cloud only gained what? 20 on snake? Snake is hanging tough. Did you not learn? Stop pissing off Cloud he was nice enough not to destroy both Kirby and Snake right away. --- "Mewtwo is a major joke."- Vlado |

I'm expecting Kirby to completely die as the match goes on. I was
serious about the claim that Sephiroth will win hours on Kirby tonight-
it looks unlikely now but wait and see. --- Crono's quest to beat Link: Link vs. Crono vs. Mario vs. Samus |

lookin' good for a Cloud comeback here. Snake's slowing down during his

There's no telling how much Snake needs to hold on here. He just needs
to keep increasing and not let Cloud get any substantial cuts on him
during the night and keep building his lead now. Once the day hits, it
should favor Cloud decisively. like that update isn't good --- http://i33.tinypic.com/2s0xn3o.gif |

Snake's only hope is that the majority of the anti-vote is going to
Seph right now meaning he'll go up a lot more than Cloud, leaving Cloud
only a relatively minor leap. YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE. --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

Looks like all the Cloud rallying is starting to wear off.

people vote Seph and Kirby Clearly your logic is that Kirby ate Dante's powers and the goth people will vote for him because he looks like Dante. http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p160/satai_delenn/dantekirby1.jpg Man, I'd almost be tempted to root for Kirby if he looked like that in the match pic. --- Attention, all yoctograms!

Just to say, I disagree with the notion that the first hour voters are
"smart" - if they were truly thinking it through, they'd be voting
Snake rather than Kirby. Kirby probably got close to an extra 1,000
votes here. Snake could really use those. The early voters are more "contest aware", not necessarily smarter. In the last match, from the 01;25 point Snake lost about a point, and Cloud gained 3.85 points. That leaves Snake at about 30.77% and Cloud at 31.39%. Hmmm, closer than I thought. Those Kirby "smart" votes might actually have been the difference in this match, if they'd gone to Snake. I expect Cloud to win a bit more comfortably than that though. --- Save_Us.RAT BREAK THE BLOCK DOWN |

Yes. Kirby controls all voting blocks with his power stealing we just have to wait until the Cloud joke vote wears off. That picture is still awesome.

Contest awareness is what I meant, yes. It seems obvious that abandoning Seph for Cloud is the good idea, knowing he was going to lose by a lot anyway. I don't think it's quite as obvious for Kirby to most people. --- Kirby's quest to defeat Cloud: Round 5 - The big cheese himself Target: 48% Gained Crazy Party and "You're Too Slow!" ability.

It's just that the contest aware people tend to highly gravitate towards Nintendo and jokes, and away from the FF7 males (except perhaps Zack). --- Save_Us.RAT BREAK THE BLOCK DOWN |

Man Snake is just teasing me here with his continued update wins over Cloud. But Cloud will win, then it'll be Link>Cloud, and I'll lose the Contest due to an accidental bracket mistake (Snake>Cloud). Sheesh. That would be tough to swallow. --- Save_Us.RAT BREAK THE BLOCK DOWN |

hmm... I never underestimate FF7's sucky early vote, and even then I
think I overreacted in Snake's favour. let's see if Snake slowing down
during his best time is just a random Cloud spike or what, 'cause
Cloud's going to rock him come daytime. Snake probably needs a serious
lead to stop Cloud. I'm not sure who has the better day vote: Snake or Cloud. I know Snake's day vote has gotten slightly better since Brawl has been out for a while, but I'm not sure if that puts his day vote above Cloud. --- Luster Soldier - Popular at school. ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ |

Looks like realistically Snake would have been the pretty big favorite
going into this match. It's only because Cloud is taking an
unprecedented amount away from Sephiroth that Cloud can win this. I
mean come on, who thought Cloud would more than double Sephiroth here --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
