This is a crisis. Crono had a 2207 lead last night, but has lost it with the day vote, and Sonic now leads by 762. If Crono does not retake the lead tonight, this will be the largest successful comeback in the history of these contests. Admittedly Crono's prospects are very dim right now, but here are a few hopeful points:
Knuckles' lead on Magus last year peaked at 5:50 Eastern- in 5 minutes. Vincent Valentine was able to come back some 300 votes in the last 2 hours against Sonic this year despite being down by over 5000. That means Crono's potential to come back is larger, as he needs less of a percentage swing to swing the same number of votes. The trends today will probably be between the trends of those matches, as some people have school today (Veterans' Day) but many do not, whereas Vincent/Sonic was on a normal school day and Knux/Magus was in the Summer.
I think 900 or so is the point of no return here. That's the most I think Crono can come back tonight. Go Crono! Rally the hordes!
