Heh, I like how you say that right after Ness gains 20 votes. Yeah, yeah...forgot to check the update first. *mutters* The point still stands, though. Mostly. |

Ness is definitely starting his drop off now while Alucard pulls away.
250 votes separate 1st and 3rd now with Liquid right in the middle. --- Finally a damn bracket! http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

Ness's day vote should be pretty epic here, given that he's going to be taking it from three characters who suck with the day. --- Rapid analysis, accurate judgment, and superb powers of concentration. That is all we need. |
The n00b Avenger | Posted 9/21/2007 10:47:51 PM | message detail |
Yeah well we have to wait and see just how epic it has to be considering the night vote hasn't really started yet --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

Ness's day vote could be epic and it might not matter if he's down a good 2000 votes I have no idea what's going to happen here, but it's looking likely that he'll have a serious deficit to make up come sunrise --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

Ness has about 5 hours until morning hits, so if he stems the bleeding
until then, he'll be fine against Liquid. Don't know if he could take
down The Plan. --- Currently Playing: Wild Arms 3, Persona 3 |

Alucard and Liquid have both gone up .3% this hour while Ness has
dropped .6%. Zidane's just kinda chillin' there. this is only going to
get more pronounced as the night goes, too. this is like the 3-4pm hour
for the night vote - it's just beginning. --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |
Keno316 | Posted 9/21/2007 11:03:20 PM | message detail |
Alucard and Liquid are likely to share trends, so I imagine these two
will continue to trade blows like this. Hopefully Alucard hanging on.
Hopefully, they'll both build up a big enough lead to fend off Ness as
well. --- "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* |

9 people fell off the Top 50 today. Azp2k32, TheRunner_PD,
CountCrazy007, PantheraPardus, xStlouisHolt81x, chocoboslayer,
transience, SirBinro and Nemo_Incognito did not have Master Chief over
Yuna as the winners yesterday. 15 people only get the match half right but manage to stay on the Top 50. hochiminh155, frozenflame264, The_Lady_Ashe, bokoboko42, IAmAnAlt, BeautyQueenEtna, HunterKiller47, QwazyMofo, jumpers123, smitelf, HopefulDeath, Esperwolf, Kilgamayan, Cid_ and Leonhart44 also did not have Master Chief over Yuna as the winners yesterday but the 2 points keep them on the Top 50. 40 - Board8_BOP - 64 For the first time ever, a bracket made on the consenus picks from the Board Odds Project has made the Top 50! Currently it's tied for 16th! For those who complain that the board mislead them to take bad picks and claim they will never listen to the board again... well if you had listened to the board, you'd be on the Top 50 right now. --- "Those whose memories fade seek to carve them in their hearts..."

Keep in mind that vote leads mean a little less today than in most of the previous close matches this contest. These guys are pulling in ~27% of the vote, while Frog/Axel were only getting ~18% for instance. Meaning it would be easier to come back from further down, if the day/night disparity were the same as that match. |

Whoa, I left for about an hour and when I did
Liquid was in first with Alucard in second, much to my dismay. Can
Alucard hold his lead...and can Ness overtake Liquid for second? This is exciting. --- Current Score: 60/76 - The Great GameFAQs Character Battle VI NP: Alucard > Ness |

The BoP had Cloud > Link, that didn't help...Tidus/Shadow, Ness/Jak,
and Vivi/DK might have kept the BoP out of the leaderboard in the early
going. --- Mustache...and green... www.rit.edu/~zmb0386/Brawl.jpg |

Didn't the BOP bracket to extremely well in 2004? Yep. Tied for 45th at the end. However, it never actually appeared on the Top 50. --- "Those whose memories fade seek to carve them in their hearts..." "All dreams are but another reality. Never forget..." |

what differences do we have between the BOP and the Guru? 3 differences. Round 1: BOP: Link > Bidoof Guru: Link > Miles Edgeworth BOP: Luigi > Mudkip Guru: Luigi > Pit Round 2: BOP: Mega Man > Knuckles Guru: Mega Man > Yoshi In terms of number of correct picks, the BOP has already won. However, if Yoshi comes through as expected, both brackets tie in terms of points. --- "Those whose memories fade seek to carve them in their hearts..." "All dreams are but another reality.

I wake up from a sickness-induced nap to see the current standings reflecting my bracket perfectly. I am now 80% confident in Alucard. Liquid vs. Ness still concerns me, though. I wish it was a weekday, so Liquid had more time to build a lead, but the weekend doesn't necessarily mean more day vote, it just means a more spread out day vote, correct? I almost hate to root against Ness, though. I love him like a fat kid loves cake. --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. Character Battle V Contest Winner! |
transience | Posted 9/22/2007 12:02:00 AM | message detail |
traditionally, the "day vote" on the weekend comes in the morning and
the rest of the day is a lot more balanced. look at Shadow's match for
proof of that. we really don't know what's going to happen here though.
all we know is that Ness will do the best in the day. we don't know by
how much. --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

JaKyL25 | Posted 9/22/2007 12:05:41 AM | message detail |
One dilemma I've already had with this match is who to bracket-vote for! I chose Liquid. I guess I really am more concerned with Ness passing him than him passing Alucard at this point. I'm almost giving 2 points back to everyone tomorrow with Dante > Matt, so I can't afford to lose more today! --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. Character Battle V Contest Winner! |
transience | Posted 9/22/2007 12:07:20 AM | message detail |
I know it's easy to say now, but I really don't understand how Matt was
the Guru favourite. (and apparently the BOP fave, too) that just makes
no sense to me. --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

Ness falls from his power hour. Although maybe not quite as expected is Liquid's sudden drop off. WTF r u doin --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |
JaKyL25 | Posted 9/22/2007 12:09:44 AM | message detail |
Well, considering Amaterasu as definitely weaker than Little Mac
regardless of how Mac finishes, many people (such as myself) thought
that Matt would definitely be stronger, especially if he was classified
as Matt the Mii or Matt (Wii Sports), and if he clearly looked like a
Mii. He got no such pic advantage/classification. Plus Little Mac got his absolute best in-game pic, one that I completely forgot existed. --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. Character Battle V Contest Winner! |

I still think Frank West wins pic of the round so far for me. I've
never even heard of the guy before this contest and I want him to get
second just because of that pic. --- Currently Playing: Wild Arms 3, Persona 3 |
transience | Posted 9/22/2007 12:12:26 AM | message detail |
even so, a Mii beating out legitimate characters when there's a lot of
percentage to go around? (I'm not buying Dante at 60+%, by the way --
these guys aren't that weak.) you can call him Matt the Mii, give him a
perfect picture and put a wii remote in the picture and I still would
pick Little Mac. --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |
