...I can't believe there's even the slimmest chance Gordon drops this. What the hell, Ike. And I expected Sonic to have a strong hardcore following as well, but last year's pre-contest poll sort of soured me on that. Sure he nearly beat Cloud in the "who do you want in SSBB poll", but that was an entirely different ballgame - Sonic is who people expect at this point. --- Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package. |

| I don't think it's a Sonic underperformance as
much as him having three well-known, decent opponents. though I'm not
convinced on Sonic after seeing Knuckles and Shadow, either. --- xyzzy "And just to clear up any remaining confusion, tranny > icon." -Shaggy |

Jesus Gordon this is the most painful "comeback" attempt I've ever seen. --- SC2k7: 53/76, tied for 1402nd Today's Pick: Ness > Liquid Snake |

Day vote comes late on the west coast. And not every kid logs on right
after school. We saw Axel making significant cuts after 9:30. Still, Gordon's late night push should be enough to make this match another fr0g/axel. Maybe Gordon doesn't give up the lead, but he certainly gains and wins late in the night. --- Bracket Go Alucard! |

Eh, I have a feeling Ike's being rallied or something. The higher
ups on the leaderboard are probably Ike loaded, and they'd care enough
to. I'd think Gordon's the one with the rally spurts. I'm pretty sure Ike stays constant, but Gordon has fluctuations. --- If you fail at life you try suicide. If you fail at suicide, what's next? Failing at poetry... - Fidormula |

looks like the people calling for this to be the least popular match were wrong. this'll easily outpoll the Ada match. ...even Sora's match outpolled that, and it started 40 minutes late. --- xyzzy "And just to clear up any remaining confusion, tranny > icon." -Shaggy |

| I doubt Gordon would be able to mount any sort of
comeback if he loses the lead- the second night vote effectively
doesn't exist on school nights- except for Frog. Of course, he probably
won't lose this lead, as Ike's gains should become progressively lower
as we enter night and both Ike's incoming vote percentage and vote
totals drop. --- Character Battle VI -- Points: 79/112 -- T-800 (210 way) Bracket: Squall > Aeris -- Vote: Aeris |

a 40 vote Duke cut and Ike still wins the update. highly doubtful he places -- he can't keep this up.. can he? -- but it's still pretty awesome to watch. darn you school vote --- xyzzy "And just to clear up any remaining confusion, tranny > icon." -Shaggy |

I'm still skeptical how much of this is legitimately Ike. Seems to me
like the time when people would be taking the initiative realizing the
after school vote isn't going to cut it. 90 votes when the most he's managed all afternoon was 50ish, with diminishing vote totals? Give me a break. Not that it'll matter, he can't keep this pace up. Wonder if Duke can break 1000 on Freeman? --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |
