Just checked my bracket and I noticed I'm all the sudden within 99.7226
percentile. Wow, I've been hanging around in 95% ever since Shadow
bombed and I generally butchered every match in 1st division
(Marth/Kefka... in round 2 anyone?). Now I seem to have Snake >
Cloud, which I think isn't the majority pick on the leader board, at
least not by much. Could I make an epic come back and get on the board
just when it "counts"?! Go Snake!! |

Kirby has a threshold confirmed! Seriously, leading Cloud for an hour
is awesome! I'm sad I missed it! Glad to see Snake is in front, though
I doubt it'll last much longer. Man, going from struggling to beat Seph
to struggling to beat Cloud. Great world we live in.

Hey after all these years me getting killed in this contests,I was in
the leaderboard for 4 days,but I forgot to calculate the simpliest
thing:RSFF.Yeah that is why I had Link>Mario and
Cloud>Sephiroth.Well next time I will remember this...And about
today I believe Cloud can do this. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |

To all the people saying Kirby voters are dumb for not voting Snake: we don't give a **** about Snake. See that's what I'm talking about! Glad you admit it though And wow, Snake hanging around even with the morning? Sephiroth must really be hampering Cloud's trends. Snake still looks like he's defying gravity here, but you've got to figure if he keeps nursing his lead Crono-style he's got a shot here. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

Yeah, surprised to see Snake still going even with Cloud after Cloud
was able to stall him as early as the second hour. Snake's lead is
larger than Crono's at this time, and uh....Snake is definitely better
than Crono with the ASV, right? Cloud should be better than Vincent
too, but if this goes like Crono/Vincent, Snake wins. I'm thinking
Cloud is a lot better than Vincent with the ASV though. --- Crono's quest to beat Link: Link vs. Crono vs. Mario vs. Samus |

Snake still ahead, but he looks like he's not gonna have much more than
700-800 votes to work with at most. However, if Cloud only does as well
with the ASV as he did in the morning, that MAY be enough. FFVII's second night vote is sick though. But when it comes to rallying, Snake can do it. Ask Sephy! --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Temporarily Sidetracked |

For the record, Snake won the morning vote by 17 votes. Last round,
Snake slowly went down over the course of the match, and Cloud dipped a
bit here during the DSV and went back up in the ASV timeframe. That
match was a Saturday though, so the trends aren't necessarily true to
what will happen here. Second night vote was Cloud's best and Snake's
worst time, by the way. Snake's current percentage on Kirby: 56.80% Big Boss's round 1 percentage on Kirby: 56.66% Might be close! --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Temporarily Sidetracked |

Solid Snake vs. Naked Snake would probably cause over half the voters
minds to explode due to the fact that they are two different entities. --- hmm well then |

I figured Snake proved he was stronger than both of them last round.
43% on Cloud is better than Samus has ever done, and based on Mario's
performance yesterday, he seems to have lost a step on her as well. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Temporarily Sidetracked |

Whoa, Snake still ahead by 500 votes after the night and morning vote?
Impressive - he might hold onto this. Cloud's ASV will probably let him
mount a comeback, but I'm not too sure how much better it'll be if he
wasn't able to do much during the morning. Snake just gotta hold on and
he's got this. --- http://i33.tinypic.com/2s0xn3o.gif |

I dunno if he outright proved it, but that performance on Cloud made me
stick him in the Mario/Samus/Snake level (where the only thing certain
is a Mario SFF win over Samus). That match seemed pretty legitimate
with two weak, neutral entities and all. --- Yoblazer: http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/3699/thegamefaqsticketxr8.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

For what it's worth: 1) Solid Snake got 43.14% on Cloud last round in Solid/WCC/Cloud/Mewtwo. 2a) Mario got 43.35% on Sephiroth last year in Seph/Fox/Mario/BB last year*. 2b) Mario got 41.4% on Sephiroth in Seph/Mario/Link/Vincent last year**. 2c) Mario got 43.92% on Sephiroth one-on-one in 2k5. *acknowledge that Fox was also in the match, plus it was sprite-round. **acknowledge that Link and Vincent were each in the match as well. Solid may very well beat Mario. You can't COUNT on it, per say, but I think Solid's doing about as well on Cloud as Mario did on Sephiroth in multiple matches gives him some leeway in case Mario could sap Solid's SSBB-support. --- NRT winners: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong Country 2 Remember these games! |
