charmander6000 posted... Folks don't think he'll extend it 90 min?? Um...are you serious? --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
TheOneAboveAll posted... Extending the poll would be the worst thing for Link. It could give a Draven win potential legitimacy. Link was gaining a heck of a lot more per update than he would with any 90 extra minutes at the end. The only fair thing to do at this point is to re-run the poll. How would it be fair when Sballen stated he has found no evidence of any attacks or stuffing? --- nt |
UltimaterializerX posted... Baseman said he won't. Shaving votes from Guybrush wouldn't anger Reddit, so no issues there. ****ing Draven over in one way or another though? That'd cause a Riot. --- "A game with amazing story and mediocre gameplay usually beats a game with amazing gameplay and mediocre story." - Vlado, Gaming Expert |
It's over. --- http://www.xboxlc.com/cards/sig/newblack/BOBtheMASTER.jpg Could care less = you care at least somewhat. Couldn't care less = you don't care at all. |
Um...are you serious? Considering the only reason has been squashed, yes. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 119/162 Today's Pick: Link |

What's this Riot thing? --- Natwaf will win this year's Guru Contest! (Yeah Right) |
ExThaNemesis posted... Just to clarify, the people kissing Allen's ass realize that he basically said 'lol who cares' about the 90 minutes of downtime that are literally costing Link the match right? You are making this victory so much more awesome. Thanks. :) --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC |

IIRC, he has extended or rerun a battle for a simple 5 minute hiccup beforehand. So theoretically, he should rerun for a 90 minute outage. But he likely won't --- The Dude Abides... http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/2298/thedudewallpaper.png |
where did allen say all this stuff ppl keep referencing? link? --- -_-...-_- ...-_-... Bera:12x Ice/Lit Mage |
Pram_the_Oracle posted... What's this Riot thing? Riot is the company that made LoL, which Draven is from. --- The official OnionOfMystery of Reality. "Vaan is like a Robin in a universe composed entirely of Batmans." |
Guys,
it doesn't matter whether the missing 90 minutes were an attack or a
coincidence. The fact is that the site being down potentially changed
the outcome of a match. The only fair thing to do in such a circumstance
is to re-run the poll. It's been done before. It really has to be done
now. |
charmander6000 posted... Um...are you serious? I mean because of the downtime. It means it won't be a 24 hour poll, since people were prevented from voting for over an hour. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
This was supposed to be a 24-hour match. It wasn't. It was a 22 and a half-hour match. --- POKEFEAR |
Honestly, we'll never know what would have happened if Link eventually did overtake Draven. We've yet to see how Draven would deal with a comeback actually being completed on him. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
I just want Link to finish strong. He should be able to get under 1000 if he can keep this up. |
Ohh, a pun. --- Natwaf will win this year's Guru Contest! (Yeah Right) |
If there was ever a time to rerun a poll, I would think this would be the time. |
The chances of Allen rerunning this match are approximately 0.00005% --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
welp, that's it then. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |

Done. --- nt |
Well, that's it, unless Bacon decides to take action. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
This
is a win for both sides really. Draven moves on, but at least Link
fans can take solace in knowing that Link proved he can not be beaten
1v1 on this site. |
*balloon deflates* |
Damnit, what happened? This last hour has been awful, but there was one good update about ten minutes ago! --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |

Karma Hunter posted... No, he hasn't. CJayC has, back when he was in charge. But if you haven't noticed, Allen isn't Ceej. My mistake then. I just know it happened. I don't know when or under who, so yeah. --- http://i204.photobucket.com/albums/bb303/metallic_trance/NuAndMare.png Many thanks to Metallic_Trance! :3 |
So much rallying going on for Link and yet he couldn't even beat Draven, pathetic showing. |
The r/gaming rally is up to page 3, at #72. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
Guys, we should have a rematch tomorrow so that Draven won't be able to rally as hard. That way it'll be more fair! --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC |
I am so psyched right now. I am so happy with how this is going.. still all to play for though. --- I dare do all that may become a man. Who dares do more is none. |
wakeuptogashi posted... This is a win for both sides really. Draven moves on, but at least Link fans can take solace in knowing that Link proved he can not be beaten 1v1 on this site. No one cares about that. Most people here would prefer Link to not win it all... We just don't want reddit to determine who does. --- SephirothG post http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1268566/awwyeah.gif |
So much rallying going on for Link and yet he couldn't even beat Draven, pathetic showing. Draven couldn't even break 60% after last round, pathetic showing. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 119/162 Today's Pick: Link |
It was looking so good...this last hour just killed it. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
LaqOfInterest posted... Oh hey, Draven's gaining again. LaqOfMercy --- The official OnionOfMystery of Reality. "Vaan is like a Robin in a universe composed entirely of Batmans." |
The r/gaming rally rising quickly. It's up to #70. |

It's a shame, but even I have to admit it. Link's done. It took 90 minutes of the site being down during his strongest time though. Link would have won if the site didn't go down. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
Yeah,
the fact that Draven couldn't even match his 56k votes from last round
in twice the amount of time calls the Round 2 match into all kinds of
question. Doesn't matter, but still. --- i'll do rydia -Dante |
Save_us.reddit --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
No reason to stay up any later. Hopefully I'll wake up and see Mewtwo at a decent first place, but if not, no biggie. It's been fun watching the board implode upon itself. Because as friendly and nice as you guys claim you are, you really aren't when this kind of stuff happens. At least I freely admit I'm an ass. Cheers. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
Both
sides did amazingly well here. Draven is looking to pad his lead up
high enough to show that he might've been able to win the 24 hour poll
outright (assuming the 1000 votes/hour pace was real), and Link proved
that he's still one of the site's most powerful forces. And now, this
match has set the stage for a future contest. 1v1, no one knows what
might happen when Legend of Zelda and LoL collide. Feels good to have
debatable finals in our future again, man. --- http://i.imgur.com/PL5UKJj.png Bearer of the Mark of Kan. |
