Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 243
From: Tatsumaki Senpuu | Posted: 9/10/2005 12:02:36 PM | Message Detail
Looks like Vincent has stretched his lead out to about 400 now. It still isn't over, but he's at least made a little cushion from where I saw it this morning.

Vercetti/Kefka is tainted. While it was certainly fun to watch at the time, it left me with a bad taste in my mouth.

Were still under that, but by barley.

Other than that 272 spike and some of his lulls, Squall seems fine to me. Vincent's been following the same pattern (albeit with more spikes and less lulls).

If anything, Vincent's voting patterns are more fishy. His match with Dante had extremely erratic voting patterns.

2. Mario Mario Vs. Crono (2003)
3. Sonic the Hedgehog Vs. Samus Aran (2002)
4. Mario Mario Vs. Cloud Strife (2002)
5. Frog Vs. Liquid Snake (2004)
6. Frog Vs. Master Chief (2004)
7. Starcraft Vs. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (Sp2004)
8. Kefka Palazzo Vs. Tommy Vercetti (2005)
9. Halo Vs. Starcraft (Sp2004)
10. Donkey Kong Vs. Aya Brea (2002)
11. Squall Leonhart Vs. Luigi Mario (2003)
12. Starcraft Vs. Super Smash Brothers Melee (Sp2004)
13. Chrono Trigger Vs. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (Sp2004)
14. Mario Mario Vs. Crono (2002)
15. Donkey Kong Vs. Tommy Vercetti (2003)
16. Ryu Hyubasa Vs. Jill Valentine (2004)
17. Magus Zeal Vs. Knuckles the Echidna (2005)

20. Final Fantasy Tactics Vs. Metal Gear Solid (Sp2004)
21. Solid Snake Vs. Tanner (2004)

Hey, he just needs to keep increasing his lead and keep winning those updates. He's in a position now where he doesn't need to worry about building a lead for later. This match doesn't look like it'll have a significant shift in voting.
