There was nothing wrong with that picture and it looked far better than the crap that's up right now.


As a picture it was a cool, but as a representation of the character it was awful.

How long could the rally hold against Link? Draven vs. Link vs. Aerith/Shepard would be during the 24 hour period, right?

That was back then, by the end of this match it'll probably be around 9000 and that's with little incentive to continue rallying.


From what I can tell, I would have to agree with you that Draven had about 9000 rallied votes. The match would have gotten about 29000 votes without any rallied votes at all and this match is getting about 39000 votes instead. The controversy over the rallying in this match would have also increased the number of people visiting the front page to vote in the match, so we might have gotten about an additional 1000 votes (not connected to the Draven rallies) thanks to the fallout resulting from the Draven rallies.

This match is still sad. This is against Jak and Chie, and he's barely beating Jak.

The biggest loss from the rally is lol x-stats. Before the rally, Draven was going to be among the weakest characters we've ever seen, and the number would have simply been hilarious. More than doubled by Jak, who was below Guybrush last time. Luckily, there's still plenty of fodder to fall apart, possibly below Tanner levels.

Draven is just going to get stronger as the contest goes on he's lucky to be up against 2 Capcom characters next round. That will be his true test to wreck brackets!

Wow. Very glad to see Draven winning when I woke up. Huge WTF moment for me though.

It's weird, I went to bed fully acknowledging and accepting my perfect bracket was screwed in the first division. Waking up to see it exactly the opposite is kind of strange.

He was also pretty late last night with just the two pics so we might get them last minute

Seeing so much "i just woke up" comments maybe the real reason is that Draven won just because of europe day vote?
Yeah I know this site traffic is like 80% from NA,but still!


Also,about Face - probably been brought before but...
He is a psycho,and psycho appears in the cover of both games, maybe it will give him a good boost to get second place?

I wish we still had the old Geolocation system because we could actually see the vote totals for each continent. I bet Europe has close to 10000 votes in this match. I guess I could use the percentages for the different countries in Europe to get an idea of how many votes came from certain countries.

That said, I think Yuri's looking like a solid second, unless Shooty ends up getting a massive rally himself (which wouldn't surprise me at this point).

So going by vote totals, it would appear that Shepard is the favorite over Aeris right?

S/He got more votes in a Day match, against stronger opponents (Olimar/Kain). Or is it Hero/Rinoa > Olimar/Kain?
