And then Squall bursts out with a big gain right after snagging the lead, indicative of the match's remarkably organic trends.

In other news, Squall is now over 60% on Ammy. Looks like Squall still beats Luigi, after all these years.

Still 8hrs 30mins remaining, it's not over yet until Squall leads by 300+ votes.

New Square in its entirety careens downward. Squall? "Whatever". The only FF8 character to enter a character battle for eight contests. The only one needed.

The floodgates are opening. And it's still 30 minutes until 4 AM. Crono is still able to make small gains on Vincent at this hour. In 30 minutes.......you know what happens in 30 minutes.

The problem is that Missingno's vote intake dropped off a cliff during those last 3 updates, while Squall is still remaining very stable right now.

Right as we approach Squall's time, he lets loose with another limit break. This one's a Blasting Zone. Which means that Sox is probably right, and the next update is going to be a thing of beauty.

So I just woke up...
1)Vivi did it.I still can't believe it.FREAKING MARIO lost in the 2nd match!And the prediction was less than 5%...I thought it would be higher.Also is this the first time that everybody on leaderboard got it wrong or the same happened with Draven's match?
2)Missigno isn't winning...But he is fighting.That is the strange thing with jokes.He struggles against Tidus and against Squall who is much stronger he keeps it close.

They decided that fighting over the 0-10 gap is boring so they took it to the 40-50
Now maybe it's boring too so they are taking it to the 70-80

Maybe then it will be missingno turn to decide where they fight and he will take the lead,but whatever

So, I missed the end of Mario/Vivi. Mario didn't go into "clutch" gear?

Vote totals difference between
Ryu/Yuri/Face
Sonic/Barret/Dracula
Squall/Missingno/Amatarsu

09:18 - 1780
09:17-1945
21:17 - 2670

I don't know whether night match or day match should get more votes early
And it also doesn't take into consideration that Missingno and Squall match should be more interesting than Sonic's

But still..after a Draven got 56k votes with about 45k of them just from reddit,you would expect more to stick around..
Sure,the link in reddit was for the poll itself and not for the main page so without browing to the main page they can't know there is a new match,but I still think something is fishy here

Another good hour for Missingno, but it should be the last he's able to resist until morning.

Also, Bacon didn't say anything?

Kind of surprised. Unless he knows that we know he's just going to say, "Everything is fine!"

It is Mario though so Vivi losing 500 votes is completely plausible. that guy

I just can't quite believe Squall can win this. Even if he can build a lead over the next two hours, I just expect it to all go away later.

I wonder how high Squall's lead needs to get to be safe. I mean Tidus peaked at a lead of 50ish and only lost by 20ish but I feel like MissingNo could've done better if he really wanted to.

I'm thinking if Squall hits 400 he's gotta be set right

#388 | Ultimaphazon | Posted 8/30/2013 2:06:33 AM | message detail
I think Squall has this one won. The lead is already over 200 and there's at least 2 more hours of complete Squall domination before Misno can start a comeback. It will be too much.

During Sephiroth/Missingno, it took until about 7:00 AM before Sephiroth started dropping off after beasting the TDZ. So I imagine Squall will continue dominating Missingno until about 7:00 AM before dropping off a bit.

Based on Sephiroth/Missingno, Squall wins with 53.23%.
Estimated Rally Votes Needed: 1400

Squall's actually been doing a little worse than Sephiroth recently, but is still projected to win by more than Seph did.
