Man ZeldaFaqs just never quits. I'm really hoping FFX can win the contest since that would make it the only contest with a good winner to me. I'd rather not see Brawl vs Zelda a second time this contest.

This is ridiculous. This is a day swing you would expect from Halo vs. Magus or something.

If Majora gets an even crazier hour, we might just see the fabled 10% swing.

It's the same swing as OOT got on FFX. Not even close to Magus.

Majora's Mask just cut about 400 off the lead in an hour. This is too awesome. It's a race against time now - how much of a lead can it get before the ASV runs out.

Since the ASV usually lasts four/five more hours... this isn't a very tight race. >_>

Match of the contest, and it will be hard for the final to outdo it. This is the most fun I've had with a match since at least the 2009 games contest, probably earlier since my favorite lost in all the major great matches of 2009.

You know, those projections have been insisting that Majora wins by like 1000 all day. I didn't believe that until now, but......projections never lie.

So MM is getting just over 200 votes an update, again, with remarkable consistency. The one time it didn't was the time it "only" won the update by 17 votes. This is a real barnbuster.

Hah, and then it gets a 250-vote update to cut by 71.

And, actually, this is looking a lot like Sonic/Crono. The only difference is that Crono used the first part of the night vote to build his lead, while FFX used the second part. Since morning this has looked like a replay of that match.

Wait, what? FFX would have taken a night match, and if this is indication, MM would crush a day match, It's that this is a 24 hour match that makes it so awesome.

It does seem weird to think this still has a while left to run, but I think there's an argument for 24 hour matches...but 12 hour matches should stay for now. Should have been 24 hours from the QFs though - the contest was designed with that "final bracket" down at the bottom, you'd have thought that they would all have been 24 hours.

I like the 12 hour matches for the early rounds where the results aren't as significant. I think 24 hour Quarter Finals, Semi-Finals and the Final (and maybe even Division Finals?) are important thought, as it makes things fair, and in matches like this, a lot more fun and interesting.
