Ugh. *kills GameFAQs' voters...again* OK, Chunners has this, but Lara will be shaving off percentage a lot. I expect her to break 42.5%. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs9/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=22242738 Sign plz AC2K6 Score: 42/44 Today: Yuna |

*yawn* so much for sleeping.... btw guys - Lara Croft is totally coming back now. well, she's at least stalling Chun Li. Lara's shaved off 20 votes in the past 10 minutes. honestly, though, who seriously didn't expect Chun Li to give up the day vote? it is Street Fighter 2 after all. the only question is whether Lara will actualy make this match interesting or just stall Chun Li for the rest of the day. --- This is cyko posting from a friend's house!!! >_> |

Lara Croft wins her first update in three years! um, i'm pretty sure she won a couple of updates against Alyx Vance. lemme check, though, because i might be mistaken. *goes to check* . . . . . . . . . . . oh, my bad. you're right. it turns out that Alyx is so crappy that she doesn't really exist. carry on. --- This is cyko posting from a friend's house!!! >_> |

Wow, I didn't think Chun-Li would fall that quickly. From 61% to 57% by morning? Looks like this might end up within 55-45 after all. X-Stats win again! --- Moltar Status: Feeling good and hot-blooded. Chun-Li vs. Lara - Bracket: Chun-Li - Vote: Chun-Li (42/46) |

Reading through this topic, it's nice to see Lara getting some credit.
And Lara is actually on the verge of hitting 42.5% here, yay. I always
said that was her floor - she'll probably far exceed that, even
possibly hitting 45%. So where are all the people that care about Legends now? Did the 7 fans realize that Lara is still weak? a) It's "Legend". At least get it right if you're going to brag. b) Could you not act like an ass? As far as I can see, Lara is far exceeding your crew pick right now. But still, people were calling for an upset here. ...WHY? Things could have come together to give Lara a win. It was definitely feasible. Chun being overrated, Legend, pic advantage, some sort of random fluctuation, seeding and bracket advantage... Lara had a lot going for her. I always said that if Lara would ever win this match, it would all have to come together perfectly. People were saying "Legend will do very little for Lara". ...right. A potential 45% disagrees with you. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs9/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=22242738 Sign plz AC2K6 Score: 44/46 Today: Chun (Urgh) |

I had Chunners with 52.5%... and it's looking like she's probably gonna
end up around 55%, ah well, at least it's better than the 61% she was
putting up last night. --- Portugal. The Man Cheer Up Emo Kids |

Hopefully Lara will end at around 45%...in which case she would have a

In the rest of the world, Lara is the most popular female VG character whether you like it or not.

Ha, I'd forgotten exactly how pathetic SF was in the morning. I'd
expect Lara to be good with it, but she's shaved off over 4% and is
still going. Random statistic - it took Chun-Li six hours and twenty minutes to increase her lead from 5600 to 6600. --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." http://www.scorehero.com/scores.php?user=2916&diff=4 |

Heh...I have no idea when the latest pics came up, but Mega Man looks hilarious. I didn't say anything yesterday...wow. I figure Yuna would've matched Mario's score if the match was done the -previous- year. It makes me wonder if Mario still gets a good amount of anti-votes. For today...I guess not a real surprise. It's hard to make any judgments about Chun Li's strength (i.e. was Bowser over-rated?). Bowser/Crono will be the best one to get a better idea on that, though it's too bad it happens so late in the round. (I won't trust Mega Man/Ryu, unless Mega Man easily exceeds the SC2K5 x-stat projections) --- Sign the Petition for more stats in the GameFAQs Contests here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=30693799 |
