why does it say "Developer: Interplay" gamespy = dumb

most gamespy fans are useless tools, which explains why diablo 2 is winning.

Someone said that NMA cheated on the first fight... how?

ExtremeDrinker · Post by **ExtremeDrinker** » Wed Mar 17, 2004 3:12 am

Probably voted a shit-ton of times.

You can only vote once though.

I just voted 50 times. Seemed to count each vote in the talley.

My votes seemed to stop counting after about 20 or so. Though this contest is somewhat trivial, it would kind of be cool to show up Diablo 2. Now is the time to unite, so that once and for all, fallout fans can say to Diablo fanboys these three simple yet elegant words: "you got served"

Trust me guys. You can only vote once, and the reason you guys think you can vote more is because OTHER people cast votes in between the time you submit yours and the time the page refreshes.

Well that sure as hell seemed to be lost on these guys!

Karmic Macro's

T'was a suggestion at NMA that Diabolo2 aficionados can generate viral macros and stuff the ballot.

My belief system can not support such an unnatural phenomenon.

The number of sales and the proximity of those consumers to Gamespy might have more to do with why Halo and Diabolo2 can generate 16,000 combined votes in their respective contests, when most, outside of the one with Unreal T, combine to 10,000 or less.

Insert your favorite conspiracy theory HERE.

And, ...

If karma lives in a post FO:BOS universe than I nominate the diabolical macro where in each additional vote for FO2 after the your first AND ONLY one might score 2 or more for Diabolo2.

For a game that was released in 1998 that wasn't terribly popular it's doing pretty fucking good against one of the most popular PC games of all time.

meh, we stood up well against baldur's gate. I think this would be helpful for future reference when something else terrificable happens.

Ending votes:

Fallout 2 - 5836
Diablo 2 - 10249

... not that bad??

And IIRC FO2 won BG2 with, like, 50 votes?

Cowabunga.

Diablo 2 was good. But every true gamer knows...Fallout 2 was better.

So fuck GSI.

LlamaGod · Post by **LlamaGod** » Thu Mar 18, 2004 8:22 am

They are about equal, but FO1 pwns them both.

Kashluk · Post by **Kashluk** » Thu Mar 18, 2004 6:29 pm

*shock*

*horror*

Drama!

It was interesting to see what some people on the diabloii.net forums said about fo2.
