So how much of a lead does Boss needs before you feel that she's safe?

At least 500.

Hmm, that's somewhat encouraging. Here's hoping Drake can keep Boss from building up past more than a couple hundred, as I don't expect him to carry the ASV overwhelmingly.

I'm hating this, on one hand i want the boss to pull clear so that i can secure the points, but at the same time my oracle pick for The boss has her winning by a slim margin, curses.

He should get the ASV based solely on how recent Uncharted 2 is. How decisively is debateable, but given how terrible all non-Snake MGS characters are with it, I'd say decisively enough.

Why do I have the feeling that this match is going to be ruined by the MGS cheat brigade?

Like I said before, these day matches have been getting much higher vote totals than the night matches, which tells me that a lot of people who normally vote at night are voting in both matches. That could help The Boss counteract whatever advantage Drake gets from the ASV, which I don't think will be a lot. The Boss's day vote isn't as bad as some people think.

There isn't much better than that.

Also, man, people hatin' on The Boss' day vote. She ain't Kefka, you know.

Hmm...actually, that would be interesting. Who would you take between Boss and Kefka?

It is too early to call it. You never know what the ASV will be for Drake. That said, it is looking bleak, and it is even bleaker for my betting topic pick of Drake by 4 points :-/

That would be silly if we had a character with a good ASV.

But we don't.

HaRRicH | Posted 1/19/2010 9:28:31 AM | message detail

The Boss looks likes she's going to take us into the ASV in a good position. I expect Drake to improve with the ASV, but certainly not dominate it. I figure these first three hours are crucial for her to win the rest of the match.

Don't want to call a favorite yet though.

Done that and damn, it really is better. Don't think Drake could win it anyway, but it'd be down to a couple of votes.

Definitely concerned with my Altair > Liquid vote now... as well as Ezio > Zelda.

This seems to be the standard the last few contests for me, one or two bad matches early, then claw back in it, get my name on the leaderboard then near the end one bad pick ruins you due to how heavily the contest is weighted towards getting your later picks right.

Lightslayer987 | Posted 1/19/2010 9:29:26 AM | message detail

Leon I know you love to say how bad Drake is with the asv, but do you not expect Drake to at least cut into the lead with the asv?

Drake is doing what he needs to right now if he's going to make a run with the ASV. He's gotta keep Boss's gains low.
