I wonder...

If Chrono Trigger DS makes Crono's Europe vote acceptable, that alone might boost him a % or two on BL. >_>

It would have to be a huge hit. Though maybe he'll go the same way as Snake.

So looks like it's going to be Link/Cloud/Vincent/Snake.

Crono's quest to beat Link:
This it it! Crono vs. Samus vs. Vincent vs. Pikachu
red sox 777 | Posted 11/14/2008 8:43:07 AM | message detail
Yeah, I don't think Crono is going to reach 700 here. 500, maybe. Although, Crono outperforming last year the most during the morning hours would seem to indicate he will similarly do well during the ASV.

At this point, Crono has 50.55% of Crono/Vincent votes. Last year he had 50.06% at this point, and pulled in 47.29% over the remaining time in the match. However, measuring from 4 AM onward, which is probably more indicative of how the rest of the match will go, Crono has 48.33% today and 46.44% last year. That projects Crono to get a little over 49% over the rest of the match, which would put him just short of a win here. Alternatively, we can try to gauge the ASV based on the 3-hour block of the BSV, which gives Crono an easy win, as it suggests Crono will get over 50% over the remaining time in this match.

Dammit, Crono. It looks like he's going to give up his lead as soon as the clock strikes 3.

LeonhartFour | Posted 11/14/2008 9:05:30 AM | message detail
Yeah, Crono's just gonna stall until 3 P.M., and then it'll be Vincent time.

For the record, Crono's morning votes and ASV periods have been relatively the same strength, but he still lost those times to Vincent. Could be really close here.

Seems like Crono's going to end up a bit better than last year as long as he doesn't get buried with the ASV... but that could be chalked up to random variation, if anything. It remains a bit harder for me to still maintain that I think he'd beat Vincent 1v1, but I do - and besides, I'll never have a chance to test the theory thanks to CT: DS!

At least Crono's looking consistent. He's lost each of the last 4 updates by 2 votes.

Also for the record, Vincent's ASV has been slightly worse than his morning vote, but nothing significant. The FFVII guys are pretty consistent once you get past the Power Hour.

I'd be very surprised if Vincent wins by more than 1000 votes.
Probably in the 500-750 range

Also I stopped rallying from 22:00 to 24:00 just to see how close MM could make it



lol these are the excuses you've started pulling out of your ass to try making people think you're legitimate? Pathetic.

And for the record, admission of outside rallying or vote stuffing has been considered illegal activities on this board for six years. If anyone went back and marked all of your posts from the last three stat topics or so, you'd be screwed whether you're faking or not. Which you are (anyone with an IQ over 50 could see that much), but that's irrelevant.

"OH LOL MY RALLYING DOESN'T WORK TODAY COR(h)NO ISN'T A PC CHARACTER, sorry i didn't say that before roflzzz"

If anything, Goose prefers rallying I'd believe because he gets more hits then normal, and thats the only point of the contest in the first place. Plus, rallied hits are people who aren't normal Gamefaq users who might start visiting the site after seeing it from the rally.

Besides, Rock is about the last person to accuse anyone of posting nonsense.

By the way, can you please spam me on AIM to mark messages for you, then curse me out and block me when I say no? It'll be like old times. Oh and remember to get overly pissed off at anyone not giving you information that you aren't supposed to know. Then we'll know the old addict himself is back in full force. Good job locking yourself out of an account to keep yourself from coming here, then coming back anyway :D

If you're going to tell someone they're stupid, make sure you can pass a first grade spelling test first. Prevents self-irony and such.

Yes, yes he is. It's nice to go up against the exact same character for last year and produce the same result, only this year there are no excuses. None of this "Link stole all the votes" nonsense.

tough to expect Crono to hold onto a 300 vote lead with the entire afterschool vote comin', but a pretty good show so far. maybe he can get a furious rally at the end or something.

Crono's been up 300 votes since 7am. I don't expect any real movement until Crono bombs with the afterschool vote. this is a good time for him.

think last year was a weekend, too.
