Mario Kart still leading but Metroid cut into its lead a bit there.

So how do you think the night vote will go for this match?

If Round 1 was any indication, it will go to Super Metroid slightly.

Sorry didnt see the vote lead difference in the last update.

Either way Mario Kart isnt pulling away fast and from what you guys have told me, Metroid gets strength at night, so you think it can make a comeback if SMK doesn't pull away soon enough?

Unfortunately for SMK, From 8:04 to the end of the match in Round 1 was Metroid gain of 116.

Metroid didn't start pulling away with the night until 9 PM, they were both still struggling with each other until then.

...I think everyone's giving up on Super Metroid way too early.

Even if we did a direct time comparison from Round 1 to Round 2 which I find silly. These two updates in Round 1 were SMK cuts of 26. These two updates now SMK hasn't even gained that much.

SMK may well win, but winning 2 updates in a row means Super Metroid is doomed? What?

Oh yeah, I'm really inspired by a +2 gain from SMK right there. Yes, it's 3 in a row right now, but this is overreacting right now. It's like everyone's forgotten what happened last time. This isn't over for either game yet.

PartOfYourWorld | Posted 5/13/2009 6:01:23 PM | message detail
I'm expecting similar relative percentages, but MKII being much stronger than Phantasy Star should bring everyone's actual percentages down. Basically, I'm guessing Sonic 2 and MMX are pretty interchangeable, with maybe a slight edge to Sonic.
