You can't choke if you were never in the running to begin with. DK loves to build leads, then blow them all away. This is looking to be no different.

I don't think he'll blow it this time. He's starting earlier, he didn't have as big a lead to come back from, and he has a bigger vote pool to draw from. Add into that the fact that CT's night vote rocks DK's, and Chief should take this.

He took 106 votes off in that 10 minute span... pretty nice.
---
I'm so nominating Chief next year... his midday comebacks are just too awesome.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GILO YOU BEAUTY!

Ah, Master Chief with a certain amount of acceleration right now. I'll do some percentage analysing on the hour, need to watch my hattrick side nurse this slender lead home and swipe 6th place at the death.

Sure, the two are the single biggest choke artists in contest history. However, to determine who is THE Chokemeister, I'd have to give the nod to the Chief.

DK has MC outrapped easily. Now, the actual match still seems up in the air, though DK still should take it with a minimal margin.

And why'd you get warned anyway?

"Life...Dreams...Hope...Where'd they come from? And where are they headed...? These things...I'm going to destroy!!" -Kefka

You call that suffering? He was supposed to have a bullet encased somewhere between his eyes right about now. Even if he chokes and loses, this is still a moral victory. A pyrrhic victory, yes, but nothing left behind a hint DK had a chance, unless you really want to believe faceshot CATS = Eggplant CATS.

"You can't have gone over a kilometer up. 1500 meters, tops." -Samus Aran

It's took 35 minutes for MC to take 100 votes off the lead. I know that's slower than what he was doing to Frog, but I'm also fairly certain that Frog had a bigger lead at this point. I don't feel like checking because the updater has a data point for every 2 seconds, and I have a slow connection, but meh. DK's night vote isn't going to be as strong as Frog's, but his day vote shouldn't be as pathetic, either. It should be interesting.

*refreshes updater*

Yeah. I'm fairly certain that proves the point about DK > Frog when it comes to the day. Scratch that 35 min/100 votes thing, too. The night shall be interesting...

That was pretty funny... huge jump for DK followed by an even greater jump by MC to make it look like nothing happened. He's back on schedule.

i was a bit worried for a moment by DK's odd update win, but MC takes it all back and more to dip under 1600.

Because he felt like it. Honestly.
Fisher probably increased each year and Magus overperformed like no other against Link.

Which would somewhat make sense, since Fisher has a new game every year.
