If it's worth anything (and it probably isn't), more people at the top have Snake winning it all.

Bracket-voting is more in favor of Mega Man. I guarantee casual brackets don't bracket-vote anything like board 8. Snake might be getting lots "underdog" votes, though, or however you'd like to put it. If Snake wins, the leaderboard will be destroyed, indeed...I'd imagine 80+% of the high ranks will have Mega Man...could be wrong.

If things continue like this, MM couldin't come back even if he summoned KH and Halo at the same time in the day.

I'm kind of glad this is anti-climatic. My guess is that Sonic vs Crono will be a lot closer and I can't handle to barnburners in a row.

Whenever one character boosts like Snake did the other one always seems to knock back.

the lead still increased, it's nothing to worry about. Mega Man is yet to win a 5 minute update.

How much will Mega swing in the day? 2000? 3000? He still has a shot, but he has to stop this bleeding of votes NOW.

I also predict Snake takes this next update with 54%

Haste_2 | Posted 11/8/2006 9:44:10 PM | message detail
I used least squares formulas to estimate Snake over Mega Man with 51.5%...not a whole lot of data, but...oh well. If it miraculously ends nearly spot on, I'd consider my estimated values for both Mega Man and Solid Snake to be correct.

Haste_2 | Posted 11/8/2006 9:46:29 PM | message detail
Snake = Snake 2K5; Mega Man = 36% on BL. Yes, I excluded Sora (and Riku and Squall)...again, it's not very much data to make a fantastic guess.

Hmm...I don't think I could agree with that, it seems that Snake's gone up at least a point or so looking at the Yoshi match. I don't think this is ALL MM sucking (though it being the majority is certainly possible).

Haste_2 | Posted 11/8/2006 9:50:38 PM | message detail
Yeah...if Snake beats that 51.5%, which it looks like he will, I'd attribute that to Snake' being stronger than Mega Man being even weaker.

Hmm... Snake/Mega Man is so following Mario/Crono. Next year, they'll face off again with Mega Man winning with the percent Snake wins this one. Just watch, Mega Man will get announced for SSBB and will SFF Snake's Nintendo votes away from him, just as it should be!

Though I'd probably like Snake a good deal if I ever played MGS.

I haven't gotten around to getting a copy of MGS yet... I have one of MGS3, but I was told by a reliable source on AIM that I should play the first two games before it and occupy myself with Xenosaga until I get them.

...Though 'Xenosaga' quickly transformed into 'Guitar Hero.' >_>

I mentioned Squall already.

If there is still any SFF between Squall/Snake... Squall > Mega man

It also help justify Squall > Ganon > Bowser

Lets see how Tifa, Samus, Zelda all look after all is settled but...

Squall is looking good right now.

Gah, knew I should have left before the 1 am night vote start time >_<

This is weird seeing Snake looking to start getting consistant 60% updates on Mega Man.

Guess it was just MM's turn to fall off the map completely before storming back the next year.
