Wow, Kirby came with it! If that keeps up, could this be the first case of rSFF with fans of Kirby sympathizing with him at the hands of Bowser? <_<

Everybody with a score of 11 or lower got the match wrong.

The -2, -3 and -4s all went perfect this time. The -5s were one person short of doing the same thing. We've high 90s for prediction percentages starting from the -5s and slowly fades as you go down the list.

Three people fell off the Top 50 today. ShadowAngemon, WuTugu and shanezey didn't have Solid Snake winning the match today.

Well, I can say I called Kirby "reverse SFFing" Bowser, should it happen. Even though I was being more optimistic than anything.

I think Kirby will take the day vote... let's see if he can hang in there right now.

Bowser increases by nearly a percent there. I expect him to get increasing throughout tonight and then keep it up throughout the day.

Of course. This board has a serious Kirby obsession for some strange reason. Bowser should keep increasing his percentage like this.

Probably because he's awesome.

And Bowser's percentage on that update was only 54%. He won't keep building massively with updates like that.

Oh, believe me, there's nothing great about Kirby at all. As lame as the joke may be, Kirby's little trademark of sucking describes him quite well.

The only way in which Kirby sucks is literally.

And it takes a real man to admit he sucks. And it takes an awesome character to be good despite sucking. Yet Kirby maintains it.

On the contrary, I would applaud GameFAQs for a rare instance of getting it right, and with it happening two days in a row in spectacular fashion, we'd be on an unmatched streak.
