How does this 4-pack go? Solid Snake (old man pic) vs. Liquid Snake vs. Solidus Snake vs. Big Boss (Naked Snake pic) I guess Solid has the name recognition, but I bet the pics would have many casuals somewhat confused, especially if Liquid looked anything like Solid and if Solidus looked anything like Old Snake. --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero.

And ??? on that update. Liquid is weak during the 2:00 hour, but strong during the 3:00 hour? Just had to wait until the clones woke from their cryogenic sleep, I guess. LOL random variation. --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. Character Battle V Contest Winner! |

Liquid was angry at his poor 2:00 performance so he goes and outdoes Alucard in the past 15 minutes --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

Ness is doing terribly now. And there's still 3 and a half hours of
night vote before his time. He's gotta hope for a hell of a day vote. --- Currently Playing: Wild Arms 3, Persona 3 |

Liquid is getting the Recessive Genes vote, which people who come on to vote at 3:00 AM clearly have. Alucard got the Vampire vote earlier, but bloodlust has taken them off to do some business. Or wait...did it turn out that Liquid was the dominant one all along? That part always confused me (yes, even relative to most things MGS, which I actually understand). --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero.

finally, a brawl for first. those second place rushes are exciting and
all, but the only reason we care about them is our brackets. this is a
real popularity match here. wonder how many of these we'll actually get --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

To be fair, Ness is only down 700. Even if this doubles before morning,
he could swing that much (especially against these two jokers) and take
first. Though if he keeps falling 100 votes behind every 20 minutes he might be in trouble. --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." - Joseph Stalin |

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. *goes to look at pick* Good lord Matt looks like crap. Time to change my Oracle prediction... --- R.I.P. Robert Jordan, 1948-2007 |

All that Liquid and Alucard need to do now is continue to increase
their lead over Ness. Something over 1000 obviously, then fend off the
morning. --- "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* |

Looks like the most night-vote oriented character here is actually Zidane X_X Or he just got a really lousy first couple of hours --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

Nice...Liquid's lead over Ness is growing well now...he can easily make
it 300 or so per hour. That's at least a 1500 vote lead if he maintains
it. --- "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* |

at this pace, I like Alucard > Ness.. Liquid needs to go faster. I
think a 2000 vote swing might be conservative here. Alucard looks well
on his way to achieving that, but I'm not sure about Liquid. --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

Ness' updates this hour are terrible. I agree that I'm thinking it's going to be Alucard > Ness once the day hits. --- Finally a damn bracket! http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

Ness's plushy midsection makes him headbutt-resistant. I don't know if Liquid quite needs 2000 votes over Ness. Is Ness really a casual favorite in SSBM? He's my #2 after Marth, but that's only because I'm an Earthbound fanboy. He seems somewhat difficult to master. --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. Character Battle V Contest Winner! |

Ness ended up my #2 somehow after a while. It was Yoshi and Luigi
before. I don't really know how that happened. He was just fun to use. --- Finally a damn bracket! http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

it's not Ness as much as it's Liquid and Alucard. let's see here.. Liquid fell about 4% against Sephiroth. he went even with Frog. lost to Lavos. Alucard went from 50-50 with Sora to 55-45. he fell apart in the day vs. Auron. lost 5% to Kratos. Ness is Nintendo. --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

In light of lack of topic matter, I offer this insight: This match features one character whose name is the inverse of another, one character whose name is modeled after another but with a different prefix, one character whose name is an anagram of his console, and one character whose namesake is a soccer player. --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero.

the thing is i wonder if we can rely on older matches where polls started later for trends. --- Rufus shinra destroyed my bracket in the sc2k6 contest. |

Actually, it looks like Ness gained 3% on CJ with the morning vote and the stayed even through the rest of the day. --- Currently Playing: Wild Arms 3, Persona 3 |

Yeah... it's a weekend. Even if Ness has a good day vote, during the
weekend it's only really in effect until a little past noon. It's
possible that after that time period passes the match will go back to
trends more similar to the night. Maybe not as lop-sided as it is in
the night, come 2 or 3 PM, we could have a 3 way tie again --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

assume CJ = TV.. he lost about 1% to Zero during the day. I guess that's an average day vote. Ganon took 4% from Alucard, too. ahh, gotta love our weird pseudoscience of trying to gauge trends. --- xyzzy http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

Liquid fell about 4% against Sephiroth. he went even with Frog. lost to Lavos. Alucard went from 50-50 with Sora to 55-45. he fell apart in the day vs. Auron. lost 5% to Kratos. Heh, Alucard actually looks to be better with the day vote. At the very least, Alucard went up against people who are very good with it. Liquid has no excuse losing the day vote to Lavos. --- Currently Playing: Wild Arms 3, Persona 3 |

yeah, I've believed that to be true.. but then, Ocelot topped Jill (not
a feat, but hey, it's SOMETHING), and Raiden barely moved all day. this

But Ocelot hasn't shown signs of having that bad a day vote. He lost it to Pac-Man, yeah, but Pac-Man seems like the kind of character who'd be good with it. --- Currently Playing: Wild Arms 3, Persona 3 |

I'm feeling pretty good about having Alucard > Ness now. Ness'll
inevitably storm back in a couple of hours, so he'll probably take down
Liquid, but I'm not too sure he takes down Alucard. It'll probably be
close but no cigar. --- Currently Playing: Wild Arms 3, Persona 3 |

I don't mind Alucard taking 1st here, but Liquid needs to not drop to
3rd. SAVE MY BRACKET. Wait what am I talking about...it's not even
dead. Help me get on the leaderboard, come on. --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC |
