I'm not going to trust any of the usual trends in this match. I'll believe one of them finally has momentum when there's at least a 300 vote lead. Until then, forget the trends, this match is exciting!

There is no way I can see WC3 losing at this point. It's won every update since the ASV started and it should dominate the Cali ASV.

It almost looks like it will do what TF2 did. Keep it close, but never lose the lead in the final hours. Maybe.

Wow, Warcraft has almost 60% in Canada. This has to be one of the wildest differences between the US and Canada that I can remember.

Wonder what the reasoning is behind that.

The stats topic is awfully slow for a match where 18 votes are separating the two games.

well just like TF2/Fable, the match will get interesting once one of the two starts building a lead, for now it's just so close it's boring

Looks like there have been a few lead changes, but who's got this? In a match this close maybe WCIII can get some rallying going.

well, according to some of the long-time board members, the real rallying for WC3 starts about 8PM PST. So, since the game is still keeping Morrowind under a 100 vote lead (and even taking the lead at time), we might actually see WC3 come out on top once the afternoon vote hits.

Canadian ASV seems to be going Morrowind's way. W3 is losing it's biggest ally.

US vote trends are amusing. It's New York, California, and a few random scattered states for Warcraft 3 vs the rest of the US.

At least North Mexico has the right idea.

...I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing that on every weekday I end up only getting to see the day match after its started, and usually hours after it starts. Usually it doesn't matter, but on a match like this, it gets annoying to find out how the match was going quickly.

...Looking at the updates, Warcraft III had the lead early, but then gradually lost it and has been going back and forth since then? Is there any idea on where this will go from here?

Plugged this into the sheet I made for TF2/Fable. By my count, that was lead change #7. Fable/TF2 had 20 overall.

WC3 has been leading for 29 of 45 updates. (64%)
MW has been leading for 16 of 45 updates. (36%)

WC3 has won 20 of 45 updates. (44%)
MW has won 25 of 45 updates. (56%)

Eh, I don't really regret not banking here even though I have a streak of 10 going into this match because there's no way 10 is worth enough to have banked beforehand. On the other hand, the positive I can take out of potentially losing here (I have Warcraft III) means I no longer see a reason to bank on Vesperia/Borderlands, so assuming I could get that right, that streak could be longer than it otherwise would be for me.

I don't really want to risk a potential streak of 14 on Vesperia/Borderlands, but if I get this match wrong, I'd only have a streak of 3 going into it, so it'd be an easy choice to pick a side there.

Dota players getting back from college/work/school. This will only get worse.
