..Close enough to be a trend.

Sad thing is, L-Block is doing this against one of the two characters I
never like to see lose. Couldn't you have thrown him in the top section
of the bracket, Bacon? --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

I can actually see L-Block hanging with Link for awhile before Link finishes him off late. As for Cloud or Sephiroth, that'd be a rout from the very start. I must say, even with this new format, it's nice to see a brand new character to these polls get as far as the final 8. --- Insert sig here |

Boo! Solid Suck!!! Oh well, L will probably only lose to Snake by less than 1000 votes, which is already a vast improvement from last round. Next round, L will beat Snake by 5000 votes. --- "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* |

Even if L-Block wins (unless he starts to run with this thing and wins
by a couple of thousand), I think Snake goes in as the favorite next
round. He can hurt Chief and Dante (Dante especially) way more than
Sonic or Squall. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Of course, L-Block isn't taking first until the finals. Invincib-L. |

slowest comeback ever that last hour will be rough for L. I wonder who gets the bigger rally at the end should it be close, BRACKETS/Solid ****ing Snake or a Tetris Block? --- xyzzy "And Snake has scaled the mountain. He is within 10% of a Tetris block." -yoblazer33 |

Doesn't matter if Snake zaps Dante, or Chief zaps Snake or whatever, L-Block will just become MORE POWERFUL! Right now, he's proving he can use the ASV to stall Snake! Next match, L-Block will finally gain control of the morning, and the perfect war machine will have been created for the Finals! --- "Opinions are like butts, little girl.

I was thinking about that last night. At first, I figured Snake, the
most universally loved power player in these contests, would have an
edge, but after taking a look at the boards, no way. If rallying is
going to decide it, L-Block wins. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

If L-Block studies hard, he could become a doctor or a laywer. *pause* More likely a stuntman. |

It's like the entire stats topic has made a heel turn and hit Snake in
the back of the head with a steel chair. But then again my main rooting
interest is BRACKETS although I don't particularly like Sonic
humiliation either. --- Should I start running now? |

32 vote cut. Lol. L-Block better not choke this. At the same time, Snake has to keep these big cuts going. Chopping off 10 votes and then being stalled/losing votes will only cancel themselves out. --- New England Patriots: 8-0 Next: @ Indianapolis Colts (Sun 4:15 PM) |

Looking at the updates, I'm *real* glad I wasn't here for the start of
this match. Poor Snake... :( At least he's closed the gap (WITH A
TETRIS BLOCK), but I'm not sold on his day vote versus L's, even (or
especially?) after last round. I guess we're seeing it now, though... Where is KH. He can motivate Snake into winning by sheer fanboyism...! ... I believe! --- Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package. |
