I'm somewhat caught up. I have no interest in reading any of the stuff about DK/Master Chief, especially since the comeback is ongoing. HOPEFULLY, my electricity will be back on when I go back home. If not, I think I might go and crash the Red Carpet at the VMAs. :)

God, MC's taking forever to put DK away.

He may not even pull into the lead before the night vote rolls around. But who will it go to?

I attempted to do a few calculations using Aprosenf's standings, and it seems they aren't proportioned the way I'm used to. Anybody know how to calculate them like regular extrapolated standings?

Err, yeah, the formula I'm using is slightly different than the standard formula. If the rankings of two characters are A and B (where 0 <= A, B <= 1), then the expected fraction of the votes going to the first character is A*(1-B)/(A*(1-B) + B*(1-A)). For the most part, it gives similar results to A/(2*B), but it's not exactly the same. I don't really feel like explaining why I use that formula right now.

Master Chief is never going to get the lead at this rate.

Dk is wasting air by pretending to not die.

The topic is going slow since we're only seeing 5 min. updates. We would already have like 4-5 topics filled up if we were still doing live updates

This topic would be going a lot quicker if we didn't have to sit through these stupid 5 minute updates. Remember how fun Kefka vs. Vercetti was when it was on a live update basis?

MC should take the lead in about 30 min. if this keeps up.
