Tifa is in trouble if MMX starts cutting now

Tifa is done if this continues.

This eases the pain of picking Squall over Zelda. Good to see Square can occasionally best Nintendo in close matches still

You mean Capcom.

From this point on, Tifa gained a bit on Mewtwo while X fell against Ocelot. Definitely favoring her now.

Pokemon sucks with the morning vote since you get oldest voters on average during that time period (based on age polls). It's the older voters that are least likely to have played Pokemon. This is not expected to be an issue with MMX.
---

Yeah, Tifa is gonna be okay here I think. I can't imagine her falling apart during the day to X... each round X struggled during the day.

The SJWFF is absolutely real this year. There's no way Tifa should be this close to X naturally. And just look at this KOS-MOS performance.

If that were true, then the finals would be Chloe vs Ellie. Sans wouldn't be far behind them.

Sans is white and CIS gender, now way he benefits from SJWFF
---

Hey look, the trends are the exact same as every other Mega Man match in history, whoda think?
---

Very impressive performance by Tifa overnight. MMX seems to be stalling a bit so maybe this isn't over yet.
---

In fact, Tifa isn't putting up much of a fight and a large portion of North America is still asleep
---

Lead back under 100.

What is this thing that you call trends? I don't recognize such a concept anymore.

I don't think Tifa built up a big enough lead.
---

Looks like X might clutch this out after all

Still rooting for Tifa though
---

Of fuck no baby what is you doing

C'mon X dont let daddy long legs walk all over you
---

Knock-Knock open up the door it's real with the non-stop pop pop and stainless steel
---

Tifa's stalling now. She needs to stall out the next few hours (or at least keep it within a few hundred votes), because she should be able to win the end of the match.
---

17 vote cut RIP in pieces TIFA
---

Wow, this is easily the best match this contest. No idea who wins this.

Not enough votes.

I think MMX should have this, but it can still go either way.
Great match!
---

Shii it's gonna be a close one
---

Maybe I should rally my roommates. Old school
---

i figured X was done when i went to sleep but see he's still in it

let's go super fighting robot
---

X cut!

He gon' give it to ya
---

Go go X

Hes coming back
---

This thing has been at a virtual standstill for hours. Best match of the contest by far.
---

lol so much for his comeback. Tifa is just gonna stall this the rest of the way

*checks results*...

-Luigi dropping to a slightly more reasonable percentage.
-Yes! Tifa barely pulling the upset! My Oracle depends on her (even though I voted for MMX since he's way too cool). Too bad there's 8 long hours left, and I don't think she can resist for such a long time.
-Sephiroth still disappointing.
-Ryu looking slightly more respectable.
---

This is gonna be good

All I want is one match going down to the last update!
---

Congrats to the 5 people who managed to score full points. New first place Steevo_234, new third place hylianknight3, TheBiggerWiggle, pronouncemyname and Safer_777 got all 16 points yesterday.

Damn! First time I see this for me! Also 12th place? The best so far from me! And I have Yuna winning the division too! But anyways I know you don't care but hey nice for me.

Came back from work, checked the results. This is what I have to say.
1st match=Year of Luigi confirmed! Or Tails is very weak.
2nd match=Proof that Americans suck. One character is a hot woman with big tits, the other is a robot and they prefer the robot one. Of course. So yeah the big tittied one will lose.
3rd match=This seems strange. Sephiroth barely above 61%. Either Falcon is weak or Amaterasu has gotten really strong or Sephiroth has dropped a lot.
4th match=Big tits don't do good. Man why people don't like them? But impressive for Ryu
---

Amaterasu appears to just be really strong tbh
---

Yeah, people just keep underestimating her. I'd have taken her over Captain Falcon pre-contest.
---

gonna stay like this until final 2 hours of the match when europe starts going to bed
---

Yeah, I'm hoping X can just keep it close like this until the Eurasia vote dries up and he squeaks ahead at the very end.
---

Also this prooves that he isn't the strongest non N9er unless Tifa has boosted a lot.
---

So FF is slowly gaining strength while Pokemon is slowly losing strength?
