So is El-Block the favorite for 2nd next round?
Keno316 | Posted 11/1/2007 12:46:48 PM | message detail
Oh you're gonna regret pushing the lead under 400 again Snake!

L does NOT FORGIVE!!!

Ah, L-Block you have done well to make it this far. Unfortunately I do not think he has the gas to see it through :(

Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package.

I'd love to see L lead through the whole ASV.


...or at least til 6PM, so he can say he's led the 3/4 of the match.

L-Block is a construct!

Snake's sneak attacks don't work!

Snake is screwed!


Despite the anti-Snake sentiment, this was awesome.

L-Block seems to be holding firmer than he was earlier today. Snake fluctating around the very high 300s won't cut it. He can't take forever to break every 100 barrier.

And look, another tie. Now it's been a hour since Snake has broken a 100 barrier (When he brought the lead down from 430 to 398 on 15:31), and L-Block's still leading by 379.

See what I mean? Snake has almost no more rally power left. =)

Snake doesn't really have to make much progress. He just needs to bring it within range for the final 2 hours in order to win.

...but goddammit, just take second place so I can get some bucks!

If it's going to be decided in the final two hours, L-Block's going to win by over a hundred votes. Solid needs to be preparing for the final two hours, if anything.

Squall has done fantastically this contest. Although L-Block, MC and Pikachu are obviously the #1-3 stars of this contest in terms of expectations, Squall definitely shouldn't be far behind them. And he did everything he did in spite of LFF, rather than because of it like Pikachu and Ryu.

It looks like the near elimination of anti-votes theory about this contest was a success, too, considering I bet Squall's hefty anti-votes being dissipated in the same manner as MC, Pika and Sora's helped inflate him from impressive to quite impressive.

Come to think of it, Cloud and Seph are always whined about vastly more on this board than Link or Mario ever have been, and although the board obviously doesn't represent the voters completely, one would have to suspect that Cloud and Seph do get a lot more anti-votes than Link does. Cloud's anti-votes will inevitably go (to a large degree) to L-Block and Snake, I'm sure, so that is definitely one more sign that points to a possible Cloud win. Assuming he can get through L-Block, of course, which at this point I honestly don't know. Heck, maybe we might even see Cloud > L-Block or L-Block > Cloud. Link not even placing would be the funniest thing ever.

On the matter of the last hour - I think both Block and Snake are going to have pretty big rallies if this thing goes down to the wire.

The final hour of this match could be insane.
