From Zylo the wolf Posted 11/4/2007 9:28:16 AM #044 People who picked Sonic > Snake and Cloud > Link not only picked the better character to win, but they also took a huge risk. Neither of which say anything at all about their predicting ability. EC should still have came in second place though. =/ ~~~ hochiminh155 successfully defied ZELDAfear.

He's looking to be under that today, perhaps around 44-45%. L stabilized at 32% in the day yesterday, but Link/Cloud/Snake are better in the day than Snake/MC/Dante, even given MC's day vote. So L could conceivably be pushed down to 28-30% during the day. Link should be at 26%, Cloud at 19%, and Snake at 11% at the end of the first hour, and by morning Link should be around that percentage. (Cloud and Snake probably get all of L-Block's percentage during the night.) L probably falls to 36% of the vote by morning - a 10% lead in this match at that time will amount to around 5000 votes. There will be at least 100k votes left. If Link gets 4% more of them than L-Block (32% to 28%)...he only makes up 4000 votes. Jeeze, all that and he still loses. <_< I was actually pretty close! But Link needs a fairly insane 37.54 votes/5 minutes to come back. And Cloud did not win a single hour vs Link, and only took three updates, by a grand total of 14 votes. --- Mustache...and green...Only Explicit Content is more badass than Luigi! www.rit.edu/~zmb0386/Brawl.jpg |

Looks like there is one man left that can put an end to this contest.
To end it the way we all knew it would end L.... yeah right Clearly its the Jay Solano! So who would take that match the L-Block or the Jay Solano? I'll take Solano with 55% of the votes in a nail biter... --- L-Block may seem like a winner but even it couldn't rally enough to beat EC in this year's Guru Contest! Congrats |

I'm thinking Link's going to lose ~3000. Still, after that night vote, I'm happy to wake up to see the lead down. I was afraid I'd see some 10,000 vote lead and be sad. =( --- "I believe that words uttered in passion contain a greater living truth than do those words which express thoughts rationally conceived" - Sensei |

You know Link, cutting 40 votes and then letting him gain them back over a few updates isn't going to help you much. --- http://www.scorehero.com/scores.php?user=6054&group=4&game=6&diff=4 |

And I still think Link has this easily, considering the whole extra hour thing. He should be able to cut all the way up until midnight. --- "ExTha, bandwagon sports fan since '88. Link > Sephiroth Proud supporter of trash like France and Arsenal. |

considering L is still stalling Link pretty frequently, and even
winning outright updates of his own, I'd be inclined to say no. --- Explicit Content. hungry like the wolf |

L-Block has this easily. Link has been at work for hours, and he hasn't
even cut 1000 votes. That, and it looks like L-Block has rebounded
judging by that last hour. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... Explicit Content pwn me... in the Guru Contest! |

Every time Link cuts in the lead, L-Block suddenly surges by a lot. It's clear some stuffing is going on. --- New England Patriots: 8-0 Next: @ Indianapolis Colts (Sun 4:15 PM) |

I believe stuffing is going on (lead goes from 5770 to 5726, L-Block
spikes from 229 to 305 and 286. Drops back down to 256, then Link wins
that update and it shoots back up to 280, 276, 302... and just now he
spiked from 257 to 337 and 320.) I'm sure there's stuffing... but I'm equally sure that nothing will be done, so whatever. --- "I believe that words uttered in passion contain a greater living truth than do those words which express thoughts rationally conceived" - Sensei |

Christ, guys, whenever there is a close or important match, people always accuse of stuffing. Give it a rest. --- *is chubtoad* Early to bed, early to rise, gives a man a small ***** size |

Pretty sure it's just mass rallying. But at this rate, L-Block wins by "only" 3000 votes. Woohoo. ~*ST*~ --- Petition for a system notification when a contribution is removed: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=37308859 |

This is the only time I've even said a word about stuffing in a match, in here or in private. Speaking of vote stuffing has become the peccatum mutum here. It's ridiculous. I thought it looked suspicious, I commented on it. Of all the characters that could be accused of stuffing like this, you'd put L-Block, with all of its bandwagoning, above reproach?
