It might just be that the areas you can have random encounters at changes as you progress, if you were able to get encounters there on your later genocide attempt. Sounds like an interesting thing to test out, really...

I had the "That Comedian" message from just before entering Snowdin, and it remained after entering the town. If my memory serves, my remaining encounters before that point had been 1, and I had fought Greater Dog at that point to see if that fight would count, only to trigger the message (probably linked to what Sans says past the bridge).

After killing one more enemy, the message at save points changed to "Determination", perhaps suggesting that the comedian message was because Sans did 'something' to make you lose track in an attempt to take you off the route.

For the record, the only places I was able found encounters at (having reached Greater Dog's room) were Gyftrot's room and the room south of the Snowman, though I also didn't check further back.
