Halfway through the match, Fallout 3 has a smaller lead than ME3 did at this point by 669 votes (6644 vs. 7313) but vote totals are 6403 higher (30652 vs. 24251).


That's pretty much all I needed to assuage my concerns. Six thousand additional votes is a big deal. The fact that Fallout absorbed it like a champ not only really hurts Undertale's chances from a pure numbers standpoint, but it probably demoralizes some of their supporters as well. Why try as hard in a few hours when you already tried and fell far short?

The most interesting thing I'm waiting on now is the smart-guy analysis of how many extra votes we got today and approx. how many of those favored Pokémon over Mario 3 (if anyone would even wager an educated guess).


the only thing supporters see is a percentage. Fallout is bleeding percentage like crazy.

If R/B/Y can't match Mario World's percentage on FFVIII against Sonic 2...

...I'm not sure what that would mean.


When you put it that way, my gut instinct seems a bit too generous to Sonic! But I do think it will outperform expectations to some extent. The 16-bit era is having a phenomenal year, and seeing Sonic in Round 3 will be a beautiful sight and perhaps give it some bandwagon/underdog support.

20 vote cut. That's at least something notable.

Yep, this is what will encourage them to go berserk and attack the poll with all they've got.

Yeah I feel like even if Undertale does win it'll have to be closer to a 60-40 affair before I'd take it over Mario. The day is still young though!

Hmm, that's a decent cut so far. That cut of 35 is probably Undertale's largest cut (don't feel like checking more closely).

and yeah, that cut's concerning at this time of day. Based on the rush that Undertale got at the end of last match, I don't think they were too close to hitting critical mass.

If my calculations are correct, Undertale needs to cut approximately 55 votes per update to win.

Undertale deserves to win this. It's far, far better a game than Fallout 3 is. If it had the same playrate as Fallout this would easily be a 70-30 blowout. Can't wait until the rally starts.

so if undertale reaches the division finals and loses to r/b/y one of my bracket's biggest blunders (fo3 > smw) would be safely covered and my r/b/y pick to win the division would be vindicated.

So... Go undertale?

Well Tumblr would be really split over Pokemon so Pokemon should be able to use it's natural strength to win easily.
There you go

Exactly it; look at how Pokemon is already rising with the rally. Tumblr kids love Pokemon! It just doesn't have the same rally appeal of taking down big bad western blockbuster games, or even Mario.
