There are lots of matches we would have called obvious that turned out to be not so obvious after all, and those people who just fell off the leaderboard called those other non-obvious matches better than most.

even though their stregths may seem similar,people like Jade or Luke would easily double or triple Tim 1 on 1 just because they look much better

when no one knows you,the picture makes all the difference.
vcharon | Posted 10/7/2008 9:35:52 PM | message detail
That's probably without question. There are honestly not many people who would lose to Tim at this point.

Yeap, Soul, in the freakin power hour Fox is "only" losing by 20-30 votes an update. Power stall indeed.

I think we can just ignore Fox at this point.

Well, he was slowing the gains a bit, but it looks like Sora will continue with his 20/30 gains per update.

Dammit Fox!

Fox would need an absolutely huge night to hold off Sora. Like... 3000 vote lead at morning. Sora is the king of ASV

Yeah, not going to happen. Sora is continuing to extend the lead by the same type of margin each update.

In a weird twist of fate, Sora is doing best with the Nintendo Power Hour. But 10 minutes from now the real night vote kicks in, and Fox will make his move!

Who's with me?

...guys? GUYS?

As much as I like Fox, anybody thinking he had a chance here was deluding themselves. Sora got 45% on Mega Man.
Master Moltar | Posted 10/7/2008 9:57:14 PM | message detail
pssh most of us figured that

the fact is fox didn't win and therefore is a BIG LOSER and a huge LOL at everyone who picked him

Chris/Fox/Sora/TIM - Bracket: Sora > Fox - Vote: TIM (61/80)
red sox 777 | Posted 10/7/2008 9:58:27 PM | message detail
Fox will probably fall pretty far with the night vote. I think he can hold up fairly well with the day vote (that is, not lose too much ground to Sora- we just saw Brawl beat Ryu Hayabusa's ASV a couple days ago), but Fox is going to end substantially further behind Sora than he is now. I thought he could be doing better, but at least he's keeping it relatively close....an Ulti-sized blowout by the end of the match, probably.

Evvivan: Character Battle VII --- Score: 58/76 --- T-395 (187 way)
Bracket: Snake > Vivi --- Vote: Vivi
creativename | Posted 10/7/2008 10:02:37 PM | message detail
Some thoughts...

*Jinjo is going to do garbage, he's Sackboy Part II (though he should have a good board vote, and he should have more core strength since he's from an actual released game...he should finish with double digits). Sandbag on the other hand...

*I think Sandbag should be the fave over Magus now. Sonic's going to be eating too much percentage. And while it probably doesn't matter as anything but an indicator, I'm betting Sandbag will be the general bracket favorite over Magus.

*I agree with the theory that the Brawl-hype deboost is offsetting the MGS4 effect, and Snake is pretty much the same as before. I do still think the other MGS characters boosted.

*On a Snake vs. Samus match, which was discussed earlier - I have no clue who wins that. I disagree with anyone who's confident about either character.

Chris is really impressing me here; looks like he was indeed LFF'd by Pyramid Head. I think he can win some updates against Fox overnight

Yeah, I either flip a coin on Snake/Samus or take Snake out of mild favoritism (they're both two of my favorites).

Lol Tim, about to fall under 8% and probably will not regain it again.

I enjoyed Chris more when he was losing to Pyramid Head.

In any case, I think Pyramid Head might be the first case of rSFF we've definitively seen in these things from this performance. Jeez, Chris.
