And finally it seems that MegaMan and Crono have begun their decline.

You know, if Sonic wins, I'm feeling pretty good with Snake winning the male half. If it's Crono on the other hand, I feel it's pretty split, and I slightly favor Crono at the moment.

Wow, I've got a feeling my leaderboard berth will be short-lived. Sonic
has been chipping away at this lead for a while, and he could really
make a comeback push with the afterschool vote, especially seeing how
bad Crono's day vote has been this year. ...y'know, if I'd just made my bracket in terms of bias this year, I have an odd feeling I'd be in prime contention to win this. o_O --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

I wouldn't use trends from a match a year ago between different
characters during a time when there was no school. you can pretty much
throw old trends out and look at it this way - Sonic has done well for
himself in every match this year during the day and Crono has done
terrible. Crono might be able to hold him off, but it doesn't look good
given that the afterschool vote is going to hit fast and hard. --- xyzzy |
