I think the idea that was pitched was 1v1 Games Contest, no LoL at all and OoT to face the winner in a bonus match

edit: remember the Tharja/Tiny Tina/Juliet match? good times, almost like it was part of a completely different contest

It's been a while since they have done that, so the Games contest would be great. I would retire CB a minimum of two years.

I'm not in favor of banning Draven. Despite all the other stuff going on, Draven still technically is the CB champion. Unless they retire all previous champions for the next match. Which would be fun given the right bracket.

Oh, come on, why not?! Even if he is the champion, this is still worse than *ANYTHING* Link has done, and we have people clamoring that ne needs to be retired already! Admittedly, it's an unfair soultion, but I'd rather not have this happen again.

clearly DOTA 2 fans will rally Pudge to victory when LoL stuff is banned

I'm going to guess a new series of threads will arrive, the "how gullible is x" threads where day 1 is the LoL subreddit mods

I would not retire him. I would retire CB for at least two years. Upon return, I would have a CB with no prior champions but without a ToC. If LoL is still just as big upon the next character battle I would assess what to do next. I would change the rules accordingly, and if I don't feel that is adequate enough, I would ban Draven.

I can understand if SBAllen bans Draven. It's not what I would do. but I would get it.

I guess you could say that

Mario is Missing! *shot*

[Shadow Mir]

I would not retire him. I would retire CB for at least two years. Upon return, I would have a CB with no prior champions but without a ToC. If LoL is still just as big upon the next character battle I would assess what to do next. I would change the rules accordingly, and if I don't feel that is adequate enough, I would ban Draven.

I can understand if SBAllen bans Draven. It's not what I would do. but I would get it.

After seeing what he did in round 2, there's just no two ways about it - there's a risk that he (or any other LoL character besides Teemo, for that matter) can catch fire and repeat the feat.

TNA

Top Ten SBAllen Posts by lightning-02

all credit goes to him.

Original gamefaqs thread: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/67265388

"~*~10~*~ Advertising the contest to Reddit

http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/1g816h/the_great_gamefaqs_character_battle_ix/

Because how could encouraging involvement from notorious site raiders possibly be a bad idea?

~*~9~*~ Implementing single page voting

Reddit threads can't link to the same url multiple times (i.e. gamefaqs.com) so to maximise rally output from Reddit he needed to implement a system where voters could vote on a page generated with a new ID each time.

~*~8~*~ Charles Barkley

The revelation that in 2011 he dismissed allowing Charles Barkley into character battles on the grounds that he'd become a rallying focal point for /b/ and achieve success to the annoyance of his valued GameFAQs userbase. He then pointed to Gamespot contests as an example of how external sites dictating the winner can destroy a contest.

hmmm

~*~7~*~ Emotional distress

On two separate occasions he chose to avoid the relevant questions being asked and instead voice his upset at the dissent being expressed. Firstly in the stats topic he tugged at everyones heart strings at how his Labor Day plans were interrupted by the load balancing servers dropping at an unfortunate time. Secondly he responded to Mooglekupo's stinging assault on his physical appearance.

At least he wasn't angry with us, just disappointed.

~*~6~*~ "Draven won't win"

His reassurance after Draven just toppled the most popular character on the site.

~*~5~*~ Deleting his Bonus Poll

In a final desperate attempt to extend the olive branch to board 8 he offered us our selection of a final day bonus poll. The thread lasted less than an hour as Reddit began pouring in votes for "Link vs Draven" to the extent where Allen hastily deleted the poll.

Strange behaviour for a man who courted Reddit, defended them and approves rallying as a legitimate tactic.

~*~4~*~ "An r/lol mod ruined the final"

After going out of his way to invite Reddit to participate in his contest, personally contacting the r/lol moderators to reinstate a deleted rally thread and asking them to cover up a lie for them that he had told his own site he then went and slandered them on the final day for doing exactly what he wanted.

~*~3~*~ "Rally your own personal army"

His suggestion to people who didn't like the outcome of a poll. Many took it.

~*~2~*~ The Mewtwo fiasco

The events are best described as cartoonish. It started with Allen making a reasonable and sensible decision in requesting the r/lol mods removed the rally threads on Reddit to stop influencing the contest. As those mods said it would have been nice if he said something sooner and it did seem to confirm he was on a vendetta against Link but hey at least he was trying to do something positive. They complied.

2 hours later he returned performing a complete 180 and wanting the rally thread back.

He proceeded to lie on the board about this event eluding to the first person being an imposter and when Reddit mods debunked this he fabricated the story that it was his wife all along. (who coincidentally wanted board 8's favourite character to win and also starts her posts with Allen's "howdy all")

~*~1~*~ Not extending the Link match

A bad time to sway from precedent." - lightning-02

I agree with this top 10.

Edited September 17, 2013 by Viewtiful_J

[GHEB]

SBAllen deserves to rot in hell for not extending the Link match.

[amadeuscho]

SBAllen deserves to rot in hell for not extending the Link match.

Or you know, should probably not run another gamefaqs character battle. He is clearly incapable.

[Shadow Mir]

Personally, I consider the idiotic SFF situations, as well as the poorly constructed bracket, the greater sin.
