It's just like Ganon vs. Auron, nothing much happening.

Considering how eradic the poll has been I guess one side could have some really huge cheating, but I wouldn't count on it. This match is likely too one sided for any cheating to affect the outcome, and cjayc only tends to mention cheat vote when they turn the tide of the match.

Well, he mentioned StarCraft's excessive cheating in the SSBM match (though I'd wager it's because it was blatantly obvious and he had to say SOMETHING), and he didn't remove votes.

This doesn't seem to be like Auron/Ganon. Seems like removing votes could be in order.

Watch as in the next update dante is replaced by alucard who has 95% of the votes.

oh man. there's a whole section on FF7 and it's spinoffs in this EGM. Vincent looks ******* awesome in Dirge of Cerberus. after that game comes out, i can definitely see him at or near elite levels.

oh, and Before Crisis also looks like it will be very cool. ya gotta love the Turks. and Crisis Core for PSP is supposed to be about Zack's story, apparently. imagine the possibilites for 2K5. we could see: Cloud, Sephiroth, Tifa, Vincent, Aeris, Barret, Yuffie, Reno, Rude, AND Zack.

despite no company caps, more than four characters from one game seems a little much to me. that's probably why Aeris didn't make it.

if these FF7 games actually do come out, it's possible we'll get five or six. I can't imagine eight, though.

I think I remember harrich saying when gannon vs. auron wasn't working that if enough people go go to an extension like gamefaqs.com/poll_not_working or something cjayc well get messages about the link not working. Is that true? If so we should give it a try.

Yes, because FFVII has been impressing so much. Especially today.

Because the main argument for the Cloud > Link upset is gone.

He never needed Advent Children in order to win in the first place. Even when I argued how much it would help him, I always stated he wouldn't need it to overcome Link's 4533 vote win in 2004 -- take note of the amount he won by, it's nothing that is insurmountable.

If it fades a little more this year, all hope is lost.

Vincent got 54.66% of the votes there, and yet he only went up .02%. I guess it's because there aren't as many votes coming in.

Whew. I'm glad the poll didn't lose any votes because of that.

Yes, because FFVII has been impressing so much. Especially today.

Vincent underperformed expectations of people who were putting him at a level that would give him a chance against Crono. I'm positive that Dante has increased from his 2004 value. Vincent shouldn't be that far off from my original projection before the contest.

But the "impressing" you speak of will happen when Tifa beats Sonic... and Mega Man. Oh, sorry, I might be "overestimating" FFVII again. =p

Tifa will be brought back down to earth when she fails to break 60% on Luigi.

Right now I think that it's likely that FFVII is much like streetfighter, in the sense that it has a lot of characters who are at about the same level of strength outside the biggest powerhouse (or biggest two powerhouses in this case). Tifa, Aeris, and vincent are probably very close to each other in strength.
