XD at Subby winning. Let's just say that the release of MK: Armageddon was timed EXTREMELY well for him. Move this match three days earlier and he'd be getting his ass kicked. --- "Thank you, Mario. But our princess is in another castle." -Toad in Super Mario Bros. |

Sub zero this increased by over .3%. I have a feeling that this match is close to over. He seems to be building a lead that no amount of day vote can overcome. --- When D... I'd be able to finish this sig if Z1mZum didn't own me so hard in the guru contest. Congrats on your victory! |

Subby get 30%ish on Auron I say. He is really getting overrated thru the anti-votes. Auron crushes Sub. --- wavedash Ozzie's in a pickle! |

At this rate, Subby will have an insurmountable lead after 3 hours. --- Do you really need me to bring out the Ovaltine?-Stripey12isback on why hes a war hero. |

Auron got 35% on Scorpion before. Granted, that was before KH2, but KH2
isn't going to help him that much against even Scorpion, much less
Sub-Zero. --- Z1mZum performed a hit and run on me in the Guru Contest. It still hurts to be rear-ended like that..... |

MC is awesome. I think he realizes he'll never be big name, like the
NN, or a total joke, like CATS, so he does his best to leave whatever
impression he can. that said, Pac-Man>Sub-Zero>Master Chief --- Z1mZum>Redtooth Nice list, I counted twenty that would be in my top ten - BlondeAfroHero7 |

Half an hour into its match with Halo, Castlevania led by 405 with 6617 total votes. Half an hour into his match with the Chief, Sub-Zero leads by 319 with 6665 total votes. I'm feeling pretty good about Sub-Zero. If this keeps up he'll lead by a solid 3600 votes by 8 AM. --- Mustache...and green... http://www.rit.edu/~zmb0386/Top100.pdf |

Mmm yep Auron is just sipping his jug coldly watching the destruction
playing out before him. And he doesn't give a crap. Also at this point
I petition Xbox and Xbox 360 be relegated to the drop down list, they
have no relevance. --- Should I start running now? |

Knux/Magus by far. People at least expected this match to be close. Knuckles came out of nowhere. --- Gordon Freeman finally won, but somehow, the universe survived... thus allowing me to tell said universe about how I was owned by NClark128. |
| NewLib | Posted 10/12/2006 9:34:39 PM | message detail |
|
If Sub wins, I say Knux > Magus is still a bigger upset. People kept
noticing the very interesting timing of the new MK game and wondered if
it could have a huge effect on this match. --- --NL-- Z1mZum made me look like Toadette. And made me nominate her. |

MC makes such comebacks look like nothing. Hell, with the after-school vote, he can do that in four updates. --- Z1mZum performed a hit and run on me in the Guru Contest. It still hurts to be rear-ended like that..... |
| RPGuy96 | Posted 10/12/2006 9:35:25 PM | message detail |

On the board, Knux/Magus by a lot. Overall, I'd say this match. --- Mustache...and green... http://www.rit.edu/~zmb0386/Top100.pdf |

Nothing, and I mean nothing will probably ever beat Knuckles beating
Magus. Something of Gordon Freeman beating Link proportions will have
to occur. --- Current Content Score: 30/31 My Collection: http://club.ign.com/b/list/custom?lid=100018&owner=Dark115.&mode=vown |

Something else to look for, DK's largest lead over Chief was 2011, and he hit that at the 11:35am mark! --- Chun-Li's Road to the Female Final Four: vs Lara (October 21st) One down, two to go! *Currently playing Tales of the Abyss* |

Knuckles > Magus was a much. much larger upset. A lot of people had
magus taking his division. MC even making into round three is a highly
unpopular upset pick it seems. I don't have it myself or anything, I
just figured more people would. --- When D... I'd be able to finish this sig if Z1mZum didn't own me so hard in the guru contest. Congrats on your victory! |
| greatone10 | Posted 10/12/2006 9:37:03 PM | message detail |

This may be the biggest first round upset of all time going by bracket
percentage. You know the casuals love overrating the hell out of Master
Chief, and MC is also a heavy board favorite. --- RIP Eddie Guerrero 1967-2005 Z1mZum made me look like Shadow Hearts in the Guru contest. |
| Karma Hunter | Posted 10/12/2006 9:37:18 PM | message detail |

This match is going to be an absolute killer if Subby wins. It doesn't
hurt that it would be the first time MC has ever lost in the first
round. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |
| dragoontheguy | Posted 10/12/2006 9:37:33 PM | message detail |

But still, it's upsets like this that make this contest exciting to
watch, even after my bracket has beenrendered worthless via elimination
in the guru contest. --- When D... I'd be able to finish this sig if Z1mZum didn't own me so hard in the guru contest. Congrats on your victory! |

Yeah, while this wasn't the most popular upset, this was still always
just a one-point match, much like Ocelot/Pac-Man (and Kuja/Glove!
*runs*). ...Then again, so was Magus/Knuckles! Most people (including myself) just didn't realize it. --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." http://www.scorehero.com/scores.php?user=2916&diff=4 |

MC's not going to get his day vote until much later in the day, and hopefully by then, Sub's way out of his reach!! --- ~*Ex~Tha*~ Sometimes it's darkest just before dawn. |
