Or is Vivi totally out of the question? I don't think there's very much that "totally out of the question" applies to in this format. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

yeah, this looks like Hayabusa's match to lose. Xbox is usually better in the afternoon than the morning, too. --- xyzzy "Man...tranny gets bored, the rest of us suffer." -satai |

Power Hour seems to be his worst time. Mega Man had a bad morning vote, but he managed to recover the rest of the day, especially in that second night vote. LOL Olimar's second night vote. Yesterday's stats: Mega Man – 50.00% Nero – 31.94% Banjo – 20.60% Captain Olimar – 18.34% And whoa, I really didn't expect Hayabusa to be within reach of Zero. I know he impressed last year and all, but Zero didn't do that badly himself, especially against Crono in round 2. That 63/37 match from 2005 just kept me from even considering Hayabusa to win here, and he's got a great shot at it. I expected Pit to beat DeDeDe, but the king penguin has done pretty well for himself. And whoever said that this was going to be Kid Icarus + A little Brawl...man, that's a ridiculous notion. Kid Icarus + A little Brawl would have Pit around 7-8% right now. Seriously, he'd be extremely pathetic (as in, worse than Olimar) if he didn't get a lot from Brawl. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: CATS, Nathan Drake, Yoshi |

Yeah, Brawl still means a lot... and Hayabusa apparently did a fair
share of slicing in the night? Yeah, failing to see how Zero withstands
the after-school torrent. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

By the way, whoever takes second place will set a record for highest
percentage by 2nd place in this format, barring some huge drop by Zero
or Hayabusa. And in case you were wondering, Balthier currently holds that record with 33%. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: CATS, Nathan Drake, Yoshi |

Zero won the night by about the same margin as he won the Power Hour.
Hayabusa basically turned that margin around with the before school
vote. Zero's got about 6 hours or so to build up his lead because
Hayabusa's gonna be comin' with the ASV. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: CATS, Nathan Drake, Yoshi |

Yeah, he's not even putting up a fight now. Ryu H is hardly anything
special with the DSV - Zero's finally developed Mega Man trends, it
seems. Shame that we had to wait until that crew was reduced to this before we got to see X in the contest. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

Do you think CjayC and Allen had long AIM debates on whether or not to
allow MMX? Like they've always had conflicting opinions on the matter. Hmm And Ryu takes another 25 off the lead. --- How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? "You're...the ****!" - Otacon to Snake, MGS4 |

Zero looks like he's doomed for sure here. Maybe he'll surprise, but
he's really looking like he'll choke up the lead in the next couple of
hours, before Ryu's most dreaded time of the day really is. So which ends closer... Ryu/Zero or Pit/Dedede? --- :> |
| Karma Hunter | Posted 10/6/2008 6:47:22 AM | message detail |

Pit should also make a killing with the ASV as well (yes, even compared to Dedede), so I'll say Zero/Ryu. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |
| Your_God | Posted 10/6/2008 6:54:08 AM | message detail |
| As much as I love Zero, he's as good as done. I'm not going to pretend like I know what's the trend but with simple logic you can see with how loosely he held the night vote he is not going to gain much of a lead before the ASC. and with the ASC Ryu will dominate. |

Duke and Falcon moving on and Ryu > Zero (if this trend holds), but
then I do things like taking Geno to move on with Bowser and not taking
L-Block to move on from his match. --- ~FFDragon. (at Work !!) The Cream of Resident Evil Fanboyism. |

Hmmm, I'd think Pit would get more of the ASV than DDD, since I was under the impression he was really popular in Brawl. Also Ryu's ahead by 52 now. Looks like both matches could well be over. --- http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g320/HowDisturbing/stayawhile.jpg Stay a while and breathe me in. |

regardless of whether Ryu beats Zero or not, Ryu will not make it though round to. Round 2 till be Snake > Zero. Zero is only losing now because pit and dedede are stealing a small margin of votes.

Ryu: is it his 4way destiny to make upsets in Round 1 and lose in the
