I just wish the Touhou fandom also could mobilize and make one of its underdogs win a popularity contest...or one of the overdogs. Doesn't matter.

Boring shit like that conclusion is why I hardly if ever care about Game FA Qs Character Battles anymore.

This contest actually just had the best ending ever when it was revealed that the person who impersonated the admin, Allen, to try to get Reddit to stop the rallies was none other than ALLEN'S OWN WIFE.

Should note that it's entirely possible he was just joking.

Either his opening post had its sarcasm completely concealed or it was in fact DA TRUF!

If he was joking, then that means Allen flat-out lied to both the Board 8 community and the Reddit community regarding his actions during the semi-finals. We already have proof that whoever contacted the Reddit mods to get them to stop the rallies was using Allen's official Reddit account, the one he normally uses for AMA threads.

So either Allen was trying to sabotage both sides of a contest that was worth actual money in prizes and bring on the wrath of everyone involved, or his wife really did hack his account.

Interesting if true, irrelevant to me nonetheless. WOOO DRAVENFAQS!

Wait, Draven was disqualified? (From winning the final round. I know he was disqualified from the Link rematch.)

This is like, top of the line Serious Business right here... Draven still won in my eyes, though.

I decide to start looking at this again and OH SWEET JESUS THE GLORIOUS SALT.

I can kinda understand all the Draven drama (seems less like rallying and more like douchebaggery), but whatever. It's someone different at the very least. Props to him for winning almost winning winning.

[up][up] Yes, he was.

The Bonus Match was created as a real final match without Draven's presence to ruin it. He lost, you can call Canon Discontinuity or believe what you want, but Draven was kicked out and Link won. Whether its predictable or not, that's reality.

A denial comeback would only work on me if I actually wanted Link to win.

A "Bonus" match is exactly that, "Bonus".

Or else they'd call it "The Real Actual Match Because We're Butthurt And Screw You Guys Link Totally Should've Won".

Despite the "Bonus" label, Allen pretty much called it the real final round.

Where did he do that again?

If he really did, I'm submitting "The Real Actual Match Because We're Butthurt And Screw You Guys Link Totally Should've Won" as a new name for the "Bonus" round.

I'm with Question Marc, the bonus match was a throwing the upset Gamefaqs users a bone. Pretending it's the "true final" is desperate.

Just ignore Mage of Fire. He and a bunch of other GFAQ users think it's funny to pretend Draven was disqualified and Link won again for the 7th time to annoy people who don't have their heads buried in sand like an ostrich. The best thing you can do to these people is to ignore their existence just like they're so good at ignoring reality.

The official wiki has already been updated with Draven as the winner, so everything's pretty much done.

Doesn't matter, Draven is the official winner. End of story.

Nothing wrong with it either. I am slightly surprised he didn't get disqualified, but the fact is, he didn't despite all that. Which means he won fair and square.

If anything, it looks more like he got less votes than normal. So he would've won either way related to the other events. Bonus matches are just that, bonuses. They are not the true final match, just a fun extra for people.

Rallying when it's encouraged to do so lacks the ability to be douchebaggery as well, fyi.

...It's weird having so many websites and no way to properly display now, lol.

Ehh screw Draven. A whole lot of stupid drama due to him, and really I can understand why FA Qs is salty.
