As for the total number of brackets it's only about 5k less than what we usually get. --- The Board 8 BOP - http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB6%20BOP.xls Match 2: Mega Man > KOS-MOS Points: 4/4 |

If 2k6 is any indication, this is certainly Mega Man's best time... for whatever that's worth. Hopefully he can redeem himself from the terrible falls he took daily in 2k6. You don't let Snake take the day from you... you just don't. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Yeah, I'm not calling matches within the first hour or two because this
board has a boner for certain characters and will undoubtedly have a
small lead. When the afternoon hits and this crap is still going on,
THEN I'll throw in the towel. Although I have to admit, I didn't think Arthas would get as many votes as he is. Diablo's in trouble. Damnit, the one freakin' time I trust Blizzard.............jerk-offs..... --- KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (0-0) : AFC Wildcard NEXT: at Houston Texans (0-0) |

KOS-MOS should keep building this lead through the night, but yeah, she
needs to get up there toward 1,000 before I start feeling good. --- Experiment status report update: Metroid project 'Dread' is nearing the final stages of completion. |

Haha... what the hell? Did anyone in this topic pick Samus > Axel? If so, could you look at your bracket? Because my bracket is showing Samus > Kerrigan right now. I sure as hell didn't mean to pick that. I have records of sending my bracket to a few people via email just before I submitted it, and when copying it for the guru and all that, it clearly said Samus > Axel. --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

In every poll she's been in KOS-MOS' strongest times are the early and
later hours of the match. She also collapses with the day vote almost
every time. --- doo doo doo I got no sig |

The thing with day votes in these matches is that, unlike the easy
split in 1 on 1 matches, there are now 3 other characters to split it
on and that hinders the other characters. --- "Opinions are like butts, little girl. Everyone's got one and nobody thinks their's stink." -Lunar 2:EB *Claims KG's Eclair, C.C. & Tear Grants* |

Maybe so, but if Knuckles can swing 1700 votes his way with a Nintendo
character in the poll, Diablo could probably make up 1000. Maybe. --- doo doo doo I got no sig |

Yeah. But Knuckles's Day Vote is on league of its own... --- "Opinions are like butts, little girl. Everyone's got one and nobody thinks their's stink." -Lunar 2:EB *Claims KG's Eclair, C.C. & Tear Grants* |

Well Knux tore through that day vote without much trouble, granted he
was initially winning in his match, and Rikku's lead only went as high
as 500, but he also had Yoshi to deal with, who is no slouch with the
day vote. In today's match, Diablo doesn't have to worry about MM's day
vote, and we really don't know about Arthas. --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

Yeah, Knuckles was assured to take the day because of how beastly he is
when the sun rises. Diablo isn't on that level... assuredly, he's
facing off against characters with worse night votes, but the point
stands. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Diablo's % on M. Bison before the sun rose: 51.53% Final %: 52.88% Diablo's % on Kefka before the sun rose: 51.41% Final %: 54.09% Also, he only allowed Ganon to gain 0.4% on him from sun-up to poll close, and he made up over 1% against Sonic during the day. I repeat: it's very silly to count him out. --- thengamer.com/xstats = lol x-stats Still smarting from the beatdown Rufus applied in the Guru Contest! |

For what it's worth, Warcraft pulled away from GTA during the day. Maybe Arthas has a good day vote? --- Currently Playing: Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Persona 3 |

Well if KOS-MOS can keep pulling in updates like that, it very well may
be over soon, but I'm not willing to say anything until she had a lead
of 1,000, and even then it's not a lock depending on the circumstances. --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

uh, yeah, Arthas got more votes than Diablo that update. ...we could be seeing some serious **** from Arthas. I'm more scared of him getting second than Diablo right now, for whatever reason.

I'm with the tranman on this one. Arthas for CB2K8, yo. I really hope he takes 3rd place here, that would make for epic lulz.

he made up over 1% against Sonic during the day. It's worth noting that Diablo was linked about halfway through the match...that likely played a part in it, though I figure he and Sonic would have still duked it out over the day-vote. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board.

Perhaps Thrall > Vergil IS possible... Well, it was never impossible, just a standard upset pick. The clincher for me was hearing from my little brother and his WoW friends that every single player knew Thrall, and many would bother to vote for him. This, coupled with my sincerest doubt of Vergil possessing a dedicated fanbase, sealed the deal. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Now that I've seen it, I think Arthas there is Diablo's Achilles Heel.
He's splitting the Blizzard vote and KOS-MOS is doing JUST ENOUGH to
take advantage of it update by update. I'd like to be wrong, but
granted Arthas doesn't stop magically losing support during the day and
Diablo rules the roost, I think KOS-MOS is moving on...........thanks
to Arthas. --- KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (0-0) : AFC Wildcard NEXT: at Houston Texans (0-0) |

This is one of the craziest ****ing things I've ever seen. Arthas is
dragging Diablo into a god damn hole. Is it pic factor? Is it Tuesday
factor? I don't know but it's impressive. --- Pokemon Pearl Code: 2663-9266-2709 WWEGSB Hardcore Legend and Board 8er Masa/Hiko |

How's this for a list format?
