Starcraft is again the beneficiary of a perfect storm and circumstance. Can't see it losing with such a heavy split. Bleh.

Wow, FF9 is looking very nice early on. Maybe, juuuuuust maybe, it can stand up to FF8 and keep the SC dreams alive? (eh, who am I kidding)

OoT is doing very well as well, though some of that you've got to chalk up to HL disappointing like crazy. Still, it'll be doing nothing but rising from here on out, so it's definitely looking to impress here.

I'm calling Starcraft the favorite next round, which blows because it sure as heck doesn't deserve it. Start calling me crazy!

It will go up. This board generally hates on it.

But this board also isn't very pro FPS (look at Halo board vote for instance). Half Life isn't done yet

And that just shows why three-minute update calling it is even less reliable than a five minute one!

Eh, still think FF9 should take this.

Well FF9 slowed at the end of that update. I like it's chances though if it can start building up something soon and close it overnight though. Day won't be kind to it.

Given that FFIX and HL have the exact same trends, if FFIX starts building a lead it never drops it.

FF9 slowed down near the end of that, but Half-Life needs to prevent FF9 from going berserk overnight like FF8 did.

There's not really enough of a day vote on weekends for Ocarina to go berserk come morning, and there's a very deep night/Europe vote before that. It probably ends lower than where it is after the power hour.

I hope the next division is exciting, because I'm starting to lose interest in this contest already.

Round 1 was looking pretty terrible anyways, it's all turbofodder getting blown away and the usual suspects advancing. Aside from some unexpected performances (FFT bombing, Pokemon surging and DK resisting any choking) it won't be until later rounds that things really heat up.
