This might be stating the obvious, but the vote totals have to be from people staying up to see the last match end. --- Oklahoma State Cowboys: 4-2 - back in my good graces with a 42-32 win over Kansas Next: vs. Texas A&M (HOMECOMING, 9/21) |

| nah, a lot of this is the sick amount of people
watching from the last match. Terra will cut this lead quite a bit in a
few minutes, I imagine. I can't imagine her staying at freaking 80%. but still, whoa jesus that's a lot of votes --- xyzzy |

he was going to do that for all close matches or something, or was that
just for the series 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! |

Oh, and I forgot to give my prediction of Zelda kicking Terra's ass to
oblivion. Yes, I would have called an even bigger beating than Dante.
Dante is popular, but he's not universal. I could see a part of the
FFVI fanbase not familiar with DMC supporting her. Zelda is popular AND
universal. She obliterates anything Terra brings to the table. --- Currently playing: Grand Theft Auto 3, Castlevania:Curse of Darkness, Mega Man ZX |

It's not just losing either. It's trying to catch up and only needing
possibly one more update to win the match. We should get Jill, Frog,
Master Chief, and DK in future matches. They always seem to make things
close. --- Now playing: Castlevania:DOS | Queue: Okami | Waiting for: SMT:Devil Summoner, FF12, Castlevania:POR |

Zelda won't keep this up. This great start stems partly from the fact
that dozens of dozens of Nintendo fans were rallying for Jill just a
few minutes back, and those arriving late to the IMs are coming to
GameFAQs to see that other Princess in action. But regardless, this is a heck of a showing from Zelda yet again. Bring on Samus! --- thengamer.com/xstats - "lol x-stats," The Contest Simulator thengamer.com/gamefaqs - The Contest Archives |

Her getting MARIO like numbers at Square's best time? Will none of you believe me until Yoshi beats Dante's face in? You seem to act like you're the only one who has brought up the idea of Nintendo boosting this year -- you're not. You are, however, the only one who continuously looks for ways to try to justify that Nintendo is boosting. It's possible to determine anything right now. We just came off of a close match featuring a Nintendo character and vote totals are insanely high; we're also in the middle of the board vote. Zelda will certainly be high by the end considering FF6 has a horrendous day vote and Zelda has a great one. You should wait longer than 10 minutes into the match before saying anything. --- "Looking good, Princess, especially from this angle!" |

So what does Aeris have to get on KOS MOS to look like she stands a chance against Zelda? Nothing. Aeris/KOS-MOS is another Tifa/Vyse waiting to happen, I'd wager. This says virtually nothing about Zelda, and neither does Aeris' match about her. You want a match that'll tell us something? Try Sonic/Vincent -- if Vincent can give Sonic a scare that'll speak toward Ganon's strength, which in turn will make Zelda look good. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

If Aeris hits high 70%, I would be really worried. KOS-MOS has some
strength behind her and that would really be one heck of a strong Aeris
to do that. --- Our shields cannot withstand wavedashing of this magnitude! Board 8's Unofficial Master of the Phoenix Down |

this will be a stronger KOS than last year... but I think Aeris can do
better against KOS than she could against Marle. Xenosaga simply isn't

If Aeris falls short of the doubling I'll basically concede her chances
