besides, Alucard used what used to be known as both night votes and managed to get a 1200 vote lead in 10 hours. KH got back 2000 votes in half that time.

The good thing that may come out of Kingdom Hearts winning is seeing Metal Gear not fall below 58% on it like I predicted way back when!


Blah. Castlevania losing sucks.

well, this is the first thing behind Starcraft that's managed to impress. looks like KH2 really helped out - either that or the game has just increased in popularity over the last two years.

Really, KH always either has a close match, gets blown out, or blows out. The only thing I can think of that wasn't close, but wasn't far was Sora/Ryu H.

And is it that Harvest Moon and Agent 47 are both stronger than we thought? Or does KH really lack the ability to destroy fodder?

I think Harvest Moon and Agent 47 were bother fodder, yes, but they'd beat quite a few entrants in their respective fields. well, at least what I think.

I think it's the latter. I wouldn't really be surprised if HM is stronger than we thought, but Agent 47? I don't know about that one.

Pokemon. Underrated. Fire Emblem. Underrated. Castlevania. Losing. If the "experts" don't come within 10% of Mario/Warcraft they might as well be replaced with darts thrown at a bracket. I don't even know what to believe anymore, could FF>LoZ be board hype?

It's nice to see that things are actually working out the way I thought they would (for once). Castlevania had a hell of a run, but I think it's safe to say it's over.

O RLY?

No we won't. Only 31.49% had CV going to Round 2, 90.3% had KH going to Round 2, anything else is irrelevant because we're talking about perfects here. Even though KH had the much weaker opponent, you'd be crazy to think there will be less than 200 perfects left after today.

It's KH v Soul Calibur all over again. KH went down early, then used a killer day vote to come back and win.

This kinda sucks, given that I wanted CV to win this. Not that it matters given that I'm out of the contest.

Oh yeah.. you are pretty screwed haha. Thankfully I have KH. I'm still screwed though. Maybe if a ton of the top brackets pick RE and SF wins (I have SF) I could get in the top 100.
