The only good thing for the stats and maths guys are that we can extract safe results for all matches because we had no rallies.

LOL no

The stats are just for fun this time anyway because it's not like we'll ever need them again.

This contest was better than the lack of a contest, but worse than every other contest we've ever had.

As a board we got worse trolls than BGE3, but not as bad as the ones from CB9.

Whatever happened to ol' Necky? I thought he was coming to the afterparty, but I haven't heard from him in a minute.

He's a very popular and busy man. He likely doesn't have time for the likes of us.

It doesn't feel much unlike off-season B8 so that's good.

Honestly I found it boring.

I'd rather another character or video game contest.

Nah, even the X-Stats won't be completely reliable since a couple of years had their strength messed up because of bad match picture. Most notably, this applies to 1995. Other years whose strength was altered from a bad match picture was 1997, 2000, and 2006.

I liked the concept and the match pics and being able to reminiscence about specific years of when I bought a bunch of games and what they mean to me and such

none of the matches themselves were super entertaining besides maybe the complaining of match pic order and usage

It was a be careful what you wish for as regards to killing rallys. You kill rallying and the awesome power of poll sample sizes means that the score after an hour and 1,500 votes is the exact same score as the final tally.

It wasn't anything special that's for sure.

Still didn't mind filling out another bracket though.

How many other folks got the final 2 correct but chose the wrong winner? (That's what I did. >_>)

I hope SBAllen learns from this contest.

Maybe next time the theme could be something cool like "Best Year in Video Gaming".

The parts of the contest that really mattered (the release of the consoles themselves) was never taken into account.

Also notice how both years in the finals have Zelda in them? ugh. I know where the voting went to ...

The years that should have won by default - 1988/89 (release of Megadrive and the BIG surge of gaming as we know it) 1994/95 (release of Playstation and the era of 3D gaming)

The years in the final were just ... whatever really (except for Metal Gear Solid which was important for bringing a whole new style of game to the table)

People didn't think, they just voted because Final Fantasy/Zelda =/

But the whole contest just felt flat anyway, I think due to too many subjects being in the years rather than a single subject (console/character/game etc)
