Nothing will ever match the magic of Frog/MC, unfortunately...if only because EVERYBODY was accusing MC of cheating simply because they had never seen anyone come back that fast before. Ah, those were the days...

I'd pay an arm and a leg to see that.

If there is one match where it can happen, it's this one.

Uh, Halo has no reason at all to start winning updates until the morning, if it was going to win updates during this hour, it was going to be right now, the later it gets into the night, the better it is for CV. This match honestly is looking like it's going to go pretty even. Hell, I'm a little scared about CV actually winning it. I'm not calling anything, but anything is really possible at this point in time. If CV keeps it up, it will have built itself a very nice lead by the time the Halo day vote kicks in. And as opposed to what I said before, I think the Halo day vote will have more of an effect than ever before, now that the 2nd night vote is all but gone.

Interesting, Master Chief actually increased his lead on DK by about 200 (out of 1568) during the second night vote (midnight to 3 AM) in there match.

This is actually the first point in time I've been concerned about my bracket - not because I'm worried Halo won't be able to pull it off, but because I question whether or not it will still be able to get past Kingdom Hearts.

Of course, not calling anything at this point, too early for judgments, etc. Still, doubt has surfaced !!

Considering our current pace for votes (300000+, and I'm not even kidding, though it'll certainly slow down), this kind of lead will be nothing for Halo.

Both this match and the winner vs. KH were hotly debated. I can see a double dose of barnburner coming from today's winner.

It's only 250 or so ahead of MG/SC.

So, we have a competitor that could conceivably win two very close barnburners...followed by going out in the third round to the Metal Gear powerhouse.

Assuming Halo makes it past Castlevania, I'm not worried at all about Kingdom Hearts. I even said in my analysis that I think Castlevania is the more dangerous of the two.

Am I right? Well, that's to be seen I suppose.

Personally, I'd prefer it if Castlevania won the four pack, even if it would ruin my bracket. It's a sure win for Metal Gear, bwahaha.

It looks like all the complaints about useless posts are...filling up more posts. And, what about what I'm doing...? Oh no, I'm also filling up a post! What am I going to do! Perhaps I should add something of value to it.

OH NO IT'S TOO LATE!

(I mean I'd wager this match getting the highest votals by at least 5000 votes)
Slowflake | Posted 7/7/2006 9:33:30 PM | message detail
I said a while back that I could see Halo beating KH, but not Castlevania.

I don't know if I should stand by it, though. We have no idea if this is close because both are stronger than we accounted for, or weaker.

From 12:15 to 12:30:

That was towards the end of the polls back then -- it's now the very beginning of polls, so CV's number SHOULD be much higher. Then again though, one would hope earlier poll times would help Halo out more than this too right now...but it's also too early to tell.

Hey, I don't mind talking about the match. What I don't like are when 5 different people post the same thing.

And the mention of barriers. I hate those.

Metal Gear wins with ease against any opponent in this division, but Castlevania making it there is best due to it being the second best series in the division!!

If Castlevania does beat Halo .. I am rather confident in Kingdom Hearts > Castlevania .. I see Halo as a bigger threat to KH than Castlevania..
