The return of...Me_Pie_Three

Brawl has Europe though. Is it really time to call it game?

US is heavily supporting Melee.

In December 2010, a new guru will rise.

Brawl won that one, I think? Not by much though.

One of the most troublesome things in life is that what you do or do not want has little to do with what does or does not happen. 4983-4640-3352 Brawl Code

Hmm....now Brawl decides to cut. Well, no worries, this match should be relatively trendless.

Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest.

yeah, KH/KH2 should have been relatively trendless too.

Tranny, if I'm not mistaken the oracle website pulls from the updater and not GameFAQs (it only puts in its final update when it comes in from cn's updater and not from the site itself).

Europe and Asia are now favoring Brawl even more strongly. We could actually see huge trend swings in this one with Brawl killing in the dead hours then Melee charging back in the morning.

Be a good little washing machine, now... o_0

But no amount of Eurasia voting can save Brawl if it can't stall out the Melee Power Hour.

It'll be sad if this just comes down to Melee's fans wanting it more, I have to say.

"oh my god oh my god a spider just crawled INTO MY KEYBOARD" -pxlated
"It just wants some web access." - Ness26

It's more likely that Europe and Asia will settle down to smaller margins for Brawl once they get more votes. Still very few votes coming in from Europe at this point.

Brawl's always done better than Melee overnight though (Melee's overnight is abysmal like none else......like I was thinking about a CT/Melee match today, and realized that CT would actually do better in Europe than North America in that match).

For your health.
At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza

Melee looking good. Brawl's looking good to take the night vote though if those geolocation trends are even close to accurate. Melee could be a power hour beast, something that would make sense if the more hardcore voters favour it overwhelmingly.

How are people calling this over when Europe/Asia/UK are so one-sided?

I'm sure they'll even back out, but not sure if Melee can pull back to 50/50 there. And if it can't it might be in some trouble.

UK isn't as bad as the rest and Europe tends to push closer to UK over time so that's a little plus for Melee. But Brawl is still 57% there.

"Ike and Ash and co. saw a Yoshi and didn't catch it" - Mer telling us his dream

If Melee can hold 52% at the end of the Power Hour, it's over. FFX would find it hard pressed to beat Melee in a night match if Melee had 53% at 1 AM.
