It's still too early for most people in Europe... It's the weekend after all and people will sleep late... But even if it were a weekday, it would still be too early...

I don't think I ever did, which is weird considering Bacon sent me a message personally confirming my address.

Granted, I could have missed it.

Not liking how this looks so far... Link under 80%, really? Non-weekend night matches will probably be completely borked.

You can't really blame this performance on being in the weekend. A blowout of this proportion isn't going to change much even in the day. Link in a 24 hour setting would probably finish with 82%.

The current performance has nothing to do with it being on a weekend... but it will even out by the time the match ends. If this were on a weekday I would not be surprised if Link ended with 80% though. We'll see.

Call me crazy, but I think Link might take this first GameFAQs CB match-up.

If some of this really is Link getting anti-voted (say what you will, but few people expected him to finish under 80%), Chief better start worrying.

Lopen | Posted 1/16/2010 2:37:17 AM | message detail
Also if this is Link getting anti-voted this is a completely different group than those who anti-vote Chief, so I wouldn't take it to mean much. Doesn't necessarily mean that the anti-vote is stronger, just that unrest is building around the unbeatable Link.

So the next match apparently starts at 10:30pm for me, so it's a good thing that it's Saturday! I live in Delhi, though I am trying to get my parents to move to Britain.
LinkMarioSamus | Posted 1/16/2010 5:01:13 AM | message detail
Sorry for the double post, but I must confess that I left Liquid Snake beating Vivi in my bracket!

However, call me stubborn, but I still think Phoenix Wright will beat Jecht. I can estimate Jecht to be worth 30% on Ganondorf and Phoenix Wright to be worth 35% on Bowser, and I think the latter is the stronger measure. Jecht has been in a contest before, too (yeah it was as a dorsal fin, but still!).
Redtooth | Posted 1/16/2010 5:32:37 AM | message detail
I'm actually surprised how many people took PW over Jecht. I think Jecht will 'bomb', but he's got to 'bomb' quite a bit to fall below Pheonix...

Not that I didn't take PW myself...
