4, then 5, next, 6!!

and although the prospect of Luigi/Sonic is intriguing, my bracket needs Kirby to survive >_>

That cut was even larger than the last cut.

This is awesome. I hope it stays like this throughout the day, even though it inevitably won't.

As much as I want Luigi to dominate, seeing Kirby may a few small cuts, then watching Luigi completely destroy it in one update would be even better. So go Luigi and Kirby.

It's pretty rare to see a match where neither character has taken a lead of over 100 at any point in time a half hour in (were nearing a half hour anyways).

To tie Luigi, Kirby needs 0.24 votes per update.

The last update he got 5.

This match is over!

Small, insignificant cuts have never been succeeded by the more dominant character wiping it out in one update as they march on toward a fairly clear win! Luigi is so screwed.

MyWorldIsZelda | Posted 10/26/2006 9:29:56 PM | message detail
I would imagine that this is because both of these guys are nearly as strong as one another and they're both from Nintendo so that first hour Nintendo vote is splitting between the two. It'll be interesting to see what happens after the first hour, I think.

I agree. The first hour has been flat out dominant for Nintendo this year, and this is the first time we've had Nintendo vs. Nintendo (Peach/Daisy NEVER happened), so seeing what happens once that dies down will be interesting.

Luigi will never make the second round, boyos! Though he gets closer and closer every time, his losses are inevitable!!!

Then again, the same applies for Knuckles.

Obviously Luigi will lose to Knuckles next year by a single vote. Knuckles has the edge since he was snubbed this year.

Honestly, I don't even know who I'm rooting for here. I'd like to see Luigi win for Guy, but red13n has made so many annoying topics about close matches that I'd like to see him get burned for it one of these days.
