Looks like Kefka's dropping in percentage and nothing definitive with
the rest of them, really. They've all gained a bit but not much. Fenix
actually was dropping also until that last update, so I'm not really
sure what to expect. If Fenix drops in percentage also, but by less
than Kefka, we could still have a match here. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |

After this match is looks like we have 4 straight-forward matches ahead of ourselves. For the first time of the contest! |

Nook's definitely rising, Zelos seems to be a bit as well. Seems like
Kefka's lead will remain about the same through the morning vote, at
least. Four straight-forward matches? Perhaps more straight-forward than most, but Jill/Ocelot, Bowser/Ryu and yes, even Peach/CATS are still up in the air. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |

Actually, if I'm going to mention CATS, I may as well say Auron and
Shadow could swap, and Mewtwo might place. This thing is way too
unpredictable to feel completely safe about anything. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |

Will the legendary XBox day-vote bring Marcus victory? I certainly think so. And what is happening to Zelos??? Almost half of what Kratos did against weaker competition. Jill>Revolver should not be in question, but given Jill's propensity for the nailbiter, I am sure she will not disappoint. This contest setting is absolutely awesome.

Still hovering around 800... But if we suppose Marcus does take a huge chunk of the day vote, I think he would need to pass Kefka and build a 500 vote lead to be safe. Kefka is no Frog but he could still rally back. --- Eff Dee |

| If this match bears any resemblance to Frog/Axel match, Kefka will most likely stall Marcus here until 11 EST time before Kefka starts building up leads again. After that, the afternoon kiddies vote will hit Kefka hard and we will see whether Kefka can survive against the onslaught of 10000 kids. |

Axel in this time was going up slowly in percentage and Frog was just
bleeding percentage. Fenix isn't going up at all and Kefka's losing it
much more slowly than Frog. Of course, Kefka's lead is much smaller
also, and combined these two are a much higher percentage of the vote
(thus a much smaller shift is needed). I'm not sure who to favor at
this point. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |

:) Lightning Strikes Posted 9/6/2007 2:41:03 PM People who pick Fenix really need to consider the following: X-BOX Shooter character. Unpopular console on GameFAQs. Random Hero Factor. NOT. AN. ICON. Master Chief is, hence he does decently. His game got less than Kratos is getting now by two thousand in the race for game of the year. His game is mainly only popular for the Multiplayer. He isn't recognizable at all within the game. Nor is his name. The Anti Voting of X-BOX dudes. Lightning Strikes Posted 9/6/2007 3:18:50 PM Random Hero factor is going to KILL Fenix. Book it.

If Kefka can keep increasing his lead until the school vote, he can
still win. Fenix hopefully shouldn't be anywhere near Axel level for
the day vote. ¬_¬ --- Ahem! There's LETTUCE on my boots! |

I guess since a weekday and kids are back in school, we'll have to wait
until about 3pm eastern before seeing the day vote shift set in. While
it isn't a sure thing fenix will start a huge rally when it occurs,
I'll be surprised if this match doesn't end up really close. I hope so anyways, since I have marcus going to round 3. >_> --- sig |

Hmmm...Kefka's stalling pretty effectively right now. Usually he starts
dropping the moment the sun rises. He's still probably going to get
killed once school lets out though. Poor Zelos. I definitely wasn't expecting him to do THIS poorly. I'd feel bad for those who picked Lloyd for second in his match, but...I tried to warn you. Man, I'd love to see Nook beating Lloyd right now. That'd be priceless. Instead, I'll settle for Jak and HK-47 doing it. And huzzah for me with three perfect brackets on the leaderboard! 'Tis a shame they all have Kefka > Fenix though. Apparently, the one or two Fenix > Kefka brackets have already fallen. --- What now, Merril Hoge? |

Lloyd could still get 2nd. Maybe I just don't have much faith in HK-47 or Jak, but that's how I see it. --- "Eet's game time..." |

Kratos' performance means more for Lloyd than that of Zelos... at least
he didn't disappoint as much. However, we do know that Scorpion killed
Kratos (and Midna, too, of course) more than he really should've, so
that doesn't bode too well for Lloyd, even in relation to his 17% on BL. For the record, HK-47 did 5% better than Agent 47 against Sora. Agent 47 was about 4% off Kratos. I know those were multiple years ago... who knows what's changed now... But, considering Kratos is significantly above Lloyd, that makes Lloyd look pretty bad. HK-47 was in KOTOR2, which I'm pretty sure was released after HK-47's last appearance. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?"

Depending on how well Kefka does for the next few hours will determine
the match. I think 1500 votes will be enough. Also take a look at the
upset in the guru contest if Marcus manages to win.
