It is nice to see two behemoths of the industry going at it like this, even if I don't like either and it is being affected by SFF a fair whack.

Anyway, to 72 now.

Thanks to the Frog Mario pic, SMB3 is showing CT-like trends today. Clearly that has to apply to the vote-stuffing near the end as well!

Mario was a master of close matches long before Frog ever set foot in a contest. And SMB3 showing CT trends is hardly surprising when they had very even trends back in their 2004 match!

It would suck if the poll glitched up and lasted slightly longer than midnight. A match from last contest lasted about an extra 15 minutes because of a glitch:

Based on the last half hour, Zelda won't take the lead. Based on the last hour, it should take the lead with about 10 minutes to go.
