Hmm... kinda forgot about the series contest. That
could be it, I know for a fact it wasn't the female bracket, but now I
can't remember if it was characters or series. I'll take your guys word
for it though. --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH POSTS MENTIONING THAT FROG IS ON THE COMEBACK TRAIL! Aww yeah Anything that adds to the insanity is fine with me. I'd love to see a 4 hour slug fest than Axel keeping his ownage up. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? SC2k6 (190/240) 99.4958 Percentile |

Because of that one post earlier, I can't get the thought of Axeltrain and Frog having an epic showdown out of my head --- Temp sig until I lose the Guru. Then I'll actually make a meaningful one. |

My feedback ticket that Ceej responded to about the poll time
changing was in June of 2006. Summer 2005's matches started at 3 AM. Like I said, my first contest on the board was 2k5 and I remember matches starting late, then in 2k6 I remember the poll time switching and Zachnorn having a hissy fit due to it.

I would like to thank my employer for blocking practically every site under the sun except gamefaqs.com. I would also like to thank Frog for pissing away what I am going to guess was around a 2k vote lead. In a four-way contest. Yikes. What a tool. 3 hours and 45 minutes to make up 50 votes! <cues Frog theme music> --- 128 character battle royale? My head hurts. RIP: Tnote827 - 4/4/05 |

This is DEFINITELY rallying/cheating. Aside from the fact that it always
is when two characters get tied, look at both of their percentages.
Even when they lose/gain on each other, their overall percentages BOTH
surge forward. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

13 vote gain for Axel. Frog needs to do better than that. :-) --- Chris Benoit - Showing you how roid rage brings out the monster in all of us. :-) Shall he burn in hell. |

Well Frog is finally bringing in 90-110 votes for 3 updates in a row now, instead of that pathetic 70-90 range. JUST WAIT TILL THE KIDDIES GO TO BED --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

From Karma Hunter | Posted 9/6/2007 1:17:35 AM | #321 This is DEFINITELY rallying/cheating. Aside from the fact that it always is when two characters get tied, look at both of their percentages. Even when they lose/gain on each other, their overall percentages BOTH surge forward. It makes sense that when a character is about to, or is losing their lead that people will rally for votes. And with several people rallying 20 extra votes is far from unreasonable. --- Ahem! There's LETTUCE on my boots! |

PortugalTheMann | Posted 9/5/2007 5:21:21 PM | message detail |
All former matches pointed to Frog putting up a fight again around
8:30-9:00 so he started 15 minutes early if this keeps up. I don't see
what the big deal is. --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

Thank you EC for being pretty much the only other voice of reason in this topic. Although I can see them dragging out this stalling until around 10:30 when Frog should start a meaningful comeback. Either way this match ends with less than a 200 vote difference, and we all know never to snub Frog again.

Don't be so quick to call shenanigans, even KERRIGAN'S percent had a boost on that one, Night vote foreshadowing? Hopefully... Frog does look like he might be starting to make his stand.
