At this rate, Sonic should have the lead within an hour and a half, leaving him with about 2.5 hours to build a lead before they start going 50/50 until 12.

It was like a day or so before the 2k3 contest. Don't compare it to 2k2.


It was a joke. >_>

And you people called me crazy last night when I said this match would have massive vote swings.

EVERYONE thought this match would have a decent swing (the general sentiment was that Crono needed 54% or so before the morning to have it locked up), but you were talking about a 10000 vote comeback. As it stands this will be a comeback from a 2200 vote deficit, and it'll STILL be the biggest comeback of all time.

You need to get a sense of scale.

58% update for Sonic. Good Lord.

This. Is. So. Awesome. The perennial rear-end of the Noble Niners are both getting over the hump in a big way, and they'll cap it all off with the showdown between each other that we've been calling for since the concept was created. Except instead of it being for the title of weakest NNer, it'll be for the a berth in the FINALS.

Just out of curiosity, what did you call last year?

And Mario/Samus doesn't count since that is by far Board 8's dumbest moment.

HaRRicH | Posted 11/10/2006 12:25:34 PM | message detail
I doubt. Give me one good, conclusive reason why Mega Man dropped?

I won't believe a massive drop like that unless Snake loses to today's winner by a good amount.


I can't give you a conclusive reason, but I figure a part of it is an influx of newer gamers coming here -- the 360's came out since last year (though that didn't help Joanna, to be fair), two huge systems are on the horizon, and the most impressive things he's done since 2000 was go 3D in games that were supposedly duds and have some multi-platform collections (which contests will show they've hardly helped)...and yes, I know, Crono, but Mega Man's not Crono here...period. Even last year, with similar strengths, Crono still is gonna have many more hardcore fans. CT would beat the entire Mega Man series here (and CC could beat any Mega Man game, to boot), so no, Mega Man's no Crono...

...then throw in what he allowed Axel and Sora to do and failing to match Bowser on Ryu before losing to Solid Snake like he did, and that's my arguement for Mega Man dropping enough (though I am NOT saying it's all MM dropping, obviously).

And it makes me sad how all of these traditions will be broken this year.

Although the small "CATS predicts the winner" one might still have a chance to survive.

Another nice cut by Sonic.

I truly hope Ceej lets Clinkarioth back into the main bracket next year. It will be interesting to see how Cloud/Sephiroth stack up to the rest of the Noble Nine after the Wii.
