If Yoshi breaks 46, I feel confident in MM>Snake, and that's all,
if Yoshi breaks 49, I think MM>Snake is assured and
MM>Sonic/Crono is possible, if Yoshi wins in a close one, I feel
confident in MM>Sonic/Crono, if Yoshi wins with 52.5+ I feel that
MM>Males is very possible. ...whatever you need to sleep at night. --- *kills self Commit it to memory. |

So how much of a Dante need before Yoshi-comeback is so screwed? Tough to say.

we freeze with a 108 vote lead, which Yoshi finally started padding near the end of the update.. ..hm. no idea what to expect here - Yoshi's doing better than I would have expected in the early going since I figured Dante would get the bracket vote. --- xyzzy |

I sooo want a Yoshi win, just to see it screw over the board

performance? --- Our shields cannot withstand wavedashing of this magnitude! Board 8's Unofficial Master of the Phoenix Down |

From Adept of Aiur Posted 10/23/2006 12:05:02 AM Well, it'll be twenty minutes before the real night vote trends even kick in. At least. I'd say closer to an hour before we start seeing consistant night vote updates that will probably hold up until the morning. TuRtLe ~~~ 43/48 in the contest.

Yoshi is likely the board favourite, actually - at the very least it's 50/50. --- xyzzy |

It's awesome watching Luigi and Yoshi blow stuff out of the water. It'd be fantastic if Luigi actually made Round 3 of a contest for the first time. --- Hispanics 1 | Whites 5 Asians 4 | Blacks 3 |

Karma Hunter | Posted 10/22/2006 9:08:06 PM | message detail |
The board has a slight split for Dante bracket-wise, but they LOVE
Yoshi compared to him. I'm not sure who the board vote would favor
(relatively at least, Yoshi's kicking ass so far). --- *kills self Commit it to memory. |

I'm pretty sure Yoshi is the board favorite. This will kill a lot of casual brackets though, for sure. --- Demyx > Axel Z1mZum owned me in the Guru Contest with his mad skills! |
dragoontheguy | Posted 10/22/2006 9:08:29 PM | message detail |
A nice start for yoshi. If he can hold back dante enough during the
night, we'll have quite a match on our hands, but i'm not holding my
breath. Now watch as yoshi stabalizes at this percentage and gains more during the day just to make me look bad. >_> --- 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! |
