Nintendo is awesome with the board vote right? And WW has BRACKETS? It'd be so awesome if Disgaea could take the lead tonight.

that's a pretty pathetic performance from Fire Emblem during the board vote. I expected more from this game, bad match for it or not.

Disgaea's doing really well.

Any thoughts of FFX topping Melee have just been boned, and with them, so has my bracket.

So far I've been right about an aweful lot. Wind Waker jobbing, Melee decreasing, and soon Barlw > Galaxy.

Shame I was wrong on so many other things and have a completely useless bracket.

It'd be something if Disgaea took a lead on WW overnight.

Of course, it's going to pull in approximately -5% in the day, but I guess it has a shot of leading if this isn't all board vote. And I don't think the board likes Disgaea much anymore.

*refreshes and sees WW up 100*

Hm, maybe not. It might be able to make some cuts, though.

not sure what this match says about Melee other than that it's strong. this is just the perfect pack for it to dominate.

Melee could hit like 54 by the end of it.

Not sure. Though Halo was the favorite for first, given the 47.46% who only got 1 point for Halo (partial points).

Fire Emblem isn't THAT obscure at this point. At the very least, it's a familiar name.

But Melee is the absolute worst opponent for FE.

BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 4/29/2009 9:12:01 PM | message detail
Looks like Melee was the board favourite (no surprise). Zelda should close the gap overnight and might avoid the doubling.

That in addition to Disgaea being over 10% means Melee has indeed dropped. Probably still top 20, but likely in that 15-20 range.

GTA3 was indeed the favorite for second amongst the casual bracket makers. Halo was the first, obviously, the only people that picked D2 for second were those that remember the Blizzard factor.

This is probably the easiest match in the first round. There's no need to support brackets.

Yes because having two other Nintendo games in the poll does nothing to Melee against an untested game.

Melee killing with the day vote means it's going to get socked overnight. There are few things with as bad a night vote as SSB. WW has a chance at avoiding the doubling.

And while I'm still mildly surprised at Disgaea... this is the biggest example of STF we've seen in this contest so far. That surprise is more than a bit tempered.

Disgaea is getting 15% on Melee, a Zelda and a piece of turbofodder. That's almost as good as Laharl got on Dante and TWO pieces of turbofodder.

And it has room to increase overnight as the Melee power hour dies off.

Melee probably finishes pretty close to where it ends the power hour. It's night vote is among the worst in the business, but its ASV is right up there with KH and Halo.

And uh.....SSBM.....don't go throwing away a good performance now!
