Imagine if this was the final match and Link was in place of Nekku,Snake in place of Catherine and Mario in place of Vaas.How many stats topics would have been made?


I think I'd have a heart attack at some point

C'mon, Neku NEEDS to win this, so the Wyse<Laharl<Neku chain can continue. We have certain traditions that must be maintained

on that same note, Knuckles must keep up his murdering of Square fodder in round 1 gimmic too.

i mean seriously, Snake takes a 1 vote lead over Link in the first update? Link jumps out to 80 and we all assume it's over... then all of a sudden Snake comes back again? that 40 vote cut alone would fill a whole topic.

This match makes no sense, it's as if both characters are trying to put on an entertaining show. No real moments of 50/50 shares, just one character in the ascendancy completely halting the moment they're about to pull away or take the lead.
Great match with two great characters, don't mind who wins it at this stage.

I'm actually hoping Catherine maintains the lead for the rest of the match up until the last two updates where Neku pulls a fast one, takes the lead and never looks back.

Depends on the district/county. Majority? No. But there are schools that have started, yes.

Imagine Catherine wins by one vote, then Bacon finds two cheated votes and removes them.

That would be the best kids show ending ever

I'm thinking this is what happened. A couple hundred kids came home from school and voted in the contest.

I have the poll auto-refreshing

I haven't had to use that feature in forever

I hope Catherine wins, because I got a lot of people to switch to Neku with my pic

just like I got a lot of people to switch to Juliet with her TJF

We don't even get that many votes in these things anymore. There's been, like, 836 votes in the last hour worldwide. How many of those 836 votes do you think were West Coast kids getting out of school who decisively favored Neku Sakuraba?

edit: flubbed math, actually 2270 votes, same principle

Knowing TWEWY getting releases on a few other systems (iOS) I could see Sakuraba pulling in a few casual votes.

But will it be enough?

I like how Vaas managed to not drop in percent even though he's the third wheel in a 50-50 match.

In fact he's kind of going up

It's unusual in tightly contested matches. Either means there's no significant rallying to bury him or the rallying has been consistent throughout and isn't spiking majorly.

Yeah at the freeze Vaas was getting more than doubled, now he's sitting at around 37% and still increasing a bit.
