It doesn't really matter how this ends, the gap between the Noble Nine
and non-Noble Nine characters is going to be very small. No sense in
trying to say you can't see someone winning because another character
would be too close. --- "My ambition is to create the coolest Link that's ever existed." -- Keisuke Nishimori, Twilight Princess |

the board loves Crono too, plus Sonic didn't have a high prediction
percentage either. and he's the board bracket favourite of course. not that people should still be bracket voting at this point, but whatever! --- xyzzy |

Sonic will probably take it down to at least around 52% by the time the
poll ends, but he has to start making a comeback pretty soon if he
wants a real shot at winning. --- "No, not just an urge - more than that. It was my destiny to be here; in the box." - Naked Snake |

So, Crono takes the board vote and will more than likely dominate all
night. How much of a lead will Crono need to be considered a lock?
