Who is Yoshi rooting for right now? And Sephi?

Character Battle VIII - 51/57
Upcoming Picks: Yoshi, Crono, Big Daddy, Ness, Tifa, Peach

Sephiroth has got to be rooting for Crono. Not sure about Yoshi, though he probably loses to either of them.

First update was a huge Missingno boost, resulting in his best update for over an hour. Second was a Crono drop, leading to the lowest vote increase of either.

Yeah, I really can't wrap my head around that answer for Yoshi. My gut is MissingNo which makes it all the more bizarre that those 2 answers are different.

Honestly, Missingno might lost to Yoshi next round. Both are Nintendo and Yoshi's got more widespread appeal than Crono does, even though Yoshi is technically weaker.

If there's one thing for certain, we need to make Missingno. a 1 Seed next year! Admit it - you'd love to see the Cinnabar Division.

What is 'normal vote intake' for this match, anyway?

If he gets around 350 on the next update, I'll say that's around normal given the time of the day and how many votes we have been getting per update recently. Crono only got 321 votes in one update before spiking to 371 on that last one.

Crono only got 321 votes in one update before spiking to 371 on that last one.

I think you have to keep in mind that the 321 update was what, the lowest update for either the entire match? If anything that's the anomaly. 371 is closer to what Crono was putting up about 20 minutes ago, though yes, a bit higher than the last few updates.

I mean if you want to isolate "spikes" like this you can do it on either side, probably quite a bit.

-LusterSoldier- | Posted 2/14/2010 1:13:20 PM | message detail
Okay, so Crono didn't get around 350 like I expected. Missingno still managed to win that update though due to remaining somewhat static on the last few updates, apart from that 393 vote update.

If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying.

I love watching matches where both sides cheat the hell and back. I hope Missingno wins, but I'll just be happy he put up a nice fight if he loses.

DaruniaTheGoron | Posted 2/14/2010 1:20:50 PM | message detail
Wow.. so I check the poll for the first time today.. I didn't even remember who was facing who. I see the poll and almost vote Missingno.. then I was like eh let's see the results first.

The next 5 minutes were dedicated to me going "WHAT THE **** HOW IN THE **** ALL THOSE JOKERS WITH "MISSINGNO" AS THE WINNER COULD BE RIGHT WTF IS GOING ON".

Now I don't know who to vote for. While I would love to see this massive upset happen.. I also have always believed in the Noble Nine concept and that the 4-ways didn't mean squat and that Crono would keep doing well in the 1v1s. Now we have this.. what in the holy Hell is going on you guys...

In the event that Crono wins the popular vote in the US, Missingno would still win the electoral college due to holding California, Texas, New York, and Florida. Missingno also has some other large states too.
