Expect Geno to begin a "dumb comeback" which is a term I so aptly
named. Phoenix has this but it will be closer. Bowser, unlike, Fraudus,
has an okay day vote so it will be harder for Geno to make up ground on
Phoenix than it was for Bomberman last year. Don't get antsy, this will
not be an exciting match. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=55 |

trends here are really similar to Phoenix/Bomberman - right down to the
slowdown at the end of the first hour followed up with the big update. Phoenix however has 200 votes more on Geno compared to Bomberman at the moment. --- Got crushed by Explicit Content in the Guru Contest! http://www.scorehero.com/scores.php?user=6054&group=4&game=6&diff=4 |

I need Geno and Bowser to climb 2% and the others to drop 2% for my Oracle prediction to be great. I can see it happening. Here's what I need to happen for my Oracle prediction to be good: Bowser: Shoot up like crazy in percentage. This should hopefully occur over the next few days and also during the ASV. Deckard: He is fine right now, as long he stays in the 13% area. Geno: Needs to drop by about 2 to 3%. Should hopefully occur with Bowser leaching votes from Geno. Phoenix: Needs to drop by about 3% over the course of this match. --- Luster Soldier - Popular at school. ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ |

geno himself fell in percentage almost as much as phoenix from an hour
in to the end. geno was against better day vote competition i guess,
but still... phoenix is 8 points ahead. he only fell 5 last time, and
is already splitting the amount he's overperforming his end result by
with geno. --- DQVIII LLG - level 1/6/10/19, before Captain Crow Brawl FC: 0344-9611-6716 |

Why is Bowser doing so bad? The same reason all Nintendo characters are
doing bad - A Brawl de-boost. The evidence at this point is undeniable.
I mean look at Link. He did not get the 66.67% he needed. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=55 |

Eh, I don't know why people were expecting Bowser to get in the range
of 50%... this is a weak four pack but Phoenix is at least a low
midcarder and Geno's SFFing (because I refuse to use "LFF") him a bit
probably. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 1 - Raiden/Kain/Other Dude. Target: 48%. GAME FUEL. Believe |

nothing is for certain when Phoenix is involved. I don't like judging
him and what he's going to do until like 2am. a 1000 vote lead is
nothing for a guy that bleeds like Phoenix. --- xyzzy "Man...tranny gets bored, the rest of us suffer." -satai |

Why is Bowser doing so bad? I'll put the blame on Phoenix receiving a lot of board support right now. This should die down in a few hours and Bowser will hopefully look much better by the end of this match. --- Luster Soldier - Popular at school. ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ |

thing is, it's like expecting jill valentine to catch up with frog when
being 1000 votes behind. geno's day vote isn't much better than
phoenix's, and phoenix has the "win in ties" advantage. --- DQVIII LLG - level 1/6/10/19, before Captain Crow Brawl FC: 0344-9611-6716 |

Deckard Cain to have a Diablo level day vote, let's do this. I doubt it. Bowser's day vote will probably be good enough that it will mask out any noticable signs of Deckard's day vote. --- Luster Soldier - Popular at school. ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ |

I think people are overestimating the "Diablo is the freaking devil"
factor. He's far and away the best entrant that game is going to have,
but his strength is still primarily tied to the game I'd like to think. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 1 - Raiden/Kain/Other Dude. Target: 48%. GAME FUEL. Believe |

I don't think Cain will be awful in the day or anything, but I get the feeling he's a night guy. that just seems logical. WHY AM I ARGUING DECKARD CAIN'S DAY/NIGHT TRENDS time to play mega man 9 --- xyzzy "Man...tranny gets bored, the rest of us suffer." -satai |

| 2 contests in a row Phoenix had to go cheat his way past one of my characters. The only way I'll be satisfied is if Proto Man gets into the contest next year and beats the crap out of Phoenix Wrong. |

his opponents are early guys, but who knows. --- xyzzy "Man...tranny gets bored, the rest of us suffer." -satai |

Lopen (#435) I agree with this. Geno will bounce up a bit and Bowser too. Deckard should end at 11% (My prediction ;D) and Phoenix might just drop ever so slightly. --- Justin's CB Points: 16 | Points After this Round: 20 Today: Bowser > Phoenix | Tomorrow: Mario > Knuckles |

Let's do this, Deckard. And maybe Phoenix could commit one of the biggest choke jobs in contest history, and Cain could have a good day vote and we could see the comeback. That would be awesome.

I think Cain will be similar to Guybrush for voting patterns over the
course of the day. Guybrush reached an all time high of 15.43% in the
morning and starting falling hard in the day to finish the match at
13.78%. --- Luster Soldier - Popular at school. ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ |

Finally caught up. Looks like Bowser's gonna hang right at 40% until the day hits. Well, he should go up when Phoenix recedes. Not too far out from expectations this time it seems! --- http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u205/MapleMasta/IkeClimbers2.jpg |

Man imagine a Phoenix vs like, Roxas match. Compare Phoenix's day vote
to the KH day vote and I wonder how many votes Roxas could turn around
in that match. Augh I wish Diablo were here instead of Cain. --- Arsenal FC 4-0-1 Pts: 12 Pos: Top of the league, where we belong. character battle vii ; final fantasy |

Master Chief vs Phoenix Wright I think might be my all time favorite blowout ever if it were to happen.

From what I've noticed, when 2 characters are going up in percentage,
the other 2 will be going down. I wish only Bowser could go up and the
other 3 all go down because this will be helpful for my Oracle
prediction. But this might only be possible if Bowser has an extremely
good day vote and the other 3 have horrible day votes. --- Luster Soldier - Popular at school. ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ |

Quite the contrary, I'm sure Master Chief would beat Kefka by well over 10k votes, and he'd probably be trailing in the first few minutes. I don't really consider that a swing, though, didn't Alucard only ever get to like a 500 or 600 vote lead on Sora? --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 1 - Raiden/Kain/Other Dude.
