Thirteen more off for Crono.

Not enough for Mario's worst time. This is going to get ugly in a second.

Hey at least Crono made it to the finals.Not bad for a character has appeared in only one game,which is more that 10 years old right?And Mario is a gaming icon.If this ends less than 55% for Mario,I will be happy for Crono.

Cheer up Emo kids.

This is certainly impressive for Crono, as every run of his has been since 2002...just a *little* underwhelming considering how much trouble he's caused for the plumber in the past.

And ye gods, I take back what I said--Crono's getting hammered right now. He's losing updates that Snake was outright winning at this point.

The real story of this match is not Mario/Crono 4 at all. Instead its the battle for Gordon Freeman--can he stay in the Top 32? As of the last update I saw, he's at 33rd place, right behind Ryu Hayabusa. Check out how close he is though:

Ryu H: 27.4836% on Mario
Gordon: 27.48124%

Close. Hurray Gordon!

He's picking up the pace now ^_^

Wheeee!

So I wake up to Mario just over 52%. GG Crono, as you are going to get your ass kicked over the next 12 hours.

With 52% cracked at this point, I may have to retract my comment about Mario breaking 54%. Though I still doubt he'll maintain a percentage over that by the match's end.

GOODNESS GRACIOUS on that last update.

Okay, forget 54%, let's talk 55+%.

I really hope this means Link can still beat Cloud. It would really make my day to see HMs reaction if Link got 54%.

'Can still' beat Cloud? Link has always been the favorite (especially with The Boost in the wings), it's up to Cloud to prove that he can AC leak his way to victory.

Mario is not ****ing slowing down here. O_O

And Mario *seemingly* slows the crap down...but he actually stayed constant, that was a Crono spike. Not to mention he STILL won the update.

Jeez...he's making the contest look like it wasn't even challenging for him.
---

Apparently the Mario stuffers are better at cheating than the Crono ones. >_>

So assuming I get the ToC right, do I still have a chance of makin the top 10? >_>

"Masa, everytime I talk to you, my urge for hot pockets rises. Damn you" - Linky.

Eh, he truly has slowed down a bit now...looks like Crono was just a little late picking up his vote total.

Or the Crono cheaters dropped the ball a few updates back and the Mario cheaters ran with it. <_<
---

Mario > Crono...this is great to see, and will most likely only get better for Mario.

Eh, this isn't bad enough to make Cloud > Link an impossibility...now, if Crono seriously gets CronOWNED as the day goes by, that might be cause to panic.

Well, least Cron boy made it to the finals this year. And Its only fair that Crono can only lose to the #1 and #2 mascots from Nintendo. So in the end. GG!

Mario was just on fire all this year...

Any guesses on his ending percentage?

Cloud > Link will never be an impossibility...but, it's not likely. FF:AC better have done something good and Link better not have gotten part of the assumed Nintendo boost, or else he has no chance. I'd rather see Link beat Cloud's ass though, even if I do like Cloud.

*had Cloud over Link*

I just hate how anti-climactic the last match is going to be... Cloud/Link can go either way, and I think the same about Mario/Seph.

---

It's better to have two unpredictable matches followed by a dull one than have two dull matches followed by the inevitable Cloud/Link affair. Plus, it's actually somewhat challenging to have the ToC this way...
---

Well I'm going to prey for Cloud to beat Link, as a top 10 finish would be great, but I highly doubt he'll win. If he does loose, this will be the second year in a row where Cloud loosing has lost me a top 10 spot :(

Bold prediction: Mario with 55%. I told you that was bold.

I'm winner!

Okay, now that I'm done gloating. Aside from Mario/Samus and Nintendo vs. Megaman, why is it that matches between two elites always give us exactly the stats we expect them to?

I refuse to call him HM anymore. I remember just a couple of months ago when he had "Mario's path to victory" in his sig...

Go Mario! I'm so glad you're winning. The sig was never in question. It would have been awful to see Mario lose here. I don't hate Crono, but I am loving this match. Ending at 53.24% would be awesome irony.

Vote for Mario, this year's contest champion!
Mario > Crono. Bank on it.

Go Mario!

Told you Crono had no chance. He only broke 49% once at the 1:20 update.

I wouldn't expect much from the next few hours... Crono seems to have him stalled percentage-wise. But once Mario gets his hands on some afterschool vote... he can realistically go for that 55%.

At least HM was actually right about a winner, except, he went the opposite direction. So, HM isn't wrong about everything ..

MARIOWNED

I did surprisingly well in this contest, for one that had so many unpredictable matches in the beginning. I should end the main bracket with a score of 175--a score of 199 if the ToC goes perfectly for me.

Certainly enough to put above 'wrong about everything,' I'd say. =p

Vincent ain't outranking Snake...and that's all well and good. But the question that everyone (me) wants to know, is what will it take for Snake to get to Mega Man/Sonic's level?! <_<
