Sonic's gotta deal with Squall's night vote too. Hell, he'll probably need his morning and day vote to finish in third...

If Snake comes back, so does Sonic. Who is going to stop Sonic from murdering the ASV? <_<

The massive lead L-Block will have?

What about placing second....AGAIN?!

Well I'd be pretty shocked if that didn't happen.


It took 50 minutes for Snake to win an update last round.

20 minutes in, Blocky has an 800 vote lead.


Snake will still win. But L-Block will probably lead for 1/3 of the match, maybe even 1/2 the match.

People are just overreacting as usual :)

L-Block's lead over Kratos: 1272
L-Block's lead over Sonic: 1302

Sonic's got a better Power Hour (though with L sucking up so much it might not matter) and a comparable day vote. L's got second place locked up if you ask me.

I think we should have gotten one point for getting one of the two correct + 1 if you got both in the correct order. that's how I'd fix that little mistake.

I'd go with 1 point for getting one right, out of order. 2 points for one right in the correct order. 3 points for both right, out of order. And the full 4 points for the correct order.

Sonic came from 2200 down to 1900 up, but it took Crono 5 hours to get that lead- L-Block looks like he could match it in one! With less votes to work with too, as Snake and Squall are in this poll.

If and when L advances in a match with two NNers, L-Block. Easily. At least some people saw Starcraft coming.

trannyscience | Posted 10/31/2007 9:30:48 PM | message detail
yeah, this is between Snake and Sonic now, and I wouldn't count L out of getting first place. yeah, he's going to slow down after an hour.. but he's still going to gain. 100 vote updates turn into 30-50 vote updates. they aren't going to disappear instantly.

L-Block may well have a 2-3000 vote lead before Snake wins updates consistently. Snake doesn't have a great day vote, not compared to Sonic. I like L-Block's chances of first place here. again, 1050 votes in 30 minutes.

StarCraft's run or L-Block's run?

L-Block with ease.

Starcraft barely beat Halo and needed massive rallying (possibly stuffing) to do it.

L-Block will probably not struggle too much with Master Chief, with Chef/Halo much much stronger now than back then.

Plus L will probably make the actual Finals.

Seriously. Snake is actually in danger of losing to L-Block. There's no denying that. L-Block would have to have a humongous collapse on a grander scale than ever before to at least not be in contention for first

People seem to be claiming to be stuffing. But given the failure of the two Pokemon, I can't really say I believe it.

You know, I was tempted to still give it to Starcraft, as really how hated it became from when it was on top of the world beating Halo and Kingdom Hearts to how abhorred it was at beating Wind Waker was among my favorite moments... but L getting 40% on Sonic, Snake, and Squall tops that easy.

In terms of excitement, Starcraft.
In terms of impressiveness, L-Block.

I don't think it has even second confirmed just yet.

Anyone who claims stuffing simply can't handle the power of a joke character everyone understands.

Seriously, the fact that everyone, regardless of how casual a gamer, can understand L block as a joke entry gives it the sort of power no other joke entry has ever been capable of.

I keep waiting for that epic collapse, the one that happens every other ****ing time in these early-vote situations. But it's just not happening.

Maybe my L-Block > Snake prediction was just a round too early?

Actually we are a little bit over pace.
Not more than a few hundred votes, though...!

Not quite. You'd end up getting half points there (64). EC would get 1/4 points (32). So you'd end up taking 2nd behind him.
