I wonder if Allen will check for cheating this year.


Since every result actually matters in 1v1s, I doubt it.

To my recollection, the only cheat checking he did in 4-ways was for Battletoads in BGE 2009, and it wasn't even close to winning.

crono's got several jokers up his sleeves, but man using all your trump cards in round 1 is still embarassing. Sports teams don't usually use their A Team in round one of a cup competition if the opponents are 2-3 leagues below.

I don't think Crono will actually lose this, but this match and Yoshi's were pretty much exactly what I was hoping for in regards to their round 2 match. If Crono really is this vulnerable in a day match, then maybe a more established character like Yoshi can finish the job!

Crono can't rely on a rally tonight.

Vincent had a lead of 202 on Crono last year when the SNV started and Crono was able to dismantle that. I'm not so sure how large of a lead Missingno would need on Crono to survive the final 2 hours (the SNV). 300 would probably be safe for Missingno, factoring in that Missingno might benefit from some last minute rallies.

And I think we've already seen some rallying or something. Votals by update:

1175, 1130, 1083, 1017, 959, 1051, 1002

Compare with yesterday:

929, 889, 844, 806, 782, 781, 751

Not sure if there's really anything strange there.

You might want to compare that to Price/MMX. That's the only other day match I know of which has exceeded today's match with the amount of votes during the board vote alone.

Wow there.

Crono has to start cutting NOW if he wants to make this one look close. This match is definitely in Missingno's hands now...if he doesn't fall off, it's lol Noble Nine.

I'll say it again, if Crono does lose a Terrific Ten is feasible as long as Missingno beats Yoshi, which he should.

Now if the Noble Nine is broken, I say we cut Crono, Mega Man and Sonic, and have the Spectacular Six. The rules will change to just being the generic "6 strongest characters" or possibly "only lose to eachother after 2006".

I am both disappointed and giddy at the same time.

Crono going down like this is somewhat funny.

It having to be a joke character is sad.

Maybe Saturday morning cartoons kept the kiddies occupied yesterday morning?

Though i'm sure there is rallying going on too... for both sides.

Lead over 200. This match is over. Crono loses. Now I can only hpe for a crazy Missingno bandwagon, allowing him to win this contest and make Crono the no 2 in this years x-stats.

Well then, that probably seems like a rally to me. This match may just be our highest day match in votals. Snake/Sephiroth or Samus/Cloud might be able to outdo that, but it's hard to say for sure.

Doesn't work that way, you should know that.

Mega Man lost to Crono, OUT.
Snake lost to Mega Man, OUT.
Mario also lost to Crono, OUT.
Cloud lost to Mario. OUT.
Sephiroth lost to Cloud. OUT.
Link also lost to Link. OUT.
Samus also lost to Mario. OUT.

The Super Seven have lost to Crono. DEAD.
