illusion DOUBLE. PENETRATION. OBLIVION. |
More than 58% it seems. --- Why do we exist?What happens when we stop existing? 124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest! But the best of all was DpObliVion! Congrats! |
beautiful --- Remember, we are eternal - all this pain is an illusion DOUBLE. PENETRATION. OBLIVION. |
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz This is actually less exciting than, say, RBY/SMB3 was with rally influence. |
Finally voted for Ocarina I was saving it for the last update for an EPIC COMEBACK but that's clearly not happening now, so --- Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! |
WILL OCARINA OF TIME GET A f***ING CUT God damn it --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
48%
prediction for Ocarina. What should it had for the final match? I am
guessing more than 40% right? Is this the highest prediction rate for a
final match winner ever? --- Why do we exist?What happens when we stop existing? 124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest! But the best of all was DpObliVion! Congrats! |
Lol the r/gaming rally has fallen to the bottom of the second page oops middle of the third now --- Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! (edited 12/15/2015 6:12:49 AM)report |
I
just got up, and then I checked here to find Undertale with more than
10,000+ vote lead, I didn't expect that much of a gap myself. --- Warning, the self-destruct system has been activated, all personnel should evacuate immediately, 5 minutes to detonation. |
Oh wait I just realized the vote totals It's more than Smash/Undertale No wonder OOT is getting buried jesus christ --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Damn, 14k vote lead? That's brutal. --- 3DS FC: 1805-2178-2522 NNID: Scarlettail |
Nanis23 posted... No wonder OOT is getting buried jesus christ Yeah, OoT is holding up pretty well without rally support all things considered. --- Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! |
LordoftheMorons posted... No one will remember that Zelda lost 5 years later "Undertale always wins!!!" As Sans wins the next 2 Character contests through super rallies. Then we allow League into the tournament only so that it can challenge it's reign onto a 500k insane rallyfest that ends in Riot Games announcing the poll during the World Championship 10 minutes before it all ends for a ridiculous 5,000 vote swing that causes such an uproar to the likes we've never seen before. |
I
did get Zelda Universe to make a post (500k fb likes) but he just
posted a text link which isn't eyegrabbing at all. Still, I think it is
helping a bit. And I asked him to post a screenshot of the poll later
today, we'll see if he does that. I was in touch with Zelda dungeon last night so I will message them in jjh's stead. At the very least I can make oot look respectable! --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." (edited 12/15/2015 7:00:26 AM)report |
Good luck dude --- Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! |
Like honestly I would be ecstatic to get 45% at this point --- Ralliers' determination can't even hold a birthday candle to the blazing flame of DpOblivion's winning spirit! |
LordoftheMorons posted... Like honestly I would be ecstatic to get 45% at this point Nintendo direct might help if a bunch of people are looking for news and see the links. Who knows maybe Zelda U will get some news?? You never know! --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
DaruniaTheGoron posted... LordoftheMorons posted...Like honestly I would be ecstatic to get 45% at this point It's a Smash direct, not Nintendo --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
Oh yeah, regardless a lot of Nintendo fans will be on --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
At this point it feels like I'm rubbing the current state of the poll in people's faces but... Almost 16000 lead? Well I didn't doubt Undertale would be winning but I never thought it'd be for this much. I'm in disbelief and happy at the same time. |
I'm
trying to time some big posts later so hopefully Zelda can at least
make some cuts. I'll be honest I didn't expect zero cuts to this point.
Congrats to the undertale people they just really want it. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
