For my money, still the greatest contest match ever.

Go Persona 4!

~*Simple Explanation of Extrapolated Standings*~
A = Strongest Character
B = Character Weaker than A
C = Character Weaker than B
To figure out a character's extrapolated percentage ---> [(CvB)(BvA)]/50 = CvA
To compare how C would do against B ---> [(CvA)/(BvA)]*50 = CvB
To figure out how B would do against A ---> [(CvA)/(CvB)]*50 = BvA

13 vote cuts on each of the last two updates. At that rate, Persona 4 would win by 37.

Almost fitting that we hit Mario vs. Crono II as we wind down what may become quite the storied last hour of contest itself.

If P4 pulls this off I still think XB never should've let it get this close in the first place even though I know a little better about P4's status in gaming

Just surprising to see this happen in the match where I expected a brutalizing instead of Smash/Mario >_>

I mean, same goes for putting a rally topic pretending that the match was going to end in a half hour hoping for urgency last minute votes.

I wouldn't say it's over. Persona 4 needs to rally like it's never rallied before. I'd say they're more like in a 3rd and 10 situation in their own 40 (to use a football analogy).

But with the caveat that Sonic vs. Mega Man was occuring at the same time, so everyone stopped talking about it a half an hour in.

Yeah, I really think Mario and Smash were really stronger the whole time, just not by as much as the final result insinuates. Now, if this match happened in 04 with the same result, I'd be thinking differently.

It's possible P4 has caught a bandwagon. Rallies are also playing a part here.
