Wheatley winning for 15 minutes before Crash rolls past for the victory would be pretty interesting!

i'm gonna laugh if Wheatley's only lead is right at 15 minutes


ahaha this could actually happen too
that one vote crash lead

3's a trend, right? So we're rotating lead changes all the way until noon? Which means... we have no idea who wins because we can't count updates because this tournament has not been consistent at all about if and/or when the random 6-minute updates show up instead of 5.

Awesome.

Gotta root for Wheatley here -- one of the best characters in years.

Unless Crash dropped, this suggests good things for GLaDOS too. Epona/Ike (most likely) already hurt each other against her, so Wheatley doing well is another x-factor in her corner now.

Struggling to beat Crash Bandicoot doesn't suggest good things for anyone.

I mean, I've argued hard for him from day 1, but it was mostly because I expected Wheatley to suck.
