| Seeing as how Yoshi will push this gap to at least 1000, Dante will need the evening and night votes from hell. It took him hours to erase Yoshi's 600 vote lead last night, so he's pretty much done for. |

In short, you all suck. Now let's all laugh at me and how my speed
bracket is actually doing better than my serious bracket at this point! Same here. By 2 points right now, and worse still my zero bracket is only at 2 points. Both my non-serious brackets have more success >_< --- Z1mZum>Redtooth Nice list, I counted twenty that would be in my top ten - BlondeAfroHero7 |

HM, Leon and creative were the most outspoken against LUEshi 402, and they all have Dante in their brackets. Nice coincidence. It's clearly a conspiracy. We need Mulder, Sherlock Holmes and Batman in here now! --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

You were saying? Dante has no chance. Watch. Yoshi will probably win the next update by like 5 and then the one after that by 60. --- "An intellectual is a man who takes more words than necessary to tell more than he knows." |

From UltimaterializerX Posted 10/23/2006 2:00:59 PM People said that Jill had no chance, and we all saw what happened. I want Dante to make a minor push. Yoshi winning by 402 would be priceless. ~*ST*~ Peach was still coming back when people said that. Plus, she only had a 400 lead at best. Yoshi is lookin got push 1000, and Dante isn't as good at the night vote as Jill as. Dante has no chance. --- Do you really need me to bring out the Ovaltine?-Stripey12isback on why hes a war hero. |

I see that someone had been manually updating a lot of the updates that weren't caught on time. Thanks for that :) You're welcome. <3 Yoshi's percentage by the hour: 17:00 | 52.44% 16:00 | 52.01% 15:00 | 51.15% 14:00 | 48.78% 13:00 | 47.99% 12:00 | 49.14% 11:00 | 50.57% 10:00 | 50.67% 09:00 | 50.37% 08:00 | 51.65% 07:00 | 51.64% 06:00 | 48.75% 05:00 | 47.14% 04:00 | 47.17% 03:00 | 48.13% 02:00 | 49.62% 01:00 | 52.75% Based on what Dante was able to do with the first night vote, and during school vote, and what Yoshi's doing now, I'd say this match is safely in the paws of the little green dino. --- Mustache...and green... http://www.rit.edu/~zmb0386/Top100.pdf |

It took him hours to erase Yoshi's 600 vote lead last night, Vote traffic will also be much heavier later today that during the dead hours. The problem is that he won't be dominating the updates by as match. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

And how is that steadily decreasing in vote gains? I didn't say steadily decreasing I said consistently getting updates where he gains less. That doesn't mean every update, but in the past half hour he's had a handful of very small gains. --- "An intellectual is a man who takes more words than necessary to tell more than he knows." |

I don't see how Dante can come back from this. Even if he wins updates
consistently in the evening, the amount he'll need to take off after
Yoshi finishes dominating during the day will be insane. Dante isin't
Jill and I doubt Yoshi is Peach either with the evening vote. --- Demyx > Axel Z1mZum owned me in the Guru Contest with his mad skills! |

"Dante isn't Jill" is a nice battle cry. Historically, Dante is
freakishly consistent during his matches, though his trend is to lose
percentage overall. He might be done if he doesn't get this under
control quick. ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest Now Playing: Disgaea 2, KH:COM (Sora), Castlevania: LoI, MMZX, FFL2 |

HM, Leon and creative were the most outspoken against LUEshi 402, and they all have Dante in their brackets. Nice coincidence. I've got Yoshi, and am one of his biggest fans, and can't say I was overly thrilled. LUEshi has never been very entertaining, nor should it be associated with LUE, as they didn't even create it. Also, we never did anything for the 200th topic when a few people had wanted to, so I see no reason to celebrate an arbitrary day for a random ASCII. Plus, since when do we care about LUE here; it's really overrated. Moving on, THIS IS A GREAT DAY FOR SUPREME YOSHI JUSTICE! --- Revenge is a dish best served by Z1mZum in the 2k6 Series Guru Contest. |
