Just got this PM from Jody regarding the "unofficial" brackets

Oddly enough, staff sent me this list a while back and the bug report never told me the status update. Anyways, I am going to be granting the remainder users with the brackets emblems today. Feel free to pass the word. I'll also have it mentioned in tomorrow's weekly report.

The original spam filter blog about the 2nd emblem has been updated

UPDATE: I have some great news. The awesome GameSpot Developer Staff provided a list of everyone else who did create a bracket and never saved, or saved their brackets without choosing a winner. This emblem is being handed out to those who participatied in GameSpot's first 'All-Time Greatest' bracket.

Note that this list is quite hefty so you should please be patient, but you should expect to see it on your profiles some time today. Also, once this is handed out, the ONLY way someone will get the emblem is if their bracket was filled in and some how I might have not added your name properly to the emblem tool. Therefore, only use the emblem reporting thread in the technical support forum if you have not received the emblem by tomorrow morning.

This emblem shows that youve submitted a bracket for GameSpots Greatest Game Hero competition. Lets get in there and fight!

This emblem shows that you got into GameSpots Greatest Game Hero competition on the ground floor by voting for the 10 additional characters added to the main list. Rock the vote!

Thanks for the info, telegram going out soon. This looks like it could be lots of fun, and a new emblem(s) is always fun.

Don't be afraid to discuss the event right here in this very thread, we always welcome friendly discussion about video games .

Thanks for the heads up.

I've never had to deal with a list like this, so it took me a minute to figure out who to vote for. I wonder who will get the most votes?

My vote goes to The Nameless One. I'll assume Nathan, Yoshi, Jak, Kirby, and Banjo won't need much help making the top 10. I like Wander but SotC seems like it is popular enough to make 10th. JC, Maverick, and The Nameless One are the ones that need help.

Is it me, or after casting a vote, the numbers and % of all votes, for all candidates aren't displayed? (like in the best&worst 200?

Oh and I voted for Drake.

Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.

Yea, this is something great that Gamespot is doing. It kinda reminds me of the thing that Gamfaqs does every year when they do the Greatest Game of All Time. Should be really fun once it starts. Voted, for Yoshi, and hopefully will get a new awesome looking emblem in my profile!

I voted for Kirby

"the winning voters who correctly pick the winning brackets and the greatest heroes will win all the glory in the form of bragging rights and fabulous prizes, while the losers suffer the agony of defeat. (And maybe an embarrassing forum emblem. We're just saying.)"

So a emblem for voting and a emblem for getting the correct overall winners/being completely wrong.

I happened to see this on the Community Blog, but a nice write-up of the event!

Personally, I had a hard time choosing between J.C. Denton and Stranger. But, I went with Stranger. I don't think he'll make it in though...

Not quite sure who I voted for, but someone got my vote. Looks like I accidentally clicked on one of the buttons by mistake. Hopefully these emblems aren't character-specific.

(Cool, Muthsera. You've got a Backloggery account, too. Just created mine yesterday.)

Don't wanna com up with another great signature, so I won't write anything clever. Now you have used several seconds of your life, reading this useless and meaningless signature - you can as well use some minutes at my website twinkling.dk

I voted for Jak and Daxter. They have a history of a lot of good games and they were amoung the best on the PS2. I wanted to vote for Drake but with only 1 game i thought it would be unfair.

I am Canadian

Check out my reviews.
