There's a reason why he said "at," not "from."

Yup, but for reference, Draven's lead on Link was double what he has now.

Draven's lead is also about half of what it was on Link at this time.

And that's with Samus's percentage being twice as high as Shepard's!

Oh, hey, just noticed that the Pokés managed to get Mega under 49% by the end!

Um...moral victory? Damnit, all of these Draven results are nothing compared to how butthurt Mega Man has made me this contest!

Not much of a lead right now, but gotta wait until Europe is all up and about. Still, Snake impressive as hell right now.

Tsunami's solo rage at Mega Man has been fun to follow.

Trust me it gets better Tsunami. Once upon a time Snake cost me the contest, and look at how much I want him to win here.

#228 | KamikazePotato | Posted 9/14/2013 9:29:55 PM | message detail
A bad update, but not a match-ending one. The lead is still smaller than it was on Link, Snake has a better night vote, and Draven's rallies may be weaker due to LoL worlds.

12k people on r/metalgearsolid, even if a quarter of them vote that'll help. And they can spread the word.

MGS's day vote has been surprisingly good this contest!

It'll never be Zelda good though.

Of course the preview image is Draven though.

Hmm Snake is very impressive. I didn't really want him to win before since I thought the only way he could win was by Draven's rallies collapsing but I would have voted for him if I thought he could actually stand up this well. Ahh well I doubt it will actually be close by the end.

Snake is making a real go of it - a Shepard level character here would mean the world for him. But Samus is just too much.
