How did Kratos compare to Kirby last year anyways? Maybe we can use that somewhat to figure out Altair`s and Marth`s trends. --- http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u205/MapleMasta/IkeClimbers2.jpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDaGWrPcjb8 |

I'd agree with the Kratos comparison insofar as they're both new
characters that are big "casual" draws. Altair's not a Sony character,
though -- if anything, he's pulling more from the 360 base. --- six bullets. more than enough to kill anything that moves. |

Whoa there Altair. Don't do too much better than Marth, now. |
vcharon | Posted 10/20/2008 9:46:06 PM | message detail |
Darn, he loses back the votes he got and then some. Still, just needs
to keep it close enough and that'll be good enough I think... --- :> |

Yeah, I goofed the Sony thing. That residual AC exclusive on PS3 never
left me. I'll be talking about Lightning and the PS3 once she's in the
contest >_> --- :> |

That's alright Altair - just limit him to tiny draws and stalls while making the occasional cut. The sun will rise soon... --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

Looking at the Kratos and Kirby day votes last year... at this point,
Kirby was at 24%, and never went above 24%... but kratos was at 27% at
12:45, and went up to 32% --- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/RyanSaotome/rydia.gif http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/Albion+Hero.png |

Yeah... that`s definitely gonna hurt. Marth almost had 700 on Duke at
one point and the guy ripped it all down and built a 100 of his own
before the day showed up. --- http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u205/MapleMasta/IkeClimbers2.jpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDaGWrPcjb8 |
trannyscience | Posted 10/20/2008 9:55:25 PM | message detail |
it's a deep night vote. Duke will get that again here, but it's not as powerful because it's a weekday. alternatively, Altair will get the opposite come daytime. Duke's in great shape to win this though. --- xyzzy http://users.tpg.com.au/112358//85454546braidav.gif |

That coulda just been a fluke though or duke rallying or something...
it just seems like a weird time for all the duke fanboys to come out of
the woodwork --- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/RyanSaotome/rydia.gif http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/Albion+Hero.png |

paraboxx | Posted 10/20/2008 9:56:17 PM | message detail |
Huh. Altair continues demolishing Marth, but has actually stopped cutting Duke. That's...about as good as I can hope for, at this point. Keep it up, I guess! |

For as much as a lot of the joke-stuff sucks in this contest, it's got
a LOT of great things going for it so far...and we're barely halfway
done. If Duke wins, that may make it even better. Come on, king of the cliche. --- NRT winners: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong Country 2 Remember these games! |
ZFS | Posted 10/20/2008 9:59:10 PM | message detail |
The bigger point of interest is the day vote there -- Altair's gonna
have some fun with that. Depends on how big a lead Duke has before
morning, though. Could see it going either way at this point. --- six bullets. more than enough to kill anything that moves. |

He looked pretty decent from 3-6 last year: http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/images/poll_graph.php?matchnum=2893&type=1&seconds=60&max=0 http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/images/poll_graph.php?matchnum=2910&type=1&seconds=60&max=0 Not as good as that 1st round bump this year, but I don't think it's a fluke --- The Rye - The one and only... http://www.thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=3 |
smitelf | Posted 10/20/2008 9:59:31 PM | message detail |
Duke looks most likely to take first, and Altair looks most likely to
take second. All three serious contenders in this match (lol Lucario)
are fairly close in strength, i.e. low 20s against BL. --- Official Queen ***** of the Universe! Biden/Obama...er, I mean Obama/Biden '08! |
