Fable wouldn't get rallied in a million years. This is not a good start to the contest for Valve, but who knows, maybe Fable is stronger than most of us thought.

TF2/Arkham Asylum should be telling in regards to Fable's strength, if TF2 wins

Team Fortress 2: 49.99% 27149
Fable: 50.01% 27164

Just 15 damn votes of difference... will Melee/Brawl be as close as this match?

Also, TF2 just needs to hold for this hour. The board and its hardcore fans will rally it through in the final 60.

Melee/Brawl has a better chance of the winner breaking 60% IMO.

Rallying to that extent doesn't happen reliably within a 5-10 minute period after each time Fable passes.

All time record is Chrono Trigger/A Link to the Past with hundreds at least. But that was with instant-updates, so it'll never be beat unless we go back to them.

How bout the lead changing record holder for 5 minute periodical updates then?

When you're ahead, you let up a bit on the rallying. When you fall behind, you panic and start rallying like crazy. It's not too unreasonable for something like that to be happening.

Sure it does, especially if the place you are rallying hasn't been exposed to the contest yet.

It's a ****ing Valve game, people.

I have Fable winning in my bracket and battle pick, but this is definitely more Valve rallying than vote stuffing. Vote stuffing would be a lot more blatant than this.

Someone's gotta be stuffing Fable, if anything

Where would you go to rally for Fable? The Fable III board isn't talking about the contest, and no one goes to the Fable 1 board. Where are they getting these votes?

The TF2 and Steam TF2 forums have a large userbase with new people checking the boards every minute, and seeing the contest topics, and then voting.
