depends on the fourth. if it's Snake (and it looks almost definitely
like it will be)? I'd say.. 30 minutes. I think a lot of people will
treat Link/Cloud differently and will vote for their preferred guy
there. --- xyzzy "And just to clear up any remaining confusion, tranny > icon." -Shaggy |

I ask again: How long will L-Block be leading in the Finals (vs. Link, Cloud, and Snake)? Over or under one hour? It's such a hard one to predict, because he's such a damned question mark. If the voters feel Link vs. Cloud is more epic than L-Block, I honestly feel it could be as short as a few updates.

Over. I can actually see him get a fairly close percentage to what he
is getting today in the finals- the early voters will support him even
more in the finals. He may have a bigger collapse during the day
though, as he's probably less static outside the opening. --- 8/30/03. Remember. |

L-Block will not win the final. Though he could lead for well over an hour potentially. I think a lot of people will treat Link/Cloud differently and will vote for their preferred guy there. Good point. Though there's also a chance there if you believe the "loyalty" thing, that - since that fourpack will be much stronger than even today's, and the loyalty vote shows up most in the first two hours - that L-Block will look even better there early on than he does today. I'm of the mind though, that L-Block in the final will be of comparable strength to today, and while that will be enough to lead the match for a while, he won't lead all the way until morning like here. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

L'd have a great shot at leading Cloud for an hour, but I doubt it for Link. What?

I ask again: How long will L-Block be leading in the Finals (vs. Link, Cloud, and Snake)? Over or under one hour? I'll say under, since it is Link and Cloud. But I've been saying this for every single match now, so.... Watch it lead for 24 hours. I've never voted against Link (not even against CATS!) except for when I gave Mario a pity vote in the Second Battle Royale last year, but I am so voting for L-Block if/when he makes the final. That being said, while I'm loving L-Block now, I'm kinda hoping he doesn't return, or if he does his "Always get 30%" stays the same in One on Ones. It would probably get old to see him keep beating really strong people in multiple contests. --- "Look out-- It's Liquids and Gases!" |

Dammit. Snake is benefitting way too one-sidedly from L-Block's
decreases. L-Block can't win like that. Come on Sonic and Squall get

With how awful sonic is during the night, L-block is still trouncing
him every update. Snake is getting things under control again, but if
sonic doesn't stop sucking soon, he won't have a chance at coming back. I can't even believe what I'm typing here. --- sig |

I have come to realize that, though Solid and Sonic are both announced
for SSBB, that we don't have any official Nintendo characters in this
poll...whereas L-Block's past two matches had Kirby and/or Donkey Kong.
Perhaps that old Nintendo/Tetris connection we talked about has some
ground to stand on... ...then throw in L-Block's awesome pictures and Solid/Sonic fighting over the SSBB-hype (note to people who won't shut up: their EXTRA strength that came well after they were already Noble Niners). Apparently, 4chan has L-Block's back right now, too. Those things considered, L-Block SHOULD be kicking ass right now in some ways...but goddamn, I never would have imagined it would be like this. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board.
