Mostly because it's just irking me right now. I mean yeah, it's easy to pull out a Marcus Fenix or Master Chief match and show that it's clearly very different, I suppose. Mostly I just want support that Ness wouldn't have necessarily taken the ASV if they had one in his match, since Ike's trends are very like Ness's. I think the real argument I'm reaching for is that the weekend has a day vote and it's not just "all condensed into the morning." I guess I should just wait till Marcus's/Chief's match this next round, as they both happen on a Saturday. --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

Well no I don't think the standing will change but at least Ike isn't doing bad for "trash". --- Should I start running now? |

If Ike had held the lead to under 2000 he might be in this. As it is this match is all but over, for everyone. --- The apples were too strong for him.- Abomstar |

Well, Ike is taking off, and Gordon and Duke are still pretty much split. Yeah, I think it's over. Ike's going to get close, but fall short in the end. --- Moltar Status: The Analysis Crew...believe Duke/Ike/Gordon/Guybrush - Bracket: Gordon > Duke - Vote: Duke (101/120) |

If Ike would perform the way he has performed the last three updates, he'd catch up to Gordon! Almost... --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |

if Freeman loses after he built a 2100 vote lead against a guy without

This match is annoying the hell out of me. Every time Freeman mounts
any sort of comeback of decent sized cuts in a row, Duke just decimates
him with one and then pads his lead a little more. darn you balls of steel --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

Wow. Looks like Ike might come closer to closing in on Freeman than Freeman is on Duke --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

hmm, 261 votes that hour. Ike's going to need to go faster than that in
order to catch Freeman. fortunately for him, the two strongest hours of
the afterschool vote are coming up, but he probably needs to be nearly
even with him by 9pm to have a chance here, and I doubt he's going to
double his pace. --- xyzzy "And just to clear up any remaining confusion, tranny > icon." -Shaggy |

So if Ike can keep cutting Gordon by 20 something votes per update,
he'll reach him by the very end. It's a small possibility, but it could
happen. --- If you fail at life you try suicide. If you fail at suicide, what's next? Failing at poetry... - Fidormula |
