Why did anyone pick Simon again? He wasn't very strong in 2003 and Castlevania characters have done nothing but drop since then.

With Chrono Trigger, Metal Gear and Castlevania all in the same poll who is going to lose the day vote the most? Better yet how much will Sam Fisher gain during the day?

Sam will rise to heaven during the day, which roughly equals a 300% gain.

Given the people involved, I wouldn't be at all surprised if there were 0 votes total from 7AM all the way until 8PM. <_<

So what will the board vote look like? Raiden owning, then Crono, Simon, Sam?

Raiden and Simon each with 30-35%, Sam with... 10, and Crono with the rest.

Raiden probably gets the board vote and Crono takes the Power Hour, but that's not set in stone. The only thing we can be absolutely certain of is that Fisher sucks in the first hour.

I expect to see Crono pushing 50% pretty early on, though.

Crono OUGHT to be able to breat 50% tomorrow, though Frog/Magus this year and even Crono/Marle last year put it into some question. I'd also take Diablo and KOS-MOS to beat Sam and Simon nicely as well as compete well with Raiden...and Arthas would probably do something similar, give or take. Mega Man barely broke 50%, so...I dunno, it doesn't look so hot for Crono to break 50% tomorrow. It depends on how powerful Raiden is and how well Crono can represent CT in this format.

With the way Crono's been falling after the first 2 or 3 hours in a match I hope he's pushing 55% after the first hour just so he can finish above 40 >_<

falling that much is impossible...

Crono fell 4% against Sonic in the whole day.that's sonic...the dude with a godly day vote

Yeah, Crono should be able to get 50% tomorrow. Megaman did, and his competition was arguably stronger. As for his day vote, he lost 4% to Falcon, 4.5% to Bowser, 6% to Auron, and 5.5% to Sonic last year from his peak, which happened around 2-3 AM.

Hmmm... at least 26 votes were cast for Peach/CATS/MK before Sephiroth got a single vote. How long until Fisher gets at least one? <_<

When you're that high you tend to be able to fall more steeply. Bowser has a meh day vote and he brought Crono down from 62% to 57%

Psh at least Ocelet and Big Boss look cool, this is too much Raiden love. Bring on an underperformance!!! But seriously he better get second.

Well, Magus had several hundred before one vote was displayed for Sam, thanks to a poll glitch.

So if Crono loses on average 5% to one character, then he's looking to lose 15% with 3 characters tomorrow.

And it's hilarious to think of how high the expectations were for Magus before SC2K3- 66% on Fisher was considered disappointing, and barely beating Ganondorf was also considered disappointing, as Magus was supposed to be stronger than Crono and give Link a challenge.

I like how Fisher is such an Xbox character when all his games are on every system. Shows what a short but critical time of "exclusivity" will do to ya.

...that and the other platforms' ports are pretty much crap (but KH they're all crap lolololo)

Haste_2 | Posted 9/16/2007 9:00:28 PM | message detail
I know Mega Man get 50% seems like a good argument for Crono getting 50%... but MM's score seems TOO good compared to the rest of the NN so far (save maybe Cloud)... I mean, Samus did only a percent better against competition that should've been about the same.
