Board 8 > We need a better gimmick for these GFAQs contests, otherwise they'll die out

(+) Yeah! (+)

Sidekick Character Battle?

Worst Game Ever?

Best (insert genre) Game Ever?

Open up 3rd party characters for the regular Character Battles?

Just some ideas. We need to decide on a type of contest that we think would actually be successful. This Rivalry gimmick is pretty cool, but it doesn't really attract people to vote.

Again couldn't we just take out all the major players in the tournament (noble 9 etc) and go with that with that with Link being the bonus / super match or whatever (shrug) (could be done a couple ways)

We can't just remove the Noble Nine specifically, not all of them have actually won something.

I'm a bit surprised there hasn't been a "Best Console Ever" contest yet, sure, as with the Best Series Ever contest there would be a limited number of matches (many of them very predictable), but it would still generate a lot of excitement and the final outcome wouldn't be so predictable, even if the SNES and the PS2 would probably be the clear favorites.

I guess I mean we could put them all in a seperate bracket or something (have a sort of champions part like that one year with Link and Cloud being taken out and being made into super matches or whatever <shrug> (again could be done a couple ways)

There aren't enough consoles to make a contest with 64 entrants without having a ton of fodder.
