Hmm, Red/MMX (assuming he holds on here) will be a day match. Well, he better outdo Mudkip's 40% on MMX.

Ocelot has been hemorrhaging Europe % for a while now! Only a matter of time...!

His lost in Europe is his gain in North America.

In RBY/MGS Round 2, MGS finally passed RBY around 5 AM, promptly lost its small lead around 7 AM, then took back the lead with the DSV at 10:30. Yesterday, the weekend day vote started around 8 and then really picked up steam by 10. At this point, I like Red to win it.

What makes you guys so certain that Red has it now? If anything this is the end of the Power Hour for Red.

Now its Ocelot's turn to build up.

Because it's the weekend. All the trends are diluted to hell.

Yeah, I noticed Link started to rebuild his % with four hours to go. If Red is given that much time, there's not much hope for Ocelot.

If Ocelot can start cutting right away, yeah, he starts looking good. But if Red can drag this out for another hour, hour and half, which I think he will, then by the time Ocelot finally catches up to Red the sun will rise and Red will pass the old man.

Although I'd say the weekend day match is probably the biggest example of trends you'll see in this 12 hour contest though.

red sox 777 | Posted 1/16/2010 10:00:17 PM | message detail
It's not certain. I feel fairly comfortable here though, because Nintendo characters generally finish pretty close to their power hour percentages, after losing a lot overnight and gaining it back during the day- they up end higher more often than not, in fact. And on the weekend, where you are at noon is typically not far below where you finish. MGS has a horrible morning vote.

Those MGS/RBY trends make it look like this will end pretty close though.

Ocelot has to come alllllllll the way back, then build up enough of a lead to hold off what could be a good morning vote. Not liking his chances here, but hey it's only one point.

Hey redsox, how about some Crono/Vincent comparisions!

He'll probably do them backwards to show you that Red can still get 65%.

Red closes the power hour with a 486 vote lead.

Prediction: Red wins the next hour by a small margin, and then Ocelot wins the 2-3 hour by a small margin. Ocelot takes the lead right around 7-8, then Red blasts him away with the morning vote.

I just don't trust Ocelot to make a comeback.

Looking at Ocelot's trends in 2007 and 2008, he doesn't even have a great night vote. He actually DROPPED from his Power Hour percentage. But then again, he was facing Cloud in 2007, and everyone drops facing Cloud at night. No excuses in 2008 though.

It's a good thing Crono's not going to be in any close night matches this year. I missed out on a lot of sleep the last two times he battled with Vincent.

Ocelot can still win this. The Power Hour JUST ended, this was not unexpected from me. It'll be a close finish, real close.

XFD at all the people calling this within the first 10 minutes of the match though. Jesus Christ....
