Crap, it's so close to the end of the match. All of these stalls/losses
on Jill are drastically affecting the median needed to win. Waaaah. No, Jill, no! --- If you hate Final Fantasy Mystic Quest, then you no longer exist to me. >_> |

20 votes does not make this match over, believe me. a mere 10 votes per
update would probably win this match for Jill, and she was doing that
until ten minutes ago. --- xyzzy |

yeah, but as the night vote gets closer and closer, she's going to do
better. I'm not saying Jill will win, but I'd be surprised if she
didn't speed up come 11pm. --- xyzzy |

That update was big, but it still didn't make up for Peach's last two
updates. Maybe that big gain is a sign of things to come though... --- Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo merge to create...Microtendony! "When the president does it, that means it is not illegal." - Richard Nixon |

yeah, but as the night vote gets closer and closer, she's going to do better. We don't know that for certain. Peach was beating jill in the updates at the start of the match for about a half hour after the board voting/bracket voting/whatever you want to call it wore off. Jill didn't even have a lead of 400 ten hoursi nto the match; she did practically all of her major lead gaining during the school vote. --- When D...

Throw all the damn trends out the window for now. Close matches are
just damn screwy. I knew that update was coming for Jill though, a lot
of times characters just knock back after losing a lot of votes. --- CB06 - Score: 34/38 Rank: Tied - 1458th Yesterday's Pick: Tifa Lockhart Today's Pick: Peach Tomorrow's Pick: Zelda Losses: Cortana, Ganon, Zero, MC |

didn't even have a lead of 400 ten hoursi nto the match; she did
practically all of her major lead gaining during the school vote. in the last 55 minutes she's cut 60 votes. given how Jill did overnight (that first hour or so doesn't count, Ganondorf won that vs. Vincent and you saw what happened there), I'd be surprised if Peach is going to do any better than she is right now. --- xyzzy |

in the last 55 minutes she's cut 60 votes. given how Jill did
overnight (that first hour or so doesn't count, Ganondorf won that vs.
Vincent and you saw what happened there) He failed to do anything during the day? I'd be surprised if Peach is going to do any better than she is right now. I'm noly saying that nothing is certain at this point, and jill's strongest time against peach wasn't the night. That's all. --- When D...

One thing of note tranny, is that the match has been 50/50 for the last
half hour. Jill seems to have stopped coming back consistently at the
moment. --- 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! |

nothing is certain, that's for sure. it wasn't certain that Peach would
win the afterschool vote either.. but she did. Jill won the night vote
(and the time during which people were in school), like you'd expect
her to. so far the match really hasn't deviated from what you'd expect.
close matches can sometimes throw trends out the window, but this one
hasn't yet. --- xyzzy |

I'm still shocked at the comeback Peach made. I was expecting her to gain ground, but to put it in perspective: 15:05:01 (Jill's highest lead of 1421) 18:48:11 (when Peach re-took it) That's almost a MC level comeback. --- Do you really need me to bring out the Ovaltine?-Stripey12isback on why hes a war hero. |
