http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2343 I don't get it... .40*47 + .60*56 = 52.4%, yet CV has significantly less. I guess that means a higher percentage of IE people have voted already, or the big increase in voters since that poll is skewed toward IE. --- Take off every sig. |

Wtf mate? KH comes back slowly, then CV gets like 3 updates of 40 votes. --- ...little Weezing it's gonna stand up against my ****in' Charizard? Just get back on your bike and keep pretending to be cool with your lame ass mohawk ****er. - phoenix1487 Sp2k6: 20/22 tied for 1990th |

Not like it means a whole lot, but KH was .01 from it's final
percentage at 4:05 and Castlevania was .02 off at 4:20. I think
Castlevania has the advantage here. --- Take off every sig. |

Way to go CJayC for that info. It's great when he shares that kind of stuff. And the "night people are more likely to use non-IE browsers" is almost certainly true, I would think. So this is a bit of good news for KH, not bad. Though the match is still a near toss-up, with CV having a slight edge. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I think with the IE thing, maybe Firefox users are more proud of using
it and wanted to vote in the poll, while IEers just don't give a ****,
so there's actually a lot more IE users than polls indicated. I
dunno... just a wild theory. --- ...little Weezing it's gonna stand up against my ****in' Charizard? Just get back on your bike and keep pretending to be cool with your lame ass mohawk ****er. - phoenix1487 Sp2k6: 20/22 tied for 1990th |

| There could be an overlap with European voters and Firefox users. Firefox actually has a higher market share in that continent compared to North America. The effect is probably not all that large though. |

From Starion Posted 7/21/2006 4:51:05 AM #414 There could be an overlap with European voters and Firefox users. The same Europe that hasn't seen KH2 yet.

From: LeonhartForever Plus, we're going to have a lot more people voting in this poll than in that IE/Firefox poll. Obviously, but most small polls will still reflect similar percentages when more people are polled. Most matches end within a few percentage points as they were 10000 votes in. Or you could easily take what Ceej said and say that wa sonly for a couple thousand votes, for other times the percentages for the browsers were different. --- ...little Weezing it's gonna stand up against my ****in' Charizard?

The same Europe that hasn't seen KH2 yet. This poll is far from over, but I still want to see CV pull this off. Yeah, unless CV goes on a huge tear soon, it might be in real trouble once daybreak hits. --- Organization XIII - Number III - Xordac Currently Playing - Suikoden V, Capcom vs. SNK 2 |

At this point in its match against Castlevania, Halo was down by 3436
votes. Needless to say, Kingdom Hearts is doing a much better job at
getting through these dead hours, but can its day vote pull through? --- Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your WOOOOOOOOORLD!!! |

It really depends on how much of a difference KH2 will make. Europe
hasn't played it, yet KH is still going toe-to-toe with CV. Come
daybreak, KH might actually do much better than now. --- Organization XIII - Number III - Xordac Currently Playing - Suikoden V, Capcom vs. SNK 2 |

CV had its highest percentage on halo about nine or ten hours into the
match, so it probably still has a good deal of time left to build its
lead. I'm not convinced kh will do anything significant during the
daytime either, but you never know, The smallest shift could give this
match a new outcome given how close it is. --- When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right. ~ Victor Hugo {WoT}~> Board 408 |

Yeah, at 8:30 AM EST, CV had its highest percentage against Halo.
However, for what it's worth, Sora began to crush Alucard at around
5:45 AM EST. --- Organization XIII - Number III - Xordac Currently Playing - Suikoden V, Capcom vs. SNK 2 |
| dragoontheguy | Posted 7/21/2006 2:42:09 AM | message detail |

And with that monster of an update, CV goes ahead 75- votes, and breaks over 51%. I don't think comparing alucard to CV gives us an accurate measure of its voting patterns, its already proven itself to not be a complete joke with the day vote like alucard is. --- When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right. ~ Victor Hugo {WoT}~> Board 408 |

Also for what its worth, the day vote is what saved KH from Soul
Calibur. I think KH is going to have stronger day vote than expected. --- Organization XIII - Number III - Xordac Currently Playing - Suikoden V, Capcom vs. SNK 2 |

KH also lost percentage during the day against harvest moon for
whatever that's worth. I'm not saying it has a bad day vote, it just
isn't anything astonishing from what we've seen. --- When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right. ~ Victor Hugo {WoT}~> Board 408 |

Not really. From 9:30 AM EST to the end of the match, KH did nothing but gain percentage against Harvest Moon. --- Organization XIII - Number III - Xordac Currently Playing - Suikoden V, Capcom vs. SNK 2 |

On a second look you're right on that asccount, however gaining 1% on
harvest moon is hardly impressive. It isn't going to be able to
absolutely kill cv with the day vote, so the lead can't get too large
if kh is going to come back. --- When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right. ~ Victor Hugo {WoT}~> Board 408 |

You're assuming that cv is also weak with the day vote. It isn't. KH might not be capable of that 1%. --- When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right. ~ Victor Hugo {WoT}~> Board 408 |

Castlevania lost 1% against Halo during the day. KH might be able to manage. It's no guarantee though. --- Organization XIII - Number III - Xordac Currently Playing - Suikoden V, Capcom vs. SNK 2 |
| dragoontheguy | Posted 7/21/2006 3:01:28 AM | message detail |

It would be likely that halo is very strong with the day vote. Losing
1% in the day to it is actually somewhat good. I dion't know, I just
don't see kh being an absolute monster with the day vote. It will start
doing better, but I don't think it'l be enough. I could easily be wrong
though. --- When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right. ~ Victor Hugo {WoT}~> Board 408 |

| I think the day vote should be more then a enough to even this thing up. It's going to be within a few hundred votes either way. I'm rooting for CV but KH may take the day vote and the win. |

Kay Aitch is stalling here and there, but this lead could break 1000
soon here. It needs to make a move soon, because we're not going to get
any dramatic trends out of this contest. It'll be a gradual push, and
it needs to start it as this day vote comes -- otherwise, it'll just
end up as a more impressive Halo. --- Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace. These are codes of behavior. |
