If Crono doesn't impress against MC and Vincent/Squall I think he could lose to Sonic.

I'll wait to see what Sonic does against Tifa rather than what Crono does to Master Chief.

Crono is gonna rape Master Chief worse than he should. Again, I have a feeling Master Chief will collapse against the strongest opponent he's ever faced.

No, Master Chief has failed enough times in this contest. He deserves at least one good match.

And I'm beginning to wonder if Ganondorf isn't the overrated one from the Spring. He does 3% worse against two common Sonic opponents. Maybe it's coincidence, but it's worth considering.

The DK match was good for him, I think. If you don't count that, he had the crushing of Crash.

I would like to stay up for this match, but the only match I'm going to stay up for is Mario/Samus and maybe the final.

Samus got 70% on Frog. If MC/Frog is accurate, Crono, should get about 68% on the Chief.

I think Master Chief is stronger than Frog now.

That being said, in order to show us that he's still in contention for the championship, he has to get at least 68% on Master Chief. Everyone in the noble nine thus far (except for Mega Man) has overperformed at some time or another. Crono has to show us he can too.

Wait... huh? You've been bringing this up for a while now. Since when was Ganon supposed to be on Sonic's level? I thought it was apparent that Sephiroth may have been overrated in 2k3. I'm fairly certain that Mario and Samus would at least break 45% on Sephiroth now.

Well, being overrated by that amount would put him below Bowser. That's partially why I thought it was significant.

I feel the same way too. He can beat Mario but Samus...for some reason I can see her giving him a fight if she makes it.

Same here; I expect MC to get no more than 31%, sad as it may be. At least he'll do some major percentage-cutting against Crono during the day.

Oh, heh, I got to thinkin' 'bout this...when Sephiroth gets to face the winner of the main bracket, I wonder how ridiculous of a prediction percentage Sephiroth will have in his favor in that match (heck, against Link/Cloud too).

there is pretty much no way that Vercetti is still even with DK. whether it's because of GTA:VC dropping in popularity or because of the site's Ninetendo boost or a combination of the two, i seriously doubt they are even anymore. because of that, i am certain that MC will do better against Crono than Vercetti did; probably in the neighborhood of 66%.

Does it really matter? He's doing only .7% worse than SAMUS.

I expect Master Chief to have 30% coming out of the first night vote. Then he should make up 20% during the day and truly earn his Master of the Day Vote title.

Uh... hey, I can dream, right?

When did I say this wasn't an incredible performance by Snake, overall?

He's not gaining anything great, like it was said he would at night.

Considering the vast majority of the votes have been cast, it's rather difficult to make large leaps and bounds. He's been outdoing his current percentage for over an hour now.

Are you serious? This is contest stats and discussion. I'm discussing the match at hand, whether my favorite character is in it or not. The fact is, Snake isn't doing great with the night vote, and that's that.

Silly Kirby trix are for kids and Snake isn't really that good with the second night vote. He let Frog take the last 3 hours while LS tried to make a comeback.

Feel free to bring it up. I didn't say "You guys said Snake would destroy with the night vote, but you were wrong!!! How stupid of you!!!" I wasn't bringing it up to brag. I was bringing it up as a point of interest.

heh, it's one person who can't stop talking about Sora vs. one person who can't stop talking about Snake... talking about Sora and Snake. whaddya know.

I'm really not sure about MC. has he ever been blown out? I could see him avoiding a doubling vs. Crono just because he's MC. I could see him underperforming on fodder but overperforming against strong characters because of that.

For a fun-fact, this will be the third time MC has not only lost, but lost to a Square character (all of which came from CT or FF7, no less, the two biggest RPGs here). This will be the first time MC faces a Square lead though.
