I'm surprised soft drink is doing so horrible. Its the only other term for it I've heard in my area.

Pop might even have a chance to reverse the loss it suffered to Coke last time around.

as you notice though, all the big population places call it soda; aka, why its winning. Kinda like how the electoral map can look like republicans easily win, but the democrats get the big population states.

But California is 3 hours behind where I live at (it's only 12:39 AM for me). So Soda should be running strong until almost 4:00 AM, when it should drop off big time when the dead zone arrives.

Coke/Pop will have a strong night vote while Soda tanks. In some countries Coke is so dominant that there are barely any other drinks.

Soda is still getting 150 vote gains on Pop easily. As for as the percent updates so, it's started to drop to 44% updates, although it did better on the last update with 48.91% update.

I'm betting tomorrow we will have "Favorite Soda" poll

I hope so, because there hasn't been one since 2002. That would be awesome, because Mountain Dew would bomb overnight.

Well, after almost 3 hours, Soda finally fell under 40% for its updates. It got a 37.50% update. It was fighting to maintain 40%+ updates prior to that.

oh wow 20 vote cut by coke on pop (yes im this bored atm)

Pop managed to gain 9 on the next update.

Pop died as well and lost the lead to Coke overnight. The lead change occured at 4:11 AM and Coke is up 1161 already. I see no chance at a comeback.

Another critics' blurb from me:

According to "Official" Nintendo Magazine, the best fighting game on a Nintendo console isn't a Smash game.

According to Nintendo Power (list back in 2005), Chrono Trigger, GoldenEye, Melee, Majora's Mask, and Final Fantasy VI all lose to...Super Mario Sunshine, and the former two lose to Soul Calibur II and Punch-Out!! Also Wind Waker beats every Mario game, including Smash stuff, and Zelda 1 is stronger than Super Mario World, and Resident Evil 4 only loses to Ocarina.

On Edge Magazine's Top 100 Best Games to Play Today list, Twilight Princess was 96th, Majora's Mask was 77th, Wind Waker was 23rd (despite the magazine acknowledging the truncated ending), A Link to the Past was 5th, and Ocarina of Time was 1st. Any questions? Oh, and Super Metroid was 16th, and Yoshi's Island was 10th, and Star Fox 64 was 98th. More questions?

Outside of North America Coke is really dominant in the pop buisness so it's not surprising that some people just refer to them all as coke.
