Wow, SMB might beat Link's record before the ASV even starts. I like how second place is decided by under 1000 votes and I care more about SMB killing everything. --- http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g320/HowDisturbing/stayawhile.jpg Stay a while and breathe me in. |

From: KamikazePotato | #092 Thing is, I don't think SMB3 is terribly far away from SMB. and These games are arguably about as weak. Expecting 80% is silly imo. --- *is Dranze* BGE2 - Today: SMB > NG - Points: 6/8 Vote: SMB |

With the low votals, things look pretty grim for Duck Hunt right now.
If it can keep the lead under 1000 by the time the ASV starts, it might
have a chance. Ninja Gaiden by the hour: 1:00 | 50.73% 2:00 | 50.52% 3:00 | 53.61% 4:00 | 58.29% 5:00 | 55.06% 6:00 | 58.84% 7:00 | 57.18% 8:00 | 56.14% 9:00 | 56.31% 10:00 | 55.42% 11:00 | 53.06% Duck Hunt finally showing some signs of life with its best hour against NG since 2 AM. But at this point it's conceivable that DH could win the ASV and still not win any hours. --- Best Game Ever Contest II: Score: 4/8 Bracket: Super Mario Bros. > Duck Hunt --- Vote: Duck Hunt |

Oh yeah, it'll be interesting to see if Mario can keep 70% or not once
the ASV hits- I'm going to buck the trend here and say he'll come up
just short after the ASV and SNV. --- Best Game Ever Contest II: Score: 4/8 Bracket: Super Mario Bros. > Duck Hunt --- Vote: Duck Hunt |

lol Mario can't even beat the same game he's packed with compared to Zelda and Donkey Kong.

Yeah, I have a feeling Mario will lose the ASV because he is even more
dominant with Europe and the morning. He might win it, although 75% is
completely impossible.....72% would be a big stretch. --- Best Game Ever Contest II: Score: 4/8 Bracket: Super Mario Bros. > Duck Hunt --- Vote: Duck Hunt |

what the hell votals increase I don't know how you guys have been posting here, but I haven't been able to connect to gamefaqs all morning.

definitely explain for the low votals if there were sporadic connection
issues with the site. Now all seems to be good and running though. No NG! --- 6/8 points - The Best. Game. Ever 2009 Contest NP: Super Mario Bros. > Ninja Gaiden | http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=4 |

NG's got this. For those who remember the NES-VC poll, Duck Hunt didn't
make an attempt at any comeback or ASV-surge there. Now in a poll with
SMB, it stands to reason it's not going to overturn a ~1,000-vote
deficit with such low percentages without some MAJOR cooperation from
NG. Coming back so strong against Donkey Kong was five years ago,
one-on-one, and a miracle we have rarely seen since...and DH still lost
(damn you, DK!). This just isn't the same situation, and the trends
have likely changed. --- Prototype Shorthand, do you speak it?! |

We're closing in on 1000 now. It's not really comparable, but at this time (11:45) in its 2004 match, Duck Hunt had 44.82% against Donkey Kong, whereas today it has 46.17% against Ninja Gaiden. It was trailing by 2919 then; today it trails by 990. --- Best Game Ever Contest II: Score: 4/8 Bracket: Super Mario Bros. > Duck Hunt --- Vote: Duck Hunt |

| I'm going to laugh when Duck Hunt does nothing with the ASV, or makes a marginal increase. This match is following Hayabusa trends pretty closely. Not a chance that NG chokes the ASV as bad as DK did |
