I don't see how you people are calling what Marcus is doing a comeback. Ocelot's still gaining. Not as much, but still. Ocelot is increasing his lead on Kefka, but Marcus is gaining on both. Hopefully Marcus will take the 3rd spot soon so it will be much easier for us to see who gains on who. --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day.

Ocelot is losing votes to Marcus, not gaining. I think the comeback is going to be in full force once he passes Kefka. I.. think I like Marcus, but I just don't know what's going to happen here. either Marcus gets close and comes up short and he obliterates Ocelot come afternoon. I'm not sure which, though. --- ZFStix: nin nin nin ima ninja!!! nin nin nin XD ZFStix: kill it |

I don't see how you people are calling what Marcus is doing a comeback. Ocelot's still gaining. Not as much, but still. GO MARCUS! He's gaining on Kefka, not on Marcus. --- 108/144. Today : Cloud > Marcus. Tomorrow : Auron > Bowser *One_Winged_Ange* |

I'd expect Marcus to start kicking it into gear over the next 2 hours,
and maintain that until the evening, where he and Ocelot will likely go
even. TuRtLe ~~~ 109/144 in the contest. Next pick: Cloud > Marcus Fenix BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

Ocelot is not gaining on Marcus. He cut 38 votes off his lead in the
past 10 minutes. Not the most impressive comeback but it's progress --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

You have to remember, it's still before 8 on the west coast. Most
people (teenagers especially) like to sleep in on the weekends. Noon-4
should be Marcus' prime time here. TuRtLe ~~~ 109/144 in the contest. Next pick: Cloud > Marcus Fenix BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

Looks like I messed up on my math a little. With 160 updates left Marcus needs 6.97 gains/update in order to win. --- Wow, an intelligent criticism of Zeta. Never thought I'd see the day. - AmuroNT1 |

Yeah, I'm conceding this match...I'm expecting Marcus to be in the lead

From: Zylo the wolf | Posted: 10/7/2007 9:39:12 AM | Message Detail | #226 Fenix will finish above Kefka, but I think Ocelot is safe. He's still 1200 votes ahead of Fenix, a lead that only Phoenix Wright has managed to drop in this format. Uhh.. Frog lost 1900 votes and only won because of cheating at the very end. Oh, and Marcus is kicking the crap out of Ocelot right now, I'd say he has this. Not over yet of course but he's impressing me. --- SC2k7: 88/128, tied for 1364th Today's Pick: Mega Man > Knux (whoops) |

| Marcus Fenix, Kefka, Revolver Ocelot, they're all cool guys, but I can't stand Cloud, and yet everyone likes him, is it the spiky hair? |

| __Smurf__ | Posted 10/7/2007 8:38:09 AM | message detail |
| If Marcus keeps going at this speed it'll take him
like 7 hours just to catch up with Ocelot. By which point it'll be
catching up with Ocelot time again. Could go down to the wire, maybe? Or Fenix could just speed up and bury revolver soon. --- Smurf The cream of Sonic Fanboyism I eat wang |

I suppose I shouldn't be too worried. If my dorm suite is any indication, most of the Xbox players should still be asleep. --- Wow, an intelligent criticism of Zeta. Never thought I'd see the day. - AmuroNT1 |

I suppose I shouldn't be too worried. If my dorm suite is any indication, most of the Xbox players should still be asleep. I keep reading this as Wait till the teenage drunks wake up! Or something to that effect. Given what happened with GTA, we may not want to jump to that kind conclusion. Though it would be funny...

I think Kefka help up pretty well today. I think Frog technically crashed a bit more than he did --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

Marcus has sliced off 200 since I last checked, most of it being pretty

Haha, awesome. Nice to see Cloud over 55% and still gaining. Great showing from him. Surprising to see Ocelot holding up as well as he is. Hopefully he can hold on here. --- let's mosey |

There'll no doubt be a dropoff next year for Xbox characters, the
question is how much. Given how dramatically Tommy has slided since
Vice City in 2 years time they could all be fodder. --- Smurf The cream of Sonic Fanboyism I eat wang |

Gears of War was really popular. The
question is, will the sequal be on the 360 or the next gen. console?
Also, will it stay a Microsoft exclusive? --- Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it is too dark to read. -Groucho Marx |
