So, for when the other topic fills up... Assuming Ganondorf and Luigi
both survive, what are the odds of MC > Yuna in round 3? (Also
assuming Yuna advances tomorrow, which she will) ~~~ Ashe. The Cream of Final Fantasy Fanboyism. http://www.destructoid.com/elephant//ul/9855-550x-contra-poster-2-dsf.jpg |

| I'd say Yuna would have a great shot, especially if Luigi evens things out before the match ends. The problem is, of course, that Mudkip will almost certainly advance. Luigi is down a nice chunk of votes already, and it's not like the Pokemon will just collapse. He did fine in the day last time. |

The Mudkip fad has been around way longer And yes, Vincent and Link do > Ganon and Luigi of course, but I'd say if Mudkip was in the poll with Link and Vincent, he'd still impress more than Doof. --- GSB International Champion Masamune Masa/Hiko/HeroicTronBonne/Cory/Buddha |

I don't really see how anyone can call this even remotely legit when
Mudkip is comfortably outdoing his percentage from last round.
Pit/Tingle > Ganondorf? And if that's true, then why is Luigi's
percentage halved? But this is pretty funny though :-) Good thing I don't give a damn about any of these characters. --- 148/192. Today : Ganondorf > Luigi. Tomorrow : Master Chief > Yuna *One_Winged_Ange* |

So with Bacon not trying to stop cheating and people now know that...
this could make for an interesting contest. We might see a 200k vote
match >_> --- Dood! I'm another alt of Albion Hero! |

Why do so many think that Bacon is ingnoring the cheaters? I think he's
asleep now so I wouldn't expect him to do anything in the last 12
hours, and Mudkip can still lose to both Ganondorf (who have made two
cuts on him in a row now) and Luigi (Who still isn't that far behind). --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. Proud supporter of Knuckles and Magus in Character Battle VI |

The difference is that Mudkip actually holds up during the day. Bidoof was already collapsing at this point. --- Finally a damn bracket! http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2636/ivotedphoenixyi0.png |

Bidoof was screwed by 3 AM; the percentage it was getting per update
was already dropped by HALF compared to the start. It's nearing 5 AM
now, and Mudkip is increasing its lead on Luigi, and holding steady
against Ganondorf. I'd be pretty surprised if Mudkip didn't advance now. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |

Yeah...save a super Mario morning vote and Mudkip disappearing, its
becoming less and less unlikely for Mudkip NOT to throw a wrench into
the work soon. --- "Opinions are like butts, little girl. Everyone's got one and nobody thinks their's stink." -Lunar 2:EB *Claims KG's Eclair, C.C. & Tear Grants* |

this was Mudkip's best time last match -- maybe because the
rallying/"stuffing" is more effective with less votes? either way,
Mudkip was pulling 33% against Luigi at this time, and both Luigi and
Ganondorf are known for their mornings. Ganondorf almost definitely
takes the lead, but Luigi may be too far behind. with something like
Mudkip though, I won't count anything out. --- SERIOUS REMINDER: vote for Vivi. "All I can do... is just sit with them." |

I think Ganon and Luigi will split the morning vote, resulting in
enough for Ganon to take the lead, but not enough for Luigi to pull
ahead, crazy enough as it seems. LOL crazy matches. --- "Opinions are like butts, little girl. Everyone's got one and nobody thinks their's stink." -Lunar 2:EB *Claims KG's Eclair, C.C. & Tear Grants* |
