Link would be such a great bonus boss for, say, KH3.

Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest.

Fallout hasn't lost % in like a half an hour, and just had its best update of the match. This is gonna get worse for Infamous before it gets better

well red sox you've convinced me

Snake > Link here we come


Never. We will never surrender to the likes of Snake. Indeed, for the sheer insolence in the first 6 hours of the 2008 finals, the wrath of Link lies upon the house of Snake from the West to the East. None but a Square character shall defeat Link.




What's more square than a cardboard box?

So what vote totals are we expecting?

Hopefully the vote total slump doesn't spill over or else we'll be getting a bunch of night matches with less than 50k votes.


Last contest, 46209 was the lowest vote total for a night match. The lowest vote total for a day match is 55285. Because the worst fodder in this contest will be weaker than the worst fodder from the last BGE, we could have some matches with terrible vote totals. I'll bet on some of the fodder/fodder matches getting less than 40000 votes in a night match.

But I do expect the average vote totals during this contest to be lower than the last contest. Especially because we went into a big vote total slump since early August. Here were the average vote totals per poll during each month since the Character Battle ended:

March - 88564.60
April - 82946.23
May - 76946.97
June - 77733.93
July - 72983.84
August - 69064.42
September - 63369.67
October - 61422.37

March only counts the 10 regular polls that were ran during that month after the Character Battle ended. And October only counts the 19 regular polls in the month before this contest started. So except for June, the average vote totals per poll declines each month since the Character Battle ended.

You know, a lot of this probably has a lot to do with New Vegas being released yesterday. As time goes on, it should settle down. This isn't to say inFamous isn't piss weak or anything, but let's not overhype Fallout 3 just to blame it later when it comes back down to earth.

If vote totals stay this low for the first round, it's possible Legend of Dragoon beats Uncharted 2.

Vote totals are abysmal, indeed.... at this time on night matches LAST contest, we would be getting 36,000 votes even on unattractive matches. We're just a little over 30,000. Maybe my low tiebreaker choice of 109000 votes actually may be somewhat close.

Oh, God... I feel bad for inFamous... I mean, I knew Fallout 3 was going to win this no matter what so I was going to vote for inFamous, but... I didn't expect this level of ownage.

We're heading for about 42k votes and while FO3 didn't exactly bring in the votes in its first round match we'll probably see a few matches where vote totals are fairly below 40k.

To help finish this topic, which match will have the lowest vote total?

Here's the most likely options...

Demon's Souls/Mega Man 9
Perfect Dark/Conker's BFD
Valkyria Chronicles/Disgaea
Persona 3/Civilization IV
TWEWY/Dead Rising
Skies of Arcadia/Buldur's Gate II
