I think the prevalence of positively-received rallies in GotD 2 compared to CBX is a sign that people generally find game contests more exciting than character contests.The only person "positive" about rallies is Board 8's resident manchild, and the people who are hypocritically only supporting the rallies when it goes in their bracket's favour --- "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and hellboy" - trancer1 lol xstats |

I feel like equating getting people you know to throw in a dozen votes to posting something online where it can get massive exposure seems wrong.One is cheating and ruining the results of the match.
