Looks like Crono is starting to make a serious comeback. I think he needs to make bigger cuts then these, though. --- http://cache-07.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/500x_lp2_x10_005.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

CT seldom loses close matches. Food for thought. |

5 vote cut. 13 actually. |

Question, any predictions of a some kind of timezone or whatevervote that could make Missingno get a sudden boost soon? |

Crono needs to cut 5.25 votes per update to tie. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

I
guess it does help that Missingno's US percentage is currently higher
than his percentage overall right now. Although Canada is dragging down
Missingno, which is bad. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

The
morning vote should be starting in Australia soon, and Missingno is
winning big there right now. But soon after that, the morning vote
starts in Asia where Crono is winning big. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

Hmm, that's not too much. Crono may be able to win this after all. --- "The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it." - George Bernard Shaw |

Ehh,
they were good, but not legendary status due to not being marquee
characters. I mean stuff like Crono/Mario, Crono/Vincent, aka. --- http://cache-07.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/500x_lp2_x10_005.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

Red/Ocelot
was pretty good, but this is definitely the best match so far this
contest. Whether it is legendary depends on whether it stays close till
the end. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

Finally, a percentage increase for Missingno. I knew that would have occurred eventually. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

Chaotic Mind | Posted 2/14/2010 12:22:15 PM | message detail |
And Missingno gains almost all those cuts back! I get the feeling this is going to be a stallfest for the next few hours. --- "The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it." - George Bernard Shaw |
Sonic_Factor | Posted 2/14/2010 12:22:35 PM | message detail |
ken/wesker is still the best match so far, this one holds more meaning though --- Nominate Red XIII for the Character Battle VII! He's the Lion with a fire tail from Final Fantasy VII. |
Chaotic Mind | Posted 2/14/2010 12:23:40 PM | message detail |
He went from +375 to +348. Is that really a huge drop? I don't look at votes per update often enough to really know. --- "Flash runs alongside balefire watching marshmallows stop existing" - War |
The n00b Avenger | Posted 2/14/2010 12:23:48 PM | message detail |
The final margin of victory will probably be like 400-500 votes. This could be surprisingly boring --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
Cyclo_Reaper | Posted 2/14/2010 12:24:20 PM | message detail |
From: Sonic_Factor | #325 By far. Ken/wesker just decided who'd be Ganons fodder for round 2. This match could mean who is the winner of the entire contest. --- http://cache-07.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/500x_lp2_x10_005.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

Yeah, something just feels wrong about Chrono Trigger of all games making a comeback during the da. |
ShatteredElysium | Posted 2/14/2010 12:25:56 PM | message detail |
Well not huge
but definitely significant. Was 391 the update before that too so it's
like over a 10% drop off in votes in the course of 10 mins. --- Oracle Challenge 2k10 ~~~ Individual: 4th ~~~ Team: 6th (Partner BZer0) |

Weekend day = nightish trends --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
red sox 777 | Posted 2/14/2010 12:26:35 PM | message detail |
The
way to think about this is to think what percentages Crono needs to get
in the upcoming hours to win. Right now, he only needs to average about
50.5% over the rest of the match. If he's getting 50% now, just
following normal CT/Nintendo trends will give him that. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

No,
the weekend day vote starts up around 8 AM, picks up in earnest by 9
AM, and starts tailing off past 3 PM. Past 6 PM we get into the SNV,
which always existed on weekends, even in 24-hour matches. For
Nintendo, generally you adjust those times a bit earlier, and for KH or
Xbox, you adjust it later a bit. The Xbox SNV is as good as its day
vote. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |
-LusterSoldier- | Posted 2/14/2010 12:30:42 PM | message detail |
The
longer the stalling lasts, the harder it's going to be for Crono to
comeback, even if he does pick up the pace in a few hours. The votes
per update are going to continue dropping from here on how and less
votes per update means less votes for Crono to work with if he wants to
pull that comeback. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

The votes per update are going to continue dropping from here on how and less votes per update means less votes for Crono to work with if he wants to pull that comeback.
