Axel is just crusing past here. Usually when there's a lead switch there's some back-and-forth over the lead (usually because of cheating, I presume) but here... nothing.

I just wish frog could make it a close match, it looks like he's going to lose by 500 at this rate, even if it slows down, a whole 300+. X_x

This line reserved for next Guru winner. Unless it's me, therefore reserving plenty of noms for Dixie/DKC2.

I'm pretty sure 2K5 matches did start at 12:00 EST, I think that was the first year it was implemented. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, it definitely did. I know I was really excited that I was going to finally have a character battle where I didn't have to stay up until 3 AM for, and it most definitely did not include the female half.

Kairi really slowed down at about 8-830 EST. She still gained, but that's because Claire was uberfodder. If things don't go as I said they would, I'll eat my hat.

Well, that's six points gone unless Frog pulls a miracle out of his warty green ass. What a failure. Is this the biggest choke ever, blowing this big of a lead in a 4-way?

That... was her final mission. And like a true soldier, she saw it through the end.

20 votes gained for Axel that update.

Alas, I must now leave. I'll be back around 10:30-11:00 EDT, just in time for a conclusion that will either be extremely spectacular or extremely anticlimactic.

More irritating than the actual posts? Come on now :) If people can deal with those posts, you can deal with people bashing those posts ;)

Far more irritating. One is people having fun, the other is a party-pooping, scornful, elitist attitude.

Hey, Axel only gained a 10 vote lead on Frog this update! Froggy still has a chance!

My nick's Adamant. I have a "no 1" that looks stupid. Would've changed it if I could without losing karma. So it's Adamant, not Adamanto or Adamantno.
Janus5000 | Posted 9/5/2007 5:08:36 PM | message detail
Down 20... er, up 20. Of course this is a massive fluke and Frog will receive roughly 47 votes next update.

Wrong EC

My first contest here was 2k5 and I distinctly remember staying up until the crack of dawn to watch some of the matches.

2k6 was the first year at midnight EST and the first year Canadians could win the prizes

Usually during big comebacks, there's a big stall once a tie takes place. If Frog's best stall is only losing 20 votes, he's in deep ****.

Oh well, at least Samus > Midna should soften the blow of this match.

That's right, Midna damn well better be a beast now.

yeah, now that you mention it, 2005 did start at midnight. I remember it clearly because Mario/Crono went on when I was staying up at that time. I swear it was midnight.

Today: Samus > Frog - Vote: Frog.

Kairi really slowed down at about 8-830 EST. She still gained, but that's because Claire was uberfodder. If things don't go as I said they would, I'll eat my hat.

Both Kairi and Claire were above the fodder line if I recall correctly. Losing a close match to someone who got 42% on Rikku is nothing disgraceful or anything.

That does ring a bell actually...if so Frog might have a shot.

I think you're exaggerating...one can easily have just as much fun mocking update posts, methinks, as posting them ;) Not my thing, but this is the internet after all.

I don't know if anyone has said this, but it seems that the huge increase in votes is what did Frog in. If the number of votes were as the Battle Royale implied, I believe Frog would be the winner.

Well, looks like I got back just in time to see Frog blow his lead. It's not truly a Frog match if he doesn't have you biting your nails a lil' bit! He'd better comeback for my brackets sake (I prefer Axel)
