Same, but still a nice performance by Boss. Shows that she might've been SFFd by Tifa.

she only got 60% on Celes. I think she's right where she needs to be..

and would she really be that much higher than Big Boss? or that much closer to Ocelot?

LOL!

Those two points don't support each other in saying Zelda will have a vote shift.

I never said that Zelda will have a vote shift. I was pointing out why thinking that Zelda should be getting a ton of votes right now due to a day vote is incorrect.

Samurai7 | Posted 9/16/2007 9:29:46 AM | message detail
And you're wrong. Because the day vote comes earlier since it IS a weekend. So it should be starting that trend all ready.

If it were a weekday you might have a point. Thus your two points don't help each other.

Doesn't the fact that Tails is gaining on The Boss pretty much mean we're already in the day vote? >_>

Because only you are in the infinity loop.
AerisDS | Posted 9/16/2007 9:33:32 AM | message detail
eh, maybe. Quite a few people probably aren't even awake yet, though.

In other news, The Boss finally won an update from Tails.

Zelda's day vote isn't even that great. she just has a pretty good morning vote.

Vincent is just taking the day vote away from her.

YoAriel33 | Posted 9/16/2007 9:42:47 AM | message detail
Eh, I don't really regret following my fanboyish heart; I knew Vincent was the clear favorite. Regardless, two points here could turn into big money if Vincent beats Crono. He's certainly looking the part.

Mac Arrowny | Posted 9/16/2007 10:18:03 AM | message detail
So how many others had both Zelda > Vincent and Vincent > Crono?

And how many people (other than hochiminh) actually think that Vincent would beat Zelda this badly (currently 60-40) in a one-on-one?
---
Rapid analysis, accurate judgment, and superb powers of concentration. That is all we need.
hochiminh155 | Posted 9/16/2007 10:19:26 AM | message detail
It wouldn't be 60-40 but 55-45 looks about right

Well using Yuna Ganondorf would beat Zelda 55/45 and Vincent would beat Zelda 57/43. If Vincent and Zelda were the only two characters in this poll right now Zelda would be getting 44.81%.

Vincent > Crono is looking pretty likely

It's a shame Zero will be beating both their sorry asses out

aww yeah

With Zelda and Vincent taking away most of the day vote, Tails can't really do much.

That.... isn't how these things work. Even if Zelda and Vincent increase, so does Tails, all at the expense of Boss

... No theoretically that could have quite a large affect on it BT. If Vince and Zelda both have a strong pull on the day vote crowd, tails will get proportionally less of a shift. They will still take way more from big boss then they do from tails, however it will be in lesser proportion than if it were 1v1 match

Yeah... at this point I really wish I had Liquid in my bracket. I'll still hope for the best, but I don't see how Liquid doesn't place anymore.

Strange how the people who don't have Liquid feel much more confident than the guy who actually DOES have him (that's me, in case you're wondering). Ness always scares me. He's such a wild card.

I hate that little snot.

If Vincent and Zelda were the only two characters in this poll right now Zelda would be getting 44.81%.

Vincent = Samus confirmed.

Also, compared to his other Sonic brethren, Tails doesn't have a great day vote. He went even with Viewtiful Joe. He did most of his percentage gaining overnight, actually. He didn't even gain a full percent on Dante.

Radix | Posted 9/16/2007 10:52:02 AM | message detail
Uh, what?

I'm sure I had good reasoning at the time! Something along the lines of "hardcore Chrono fanbases" and "Tidus/Vivi SFF each other out of the way" and "crazy upset machine"

Zero > Crono is a lot more likely than Zero > Vincent. How can you even argue Zero > Vincent?

The general argument is that Zero would squeeze through after Crono and Vincent split votes. Of course, this would require Link to leave Zero relatively untouched, and knowing how Link rolls, the chances for that are exceedingly slim.

He can't be part of the Terrific Ten because he wasn't in the earlier battles. Which happens to be a stupid reason, but what can you do? o.O

Guys, you may not have seen it a few topics ago.... but:

If Zero doesn't beat Vincent/Crono, Black Turtle will stop posting for a long time

If that isn't reason enough to pick RAIDEN, then I don't know what is!

And how many people (other than hochiminh) actually think that Vincent would beat Zelda this badly (currently 60-40) in a one-on-one?

Give me Vincent over Zelda with a good 55%+, probably around 57% or so. It wouldn't be close one-on-one, I don't think.

BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/16/2007 11:35:52 AM | message detail
First of all, the picture is clearly hurting her.

Not enough to win, but still.

Secondly, Boss resisting SFF here..... doesn't make sense. Maybe new-MGS characters are exempt from that?

Lastly, Tails must be affecting Zelda here, because no way do I take The Boss over Tails 1 on 1. Had it been say... Simon or HK-47 here instead of Tails, Zelda would probably be making this look respectable.

TP hasn't done a whole lot, but you're crazy if you think it did absolutely nothing. A 1% or 2% boost from it is pretty reasonable.

After all, do you really think that Midna beats Kratos and 47 without TP? :p
