That's a slim update win for Melee. 7 votes, I think? Doesn't tell us much.

Melee extends its lead to 80 votes, Brawl cuts a percent. Match is on.

I think realistically if either game has over 51% at the end of the hour, it would be basically over.

Brawl's gonna get the 60-40

Come on Melee, make the next update the fatal blow already.

Also, Europe will drop in percent overnight, as usually the case. Asia doesn't really contribute too many votes, so Brawl winning there doesn't matter much

It's a good thing the contest is almost over with, because tracking poll updates myself isn't my favorite thing to do, but I've tracked all 24 hours of several polls before in the past. At least I won't have to track very many matches here.

I'll give the poll ten more minutes. If SSBB doesn't straighten up, it's done -- this match won't get big trend-changes, and any that come will probably be in SSBM's favor.
