Also, we're looking good to get some very high vote totals today. It's about 5,000 behind Knux/Rikku/Vaan/Yoshi right now. Cloud is a beast of a vote draw.

No, Sonic beat Crono because Crono dropped to the Mega Man/Sonic level.

Still, if Crono is on Sonic's level, Sonic needs an extra boost from somewhere to beat Crono by more than 1.5%.

So, how many perfects are left? The two in the Guru are gone, and Jill was probably favoured by the rest as well.

I'm thinking two. Three at the maximum.

Just leave your bracket open, and switch accounts in another tab. It makes it a lot quicker.

I've been thinking about the CATS match more and more and looking at Cloud, Sephiroth should probably score something similar or close. makes me lose faith in CATS but eh, it was an upset worth considering.

Today: Cloud > Ocelot - Vote: Ocelot
Tomorrow: Auron > Shadow - Vote: Shadow - Points: 16/20.
Mac Arrowny | Posted 9/8/2007 9:44:08 AM | message detail
So...how come nobody mentioned Subsistence as a reason for Ocelot and Big Boss to boost before the bracket came out?

>_<

Rapid analysis, accurate judgment, and superb powers of concentration. That is all we need.
Darklurkr | Posted 9/8/2007 9:45:29 AM | message detail
The reason Marcus won is because everybody assumed that Kefka would be winning regardless so no one looked at the stats be4 voting. lolz!

That was a big curveball to everyone. I gota see how many people ar estill perfect. Maybe misses will even win this year!

THEVinceYoung | Posted 9/8/2007 9:51:05 AM | message detail
Honestly, I kinda expect Sephiroth to do better than Cloud. His fourpack is weaker. Jill and Ocelot are both midcarders. Peach is the only midcarder in Sephy's fourpack, and she'll be SFFing Meta-Knight down really low, too. I expect him to get 60%+ with ease there.

how are CATS' voting patterns? good night vote? decent day vote?

Today: Cloud > Ocelot - Vote: Ocelot
Tomorrow: Auron > Shadow - Vote: Shadow - Points: 16/20.
THEVinceYoung | Posted 9/8/2007 9:52:57 AM | message detail
CATS will dominate the board vote, do well (relatively) in the night, and hold on for dear life during the day.

MarioSuperstar | Posted 9/8/2007 9:53:14 AM | message detail
Oh yeah, and there's that "Nobody likes Peach" thing to consider, too!

I still support that theory, too. I just can't look at that Mario poll and then look at this poll and have Peach even get 20% of the vote. that right there automatically gives CATS a decent shot.

but hey, if Peach actually has hardcore fans, good. I still doubt it, though.

Today: Cloud > Ocelot - Vote: Ocelot
Tomorrow: Auron > Shadow - Vote: Shadow - Points: 16/20.
YoAriel33 | Posted 9/8/2007 9:55:04 AM | message detail
There are many things that scare me about my CATS pick, not the last of which being a Peach rally late into the vote if CATS does somehow have the lead.

Jill/Ocelot are low carder and Zolom is nothing more than just a super fodder.

Cloud doing this good is pretty all right. but these mid-carders aren't exactly day vote material.

About the whole CATS thing, Peach doesn't need a hardcore fanbase. She and Meta Knight are already guarenteed about 20% of the vote. The only problem is, if Meta Knight causes enough of a split, that might put her under CATS' guarenteed 10-13%
