It's a shame that vote stuffing isn't being investigated. At this point in the contest, it might be the difference between a winning bracket. I'd be very surprised if none has occurred in this one. And it doesn't need to be much.

It doesn't matter for my bracket, but for others.

this isn't a night vote.. more like rallying.

and that rally will likely hold Snake off.

Better to do it now when it's not in danger, I guess. But yeah. to whoever said this was Snake dropping too... not so much.

But if that's true, why is Snake falling just as fast (if not faster) as L-Block's rising?

(I specifically posted that detail trying to head off discussions like these, btw. Though to be fair, I was thinking of vote stuffing more than rallying.)

L is one vote away from a 10,000 vote lead on Sonic.

Because everyone is dropping, maybe? (Except for Sonic who has been rising since the day vote started) Its percent has to come from somewhere.

Okay...
19:02:01 to 19:36:47: 1467
19:42:01 to 20:17:02: 1344

That just about accounts for the reversal by itself, actually.
creativename | Posted 11/1/2007 5:28:48 PM | message detail
L-Block wins!? Wow! Last night I didn't think he'd pull it off, and thought that people who expected it were being way too eager.

Won't try to catch up on the topic until later. So has there been any suspected cheating/rallying? This is pretty much legit right?

Also I think L-Block will probably be the underdog next round, because if there is any sort of loyalty factor at all that he's benefiting from, his slim margin will go away (the reverse L-Block patented flip-flop! from 2-1-2) But if there is any "momentum" voting he could have a shot at first again next round.
