L-Block takes the lead right back! He's destroying Kirby right now;
this lead will easily be pushed to 4,000+, and Kirby won't make that
up. I would love it for L-Block to get the lead back (comfortably) and
hold it until the after school vote, though. Watching him lead for over
half the poll would be so priceless. =P --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

It's trying to pull away? Crazy stuff. Can't believe it's looking to have a core audience of ~30% of the vote.

L-Block likes to build up a small lead s-l-o-w-l-y, just for Kratos to
come and slash it all away with one update, just for L-Block to go
right back to building a small lead. --- ~FFDragon. (at Work !!) The Cream of Resident Evil Fanboyism. |

I just realised if today's result is L-Block > Kratos, those of us
who have Kirby > Kratos would score more than those who have Kratos
> Kirby... and of course if it manages to win here, L-block will
also take second (or even first place) in the next round, so we are
equally screwed next round anyway... >_> --- Xcarvengerx (scar-fan-gear-rex) /n/ = A plethora of quixotic illumination. The cream of Chocobo fanboyism. |

-I also don’t think L-Block holds up as well here thanks to three big names as opposed to one. -L-Block advancing was badass as all hell, but he'll probably succumb to all of the Nintendo power here. But not before massive joke votes give him a Bidoof-like run for a little while. He may very well be in 1st or second place for an hour or two before running out of gas. -The match should be great to see when it starts, but this one should be over one way or another before the hour is up. -And what of the results? God, I want to have L-Block in the top two so badly, but I just don't think he has that type of pop. -And by the way: This match seems pretty obvious. Kratos > Kirby is a total lock. -Kirby and Kratos are the clear favorites to move on here, though the order is up in the air. -L-Block will take last. It’ll probably start off in first or second before dieing off. The only character I can see L-Block beating is DK and that’s if Kirby decides to SFF him or if he chokes badly. However the L-Block may perform worse than what he did last round because like Pac-Man I see it doing well against unknown characters (last round it was Kirby vs. not Kirby for the average voter), but with three known characters I wouldn’t be surprised if it somehow fails to break 10%. -As for second, Kirby should have it locked up barring any L-shaped surprises. L-block certainly has a shot here, but I think that it will crumble with the increased competition, and the fact that 2 of its competitors are Nintendo stars. I'm not poking fun (because lol my bracket) but any match where that many of the contest analysts can be entirely off base... It's a great match. I can't wait to see how this one ends up with the ASV. --- ~FFDragon. (at Work !!) The Cream of Resident Evil Fanboyism. |

Wow L-Block!!! I didn't think he'd have more than 26%-27% in the morning. Looks like that horrible pic last round did hurt hit quite a bit. So just image how he'd do with an in-game pic! He'd be monstrous! Go L-Block! To Victory! --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

As tranny said, next round will be three badasses... and a block. And one of the badasses is Solid Snake. L-Block's looking mighty fine to advance to round 4 if he withstands Kirby's ASV. --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." - Joseph Stalin |

So does... it have any chance of NOT getting 4th next round? What? As Harrich said, L-Block could be the favorite for 2nd there depending on the pic. He just needs to stay within 2-3 points of Kratos here. Which Kratos might actually win this by more than 3 points, but even then L-Block has a real good shot next round. Especially if L-Block had any fanbase overlap whatsoever with Kirby. Because he won't have any real overlap with anybody next round. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

L-Block could be the favorite for 2nd there depending on the pic. I think L-Block is the clear favorite regardless of the picture. Any way you look at it, Snake and L-Block will be competing against Kratos and either Ryu Hayabusa, Riku, or Nightmare. I don't think any of those latter four can resist Snake's onslaught as well as the block. In fact, Snake seems like the perfect character to toss all four of them like a sack of potatoes. |

I think L-Block is the clear favorite regardless of the picture. Not regardless - if he got his round 1 three little pigs house of bricks picture, then he wouldn't be. But most likely he will be. And god that's so awesome. In fact, Snake seems like the perfect character to toss all four of them like a sack of potatoes. Yeah, people have said this since Hayabusa>Riku - though it was in regard to Kirby being the clear favorite there, not L-Block.

It's pretty crazy to see how bad Kirby beat L-Block last round only for
L-Block to deliver this kind of whipping to him the next. I ain't going
to say L-Block's fanbase is THIS loyal -- two Nintendo icons here,
remember; that'll change next round -- but with a sprite round, L-Block
could use and abuse it like never before. We've seen Solid **** a LOT,
Hayabusa will get a NES pic that ain't nearly as popular as his Xbox
game anymore, and Kratos will probably get a grainy pic to make up for
not having a sprite. Throw in that Solid/Kratos/Hayabusa all appeal to
similar crowds... ...people have been backing the joke thus far, and everybody has played Tetris before (except for those kinds of people...!). L-Block could shock next round, is all. Certainly not L-Block > Solid, but L-Block could definitively take second place. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board.
