*raises a jug of water with lemon*

Not all of us have goblets!!!


Anyway, I'm not liking Portal's chances right now, though I'm looking more at HL2 and TF2 than the characters. Each of them dropped a little bit through-out the day and I don't really like the odds of Portal building a good lead overnight. This is assuming Bioshock can take advantage of the ASV (which certainly isn't guaranteed, though Big Daddy suggests it will).

Think there's any chance Steam will link to the match? I understand it did for WCC when it upset Mega Man.

Who's gonna take the day vote here anyway?

Sure, LBP will probably go up, but someone in the match has to benefit, too.

Although if MGS4 is like 2 and 3 more than 1, it should be rather steady throughout.

Not where it matters. I'm not afraid to dally on the side while you fear to let the board know your insecurities so you cling to your picks like life preservers, hoping they will shelter you from the board's critiscism.

Samus had a better year in 2004 than Mario while Mario had nothing new between the two contests, I don't see why Samus > Mario was a terrible pick, especially when people were going Samus > Sephiroth.

LBP being SFF'd wasn't guaranteed, and after what it did in the New IP-poll from January it wasn't the worst of picks. I never liked its chances, but I'll spare the hell I could give for some picks that actually deserve it. If MGS4 didn't smash it -- say, replace it with SSBB -- it'd be interesting to see how it would do here.

Vote totals are pretty bad so far. This is only the 4th match to end the Power Hour with less than 10,000 votes. The others were FFIV's match, and Sonic 1 and Sonic 2's matches.

Sonic is really bad at bringing in the votes, despite being so well known, for whatever reason.

I don't think LBP would be doing much better without MGS4. It might not be being more than doubled by Portal, but it would still stink up the place.

Portal has 53.30% on Bioshock right now. I'm guessing it stays around there through the night, and if Bioshock acts like a typical Xbox game, it won't really do much until the ASV, so Portal will have a pretty big lead by the time Bioshock can get anything going.
