Can you make a new line graph that shows the number of votes a character gets between updates, rather than their percentage? Maybe allow someone to cut off the first 10 minutes or so to make the graph easier to read.

Sandbag has the lead, but he's slowing down as expected. They'll probably go even for a while, and Magus will be down by around the same amount Frog was down against Axel going into the final hour. Let's go CT Night Vote!

Axel peaked at 329 at 10:45ish. Sandbag is looking to reach that point by by 9:30ish. Sandbag is expected to fall a lot harder than Axel, but he's going to have a larger lead.

LeonhartFour | Posted 10/16/2008 6:14:23 PM | message detail
I still can't get over how I tricked Bacon into using a toy pic.

feels good man


It's okay. Ceej knowingly used an action figure pic of Tidus against Ganondorf in 2003. Either way, it looks good.

By the way, is that Auron pic even official? I've never seen anything like that ever.

Ratchet looks awesome, Sephiroth is Sephiroth, Tifa looks good.

Ocelot got what he needed, Jill got...Marvel vs. Capcom?

And man, why did Bacon decide that ultra-zoomed in pics are the way to go here? Looking at this pic makes me uncomfortable because it feels like they're right in my face!

Also, kinda weird that we were unable to post at the moment of truth when Sandbag actually took the lead. It's up 280 votes with about an hour or so left to cut. Magus isn't dead yet, but man, I didn't actually think Sandbag could pull it off. Magus = Kuja LOL

Seriously though, even if Sandbag gets through, I don't see it advancing again. Something tells me it doesn't have the static fanbase of the Block or the Cube. Even if it did, 25% or so is a lot lower than Block anyway, so it'll be in danger of getting eliminated.

Huzz, boards finally back up! That would have really ruined the Oracle if they had stayed down much longer.

I'm not so sure the Bag drops off harder than Axel with the second night vote... KH seems more after-school oriented than SSB.

So....

You've all failed massively, I see.

It's been fun, but in the end, what's the point.

Even Cloud > Link was possible this year, but I guess that's not nearly as exciting as jokes.

Meh. I'm pretty much done. Wake me when all that's left is actual characters.

Let's wait an update or two to see if that's a fluke or a trend. If it's a trend, Magus is in good shape.

And the last couple of hours will be rally fest. Good times.
