so if im reading the site correctly resident evil won the last three updates
Draco1214 | Posted 7/25/2006 2:22:01 AM | message detail
Yeah, that's right.

The lead hasn't gotten past 400 votes at all in this match. SF's been trying to cut it down, but RE has been trying to regain control.

If we didn't have to take such things as the 'day vote' into account, we would potentially have a candidate for the closest wire-to-wire match on our hands.

You never know. I mean look at CT vs ALttP. CT is definitely night vote and Zelda is definitely day vote, yet there was barely a 500 vote lead ever; hardly any swing at all. Plus there's a good chance RE's day vote isn't that good anyway.

yikes big jump there. are the updates automatic or is someone doint them?
veirge | Posted 7/25/2006 2:43:00 AM | message detail
i played our local arcade today, telling people to vote for SF in gamefaqs. chances are, those arcade addicts barely use the internet except for shoryuken forums. i guess SF cant survive the horror.

God, I hope Street Fighter pulls off the upset.

I think Ceej knew this would otherwise be an easy match for RE and decided to even the odds with the pic. Really wouldn't put it past him.

I'm going to go now, since I've never predicted anything right after I've entered my bracket I predict that Re will hold the lead and then destroy Sf once the dayvote starts.

400 barrier broken :(

well, then. this match wound up much closer than i thought it would be. i really thought Resident Evil would win this one with ease. although, that match pic has got to be in the Top 5 list of match pics that clearly favor one side over the other. yeesh.

Whoa, big ol' jump for RE. Perhaps just an anomaly, but more likely the day vote may just be getting into gear.

and now, Resident Evil gets a 46 vote update out of nowhere. that's one of the biggest updates all match. perhaps the day vote has finally arrived.

It seems like the only time when SF could gain was during the middle of the morning in both coasts, and now that that's over, SF should start gaining without looking back.

Interesting stat - last time when I went down to my Grandma's house (she lives in Mid-Wales, which is like a 2 hour drive away), I missed Kefka/Vercetti AND Magus/Knuckles, which were probably the two most interesting matches of the contest. Now, I'm leaving this Friday, the day of Resident Evil/Street Fighter vs. Final Fantasy. I'll miss Loz/Metal Gear, and interestingly, SMB vs. FF and the final.

Will the curse strike again?

I know I'm late, but this is the absolute worst match picture I've ever seen. This puts stuff like Solid **** and Lettuce Kefka to absolute shame.

Can a picture possibly be any more one-sided and biased than this?

It's almost impossible. Which makes it all the more better that RE is going to win.

Horrible pic, but like FFD said, when RE wins it'll be all the better.

I'm sending Ceej a feedback ticket to use a collaberation of villains in Round 3.

That last update was a good sign for RE, assuming that it means the day vote has begun.

Oh yeah, someone tie Slowflake down and put duct tape over his mouth and typing fingers. No calling allowed!
