It will be interesting to see how much Subby drops off here. I still think he finishes close to PoP

stop it.

Considering how PoP is getting crushed, I'd say Sonic is fine and Subzero has legit strength. But it isn't gonna finish anywhere near as close as this. Also lol at losing 3 spots on a 1 point match, leaderboard got pimp slapped.

Should I start running now?
Karma Hunter | Posted 10/3/2007 9:07:46 PM | message detail
PoP finishes much closer to Joe than he does to Sub-Zero (travesty !!). If Joe doesn't upend him outright, of which there's a small possibility.

Just looking at the freeze, I'm starting to wish I had Sonic > Sub-Zero and Snake > Master Chief...

Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package.

You're telling me. Five years later, and I'm still surprised that Scorpion was our inaugural Mortal Kombat reg. Did people just misspell Sub-Zero's name or something?

Doesn't Sonic usually have a crappy board vote anyway? I remember him sucking with it before.

Well, Subby lost it to Master Chief, and practically went even with the Chief with the day vote...he shouldn't be dropping too substantially here.

PoP also had a terrible, terrible board vote.

trannyscience | Posted 10/3/2007 9:13:49 PM | message detail
that said, I don't think this is really all that bad. he's clearly going to rise once this early vote wears off, though I doubt he's going anywhere near 20%. Sub probably falls back a bit, but not a whole ton. 30%, maybe.

nice, predictable match, outside of that early vote for Sub where he looked like a contender for 15 seconds. next

YoAriel33 | Posted 10/3/2007 9:13:53 PM | message detail
I figured Prince would look pretty sad here. He doesn't seem the type to benefit from a hardcore fanbase, and whatever casual support he'd automatically have for being a badass is instantly stolen by Sub-Zero.

Of course, this is about the only thing I've called right all contest, but no one cares about the first 31 days any way.

Poor PoP. The way things have looked this contest, Link > Zero looks like an impossibility (in the truest sense of the word, whereas before it was a virtual impossibility). Oh, and of course I'm feeling sketchy about Luigi and Kirby's chances against Mudkip and L-Block... (oh god)

Interesting start. DIdn't pan out, maybe, but still interesting.

So. Over/under on Joe and Prince combined breaking 25%?
Janus5000 | Posted 10/3/2007 9:18:13 PM | message detail
Kirby losing to L-Block would be the greatest thing ever.

Shame DK would have to hurt Kirby a lot... and DK LFFing someone just seems weird.

I think this second round is where we really see how wacky this format is. You tweak a couple of different fanbases in a 4 way match and let the sparks fly.

Almost everybody failed this match so only 7 people fell off the Top 50. Jakyl25, Omniscience, Naye745, pikamasta, JustForFun1988, HeroicLuigi and dragoncrazer did not have Duke Nukem > Gordon Freeman as yesterday's winners.

18 people on the Top 50 managed to get 2 points and survive. KirbyKhan, LegendaryGeno, frozenflame264, The_Lady_Ashe, bokoboko42, IAmAnAlt, BeautyQueenEtna, HunterKiller47, MarioSuperstar, BeTheMan, HaRRicH, Xene_Elk, jumpers123, Warning_Cmexy, bogalx, PSU_Jer, QwazyMofo and LeonhartFour also did not have Duke Nukem > Gordon Freeman as yesterday's winners.

22 people on the Top 50 survive after only collecting a single point. hochiminh155, TheColderWar, E_Gadd, smitelf, Esperwolf, alpha_door, The_Dealer_7, Silent_Alarm, TexasAggie, WhyBanTheKitty, Buzzoro, BDawg250, Tediz247, JonesSodaMastr2, miaminole21, alphawindow, shadow8021, Board8_BOP, LessThan3Presea, ooBlack_Roseoo, Aoshi47 and BigDMan08 only has something vaguely similar to Duke Nukem > Gordon Freeman as yesterday's winners.

Congrats to the only 3 people on the Top 50 to score full points. TacoAssassin, VenomousWest and THEVinceYoung had the foresight to see Duke Nukem > Gordon Freeman and have shot up considerably in the standings.
