Did you just imply that a trailer or two made a 5% difference in yesterday's match? Well, it's over. Snake beats everyone in existence after his games actually release. Yes <_< I find it hard to swallow that Mega Man would randomly fall off the map like he did, and he has every reason to be a constant character going up against all the people that have had reason to boost/be underrated last year. And I've been saying Snake would beat Sephiroth after MGS4 and SSB:B since E3 >_> TuRtLe ~~~ 81/88 in the contest.

Well, it's over. Snake beats everyone in existence after his games actually release. That's the funny thing about trailers...they dilute the effects of an actual game releasing. Link already gets 55% on his 2k2/2k3 self, so he won't be able to increase as much from TP as he would've if the game had had no hype at all. --- "Luckily, I brought my smart sword.

Because he's a known vote stuffer. Sorry for being a noob. I never know Smurf was vote stuffer in the past. Who did he vote stuff. --- I am a Singaporean and hope Snake will do well for the rest of the contest. |

Mega/Sonic went 50/50 and Crono beat MM, and MM/Snake happened 2 years
in a row and both ended in a vicious beatdown of Snake. TuRtLe ~~~ 81/88 in the contest. My analysis topic here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=30498383&page=1 |

I find it hard to swallow that Mega Man would randomly fall off the
map like he did, and he has every reason to be a constant character
going up against all the people that have had reason to boost/be
underrated last year. ...Yeah. You keep finding it hard to swallow after he has not one, not two, but three unimpressive performances and then gets blasted by Snake as a result. You're inability to accept what did happen is sort of the problem here. Mega Man can fall. He did fall. --- "My ambition is to create the coolest Link that's ever existed." -- Keisuke Nishimori, Twilight Princess |

Friction but why do you have to post this question. During the match with Jill people were so suspcicious of me that a mod actually suspended me for Cjay to do a thorough check on my activities. If people were that suspicious about me for Jill, imagine what they'll think for a Sonic match. o_o --- Smurf. The Cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |

I never considered Crono > Sonic a lock. I thought it was going to
be a 52-48 match back then, and that could easily go either way. I was pretty confident in MM > Snake pre-Contest though, but once the male-half kicked in, it began to falter slightly more and more each day. --- Back from the shadows... |

That was with Claire, though it's safe to say that Smurf deliberately aroused suspicion with Jill (and probably tried to stuff as well, but was blocked). --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs9/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=22242738 Sign plz AC2K6 Score: 108/120 Today: Sonic |

No sign of the 12-3 block; these trends do look a lot like Magus/Knuckles. I wouldn't count Crono out of this yet; It's possible he will start gaining again in only 4 hours at best. At worst..... Sonic could win this by over 1000. --- "........!" ~Magus |

Funny how that logic works. Sonic is doing better now, so Crono has
better potential to win the match O_o. Not that I'm saying it's faulty,
just odd. --- Take off every sig. |

And for all the reputation Sonic's day vote has had over the past few
years, Sonic's best hour thus far is only 7% better than his worst.
Bowser's best hour was some 12% better than his worst against Crono. Of
course, Sonic still has the afterschool vote to come, but does anyone
really believe he's going to get a 57% hour later? --- "........!" ~Magus |

Mega Man's day isn't bad either, though. Look at what he did to Crono with it. Which is why it dumbfounds me how poorly he did against Snake. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

only one thing makes me question this result here.. has any character
won the first 90 minutes of the poll and then lost the afterschool
vote? I guess Mega Man vs. the KH guys, but not too many other people -
the NPH usually is just a day vote stuck at the beginning of the poll
for some reason. Crono won that decisively. --- xyzzy |

I love how the entire tournament is up in the air, and we're in the last round of the elite 8. Snake appears to have boosted quite high. Crono looks to have remained constant or a little weaker. If Sonic beats Crono, it implies he's stronger than the #2 character last year. Samus is still favored, though after her match with Tifa her strength is uncertain. If anything, I want Sonic to get to the finals just so I can use my match pic. >_> --- Gordon Freeman finally won, but somehow, the universe survived... thus allowing me to tell said universe about how I was owned by NClark128. |

Sonic doesn't have to be that good with the dayvote. At this time Auron
had 43.47% and he ended with 45.50%. It's Crono who just plain sucks
with it. --- Supporter of Megaman and Sonic |

From Karma Hunter Mega Man's day isn't bad either, though. Look at what he did to Crono with it. Which is why it dumbfounds me how poorly he did against Snake. Snake taking the day vote, and limiting MM to only 7 updates the whole day is evidence to his boost. Snake = day AND night beast. TuRtLe ~~~ 81/88 in the contest.

Well, I was talking about how he was doing in the NPH relative to how
he was doing in the afterschool hours. Crono has had a very nice NPH
this year -- not as good as his true night, but that's to be expected
-- and he's still stunk up the day vote. Same for Snake this year --
though oddly enough, his most impressive day vote was against Mega Man
(or Soma, I guess...but really, Soma?). --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

Well, even if Crono does manage to pull this off, I just don't see him
beating Snake next round. I can't see Samus doing it either. At this
point, I'm taking Snake to win this. --- CB5 Points: 115/120, Current Oracle placement: 22/169 Now playing: Phoenix Wright 2, Final Fanasy XII, Children of Mana |

And Crono having any worse a day vote this year than any other year is
a result of him going up against 2 NIntendo characters and KH2/FF12
