Vayu_The_End posted... Karma Hunter posted...Man the Undertale fanbase got hyped for an impossibly hard final showdown that didn't really pan out. <.< Yeah this. We are viewed as the establishment but we're just an aging website that like contests. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
Lead above 20k. Match over CONFIRMED |
ZFS posted... And I say this as I get ready to spend $6 on Cloud in Smash Bros! Get back to me after playing as him for the first hour --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
Julian_Caesar posted... Lopen posted...You know I probably shouldn't have wasted time on that. I think it was more for my peace of mind than anything. Well I mean, sure, I'm not saying no explanation exists Just seems weird that Chrono Trigger/Smash would have trace amounts of this and every Undertale match would have 30-40k consistently. Coincidences, man! --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
The
5:40 PM update was pretty interesting. Undertale spiked up to a 373
vote update, while OoT spiked up to a 311 vote update. Not sure what
could have caused that. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
Karma Hunter posted... Anyone think Cloud can make it interesting against Link as the Smash 4/Remake hype begins to swell?Nah. This site's opinions on Cloud and FFVII are too set. Nintendo voters in general never hated Solid Snake, they just weren't very familiar with him so the greater exposure from Brawl actually mattered. But Cloud is still The Enemy and most other voters won't care. I feel that until Square-Enix actually delivers the FFVII remake and unless it is actually well-received, it won't do much. The vast majority of people have already made up their minds about FFVII and there's a lot of distrust in Square-Enix actually delivering something great at this point. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO DpObliVion NO PEACE] (edited 12/15/2015 2:47:37 PM)report |

Smash Direct just ended. It may have cause a spike in traffic. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
That probably makes sense, since Undertale gained 0.07% while the Smash Direct was taking place. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |

Not sure what could have caused that. And yet OOT still lost that update even though the people that watched the direct are Nintendo fans --- 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |

don't want Ocarina to win. Even among registered users Undertale's
doing significantly better than it has against every other opponent it's
faced up to now. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |

Karma Hunter posted... People don't want Ocarina to win. Even among registered users Undertale's doing significantly better than it has against every other opponent it's faced up to now. I'm starting to think might just be because we've had so many new users coming in because of the rally. Everywhere on this boad, I'm seeing posts by users less then a week old. That might have skewed the percentages a bit. Not a lot, obviously, especially with Undertale's bandwagon, but it's something to consider. --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
6 hours left, and I don't see OOT making a comback win. --- 3DS FC: 4382 - 2449 - 5707 IGN: Anthony |
Has it still only got that 1 vote cut? --- http://www.backloggery.com/whitelens | http://myanimelist.net/profile/WhiteLens Congrats to the last man standing in Guru, DpObliVion |

WhiteLens posted... Has it still only got that 1 vote cut? Yes, that continues being the only one so far. |
AxemRedRanger posted... So I'm assuming you disagree with some of it? I don't think voters are thinking that deeply into things. Case in point this looks like it would have been a pretty good contest for CT and FFVII if they hadn't been caught in a rally (or in FFVII's case, rally crossfire). Also Snake's Smash boost took him ultimately from, what, like sub-40% on Link to 46.5%? Link's clearly getting a lot of default votes that simply a token appearance in a Smash game can to a large extent nullify. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
Undertale should fall off in the last hours. So OoT should be able to make a slightly less pathetic cut , and look slightly less horrible ! |
Averia posted... So OoT should be able to make a slightly less pathetic cut , and look slightly less horrible ! No. We must honor this single vote cut. It's something special, I feel. --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
Averia posted... Undertale should fall off in the last hours. Honestly, that would be the worst possible outcome here. A ridiculous blow out where OoT only cuts 1 vote is interesting. OoT coming back and making ridiculously huge cuts to make it close or even win is interesting. Anything else is just not. |
UltimaterializerX posted... GEEETTTTTTTT It really did. I though that there was a chance that there would have been a match after work. No iota. --- What's wrong with the world these days is people don't have any common sense. http://i.imgur.com/4p4wGOs.png |
OoT's moral victory should be to do better against Undertale than Mass Effect 3. --- http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q155/Gamecubesupreme/sf7y9s.jpg http://i.imgur.com/TVkqM83.jpg |

Geiki Ganger posted... OoT's moral victory should be to do better against Undertale than Mass Effect 3. It would have to cut almost every last vote off Undertale's lead to do that. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
OoT's goal should be to pass FFVII in the raw X-stats. If it can't do that, it has truly fallen. --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
Bacon
responded to my feedback ticket - only new piece of info we got is that
each game will only be in the poll once. That more or less confirms
there being multiple matches tomorrow, which is cool. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Is this the first Ulti-style blowout that is actually a blowout? --- http://i.imgur.com/yrqRzHJ.gif DpObliVion gets to hang out with my sig waifus for winning the 2015 Guru |
Well
they are unofficial matches right? So anything goes. Howeve there will
be spillover so that means we will have strange results. --- 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! |
Geiki Ganger posted... OoT's moral victory should be to do better against Undertale than Mass Effect 3. It would be moral victory to do better than Fallout at this point. --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
KamikazePotato posted... Bacon responded to my feedback ticket - only new piece of info we got is that each game will only be in the poll once. That more or less confirms there being multiple matches tomorrow, which is cool. Hmm, interesting. Anyways, I'm trying to get an Oracle Challenge prediction topic set up with a fairly good listing of the possible matches that could happen. I've got like 10 possible matches on my list right now. This is the list I am planning to use when I set up the Oracle Challenge prediction topic: Chrono Trigger vs. Final Fantasy VII Chrono Trigger vs. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Final Fantasy VII vs. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Final Fantasy VII vs. Super Mario World Final Fantasy VII vs. Super Mario 64 Final Fantasy VII vs. Pokemon Red/Blue Super Mario World vs. Pokemon Red/Blue Super Mario 64 vs. Pokemon Red/Blue Super Mario Bros. 3 vs. Super Mario World Super Mario World vs. Super Mario 64 --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |

That more or less confirms there being multiple matches tomorrow, which is cool. Well, he did say "grudge matches" in his topic, so that essentially confirmed multiple matches. I'm curious to see what he thinks are the matches we want to see. He says he's been on B8 a lot during the contest, so he should have some idea. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |

so oot how did you do in my absence cut a whole vote huh that's just... just great --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Wouldn't be surprised if OoT vs FFVII was one of them. CT vs. SM64/W would be good though. Or RBY vs FFVII --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
Yeah,
I'd be kind of surprised if we didn't get FFVII vs. OoT since that was
the pre-contest buildup. I don't know who else could really give Chrono
Trigger a fight based on those Melee numbers though. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
The
only things I can think of for Grudge Matches are OoT/FF7, CT/LttP...
MGS/FFT? There's not that many classic Games Contest matches lol ...waiting for the swerve at the last minute when the grudge matches end up being Link/Cloud and Mario/Crono :D --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |

I'd rather have Mario World vs. Mario 64 than R/B/Y or CT against either of them. Throw CT vs. R/B/Y just so we can see who really has the bigger rally potential. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
Karma Hunter posted... The only things I can think of for Grudge Matches are OoT/FF7, CT/LttP... MGS/FFT? There's not that many classic Games Contest matches lol Hmm, maybe I should consider throwing in CT/LttP and CT/SMW as possible matches to my Oracle Challenge prediction topic, considering I only provided 2 CT match options. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
Are these bonus matches tomorrow? --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
xp1337 posted... Are these bonus matches tomorrow? Yeah, Allen said they will be tomorrow, so enjoy the spillover! --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
I'm trying to see if he's uploaded any match pictures for the upcoming grudge matches. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! DpObliVion is the new greatone. Congratulations to our Guru overlord. |
