GameFAQs Contests
ZeldaTPLink posted... I hope nobody ever says that to you when you are in an off time tbh.Allen is an Essential Worker and needs to do all he can during these trying times Without GameFAQs Contests, all of society would be adrift It's Reyn Time. |
ZeldaTPLink posted... I hope nobody ever says that to you when you are in an off time tbh. so if allen's work day starts in 10 hours, you think it's fine if he doesn't say anything about it for that whole duration? i've worked plenty of jobs in the past and there's been plenty of times i've done work-related s*** in my free time. sometimes there's exceptional situations. and an "uh sorry guys i don't know what the problem is" post literally takes 5 seconds to type.

Has noone even alerted him? Like seriously noone can message him about this? Even if he can't do anything remotely. He surely has to address it and notify people whats going on |
LeonhartFour posted... Trend charts: A bit early to be doing trend charts when the 2 matches are still technically accepting votes. The extra votes would barely affect the TDV results (maybe a 0.01% shift at best), but it would affect the number of votes that the TDV ends up receiving.

Nah SB is fine. We're giving him some s*** for this and it's earned in that playful way but I'm not stressed here. If this was mid-match though and had an apparent impact on a close match though, that'd be different. As is, he can start it back up today or tomorrow, whichever's fine.

Next thing we know, the user called COVID-19 wins the contest and strikes another low-blow by not giving inside workers a break. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |

At this point, my money's on "24 hour break". Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
CaptainOfCrush posted... At this point, my money's on "24 hour break".It would be the most sensible thing to do, since RE2 vs. Bloodborne is debatable enough you don't want to marred with Mario vs. Crono shenanigans.

Oh what the hell Game of the Decade 2 Current Score: 108 ... maybe? |

You're assuming SBAllen even knows about the problem already. If he doesn't, he can't respond about it. Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
Allen
actually knew this was going to happen and let it. He's currently
sitting in a black leather chair, laughing to himself as he pets his cat
and plays the Stats Topic Drinking Game. Every time someone complains,
he takes another sip of Chardonnay. It's Reyn Time. |

The
poll is up guys! Except Bloodborne was replaced by Chrono Trigger and
RE2 was replaced by Smash Bros Melee. Currently Melee is doubling Chrono
Trigger. |
snake_5036 posted... With 188 durability, BotW could skewer the entire bracket, including itself, and skewer more games from other contests before finally having to switch weaponsIn reality it would take 2 swings and the weapon would break, requiring you to farm trash mobs for 20 minutes to max out your limited inventory in order to get through the next s***ty "mini" dungeon "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and hellboy" - trancer1 lol xstats |
How does luster have more active posts then karma? lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll |
Speaking
of that CT/Melee Match. Just looking at the Poll UPdates, i mean i was
here when it happened but god damn that must have been on CRUEL match
for CHrono Trigger Fans. IT was an easy 60-40 on Melee but Melee rallied
and won...but CT cut and put up a real good fight. That must have been
painful for CT fans. More so than FFX/MM |
There
are a lot of dead boards on this site where purging takes forever. It
also probably helps that private boards can basically be made by anybody
now. You felt your sins weighing on your neck. |
LOLIAmAnAlt posted... How does luster have more active posts then karma? Nothing better in life to do ? |
LOLIAmAnAlt posted... How does luster have more active posts then karma? Mostly from doing things like board hunting (searching through non-topicality game boards for interesting topics and posting in all of them). Of course, I also have some dead game boards that I occasionally bump, though far less frequently due to last year's update to the purge rate schedule.

Was hyped for this match today, unfortunate. Any updates? this will be delayed 1 day or resumed soon? |
LOLIAmAnAlt posted... How does luster have more active posts then karma? Luster can see the Matrix. He knows how to trick non-esential data just for fun. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
No one knows yet. We need to wait for an admin. Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
I suggest making double match tomorrow to compensate so instead of 2 its 4 and this way everything is back to normal. |
By the way, DQXI's match has 27902 votes while BotW's match has 27901. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
Advokaiser posted... By the way, DQXI's match has 27902 votes while BotW's match has 27901. 27906 and 27905 right now. They're continuing to accept votes after the matches should have ended because the matches never actually closed. Without being on the homepage, it requires some HTML trickery to modify the source code of the PotD voting form to submit a vote in the matches.

Oh, so that's what it is. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
That
is also quite possible. If they viewed the homepage before the matches
ended and didn't refresh it since then, they could still vote in the
matches that way. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |
I'm
pretty sure that happens for every match. People try and vote at the
last few seconds but in those cases the polls have closed and votes
haven't counted. Only this time they have. |
Time to go chillin' for a while: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/78607263 It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
Bloodborne winning. |
Wake up. |
MATCHES OFFICIALLY UP! @LusterSoldier , at what time did they go live? It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. (edited 4/20/2020 7:16:40 PM)report |
Ehhhh,
I would really hope neither match is close, because starting this late
is going to be controversial no matter what happens. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2020 Guru contest winner. |
BB vs RE2 seems like it'll be very close but we should wait for the next update to know for sure... |
Only a quarter of brackets had Dragon Quest going to the Division finals. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2020 Guru contest winner. |
We're 120 votes behind the first five minutes of yesterday's matches. It's Reyn Time. |
KamikazePotato posted... We're 120 votes behind the first five minutes of yesterday's matches. No matter what happens now we have to just put an asterisk beside the winners fake championship which kinda sucks |
which game would lower votals benefit in this case? (edited 4/20/2020 7:23:12 PM)report |
4
users fell off the Top 50. hockeydude15, thedragon31, LocationUnknown
and PumpkinCoach did not have Dragon Quest XI winning yesterday. Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
gamer man posted... No matter what happens now we have to just put an asterisk beside the winners fake championship which kinda sucks As long as the match is legit and isn't affected by any rallies, it shouldn't be bad. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
Advokaiser posted... MATCHES OFFICIALLY UP! Roughly at 10:11 PM EST based on creativename's updater site. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |
For a moment i thought the website glitched, nobody posted for minutes, where did everyone suddenly go idk. |
What'd be more controversial One of these games winning in a squeaker Or one of these games stomping thanks to a rally If
you're only on this board to whine about "SJWs", please redirect
whatever you type on to the nearest trash can. And hop in after it. |
