If Phoenix Wright hangs onto 52.xx% the rest of this hour, it wins! .....because my prophecy says so.

What now?

Sad thing is that even if PW gets a lead overnight, it'll be destroyed with the morning vote. Oh well, at least it did better than some people were calling for.

Nah, you have to assign some of the blame to the Bullet Bill that hit after that, as well as the Lightning Bolt that followed that, and the Invincibility Star after that....

Making up 3% and then surviving the morning/early in-school vote (WHATEVER it's called; I don't know all the different acronyms!) is one major obstacle, though. With rallying (which is hard to do in the middle of the night and early in the morning), maybe it could be done, though.

Over midair, from 11 freaking racers instead of 7.

I hate Mario Kart Wii. I hate Mario Kart in general since it punishes skill (good job, Nintendo), but I *hate* Mario Kart Wii.

The fact its actually gone up in % since the board vote (which I doubt PW has ever done before) means it might have more legit trends now instead of its typical joke trends. Who knows

Phoenix actually took the lead over Bowser during the night in this match. Course he still lost by a longshot come day, but this is a 12-hour match. Also Mario Kart Wii's going to be a ton more day-oriented than Bowser (being a casual game and all).

Gotta keep that fear alive.

Yeah, the other thing is that Mario Kart is quite popular in Europe, though I'm not sure if it extends to Mario Kart Wii.

There's a big difference between the Mario Kart night vote and the FFX night vote.

There's a world of difference between FFX and Mario in night votes, and PW didn't lose that much ground to Jecht. Although he also was 50/50 with Magus through half an hour and then lost 57/43, so......

Clearly after years of Phoenix board vote dominance, voters feel the need for a change.

Something new. No more "Phoenix always wins the board vote!" That's so played out.

Unlikely that the site would go down about 5 hours before the match ends. And even if it did, it is almost impossible that the downtime would last long enough to reach the end of the match.

SBAllen probably would let it go, because a poll glitch last month resulted in one poll lasting for 40 hours. This poll was scheduled to go up on the day that a poll glitch caused one poll to last for 40 hours:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=4061

SBAllen ended up putting that poll up around 3:58 PM EST and it managed to break 40000 votes thanks to another poll glitch which caused the poll to not close at 12:00 AM EST. The poll was manually closed at 1:08 AM EST, but the extra hour allowed for about an extra 3800 votes (would have finished around 38307 if it closed at 12:00 AM EST).

Then again, Phoenix is rising here, whereas he won the board vote against Bowser and did about the same in the first and second hours. Mario Kart Wii is the favorite, but PW has a small chance here.
