Yo said it, but he didn't really mean it as a "who do you think woudl
win?" question so much as "c'mon, would you really vote these guys over
Guile?" statement. I think. Either way, I'd take Dan over Guile to enter the contest and in a direct match up. And I'd much rather see Cammy in than old mop-top. Guile just plain sucks. --- You do not have the right to never be offended. |

Well...Crono's just taking off now. He'll likely get as high at 51% before his drop. Hopefully, it won't be too big. --- "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* |

"guile only loses to bison because his shirt does cpr" And Raul Julia is about a million times cooler than van Damme, even without currently living. Bison, Cammy, and Guile were all appropriate cast in that movie, even if everyone else was not. Cammy (Minogue) I want, Bison (Julia) I fear/respect, Guile (van Damme) is a complete turd-fest. So appropriate. --- You do not have the right to never be offended. |

one to comment on it.when people arrive they only see him falling/and
or stalling,so they say "lol crono" |

I'm sorry, but why is this all that surprising? Square characters have
had a hard time in the first hour or so of, well, pretty much every
poll ever. And they pretty much all make a big recovery right
afterwards. I don't see anything special going on here. But, then
again, I don't understand why everyone started the match off
doomsaying. I guess we can't all take into consideration that the first hour/hour-and-a-half of a poll isn't everything. --- You do not have the right to never be offended. |

Hey that's not what I want to see :( Well... It looks like things are already different for Crono this year. Last year he hit his peak at 2 am in almost all his matches. That doesn't seem to be the case this time. But I wonder just what prompted him to have such a hyper first 2 hours last year --- This story is not an end yet.

"But I wonder just what prompted him to have such a hyper first 2 hours last year" 1st opponent: Nintendo character (Falcon) 2nd opponent: Nintendo character (Bowser) 3rd opponent: Square character (Auron) 4th opponent: Sega character (Sonic) In the first two, he had a massive disadvantage in the openning moments. When your opposition over performs in the first 15 and you recover, of course it's going to look like you jumped big time. The third was agaisnt another Square character and he lost % pretty much all day. Auron is a day character when compared to Crono. Against Sonic, he didn't start bleeding % until later on. All told, Crono has a tendancy of being disavantaged in the oppening moments while he is a (late) night vote-getter. Makes sense, really. --- You do not have the right to never be offended. |

For the hour 1 AM - 2 AM... Crono - 51.36% Sam - 16.45% Simon - 12.83% Raiden - 19.36% --- SC2k7: 41/56, tied for 784th Today's Pick: Crono > Sam Fisher |

If he's at a massive disadvantage in the opening hours then it makes
his first 2 hours look all the more hyper since even with that
disadvantage, he reaches a high peak that outclasses even the rest of
his night vote. And yes, Crono peaked against Sonic at 2 AM as well. Although he didn't actually do worse after that, he did as well for about an hour and then starting falling even during the night vote. His voting patterns were extremely front loaded that year considering he performed better in the opening couple of hours than he did in the actual night vote, which is kind of unusual. --- This story is not an end yet.

I wish that Simon had a KH like dayvote so he could take the second
spot... But seeing Raiden in round 2 is also cool and good for my
bracket, hopefully Sam won't be up to something... --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. Proud supporter of Knuckles and Magus in Character Battle VI |

He's not at a disadvantage in the openning hours. That's when his
advantage is biggest. He's at a disadvantage in the first few minutes and recovering from that can take time, which is why he often looks like he climbs noticably in the first two hours. And there is really nothing here to indicate he isn't goign to remain front-loaded. The voting trends are altered a bit by the nature of the poll, but chances are in an hour or two he's going to start slipping again. --- You do not have the right to never be offended. |

Yeah, Raiden is quite disappointing so far but we can't put all the blame entirely on him. 1. Raiden got a unrecognisable picture that won't do him any good in this contest. I think a handful of the people here didn't even watch that MGS4 trailer featuring Raiden. (Same scenario as ZSS) 2. Raiden has a noticeable fanbase with Sam Fisher. After all, their game are of the same Genre and Generation. 3 MGS characters did well, 1 subpar, 2 more to go. --- Proud Supporter of Solid Snake, Dante and Ryu.

Two cuts in a row by Sam. I can't believe this.. this should be
Raiden's best time against Sam should it not? Hell even I thought this
pick was a ridiculous longshot. --- SC2k7: 41/56, tied for 784th Today's Pick: Crono > Sam Fisher |

It's hard to say about Sam. He gained on DK all day long, like everyone
else does. He got completely curb-stomped by Samus. And against GF, he
lost the day vote badly. I'm going to say it doesn't look too good for him. Which is good for me, since he's by far the worst character in the poll. --- You do not have the right to never be offended. |

He's at a disadvantage in the first few minutes and recovering from
that can take time, which is why he often looks like he climbs
noticably in the first two hours. That can affect the % climb, but I'm not really going by that so it's irrelevant. Even throwing out the first 30 minutes completely, Crono was front-loaded for every match but Captain Falcon. in which he was a bit more... normal. It's a bit different against Bowser, but that's because it was on the weekend. The morning vote comes an hour or 2 later on weekends. Accounting for that, he still had the trend of dropping off in the middle of nowhere right when the night vote was still in full swing --- This story is not an end yet.

I think Fisher's got this match. Raiden isn't doing anything and if the
other MGS characters are any indication, he's going to disappear when
the day hits. --- Currently Playing: Persona 3 |

How did Fisher do with the day vote against Samus? I know Samus is a
bit of an anomaly in the Nintendo world because she doesn't really have
a good day vote so maybe that might give us some insight into Fisher's
day vote. --- Currently Playing: Persona 3 |

ah, yeah, you're right. those huge 2k4 pages make it look different than it really is. looks like they essentially went even. Belmont's going just about even with Fisher here all of a sudden. what a weird match. --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

n00b - CT has always shown itself to be strong in the night. While
Crono MAY do something different here, this being a 4-way poll could
easily be the reason for any change. If he keeps gaining when morning
comes then we have something to talk about. Darunia - Sorry, I'm doing homework and tossing back a couple beers here. My mind isn't particularly focused, so I didn't look at the numbers too closely. Hell, it took me a minute to find his match against Samus just because I was expecting her name to be on the left on the poll updates page... --- You do not have the right to never be offended. |

really need them though because the day vote will not be kind. --- Currently Playing: Persona 3 |

I know CT is strong in the night. That's why it's weird that Crono was
dropping off in the middle of the night. Did you somehow miss that?
>_> Also looks like Crono's % has been essentially unchanged for the past 40 minutes. I think he peaked between 2:00 and 3:00 again.... heh --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |
