What do you mean why just recently? This is exactly when the
after-school vote starts. This isn't like some major shock. Everyone
was waiting for this to happen. It's just... the comeback is more
powerful than I expected. --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

It's the only example with such a small lead going into the final night
vote. With a 300 vote lead and only a couple hours left, rallying is
what makes the main difference. It's not like Frog's going to lay down
and die if he does get behind by that much. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |

I have Axel winning, but unless he makes 50 vote cuts for a few hours,
I have no faith in him pulling this off. I knew it was an upset pick
going in. This is just how Frog rolls. ~*ST*~ --- Petition for a system notification when a contribution is removed: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=37308859 |

The thing with Axel is, what did he do to become popular. I don't
remember him doing anything in KH2. Though I don't really remember KH2.

Kairi didn't exactly do anything to be popular either yet she owned
Claire with this type of comeback and did respectable on Rikku. KH
anything after KH2 seems to be a force here. --- Demyx is better than Axel. I don't like Haley Scarnato |

if my math is right, Axel won the last hour by 239 votes. if he
maintains that for eight hours, he wins by 2-300 votes. now, he's
probably going to slow down (though he might actually speed up in an
hour or so), so I'd say it's debatable who wins this. I'd rather have Frog, though. --- http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/258/cloudvsjillvsocloectvsmfw4.jpg now playing: PW3, Jeanne d'Arc |

If this keeps going he may actually threaten to deplete Frog's lead to
like 200 or so. I don't think he'll have quite enough gas to actually
take the lead though but it should be close enough to be interesting
but yet not close enough so that you worry. --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

What would you say Axel needs to be safe, then? I'd certainly say if
he got a 150+ lead going into the final hour and a half, he'd be safe. To be certain? Much higher than 150. Around 200 would probably be enough, but to be absolutely certain, I'd say more like 400. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |
