Well Kirby Vs. Persia was a weekend. Excluding Kirby's opening vote, I think it was pretty consistent. But being consistent with Kirby was what had me under the impression he was a day voter. Sub-Zero falling in the night, Persia gaining in the night... IT'S MADNESS

*insert a generic comment about Sonic and Prince of Persia doing pretty well with the morning votes and so they will also do well in the ASV*

01:00 | 39.62% | 34.18% | 15.83% | 10.38%
02:00 | 39.48% | 34.17% | 16.67% | 09.67%
03:00 | 39.27% | 33.56% | 16.62% | 10.55%

05:00 | 38.54% | 31.26% | 19.35% | 10.86%
06:00 | 39.20% | 31.36% | 20.20% | 09.23%
07:00 | 45.60% | 28.68% | 16.37% | 09.34%
08:00 | 42.21% | 28.84% | 18.94% | 10.01%

Well technically speaking PoP is doing worse with the morning vote so that doesn't work >_>

He's probably the consistent type

But seriously, if the morning vote IS indicative of the ASV then Sub-Zero is going to drop like a rock throughout the entire freaking match What's up with those strong first 3 hours anyway

Xcarvengerx | Posted 10/4/2007 5:33:40 AM | message detail
That's good for my oracle then! Sonic needs to take most of the ASV, Subby needs to drop 4 more percents, PoP needs to drop 1% and VJ needs to stay there...

so we have a new trend called fighting character trend?

Oracle prediction: THAT'S NO GOOD! 42.28% - Cold? 26.15% - Prince of Rewindia 18.60% - Joe 12.97%
Xcarvengerx | Posted 10/4/2007 6:01:17 AM | message detail
so any speculation about what our Round 2 match pics will look like? I think it will be 4 corners pic with mostly face-upper body/close-up shot of each character. don't think it will have the same style as this round.

This morning vote is making me feel much better about this match. PoP and Sonic should both gain with the ASV

Since I have no idea how the MK hierarchy goes after Sub & Scorps; who would probably be the strongest non-ninja from the series? I'm thinking we could stand to see at least one more of these guys in the next contest.

Sub-Zero is only going to drop from here by the end of the match, and PoP is going to increase. He's not getting doubled.

The n00b Avenger | Posted 10/4/2007 7:29:34 AM | message detail
I don't know if PoP is going to increase that much. His % will probably go down a tad in the ASV to ~18% and he'll probaby hit 18% by the time school lets out. So he'll just hover around that area all day. Unless for some reason the ASV is more cruel to him than the morning vote

I would think it would treat him better than appearance-altering shots from an unreleased game, no matter how cool he looks. Plus, really...you see him more like that than any other time!

I think we need to see how other Noble Niners perform in a four pack that doesn't completely suck before we say that Sonic's performance here is terrible . Fortunately, we only have to wait until tomorrow...though I really can't come up with a decent percentage for Mega Man. <_<

Sonic's gotta win the school vote handily in order to look good in my eyes. Definitely a poor performance so far.

I'd have to see some round 2 noble matches before I gauge how bad this was for Sonic. People seem quick to forget the "quality" of the other matches. And even then some of the round 2 matches are weaker than what Sonic had to deal with here. Bacon is a damn Sonic hater CONFIRMED.

To be fair, Mega Man's supposed to be even weaker than Sonic, and Yoshi/Knux/KOS would crush Subby/PoP/Joe.

...like who? Samus is the only one that could really be compared to the weakness here, depending on what the difference in strength between Scorpion and Sub-Zero is.

If Bacon is indeed a Sonic hater, he should have put Sonic in the first half of the whole bracket where he can meet the big three, Mario, Samus and Crono.

Oh, and Sonic probably has the weakest fourpack in round 2, and is saved from being upset in round 3 only by SFF. I'd hardly call that anti-Sonic bias.

Of all the NNers, Sonic has the easiest path (aside from Snake obviously). Sonic's basically guaranteed a spot in the finals, as opposed to Crono, Mario Samus and Mega Man who all got stuck with Clinkeroth breathing down their necks.

Yeah ok I thought CONFIRMED meant it wasn't to be taken too seriously but yes I admit Sonic has a cut and dry path to the semis at the least. And really how Megaman does against a stronger fourpack tomorrow should speak volumes, but you can't totally discredit Subby having legit strength in this format.

transience | Posted 10/4/2007 11:59:28 AM | message detail
yeah, I agree, this isn't really saying anything here. Sonic looks okay to me, though my expectations weren't high given the other Sonic guys.

that said, MM might do better simply because he might be able to take advantage of Yoshi. that match is impossible to nail on percentages.

oh, and nice morning vote by Sonic. looks like he might be able to swing 2% throughout the day. I'm not even sure MC managed that.

*looks* ah, he managed 3%. he won the day vote slightly vs. Auron, though.
