Man, what's up with Subby dropping and falling like that O_o TuRtLe ~~~ I used my brain and statistics to make my bracket. Karma Hunter used MGS fanboyism. KH won. Commit it to memory. |

Dammit. You can't just bring him down 100 votes in 15 minutes and then just stop. That's totally anticlimactic. --- ertyu and VeghEsther are truly proof that there is much about this world we still do not understand. |

Squall would DESTROY Sub Zero If he can kick Snake's ass, of course he'd destroy Sub-Zero. --- Hispanics 2 | Whites 5 Asians 5 | Blacks 3 |

Once again I point to Kairi/Claire. If MC doesn't impress by 4:30, then he's a dud and I was wrong. TuRtLe ~~~ I used my brain and statistics to make my bracket. Karma Hunter used MGS fanboyism. KH won. Commit it to memory. |

KH, people last night were saying with absolute certainty that the match was over because Sub-Zero would win the day vote. Who? I've only had a chance to skim the topics, but I didn't see anybody claim Sub-Zero would have a better day vote than Master Chief. --- "Those whose memories fade seek to carve them in their hearts..."

I remember many of us saying Sub would do better with the day than
Frog, and I remember some of us saying it would be funny if Sub beat MC
worse with the day-vote...but I'm not sure if anybody actually bought
it. --- Z1mZum performed a hit and run on me in the Guru Contest. It still hurts to be rear-ended like that..... |

35 minutes later and the lead has gone nowhere. Well, I guess if MC can keep the lead at 4000, he'll make it a 51.5% loss. --- ertyu and VeghEsther are truly proof that there is much about this world we still do not understand. |

Sub-Zero is just stalling too much. It's going to take a complete
collapse on his part or votes taken away for MC to have a prayer here. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

Very impressive performance by Sub-Zero. Taking 340 updates against the
Chief in the afternoon? Sub-Zero burried this match a while ago. --- Happy Happyists 4th on the Oracle Team Challenge. 3rd on Spread Betting! |

Well...with Master Chief's dominant day vote, so far he has cut off...30 votes from Sub-Zero's peak lead. WELL ON HIS WAY TO A COMEBACK! --- Squall Leonhart's Road to the Character Battle V Championship: Round 1: Status of Tidus - LIONHEART'D |

huh., guess I overreacted to that 15 minute cut. Sub really is going
50/50 with the Chief here. it'll probably go down a little, but not
under 51%. ..I guess. who knows. --- xyzzy "12 percent of those who liked opera had experimented with magic mushrooms." - Reuters |

What a lamo match. Its not even interesting... LAMO. MC is the turd of the round. No doubt. There is respect to losing to Luigi... and Sub Zero isn't bad... but his crapperific. KB |

Though Chief is the biggest tool of them all. He could take off 2500
votes and still go down as the biggest joke of this entire contest. ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest Now Playing: Disgaea 2, PW:AA, KH:COM (Sora), Castlevania: LoI |

MC needs to on average chop over 44 votes off the lead per update from
now until the end to win. He might make it closer, but a comeback seems
highly unlikely at this point. --- 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! |

When was a comeback ever likely? Chief's godly day vote is overblown
because people are giving credence to Frog and DK, two characters that
are complete ass during the day. ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest Now Playing: Disgaea 2, PW:AA, KH:COM (Sora), Castlevania: LoI |

Is that five minute or fifteen minute update? Five minutes. When was a comeback ever likely? Chief's godly day vote is overblown because people are giving credence to Frog and DK, two characters that are complete ass during the day. The comeback while unlikely was entirely possible ufor a large amount of the match. MC doesn't have an overrated day vote per se, people just don't realize how much he'd have to come back each update in order to take a lead. --- When D...

And when I say large amount I mean during a good deal of the night. I
can't believe how people are taking my wording of "highly unlikely". I
just don't like to use the word impossible, that doesn't mean I thought
he was going to win until recently. --- 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! |

Who? I've only had a chance to skim the topics, but I didn't see
anybody claim Sub-Zero would have a better day vote than Master Chief. Lucid Faia did say that Master Chief had a 0% chance at coming back around noon, which is still pretty cocky. --- Z1mZum totally owned me in the July 2006 Guru Contest The Funky Chickens in Trivia XVIII |
