MGS just died there.

Kind of like the last time it tried to take the lead...

I don't think so, for ASV MGS > CT and SM64 > RBY IMO

RBY should still win unless MGS goes on a tear for a couple of hours.

You want to know how this match ends up, look at MGS/GS. GS' morning vote was a lot less potent than it's ASV.

Whoo MGS. Wasn't expecting much after last night but this is a pleasant morning suprise. And good to see FFVIII doing passable.
KamikazePotato | Posted 5/29/2009 7:02:20 AM | message detail
Yeah, but it's Morning Vote wasn't as strong as it's ASV. Not to mention MGS' Morning Vote being a little better than it's ASV as well. This is over.

Also, congratulations to FF8 for having the worst non-FF7 early vote I can remember! Wow.

Through the first round match, that means G/S/C isn't that far back from Chrono Trigger.

Man, the board reaction to GSC holding up during the board vote to CT would have been hilarious.

Personally I'd be surprised if Pokemon replicated it's power hour even in the after school hours. Then again I wouldn't have predicted it to stall this long either.

Like it has already been said, it's a repeat of yesterday's match. Well... Pokemon might not win by more than 1000 votes, but it'll win relatively easily.

Was the round 2 match on a weekend? Because from what I see MGS took more damage during the day and then actually stalled and went slightly up from 4 PM onwards. And I didn't see any huge Pokemon blow up that everybody fears.

FFXII's was pretty horrid as well.

But yeah, MGS will probably lose this in the ASV. I'd love it if it could hold out and win though. This contest needs a crazy match that doesn't make sense.

Well, MGS going even with freaking Pokemon in the BSV time block is crazy to me!

Nintendo is good in the morning, but it's almost always better in the ASV.

Actually, in RBY's first round match, it did worse with the morning vote than it did with the night vote. It has a good night vote for a Nintendo game. Its trends are pretty even overall though. I don't expect RBY to start killing MGS with the ASV, though it should pull away.

Glad FFVIII at least made a decently respectable number. Probably finish around 17.50% here.

MGS and RBY are both at 37% on OoT right now. That seems like a lot more than they should be getting.

We don't need an excuse to use Tiger Woods here, folks!

A little stronger? I don't know if anyone would've pegged MGS at 37% on OoT. I don't know if anyone would've had it escape a doubling. This is SSBM on FFVII stuff here. Not a good show for OoT here, considering FFVII got 65% on Mario 64 and everyone last night said they'd take it over MGS.

I guess you could make the argument that RBY is draining OoT, but MGS/FF8 certainly have the potential to be hurting each other... and that wouldn't account for RBY's straight up percentage on OoT. FF7 wins this round decisively on the expectations, I think most will agree.
