Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 545

creativename | Posted 11/3/2007 11:03:59 PM | message detail
L-Block is 265 more votes ahead of Link than he was over Snake at this point last match.

The percentage matters more, because it reflects momentum.

L-Block outdid Snake by 14 points at the 2-3 hour that match (Snake got 22%), and finished 8 points back. Link is better with the day than Snake by a good bit. If Link gets 10 points less than L-Block the next hour, it would probably take a miracle to comeback. 8 points less...well, then maybe we have something worthy of discussion.

Block fell off way too slowly during its second match with Snake for there to be stuffing, and in the third match it barely even lost updates. The stuffers would have to be working round the clock for that to happen.

Stuffing at the beginning of the match is still a possibility. It still drops off pretty ridiculously. It admittedly probably does not stuff enough to make the difference in the result, but eh.

I cannot believe I am entertaining the idea of Link being completely out of a poll 2 hours into it... but, my lord. L-Block is going to be at 5,000 here in a couple of updates...

So, what about those Clinkeroth or Snake fans? Wouldn't they want to stuff too?

Don't you normally count time in (fractions of) seconds since 1970? What's 1969 doing up there?

Man, this is a lot more trouble than I thought...I can't simply subtract seconds because it re-adjusts for time zone and the next time zone hasn't hit DST yet! Bah.

L-Block defeating Clink is so significant that it's destroying the space-time continuum.

Though I wonder why Jay Solano beating Link didn't destroy the world.
