Pyramid was in a movie since we last saw him? Why did nobody tell me?? I probably would've edged up my Oracle for him by couple points, though still wouldn't have expected this. Even if this is just a monster night vote he's still got a good shot at finishing 15% or better, which I really wouldn't have expected. And how the hell did Shadow get the board vote? He's also doing significantly worse than I thought. Day vote should help him though, especially against Chris and PH. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

| 93% is pretty damn good, although Cloud was first in the order. Let's see how many get Sephiroth in the right place, or Link if Miles isn't second. |

| I think the prediction percent for yesterday is
proof that the casuals didn't read the rules. Cloud only got so much
because he was listed first. TuRtLe ~~~ "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

Funny, PH doing better here than when he was against Bowser alone. The Silent Hill fanbase is dedicated! Quick, would James Sunderland advance in Luigi or Link's 4-packs? --- Pokemon FC: 0129 8285 9148 Jump Ultimate Stars FC: 1504 2045 7334 |

There were absolutely no doubts about Cloud taking first place. A huge improvement over fellow Noble Niners Mega Man and Samus Cloud was in the upper half of his pack, rather than the lower half, which accounts for that. People that misunderstood the bracket would've still been able to get him right. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I really hope that Shadow takes off with the day vote, and can grab
away a good chunk of Chris' and PH's percentage. It's all but
guarenteed that those 2 are going down when the some comes up. TuRtLe ~~~ "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

He doesn't play a very big role, but he looks awesome and is
unquestionably the movie's resident badass. He also has one of the
sickest scenes ever: SILENT HILL MOVIE (SMALL) SPOILERS Everyone is running the **** away from Pyramid Head, looking for sanctuary in the town church. A teenage girl lags behind and doesn't reach the door. As everyone watches through the church doors, PH grabs her, strips off her clothes, and with one swift motion, rips off her skin and throws it against the door. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

I am truly surprised at how well Pyramid Head is doing. Perhaps PH was hurt badly by its head picture back in Sp2K5. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |

I think there's some hope. It's not silly to think PH would bungle the
day vote worse than Chris. But man, this is just sad. I kinda wish
Chris would have been saved for after RE5, but at least he's telling us
all exactly how big a boost he needs to be competitive. -__- --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

I wonder how popular Leon was pre-Resident Evil 4. Resident Evil 2 was
most likely the most popular of the previous games, but Chris also has
one extra game on his side and another (RE1) that's probably not *that*
far away from RE2 in popularity. --- Twisted Misters: 2007 World Series of Pop Culture Champions!!! |

Auron faced two day vote chumps (Alucard and Crono) last year, so let's look at his match with Subby: Time | Auron | Sub-Zero 01:00 | 58.70% | 41.30% 02:00 | 58.70% | 41.30% 03:00 | 60.84% | 39.16% 04:00 | 60.91% | 39.09% 05:00 | 60.83% | 39.17% 06:00 | 62.91% | 37.09% 07:00 | 64.00% | 36.00% 08:00 | 63.04% | 36.96% 09:00 | 62.03% | 37.97% 10:00 | 60.70% | 39.30% 11:00 | 59.62% | 40.38% 12:00 | 59.88% | 40.12% 13:00 | 58.77% | 41.23% 14:00 | 58.50% | 41.50% 15:00 | 58.66% | 41.34% 16:00 | 59.92% | 40.08% 17:00 | 59.16% | 40.84% 18:00 | 59.50% | 40.50% 19:00 | 58.14% | 41.86% 20:00 | 58.03% | 41.97% 21:00 | 57.83% | 42.17% 22:00 | 60.25% | 39.75% 23:00 | 59.36% | 40.64% 00:00 | 58.15% | 41.85% Not spectacular - only a decent night, but a very strong morning and a somewhat weak day.

The picture? The movie? I'm scratching my head here, and this (should
this result stay somewhat consistent) is further complicated by the
fact that Silent Hill is ridiculously weak on GameFAQs. Maybe Pyramid
Head is seen as some kind of iconic horror game figure, ala Jason?
Hell, I wouldn't even dismiss the notion of PH benefiting from joke
votes. He is a guy with a triangle on his head, after all. >_> Can you imagine the utter insanity that would ensue if he got thrown in with Cloud or Snake? --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

| If's this is SH dedication, it's 100% loyal and
the fanbase probably grew here since spring 2k5. I'm a touch skeptical
there..... Shadow'll improve with the day-vote; Chris and PH are gonna sink big, Auron's mainly FF (though KH2 likely helped a lot) so I don't think he'd be past decent, and Shadow'll feature a solid day-vote. This format makes things hard to say for sure, but Shadow should benefit the most from the day-vote. We'll just have to wait and see how much. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board.

As for the trends from here on out... It might be something like this:
Shadow to take the day vote, PH and Chris to lose it, and Auron to
remain about the same. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
