The real question: How many zero brackets do we lose today? I think...All of them. Nah just kidding but it comes close. Missingno, you magnificent glitch, this match is all kinds of awesome. GO! YOU CAN GET TO THE 500 HOLY BARRIER AGAIN BEFORE THE MATCH ENDS FOR THE HELL OF IT! |

Missingno
is going to end this match with a lead that is slightly over triple
what his lead was last hour before Crono fell apart. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

We're
on pace for 91,000 here. That means we're looking at about 2,000 extra
votes in the last 2 hours, which I would guess is beyond the capability
of rallying. --- 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.... |

Even if Bacon does look into it, he'll likely just say there was cheating on both sides and call it even --- http://cache-07.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/500x_lp2_x10_005.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

http://www.bracketmaker.com/tlist.cfm?tid=350689 Revised it. I'd still like so more opinions. Gonna go tally the pic topic now. Wait. *google* Oh **** me, all those characters exist. Are you saying there will be no newcomers in CB9? |

I
would have loved to see Crono be upset by a character. But not a JOKE
character. God, this contest is already going down the crapper --- AKA Super Luigi. Go Samus. Ness. Solid Snake. Mario. (2K10 Character Contest) |

Vote
totals the last two hours have been pretty high. It's not normal for a
day match's final hours to go up in vote intake from previous hours.
Usually they go down all match long per hour, but not this one. --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |
red sox 777 | Posted 2/14/2010 8:42:59 PM | message detail |
Yeah,
2000 is more than I would think rallying could give us. My guess is
there was a lot of rallying on both sides, and some stuffing on top of
it. --- 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.... |

kinda sad to see the noble nine go down in flames, but then again, it

performance lately. --- "I do read sometimes." Mat Cauthon, The Wheel of Time. |

Well, Crono has surpassed every night match winner in votes except Link, and a good number of the day match winners too. --- 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.... |

It's
worth noting Crono was the first Noble Niner to lose to a non-Noble
Niner in the four-way format, too. He's always been my least favorite
Noble Niner, but I don't like to see stuff like this happen to the guy
either. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

Oh
yeah and is this like the closest wire to wire matchup in onevone
history? Obviously it doesn't count because it's not a 24 hour match
but still. --- "Go and read some more Wikipedia I'm sure they have a good article on spases." - Lil69Leo |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/14/2010 8:54:01 PM | message detail |
From: XIII_rocks | #128 Not even the closest one this contest. Ken/Wesker was closer. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

Ken/Wesker, Chrono Trigger/LttP and Frog/Liquid were closer wire-to-wire than this. Amazing how three out of the four closest wire-to-wire matches involve Chrono Trigger --- Ours is not to reason why, ours is but to do and die. |

Farewell, Crono. You'll never be forgo- HAHAHAHA MISSINGNO ACTIVATED THE HOLY 500 VOTE BARRIER AT THE LAST SECOND. That was his love letter to all his fans. |

Oh right, I'm just really out of touch then. Didn't know Ken/Wesker was that close, must have been out that day or something. Minute left... --- "Go and read some more Wikipedia I'm sure they have a good article on spases." - Lil69Leo |

Anyway,
while not directly stated, I imagine that topic implies that nothing is
going to happen in terms of removing votes from either, though maybe
we'll get a comment about it after it ends. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? SC2k10 (52/59) Crono v Missingno |

Man,
it's like the Missingno people saw Bacon's topic and that he didn't
care, so they hit Crono with one last spike just for good measure. --- "Spoil it for me. I'm never going to play that game so I want to know if he's going to be another Auron or another Sin." - Soul about Jecht vs. PW |
