How have the last game contests gone for FF vs LoZ? The only one I can remember is the one where LoZ OoT(?) got taken out before the final match. It was FFVII(?) vs Chrono Trigger. I don't remember when that was though and I've been gone for about ~2 years. I think that i was a individual game contest but honestly I'm having trouble remembering which Zelda and which FF it was. |

Maintenance at a rather inconvenient time. Is this the beginning of the end or just a random Zelda spike? =/ --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? SpC2k6 (61/64) LoZ v FF |

...O_O at the lag. I posted that at 7:03 or 7:04... and it only registered then. Then again, the lag increases exponentially for me in the Stats Topic, for whatever reason. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? SpC2k6 (61/64) LoZ v FF |

Maintenance? Now? WTF, Ceej Final Fantasy VII won the Games Contest and took out OoT. Link to the Past lost to Chrono Trigger. FF6 lost to Link to the Past. Wind Waker lost to Starcraft. FFX lost to SSBM. The original LoZ and FF both got beaten by Mario 3. --- Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace.

Oh, and FFT lost to MGS...just thought I'd throw it in because I'm sure some people are voting for FF based on that. --- 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. |

well, look at that. Final Fantasy did start pushing back. it looks like
this could be the closest final match we have ever had. although the
7:00 update was the biggest update Zelda won since 3:50. the day vote
could be about to start...... --- please NOMINATE BAHAMUT!!! or i will eat your soul. |

Well, FF is still cutting into the lead. Not as fast as before, but we are approaching/at the morning vote, so that's not too unexpected. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? SpC2k6 (61/64) LoZ v FF |

Another small, small slice for FF. Too small to matter in the grand
scheme of things, but I'm surprised Zelda isn't winning updates by
triple digit votes right now. --- 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. |

The increase in votals means that people are gradually starting to
awaken. This next hour is very crucial... and then 8-9 will probably
tell us whether it's going to be a barn burner.... or if Zelda will do
what it normally does. --- Everything's 10X better with a RKO and Orton pose. ~ Donkey111 |

Well, not to put a damper on this, but it's not *quite* morning yet.
Metal Gear was still gaining bits of percentage at this time, and it's
about as much of a weakling with the morning vote as you can imagine. ...which brings back the inevitable reality of a Zelda victory, but facts have never been my strong point. Final Fantasy will win! This is the Colbert Report! --- 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. |

Awesome, the final was the hardest match to predict before the contest
started (IMO) and now it seems that it will also be the best match in
this contest. --- Tails would nominate you for the next character contest if he could. |

Meh, this match isn't very good IMO. We all know that there is almost
no chance of FF winning the day vote, and with a 1400 vote deficit to
make up, it really doesnt have a shot... But Final Fantasy still has it in the bag! --- cavedog0: Dec. 2003 - Oct. 2005 Go Pack Go! |

Keeping trends in mind and not focusing on what's happening at the
moment makes comebacks boring. Snake almost came back against Mario.

To be fair, Metal Gear was still holding on to its percentage
here...but FF is better with the day vote (a lot ****ing better), and
that match was on a weekend. --- 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. |

I really don't understand what's going on today. I would think FF would
be winning because FF7 beat OoT. Adding the other games in the series
seems like it would help FF more, too. --- "Silence! You are in the presence of octopus royalty! A lowborn thug like you could never defeat me!" - Ultros |

Bu-Bu-But I have to work tomarrow >:( I would rather have FF lose in
a non-close match so at least I didn't miss anything. Damn the new
