Ouch.... looks like this aint over yet. Think SF will dominate until morning and snatch the day vote? TuRtLe ~~~ Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy. -trancer1 |

I sure hope so, Turtle. And SF didn't have an abnormal gain there either, RE just dropped like 40 votes. --- Sp2k6: 28/30 Rank: Tied for 460th Losses: Halo, GTA but im gonna cry if he (Sonic) loses. Yesterday's Pick: FF Today: SF Tomorrow: Zelda - Zikten on the Sonic/SSB match |

That was all RE falling, for what it's worth. SF had the exact same number of votes for those two updates. --- "...And then they made me their chief." - Captain Jack Sparrow |

Every time I see something pertaining to Street Fighter getting the day
vote I chuckle. That should tell you what I think of its chances. If it *does* get the day vote...geez, I don't know. It'll be cliche to blame the picture, but...WELL, LOOK AT IT!!! --- Do not kill.

Jill would be at the bottom; in this case, a Jill sandwich is open-faced and face down. --- How disturbing. We are mr_BRIAN. Though We dislike underscores. |

Jill's gradual collapse is really strange. --- Just Got Owned By Guru winner Voltch. |

There are few cases where a match picture makes THAT much of a difference. I have a feeling this will be one of those cases. Ryu and the Hadoken are a friggen ICON. Then RE has that garbage. TuRtLe ~~~ Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy. -trancer1 |

Ryu > Dante > Leon.. now where does Jill fit in? Behind them all, since she wasn't in RE4. For what it's worth, I still don't get this Ryu support. Ryu 2k5 is barely above Dante 2k4. And Ryu has more reason to be overrated. Unless you're counting on some random fluctation putting him over the top, Dante is the safe pick. --- Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal.

Something was weird about Ryu in SC2K5 though. He had been consistent in each of the three previous contests. Something...FISHY! --- "...And then they made me their chief." - Captain Jack Sparrow |

Seriously though, Solid Snake scored 57% on Ryu in 2k3. Is it that
strange to think in his strongest year and that he could score roughly
3% more on him? --- Just Got Owned By Guru winner Voltch. |

I'll tell ya what was so fishy: SF/MK SFF. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about -- Bowser was in the kart and we all know it. Tell me MK wouldn't stand a chance against SF now! --- Miss my Four-Pack Of Fun? Go here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/gentopic.php?board=585007 |

Well, there's a couple of reasons for Ryu's value to be
questionable...aside from 2k2, which being in the West Division and
four years back isn't worth that much. Ryu was the first beneficiary of
Solid Snake in the sprite round in 2k3 (admittedly, that was probably
the best sprite picture of Snake he's ever had, but Ryu was damn
impressive). Ryu is *very* high in 2k4, and with SFAC's release and him
and KOS-MOS disappointing in 2k5, something's up there for me too. Even if you take all his previous stat values as legitimate, KOS-MOS is still puzzling. --- 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. |

Ryu was just embarrassed by seeing a woman wearing so few clothes! He wasn't used to it! And it carried over into the match with Bowser! --- "...And then they made me their chief." - Captain Jack Sparrow |

Even if you take all his previous stat values as legitimate, KOS-MOS is still puzzling. KOS-MOS pulled a Tifa/Vyse. Either that, or that's the effect of Xenosaga Episode II with no TJF for ya... --- "...And then they made me their chief." - Captain Jack Sparrow |

You would know from experience, Leon. Anyway, I'm out. I expect to see SF either come close to the lead or take it before I wake up and see it drown in the day vote. Late. --- Moltar Status: Disappointed, I lost my perfect bracket. Street Fighter vs. Resident Evil - Bracket: RE - Vote: RE (28/30) |

| Not worried at all. This is still SF's strongest time. |

Isn't RE also a night hound? --- Just Got Owned By Guru winner Voltch. |

Resident Evil hasn't shown itself to be a day vote chump, however. --- "...And then they made me their chief." - Captain Jack Sparrow |

SF has been coming back by 16.5 votes per 5 minute update for the last 20 minutes. --- For the sake of simplicity, I'm going to refer to Gordon Freeman versus Tanner as Schrodinger's Match. -Phoenix Flattener |

Nice! That makes six updates out of seven for Street Fighter, and the lead's under 300! --- "...And then they made me their chief." - Captain Jack Sparrow |

So what this match will come down to is whether or not SF can break
it's habit of bombing the day vote by utilizing the pic advantage. TuRtLe ~~~ Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy. -trancer1 |

There have been lots of really strange bursts. I wonder if it's natural
variance or really blatant cheating (seriously, I do wonder). --- For the sake of simplicity, I'm going to refer to Gordon Freeman versus Tanner as Schrodinger's Match. -Phoenix Flattener |

SF is the last series I'd expect cheating from. quite often, there's
weird updates during the night. Castlevania/Halo was full of them. --- xyzzy I lost a sig bet to War13104. Yes, the same guy who had Kefka over Crono. FOR THE HORDE! |

I expect SF to keep cutting like it just did, while RE has strange updates once in a while. It happens in most matches. --- Sp2k6: 28/30 Rank: Tied for 460th Losses: Halo, GTA but im gonna cry if he (Sonic) loses. Yesterday's Pick: FF Today: SF Tomorrow: Zelda - Zikten on the Sonic/SSB match |
