Oh I know what this match needs to be legendary. World Series Factor.

would that be some kind of mass vote spike once the game ends?


We'll find out soon. The next update will happen after the game officially ended.

Let it be known that Ramza gained three votes from the World Series Factor.

We can only hope

I want Squall to end this looking respectable. Getting the tripling would be a solid start after that awful board vote.
Shine on, you crazy diamond.

OK yeah what
Go Garrus, my one point depends on you!
3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066
I think Garrus wins this. Over half the total votes are in already, and even more will be in by the time Garrus stops cutting/building his lead. Ramza won't have much room to recover. We're used to thinking of the day vote as being a huge chunk of the match but it's way smaller than it used to be thanks to the new start time.
If all else fails use fire.
XIII_rocks 10/27/2018 1:34:48 AM#413
Garrus probably needs to pick it up a bit

Ramza won the first 6 hours by 242 votes and I imagine will come back to making consistent gains later

Still, though, this might wind up as one of our closest ever w2w 24 hour matches, what with the low vote totals and all

The close ones in 2010 were all 12 hours right?

Ramza’s lead was down to 50 and is back to 58.

If Garrus doesn’t get 100 in front in the next few hours surely he loses?

I don't think it's quite as predictable as that.

Who wins the day vote? Traditionally that would be the western character over the older FF one.

What's the story with registered user votes? Seems like it'll be a decisive factor.

Also reminder that Majora's Mask vs Super Metroid also was tied at this exact same time
Two hours later, Super Metroid started to run with the lead, held it for 6 hours, and then started collapssing for 2 hours, until Majora started running with the lead

I am not saying we will get the same trends here, but it's similar so far

As of 5:45 AM, Ramza is currently winning the registered user vote with 50.52%. The anonymous user vote is currently favoring Garrus with 51.18%. It can be tough to look into those voting results, especially if the rally attempt for Garrus is having an actual effect on the match. A rally would generally consist of votes from anonymous users.

Garrus winning the anonymous user vote would seem like a good thing, as the registered user votes will dry up near the end of the match. A few trend charts I've done for previous matches shows that registered user voting hits rock bottom during the last 6 hours of a match.

How can you know how many votes are from registered users before the match is over?

I'm able to obtain the raw vote totals (without the bonus applied) by viewing the source code of this page:

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/map?id=7271

Once I find the relevant vote totals, I check it against the actual results to calculate the votes from registered users.

I guess that would make Garrus the real Hilary Clinton of this thing.

Wins the popular vote but loses the match.

Stop saying Ramza is winning because of TJF.

He’s clearly winning because of Dat Ass.
