Mario is better with the day vote than Zero too.

Mario should rise, considering Zero probably took most of the board vote.

I would almost be willing to take Mario and Samus over Sephiroth at this point...but that'd just make for a boring SFF filled finale. Link v Sephiroth, for the measuring stick between Cloud and Sephiroth finally is what we need. Only interesting final.

Ouch. I hope Zero goes up during the night, because this'll get even uglier once day comes.

Everybody with a score of 8 or less got the match wrong.

Not a particularly great performace. The lone -2 continues to get the matches right. We lost a few -3s and -4s. The top tiers did do better than the people near the middle, but it's still not a great performace.

11 people fell off the Top 50 today. OK_Undertow, OSUdemonhunter, futurecloud, Sonic_Overdrive, Omnipotent_user, Loony_Bin, AngerFork, FingolfinTheElf, SSuper__Nuke, GenmaNinja454 and PrinceMarthX did not have Yoshi winning the match today.

ShadowAngemon and harderbr luck out and manage to stay on the Top 50 after getting the match wrong. Round 3 is worth 4 points and will be far less forgiving. There shouldn't be too many more people being able to stay on the Top 50 after getting a match wrong.

Mario should rise, considering Zero probably took most of the board vote.

If we should see anything this contest, it's that this board votes with their brackets. Mario will probably decrease a bit here, but bite back hard come the morning hours.

Or he'll dominate wire to wire, and everything non-Nintendo will just look like **** for the rest of the contest.

I wouldn't be scared anyway, we've seen how Ganondorf's "fanbase" abandoned him against Link, it could happen to a lesser degree against Samus too.

Or whatever. I doubt there will be much SFF between Ganondorf and Samus, just like there wasn't much between Samus and Link. I still expect Samus to beat Mario.

Mario seems to be stablizing.

I'm going out on a limb here, but since this topic thinks Link SFF Mega Man wouldn't Mario SFF Zero?

I don't think so, but what does everyone else think?

Meh. Most of the people here seem to be rooting for Mario to win, but when Samus destroys Ganondorf tomorrow, she won't get as much respect and praise.

My pick still stands. Samus to win it all, and then to beat Sephiroth. At this point, I'm ready to call Mario a bigger threat to Samus than Sephiroth.

Regardless of what either Nintendo rep does in this round, I still say Mario/Samus is all about the SFF shift. We have Mr. Nintendo vs. Mrs. Nintendo with the god of Nintendo SFF nowhere in sight. I can't really refute the claims of "there won't be much SFF" because we've never seen this match before, but I'm still expecting it to easily decide the match.
