Chief is actually trying now, is he? It's probably too late, as incoming votals will only decline, but I suppose the Nintendo second night vote is really bad, so....yeah, I can't see Kirby losing this one.

I'd say Chief is going to drop off towards the end of the poll, but Kirby should drop off just as much, if not moreso.

Anyways, this brings an interesting question: Zero vs Master Chief. People laughed at me when I said I'd take Zero after Chief's run last year. I think it safe to say that I was 100% right about the format not mattering.

You think the Chief that lost to Subby would be this close to Kirby?

red sox 777 | Posted 11/1/2008 2:29:23 PM | message detail
I'd take Zero over MC too- he finished only a little lower than Kirby did against Luigi in 2006, and Megaman looked as bad as he's ever looked that year. Magus/MC is a match I want to see, or rather I don't want to see, as I think the result would probably be that Magus gets a lead of several thousand and then gets blown away with the ASV setting a new record for biggest choke ever.

Chief still has to beat somebody of note 1v1 before I'll trust him. I took Sub-Zero over Chief in 2k6, yet last year seriously considered taking Chief to the final eight last year. Chief may be this close to Kirby, but he was also 40% on Crono in 2k5. That didn't stop Chief from dropping 4% on the weakest Crono ever the next year. The guy can always look good when he doesn't need to pull 50% to win, but just because he pulls half of 60% of the vote, doesn't mean he'll pull half of the remaining 40%.

Well if you measure by his strongest updates, then of course it looks like Chief could make it. But he's going to be getting as many of the stall-type updates as the large cuts. But he just got a 52 vote cut right now! LTTP Dark World Theme seems to be working.

Well the pink puffball seems to be dodging the chief's attempts to take back the lead but he might run out of dodging space if this keeps up.

Looking at tomorrow's match what do people have against Riku's pic? Dante looks set to take 1st and Leon is shown to be good enough to probably get 2nd.

The only thing that might shake that match up is Hogger, will he flop this time or can Albion muster another grand WoW rally like he did in the first round to kill Ramza and Laharl?

I'm thinking that it will be Dante>Leon but Hogger might shake things up.

What are your predictions?

I can tell you myself, my rallying won't effect the main result. It may get Hogger a few more percentage and possibly fight Riku for third, but no way is he getting up there with Dante and Leon

The king of the day vote has cut 411 votes off of Kirby's peak lead. King of the day vote indeed. Sora > MC with the day vote. He was ripping Squall to shreds at this point.

Votes per hour needed for MC comeback: 317.3
Votes cut in the last hour by MC: 179 (Almost exactly as many as the previous hour)

Squall as you said yourself, is weak at day though. Kirby isn't.

At this pace he should get within 1000 tho!

People need to stop overrating Master Chief's day vote. In the Nintendo spectrum Kirby probably has one of the stronger day votes and Master Chief isn't that far ahead when it comes to day votes. IMO he'd probably go even with Sora.

But that IS a bad day vote in Big Boss. Sora gained nearly 5500 votes on Yoshi from the halfway point of the match to the end.

Yoshi has a better day vote than Big Boss, and there's no arguing that.

Momentum guys; Sora was already gaining on Yoshi and just got an even bigger push, Master Chief had to stop Big Boss's gains and then make gains himself.
