When did Duck Hunt start its epic comeback against Donkey Kong anyway? Duck Hunt started it's massive vote shift from around 10-3. The last half when it started coming back was actually much less extreme of a vote shift than the previous hours had been, but it still kept increasing. --- "Keep in mind that I am making this proposal out of good will.

Fayt_Esteed (#116) Meta Knight is the day vote savior, just you watch! He'll get 20000 votes in the first hour of the day vote and will be doubling L-Block by the end of the match.

Even though Ryu should win this match, I almost cannot see L-Block
losing next round. And if that happens he's going to ruin the
Crono/Vincent rematch, then proceed to thrash Mario and Samus in the
quarterfinals. I think Link is our best shot at beating L-Block, due mainly to L-Block rallying not being as huge as last year in the finals (I find it difficult to see the whole net getting so worked up again for the finals), and also some L-Block anti-voting going to Link. In fact I think Link>L-Block is the most likely single outcome at this point in time. But L-Block has at least decent shot at repeating. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I kinda just assume people assume L-Block and Mudkip and the like are

And I have to bring this up again because apparently people aren't
getting it: This is still the weakest L-Block performance we've seen in
any round. Meta-Knight is looking AWFULLY GRIM right now (though he
only lost that last one by 59) but Crono/Ryu are looking good as ever

Why wouldn't you believe in joke character SFF, though? The Dog is clearly a joke character. *Nintendo fan finds the poll, sees two Nintendo characters, is now conflicted* *Guy voting for laughs finds the poll, sees two obvious joke characters, is now conflicted* Just makes sense to me.

Lopen (#126) Ammy would still hurt Crono and Ryu, Dog SFF or not (which is looking pretty damn obvious considering how their updates are going). Three characters with strength is where L-Block thrives.

I do believe in joke SFF which is why this concerns me a bit. A lot of people laughed at the idea though. I'd expect them to be pretty confident of L losing next round. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 1 - Raiden/Kain/Other Dude. Target: 48%. GAME FUEL. Believe |

Lopen | Posted 10/1/2008 1:45:26 AM (#123) I would also add that the Gordon Freeman vote-stuffing was HIDEOUS. I just don't make a big deal of it much these days because Bacon has more than proven he doesn't care. Just from the look of things, it looks like L-Block is going to go "small loss, small loss, SPIKE, small loss, small loss, SPIKE" all match. --- MY BROTHERS WILL NOT HAVE DIED IN VAIN!

Lopen | Posted 10/1/2008 1:47:54 AM (#126) Flat-out not true. He looked like crap in the first round last year, and only had a higher percentage than he does now because the competition was MUCH weaker. Laharl and Nathan Hale <<<<<<<<<<<<<< Meta-Knight and The Dog. The Block is pretty much stinking it up right now, and Ryu's chances of beating him are decent barring funny business. But Meta Knight looks completely and utterly dead. --- MY BROTHERS WILL NOT HAVE DIED IN VAIN! Now Playing: Final Fantasy 4 DS, Spore ~*ST*~ |

He was still pulling a full 3% higher than he is now, regardless of the
competition being weaker. And he's dropped more since the beginning of
the match. If he follows typical L trends he's going to finish well
below his "28% floor" this time around. That's the point. --- Master Chief's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 1 - Raiden/Kain/Other Dude. Target: 48%. GAME FUEL. Believe |

yeah you can stick a fork in meta-knight now. his only chance was at
least maintaining his % while ryu gained and l-block dropped, but he's
dropping just as fast in % as l-block is. he'll likely be under 20%
with l-block over 30% still at the morning. --- DQVIII LLG - level 1/6/10/19, before Captain Crow Brawl FC: 0344-9611-6716 |

In all fairness, Meta Knight had the same trends as L-Block in that
last update. If someone's cheating for L-Block, someone's cheating for
Meta Knight too. Their trends have kind of been matching up this match. --- "Keep in mind that I am making this proposal out of good will. I could just as easily toss you all out and take over the ship."--KOS-MOS |
