kinda waiting for the GLaDOS support train to roll thru here although I figured 4th would end up being Eggman or maaaaybe Wily, although I think Wily has fallen off in popularity

Pyramid Head? Nemesis? Get survival horror a rep?

There's also always General RAAM (of course)

Rules: If you list more than 4 things I'm gonna just pick the first 4 you say when I do the tally. If you list the same character multiple times I'm going to count it as 1 vote. Be nice to others and their potentially bad opinions. Don't shove your personal definition of "Mount Rushmore" down others' throats. Don't take this topic series too seriously. If you're going to majorly change a vote please quote your old vote to make it easier for me.

Video game villain-specific rules:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/f/fcfc7f61.png
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/b/b4990d4f.png

The villain needs to have originated in a video game, so no Joker. (Dracula counts as per SBAllen).

The character needs to be primarily a villain, so no villain that switches sides to be a hero or reluctant ally. Heroes that do a heel turn and stay evil count.

I'll count King Dedede as a villain even though he helps out sometimes because he's mostly an asshole, so if you can think of similar characters to him they probably count.

If there are multiple incarnations of the villain then you don't need to specify which one. I will group all Ganon/Ganondorf votes together.

i forgot to mention, I went to the worlds biggest McDonalds while I was in Orlando. My original intention was to get a McPizza with the Rushmore ingredients but my wife yelled at me when I added pineapple because I was making it inedible

anyway it was the worst fucking pizza I ever had. I will not elaborate but take your expectations of McDonalds pizza and lower them even lower than they already were

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/0/08d48c4d.jpg

mac tonight was there he watched me eat two slices then throw it away. Turns out the pineapple didnt make it inedible, being from McDonalds made it inedible

AI image generation is getting better and better and is unregulated. It took effort and money back in the day to photoshop stock images to be purposefully misleading. Now you just need to keep writing prompts until you get something passable

even video AI is getting better and better and I dont see any major movements to limit it. It will only get worse and thats a legit concern

we are in for several years of low effort scams and grifts, more than we ever thought possible. Yes, board 8 is full of people who are going to be harder to fool, but theres already plenty of examples of the most vulnerable people in society falling for Nigerian prince scams. Imagine given the people willing to do that even more tools that are more convincing and in some cases free

I had a razer mouse with customizable side buttons and middle click

i remember it really helped me while playing left 4 dead which is the only online game I played extensively. I cant remember what I mapped the side buttons to but it was convenient

but the real value was in mapping the buttons for photoshop. Again, I cant remember what exactly I mapped the buttons to but it made me way more productive when doing creative things

gaming mouse is cool, I still miss having side buttons but it definitely is just a luxury and not a necessity because its been 10 years and I havent gone out of my way to buy another one

Oh hi, I didn't see you come in. Thanks for stopping by. Welcome to Chez Zen, the humble home of ZenOfThunder. Some of you, my oldest Board 8 friends, may know me by my real name: Rush Moore.

Thanks for participating in all of my Mount Rushmore topics. As you are all probably aware, I will be abroad the next week, visiting the exotic Orlando, Florida. I may be riding the Spider-Man ride.

While I'm away, please tend to my sitting room. Below are the previous results and nominations. Please take this time to suggest some new Rushmores and second some noms on the Google Sheet!

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uCR-viOTP-yKhRZnTyvaoXj7teKRA12gz7m-1rfmhoY/ (Two sheets)

Here's the schedule for when I return:

3/06: Video Game Villains
3/07: Cereal Mascots (National Cereal Day)
3/08: First Ladies of the United States (Int'l Womens' Day)
3/09: Sonic the Hedgehog Songs
3/10: Super Mario 64 levels (Mario Day)
3/11: Video Game Considered "Art"
3/12: Video Game Urban Legends
3/13: Rappers
3/14: Disney Songs
3/15: Cryptids
3/16: Movie Villains
3/17: Green Characters (St. Patrick's Day Special)

Here is your Bad Video Games Rushmore. Sonic and CD-i Zelda were close for the first page but CD-i Zelda got almost no support after that and fell way behind. The top 4 were never really in contention. Thank god Custer's Revenge did not make it.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/7/7817b5a4.jpg

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/f/f91b54f7.png

---------------------

An announcement: On 3/11 I am starting a new job, and I will begin posting new topics at night instead of in the morning.

Thank you to everyone who has been actively participating in these Rushmore topics. This started kind of as a joke but has turned into one of my favorite projects I have ever done on this board.

I genuinely believe this is one of few communities on the internet where this topic series can do consistently well and while we stay mostly cordial no matter the subject matter (with the exception of pizza toppings). I'm going to do my best to keep this going as long as possible. Love you Board 8.

Today was originally "bad fanbases" but as I was typing up the rules I realized how mean-spirited the topic could become and I want to steer clear of that. If there's significant interest in doing that one I'll consider adding it back to the schedule.

Rules: If you list more than 4 things I'm gonna just pick the first 4 you say when I do the tally. If you list the same character multiple times I'm going to count it as 1 vote. Be nice to others and their potentially bad opinions. Don't shove your personal definition of "Mount Rushmore" down others' throats. Don't take this topic series too seriously. If you're going to majorly change a vote please quote your old vote to make it easier for me.

Bad video game-specific rules: Please vote for games actually known for their poor quality, do not vote for something like "Final Fantasy XIII" just because you do not like running down hallways when things like Superman 64 exist. I'm not going to police this much but try using your better judgment.

Please also do not vote for games just because they have bad fanbases, as much as I'd like to see League get dumped on, the game isn't actually bad

YESTERDAY: We had a Tifa/Zelda tie going into the last page and for a few straight votes nobody voted for either. The last vote broke the tie in favor of Tifa.

Shoutouts to Squall for starting way behind then slowly coming back throughout the day. If we had kept going he might have actually overtaken Zelda who lost a lot of steam after some of the Contestheads (you know who you are) showed up to remind everyone that Zelda never did great in contests and only really did well in 2018.

Draven managed to get 5 votes by the end but I think the ultimate insult to him was that people refused to extensively debate his conclusion. Board 8 remains dismissive of Draven and his ilk, as they should.

We got some good new contest-related Rushmores nominated, please take time to check the Google Sheet and second some noms if you have the time. Thank you!

ChatGPT's Rushmore: I described a GameFAQs Character Battle to it and what we usually vote for, but it kept giving me just Nintendo characters even when I told it we also like JRPGs, and a lot of the times it would give Pikachu twice. I eventually got a "decent" list:

AI Rushmore by Bing AI: It took forever to get anything halfway decent, it was really struggling with Pikachu:
