Rally bad when I don't like it, rally good when I like it I have no stake in this match but B8 needs to own its hypocrisy sometimes. Everyone is okay with something if it ends up with their favored entrant winning I am very rarely on the winning side of a rally and I've played neither of these games I'd rather there have been no rallying at all but you can't unring the bell as they say so I might as well get points out of it --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/080/145/638.png https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq <cite>LeonhartFour posted [p:937405048] in Contest St...

People are basically just explaining what they thought think would've happened and no degree of certainty in that says anything about what people think of the rallies.

Can't wait for all the people who complained about rallies to be okay with this You could win me over on companies getting more involved in rallying for matches if most of them did. I feel like newer companies are more likely to take the lead on a movement like this than Nintendo and Square.

I'm not Twitter expert but it is my social media of choice, and follower count doesn't really matter if people aren't actively engaging your tweet with likes/replies.

Would people be okay with it then? I think even Leon himself thought David Hayter tweeting to rally for Solid Snake was hilarious, and frankly if anyone thought that was a problem I will fight them. The David Hayter tweet was seriously the best part of the contest, especially since it worked so well that the LoL people got so freaked out they might lose that they lied to get the rally pinned to the top of the page. but yeah if people actually involved with the game want to tweet or whatever, I think that's less objectionable than one of us doing it because we want bracket points --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/080/145/638.png https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq <cite>LeonhartFour posted [p:937405371] in Contest St...

davidponte 04/14/20 7:18:19 PM #497:	I think this match would have been better if we had continued with the died off rallies that we had over the last little while.
