Morrowind's
been over 200 votes per update for a good while (before that dip). WC3
needs it to cool down quickly if this isn't to be over. --- I predict and analyse the Game of the Decade contest here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/56817040 |

From: Haste_2 | #139 I think Melee having the 1 seed could account for a lot of the bracket support among casuals. --- Dr Football and Snake have won this round, but Sephiroth will rise again! |

Over a 300 vote lead, surely it's over? --- Did you know that? No? Neither did i. |

This
is far from over. I wouldn't feel comfortable with a 300 vote lead, not
with the Cali ASV still coming, and Warcraft having a clear edge in
rallying potential. --- A pro isn't someone who sacrifices himself for his job. That's just a fool. - Reno, FFVII http://i25.tinypic.com/2cp5chf.jpg |

From: MegatokyoEd | #152 Central time ASV Look at the vote map this shouldn't be shocking anyone. There is one state there that favors Warcraft. It's a wasteland. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

WC3 seems to have stalled out, at least. I still don't really like its chances. Warcraft has a terrible day vote, and Elder Scrolls' is pretty decent. --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |

It's been 18 updates since WC3 won one: I wonder if Morrowind can make it 20. --- I predict and analyse the Game of the Decade contest here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/56817040 |

I come back from an online golf game and see MW in the lead with 300. B) WC3 is still in this, though. Not calling it until there's a 600 vote lead at the very least. --- The Gamer In Me "Paulg is a genius." - MajinZidane |

I
feel fairly good about WC still. California's coming up, Europe's going
to sleep soon, and Asia will be waking up soon. Most importantly, it's
a Blizzard game in a close match with the second night vote coming up. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |

Pretty
epic match right now, Canada loves Blizzard as usual. The California
ASV will be starting soon, which will make things interesting. *refreshes* >_> --- BOP Results: http://charmander6000.webs.com/GotD%20BOP.xls GotD Bracket: 14/16 Today's Matches: SSBM & WC3 |

Sunshine... I picked Sunshine put have Halo:CE beating it. So if the first Halos stronger than the 3rd (as it should be), i should be alright. As to why i picked Sunshine and then Halo - i overestimated day votes and stuffs. --- Did you know that? No? Neither did i. |

is interesting that Oblivion/WoW had nearly identical regional votes to
what we're seeing here. WoW dominated in CA, Canada, SA and Asia. --- Dr Football and Snake have won this round, but Sephiroth will rise again! |

Well WC3 is still going to lose this voting block, as the edge lies with Morrowind in Mountain time too Thought it'd be closer than central though. Granted I haven't looked at the individual states so maybe WC3 is getting annihilated in the states it's losing and edging the states it's winning who knows. --- No problem!

I'm still lost as to why TES is so unpopular in Canada compared to Warcraft. It's a Blizzard thing. For example Starcraft almost defeated FFVIII, Diablo II came pretty close to SSBM in round 2 and WoW did a lot better. As a Canadian it's not that surprising all my friends loved those games (except WoW, didn't hear too much about that one) --- BOP Results: http://charmander6000.webs.com/GotD%20BOP.xls GotD Bracket: 14/16 Today's Matches: SSBM & WC3 |

So, how long until the Cali ASV is supposed to start? 15 minutes, though we need to drop the overall US percent for Morrowind so Canada can close in the gap more for North America.

Canada
also supports Chrono Trigger a lot more than the US and it doesn't
support the traditional ASV powerhouses as much (Halo, KH, SSB). Sadly we also support Tales of Symphonia. --- BOP Results: http://charmander6000.webs.com/GotD%20BOP.xls GotD Bracket: 14/16 Today's Matches: SSBM & WC3 |

Taking
a look at the expected vote totals, Asia pretty much counters what
Europe is doing and may even provide a hundred votes more to the cause
against US. It's mostly down to Canada, South America and California. Over the last 20 minutes California's percent has dropped slightly while Canada has risen. --- BOP Results: http://charmander6000.webs.com/GotD%20BOP.xls GotD Bracket: 14/16 Today's Matches: SSBM & WC3 |

Lieutenant Kettch | Posted 10/28/2010 3:02:05 PM | message detail |
Should
also be noted that WoW continued to lose percentage for the rest of the
match, despite having an even larger lead in California compared to the
overall vote. I'd say Warcraft III's best hope is to have it close
enough for rallying to matter, as a legit vote swing doesn't look too
likely. --- Dr Football and Snake have won this round, but Sephiroth will rise again! |

From: charmander6000 | #184 Makes sense, my group of friends played Warcraft 2 and Starcraft in elementary school, then we all played WC3/DotA in high school. In high school there was about 20 of us playing regularly. But then again, we also played a lot of Age of Empires 2. --- http://i49.tinypic.com/2ry672r.jpg |
