Replace OoT with GS, and maybe FFVI advances there. It's weaksauce these days. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

Curse you and your stall, LttP! SM64 needs to go on a tear now, or its probably finished. WHY must it lose? |

Well you gotta applaud Mario 64. Great show. Although i think Goldeneye should have won here. --- Playing: COD4 | Ninja Gaiden Black | Devil Summoner 2 Favourite game ever - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time |

Yeah
what the hell was that. Mario64 goes on a major cutting spree for like
an hour and suddenly decides it wants to start losing votes instead.

Its not like its doing worse... its just Lttp decided it wanted to start going up in % during the asv as well. It's doing worse - it hasn't broken 140 votes since the update before LttP gained 34. LttP is doing a little better, but it's really only going up because it's against two FF games and the sun is up. --- http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g320/HowDisturbing/stayawhile.jpg Stay a while and breathe me in. |

FINALLY! A new cut, and a good one to boot! Maybe SM64 has decided to put up a fight again! |
LeonhartFour | Posted 6/3/2009 2:09:46 PM | message detail |
Yeah, I think LTTP may hold here. Mario 64 had a good run at it, but it can't stall for this long and expect to win. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

LttP improved thehour from 23.11% to 24.39%. Mario 64 dropped the hour from 26.49% to 25.00% So technically, Mario 64 did a bit worse than LttP did better. But really, it's like they met 50. Hey, you drop 1.5% and then I'll raise 1.5% okay?! --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

That wasn't a good update for Mario. Fortunately, it was a terrible one for LttP. --- http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g320/HowDisturbing/stayawhile.jpg Stay a while and breathe me in. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 6/3/2009 2:16:20 PM | message detail |
Mario 64 gained 87 votes in the last hour. At that pace, it'll take the lead in slightly over 8 hours. It'd fall just short. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |
KanzarisKelshen | Posted 6/3/2009 2:17:27 PM | message detail |
WHOA THERE! 28 vote cut! Looks like Mario is going nuclear! |
hochiminhX | Posted 6/3/2009 2:19:20 PM | message detail |
28 vote cut =/= going nuclear Still what SM64 needs though assuming it can consistently do this. --- I will bury you. |
Janus5000 | Posted 6/3/2009 2:19:29 PM | message detail |
It could be noted that 82 of those votes were cut in the last 15 minutes. A projection based on the last 15 minutes, then, has it taking the lead at 7:30. Unrealistic, probably, but as long as it doesn't stall like mad again... --- http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g320/HowDisturbing/stayawhile.jpg Stay a while and breathe me in. |

...wow, that is annoying. So to actually go into something that might have some substance - which is stronger, SM64 or the SMW/SMB3 duo? The former implies CT >= SMW/SMB3, the latter implies that the Mario series outclasses every single Zelda not named OoT. --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

KanzarisKelshen | Posted 6/3/2009 2:21:08 PM | message detail |
Shush, you. Speaking of stalls makes LttP wake up and get votes, and that's not good for the SM64 fanboy inside me. |

Karma Hunter | Posted 6/3/2009 2:25:27 PM | message detail |
Which
is funny, because Mario 3's antics last match cost SMW a spot in the
finals if it's stronger than LttP (just the idea of that makes my head
spin, but the probability is undeniable at this point), and very
possibly an overall win for OoT. good job nintendo --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |
Janus5000 | Posted 6/3/2009 2:26:33 PM | message detail |
The former implies CT >= SMW/SMB3, the latter implies that the Mario series outclasses every single Zelda not named OoT. I could very easily buy the first of these. CT didn't look bad from what we saw of it if you take SM64 to be a beast (which should be obvious). It's probably not the same game it was in 2004, but I'd still have a hard time thinking it would lose to SMW or SMB3. Then again, SMW/SMB3 >= LttP isn't too unrealistic - both of them have looked scary this contest. In any case, all three of them should be very close. --- http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g320/HowDisturbing/stayawhile.jpg Stay a while and breathe me in. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 6/3/2009 2:29:20 PM | message detail |
By the way, GoldenEye's round 2 performance seems to imply that it's not that far behind Mario 64 and CT. Acceptable? --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

LeonhartFour | Posted 6/3/2009 2:41:27 PM | message detail |
9.36 votes per update to tie, if I'm doing the math correctly. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

Whoa, new massive spike for Mario. Probably won't matter, in the end, but at least he's finally passed the 700 barrier. |

What does OoT need tomorrow to match FFVII Considering OoT has a significantly weaker 4 pack tomorrow, at least 44%. I doubt it gets 40% though. --- I will bury you. |

SMB3 and SMW are equal. I say SM64 is equal to vote. If SM64 manages to pull the upset, I wouldn't be surprised to see all three Mario games even and fighting for second. Such a match would be awesome for me to watch as a Mario fanboy, a Nintendo fan, a contest observer, and a human being --- Wylvane's current main account. |

At
this point, does anyone but the people who are still voting for LttP
want it to win? Most people here seem to want SM64 to advance, for good
reason. |
