I guess this match is as good as over. Still, damn nice Fox performance so far. --- Pokemon Pearl Code: 2663-9266-2709 WWEGSB Hardcore Legend and Board 8er Masa/Hiko |

Thing is, swinging 3000 votes isn't as easy when you're trailing
already as opposed to slightly ahead. Needs a bigger %age shift.
Whereas Peach was losing to start and stalling during the night, Wario
was stalling to start and winning during the night. I'm liking Wario's
chances here. --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

Base Fox off of Captain Falcon right now, and Fox is at 30.96% on BL if
the percentages imply a direct match-up score (even higher than that
using King Morgoth's formula)... the best explanation is that Fox has a
major SFF advantage here. --- "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." |

This match is over. So who comes out of Sephiroth/Meta Knight/Fox/Wario? I got Sephiroth > Meta Knight so I'm hoping this is just everyone else sucking way worse than Fox. >,> --- DC |

| I think Serphy > fox is more likely. Even if you account SFF into this match, Fox still did extremely well in this matchup. He is looking like a Noble Nine member with that kind of performance against those fodder / low-midcarder |

There it is. Wario with a 1000+ lead over Falcon. --- DC |
| Haste_2 | Posted 9/12/2007 2:56:57 AM | message detail |
| It is looking quite unlikely at this point that
Captain Falcon can catch up. Vote swings aren't the way to make
comparisons so much as percentage swings. Wario is ahead by nearly 4%
here. Meta Knight gained 2.5% on Peach from his closest margin with
Peach. --- "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 need Banjo and Wario to keep increasing in percent and Fox and Falcon
to keep dropping. That's not from character preference but to salvage
at least something from my oracle predictions today >_> --- Character Battle: 30/36 Oracle: 27th Team Oracle: 18th (Partner: BZer0) |

Hmmmm, only 28 points and still in the top 600 or so. Not too bad,
seeing that Jill is my only knock against me for next round. Kinda
worried about Bowser/Ryu come next round. I'm hoping that Ryu just
benefited from being "not-Nintendo" in that poll instead of that 36%
truly being a steadfast Ryu fanbase. If that's the case, then Auron
ought to take a big chunk out of Ryu. If not, well, then my bracket
gets ripped up. --- Proud Supporter of Zero |

Looking at my pre-expectations, Banjo, Captain Falcon, and Wario are
all doing about as I expected... proportionally-speaking. It's all
about Fox McCloud today. --- "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'm still surprised CF has a leg to stand on in this match. I guess
it's a good thing it was a all-Nintendo match so he was known to a
higher percentage of the voters, ha. What's the vote-total looking like for today? --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

Looking at my oracle spreadsheet as it stands you guys are scoring: Moltar 46.73 Haste2 44.99 The day on the whole hasn't seen any fantastic predicitions though. Moltar's predicition pens him in at 5th for the day with the highest being a 47.53 prediction that is falling as Falcon's percentage falls. Only 14 people have 46+ predicitions at the minute but there are a fair few people who have totals rising with current percentage change trends. --- Character Battle: 30/36 Oracle: 27th Team Oracle: 18th (Partner: BZer0) |

Banjo looks to have a good day vote, huh? and Fox looks to have a bad one? looks like Wario > Banjo > Fox > Falcon in the daytime. Of course, don't forget that it's all relative, seeing how they all pretty much draw from the Nintendo fanbase. I wouldn't take that to mean that Fox has a bad day vote. He actually probably has a pretty good one compared to most other characters in this contest. --- Proud Supporter of Zero |

Fox, easily. I'm very impressed with how well he's doing, and at the same time, how well Captain Falcon is holding up. And I'm wondering why people wanted Banjo in the contest in the first place. I know I was saying I expected him to beat Falcon yesterday, but still...this is bad. He was only going to be Conker level at the very best, and it seems he's well below that. Either that, or my Zero > Jak pick isn't looking so good. I'll believe it's the former right now. ...By the way, how did I have Sephiroth > CATS yesterday and only drop FOUR spots? --- "I'm no hero...Never was.
