Actually, looking at the leaderboard, I'll probably still stay on even
if Phoenix beats out Bomberman. Crazy stuff. How long have I been there
anyway? --- "I'm no hero...Never was. I'm just an old killer...hired to do some wet work." |

I wonder, though, if Phoenix didn't tap into most of his rally support last night. You can't rally the same voters twice. There is a specific reason I refer to the phenomenon as "rallying". --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Those don't look right at all. Being lazy, I just pretended that it was exactly 4, and he still needed 6.8333~ per update. Which is pretty nice considering the fact that he is having trouble winning updates at all. <_< ~~~ Ashe. The Cream of Final Fantasy Fanboyism. Embok. |

Magus was the only one who increased their lead there, and even he
didn't do it by much. That last update may as well have not happened.

I would have taken Vincent > Zelda... last year. Since then, Zelda's
had TP, and we've got the dynamics of a four-way match going on. It may
have burned me once, but once again I can't deny the Zeldafear... --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

I'm honestly not concerned about Vincent beating Zelda. I don't see her
having the favorite power to overcome Vinny's favorite status there. --- "I'm no hero...Never was. I'm just an old killer...hired to do some wet work." |

Zelda was barely in TP as is. TP itself hasn't shown to be much of a
power bringer so far. (Then again, all we've seen so far is Midna) Even
still, any increase that could be there I'd see as purely minimal. --- "Opinions are like butts, little girl. Everyone's got one and nobody thinks their's stink." -Lunar 2:EB *Claims KG's Eclair, C.C. & Tear Grants* |

If Bomberman would pick up the pace just a TINY bit (like 5 more votes
per update or whatever), he'd be doing enough to take a lead. Whether
he'd have enough to beat Phonetix, I don't know. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

TP could have featured neither Zelda nor Ganondorf one iota and I'd
still take them to increase off of it. As for Midna, that's like
evaluating the power of OoT based on Navi (granted Midna is WAY out of
Navi's league, but the comparison holds). Plus, it's Zelda. That name means so much... I couldn't imagine her being anything but a run-of-the-mill midcarder without it, and with each new Zelda game... --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Argh! Another crazy Bomberman spike. Hopefully, it'll be preceding another one of Phoenix's massive stalls. --- He was stuck by lightning and became insane.don't mind him.-hiei on me. Sound advice. |

Honestly, it's the fact that Zelda relies so much on the name that I
expect Vincent to beat her. I can't see her being a HIGH favorite, but
she'll get a lot of votes because she's ZELDA. Plus, Vincent is a big
FFVII fan favorite as it is. I think she's got the same problem Bowser
does here. He's very strong on his own, but he doesn't seem to be a big
favorite overall. --- http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2088 Never forget. |

I don't think he's losing it. That's just the occasional gain that
Bomberman gets, like he's unleashing his frustration into one
concentrated update or something. Like I said, war of attrition. Don't
expect FenixvsKefkaesque cuts. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

Yeah, looking at the big picture for the most part Phoenix is stalling
like crazy. Those random surges hurt, but if he keeps his stalling pace
up they won't be fatal. --- The apples were too strong for him.- Abomstar |

This "rate"? It was one spike amidst a flurry of stalls. Wait for a few updates before calling a "trend." --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |
