There was this Chrono Trigger Facebook group that was supposed to rally for Chrono Trigger. When the rally call went out it didn't even show up as a blip in the poll updater. For comparison, the undertale_bot Twitter account has an immediate and massive effect on results whenever it retweeted a poll.

The undertale_bot Twitter account having a massive effect on the results was a bit surprising since the account had under 10000 followers when it tweeted the polls during the 2015 contest. There were competitive Smash players with more than 100000 followers that tweeted during the CT/Melee match that produced a spike in the poll updater that lasted for maybe 30 minutes at the most before fizzling out, but undertale_bot with less than 10000 followers created a spike for Undertale that lasted for several hours. The tweets from undertale_bot didn't have a huge number of retweets from other people who saw them (and those who retweeted mostly had less than 100 followers).

It's hard to accurately gauge, of course, but Undertale was near its peak of popularity, wasn't it? And Undertale is one those games where its fans were exceedingly likely to want to promote it to other people for its charm and memes rather than Melee, whose fanbase probably didn't feel a need to promote/share/support it actively.
