"Good to see I was right in calling Ike a piece of trash. Shame I
didn't think Duke had it in him to win this. Oh well, even with 2
points, I'll still be beating out a good chunk of the guru brackets
ahead of me." I seem to remember you saying that Gordon > Duke was one of the picks you regretted. --- I lied |

| HM is going to kill me. Anyway, Duke is looking safer and safer. Even if Gordon somehow manages to stall out the next three hours, he'd still have a hard time cutting 700 votes. If Duke pushes it to 1000, goodnight. |

| At this point I'd say both leads are too big to
overcome. I mean, if Gordon does beat Nukem with the ASV it can't be by
that significant of an amount. By the time school lets out Nukem'll be
up by nearly 1000 votes if Gordon doesn't do something --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

Question: What is this "final boss of Resident Evil: Gaiden" meme all
about? Why is this supposed to be funny/how did it originate? As time goes by, I'm beginning to think that the Big Boss/Magus match next round is almost a toss-up. I don't think that should really be considered a big upset anymore if Magus loses. Also I wonder if Bidoof will outdo Zelda. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

It's too bad Ike let the during school vote violate him, I might've at
least held out some hope if he had kept it around 1000 or something.
And even though Gordon has half the deficit he doesn't seem to have
much more of a chance. But it does seem like Duke is setting himself up
for a fall with this during school domination. --- Should I start running now? |

I'm pretty sure the whole Resident Evil: Gaiden thing started up with
the Villains contest... I could be wrong though. People were tired of
everyone asking where x character was from and there being a million
topics already about it, with actual answers, so people just started
responding with "secret boss of resident evil gaiden" because no one
has actually ever played resident evil gaiden, and on the off chance
that they have, that's why he's a secret boss. --- Explicit Content Cheer Up Emo Kids. |

Bidoof > Zelda is all but guaranteed, I'd say. It'd be pretty

her from advancing. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |

after school vote and Duke ends up hurting so much he falls below
Gordon. --- Moltar Status: The Analysis Crew...believe Duke/Ike/Gordon/Guybrush - Bracket: Gordon > Duke - Vote: Duke (101/120) |

Chances out of 10 of those two happening: 1st Comeback (Gordon) Votes needed (5m): 8.43 4.5/10. Favours Duke, but I give Gordon a chance. 2nd Comeback (Ike) Votes needed (5m): 17.68 1.5/10. Ike would have to be Axel, basically. Let's see what happens in this update - I'm not sure if we're quite into the ASV yet, but we're close. ...lol. Everything stays almost the same - Duke gains 1, Ike loses 6. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

XIII said it the best. If freakin Axel was back only 1900 votes at this point, and he barely got past Frog once he started losing ASV steam, Ike's finished here.

Well, at least we know that Ike has potential. I can see him being

Yeah, truth be told I don't even expect Gordon to gain much on Duke
with the ASV. I figured it would just be like the opening hours and the
morning where they tied. I thought it was possible if Gordon could hold
the lead to 500 or so but twice that? No sir --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |
