eh.. I think Vincent will break 40% on Crono tomorrow.

I always find it hilarious how overestimated Kefka is by casuals.
From: yoblazer33 | Posted: 9/14/2005 4:58:30 PM | Message Detail
They (casuals) probably assumed Kefka was a beast for ousting Pac-Man. The Spring Contest didn't help wisen them up, either. He shouldn't fool nearly as many of them next year, though.

I agree with Charmander's prediction completely.
From: swirldude | Posted: 9/14/2005 4:59:16 PM | Message Detail
These casuals obviously believe in the power of lettuce.

On a side note, I have no doubt lettuce would win a favorite vegetable tournament here, just because all the casuals who think a head of lettuce was Kefka.

In the past hour, Bowser got an average of 4 2/3 votes more than Solid per update. At this rate, Solid wins with 703 votes.

FYI, Bowser needs just over 13 votes per update (13.04) to win.

Sora is either really weak or he got SFF'd.

Reporter: We recently managed to get an interview with Crono, member of the Elite 8 of the GameFAQs character battle. Crono, do you have anything to say to all your fans out there?
Crono: ...
Reporter: Excellent! Now, you have lost to Mario twice in these contests, yet last year you managed to beat him and break the curse. Do you think you can beat him again?
Crono: ...
Reporter: I see. Now, many think that you have dropped in strength since the previous years, and some say that you will fall to the winner of Sonic/Mega Man. How do you feel?
Crono: ...
Reporter: One last question: do you think Vincent has any chance at all of beating you tomorrow?
Crono: ...
Reporter: All right, thanks for the interview, Crono! *leaves*
Crono: (thinking) What was the name of the bad guy from Tron? Argh, this is driving me nuts...

Snake by the hour (again):
17:00 | 49.51%
16:00 | 46.80%
15:00 | 48.79%
14:00 | 47.91%
13:00 | 49.26%
12:00 | 50.43%
11:00 | 52.10%
10:00 | 52.40%
09:00 | 52.38%
08:00 | 50.63%
07:00 | 52.48%
06:00 | 51.29%
05:00 | 50.64%
04:00 | 50.39%
03:00 | 57.92%
02:00 | 55.93%
01:00 | 54.90%

Bowser still took the hour, but he slowed down way too much to win. He now needs 39.11 votes/15 min update to win, but averaged only 14 votes/update in the last hour.

Here's to hoping it's an aberration...

In other news, Bowser now has the number 1337 and the number 42 on his side. I wouldn't have thought it possible to lose with both of those backing him, but apparently I'm going to be proven wrong.

Charmander, I certainly hope you are right as I have Crono winning it all.

But I think Link would break 70% on MC.

I hate to mess with 42, so I'm not calling it until Snake completely stabilizes.

Link won't have much trouble breaking 70% on MC. Hell, he even takes the green vote from old Chief.

Speaking of speaking too soon, Bowser exceeded his quota for that 15 minutes, getting 58 votes against the required 39 or so. Not over yet?

I cant see Mario breaking 53% on Snake..

I still believe Megaman is stronger than Mario. In fact, I think Mega might take the main bracket.

Besides, a Snake/Mega final would just be sexy..

the problem with the quota is that less votes are going to come in during the later hours. Bowser needs to go faster than this.

And why do you think Mega Man is that stronger than Mario? Did you see what he did to Zero? Did you see what Mega Man did to Zero?
