I'd say its over now... Jokes always do best with the board vote. If it can't even have a convincing lead over Rikku in the first minute its toast

I'd guess 10-15 minutes based on the various porn I've seen.

Wow, ? Block looking terrible. It would have done better in 2008, for sure, but the board failed to get ? Block into the 2008 contest. Hell, in Ulti's write-up for ? Block's bonus match, he blasted the board for its failure to get ? Block into the 2008 contest.

I don't know. I'm still worried about Rikku. ? Block had a pretty killer Day Vote from what I recall last time, and it's not like it's even a board favorite or anything.

Lyndis' strength is surprising to me, though I suppose she was the first character you played in the first NA-released Fire Emblem game, so there's probably some nostalgia factor there.

I'm not sure the trends from the ? Block's bonus match are to be trusted. L-Block was heavily frontloaded in that match and had really no where to go but down the whole match. ? Block's worst time was with the board vote in that match and had no where to go but up.

If it doesn't have Joke trends then it should have Nintendo trends, which is still bad news for the Block.

Yeah, looks like we're gonna stay stable through the mini-Power Hour, after which ? should fall off if it's a real Nintendo character. If not and it still has a decent day vote we might see it try to catch up on Rikku, but that seems a bit doubtful barring some kind of dumb rally.

Wouldn't rule out a rally quite yet, and right now Rikku's not gaining enough to be too far away to catch, though right now she's doing well enough that a rally wouldn't guarantee a ? Block win.

Rikku's looking pretty solid right now, though, and ? Block's going to need a lot to win this one.

At least the 12 hour format has prevented them from causing any damage.

Hopefully all of their favorites are gone by the time 24 hour matches start.

Votes should be dropping off at this point, even accounting for variance. The rally is a better indicator of why she just got cut considering the countless correlations we have for them.
