If it comes down to it, I wonder whether L-Block or Snake gets more rally support. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

"Also, if you recall most pre-contest polls
over the past few years, the majority of poll voters hardly give a crap
about these contests. The "I didn't submit a bracket" or "What
contest?" poll options have grown increasingly popular, possibly
because regular voters (and regular board users) are tired of the same
old same old, and L-Block certainly helps alleviate that." Actually I didn't submit a bracket either because I tend to enjoy these contests a lot more when I dont, but I still don't think this is that funny. If L block had made it into a normal contest and pulled a Starcraft, then sure. But this just feels way too forced. --- "The PS2 had 12,000,000 pre orders.

(Or listening to anything else that's been thrown your way apparently <<) This is normal, both as L's performance and as a quarterfinal match total. --- "Opinions are like butts, little girl.

heh, L had an even better hour despite replacing Kratos and Riku with Sonic and Squall. and that doesn't even account for Sprite Snake. --- xyzzy "And Snake has scaled the mountain. He is within 10% of a Tetris block." -yoblazer33 |

Hmm, Squall's not doing so badly. I think that's another sign that
Sonic is probably not going to advance here. Although I kinda expected
him to hurt Snake more than Sonic. --- 100% Frog Log Quest: Current Progress- 400 of 627 Completed: Jaster, Kisala, Deego |

finals!" --- Not changing this sig until Cena, Batista, & Lashley lose their titles. Started: 1/24/07 |

It's really not, though. Even L's last match, this is 1000 ahead of it. And L's last match was on a weekend, where I'm pretty sure the opening vote is stronger, generally. I'm not sure it's happening, but I'm not ruling it out yet. And given the nature of the character, it's foolish to do so. --- I'm the most important member of GAMEFAQs, and they didn't even reserve an account for me!?!? |

Squall has cut 9 votes off Sonic's lead since 1 AM. Last round, Sonic
gained 212 votes over this period. Prediction: L-Block > Snake >
Squall > Sonic. --- 8/30/03. Remember. |

Sonic's last match was on a weekend, too. Expect a weaker night-vote
and stronger day-vote than last time...though I wouldn't be SHOCKED at
either one taking third right now. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

Squall is looking quite good here. If Sora was hurting him significantly at all last round, I would expect his day vote to improve after taking back those votes. Or, alternatively, if Snake is hurting him here that would take away more of his night vote and make him look better in the day as well. |

Man, I just realized... even assuming L-Block has 1000 stuffed votes to his name he's still
2500 votes ahead of Sonic. Haven't been paying attention to how much
Snake has been creaming Sonic. Augh. Farewell, Blue Boy, we hardly knew
ye. --- I'm the most important member of GAMEFAQs, and they didn't even reserve an account for me!?!? |

Wow, L still hasn't let Snake taste that first cut, and he's still
dropping bombs on Sonic. This is so, so impressive. After these two
hours, I really can't see how Master Chief or Dante could possibly hold
up, especially with Snake likely to hurt them both (especially Dante,
who's going to make everyone he beat look even more pathetic). --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

If Snake starts consistently cutting this hour, it'll be hard to
picture him not winning. Even though his night vote is better, we know
L-Block perpetually falls after his incredible starts. I certainly
can't imagine, for example, Snake cutting it to 500 only to have
L-Block pull away again. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
