Had to enter Lycoris (リコリス) in again. Well, at least she has a better chance now...

One word: Cheaters

EDIT:

HAH!
Seems the admins at CC2 did not like the blatant cheating (Shino already had passed Haseo, despite being 400 votes down yesterday) and took it down:

Each time I check the poll it has new votes or places... seems a lot of resets are taking place.

In the morning I saw Kite with over 3000 votes, and currently he has only 900.

Haseo and Alkaid continue at the top...


Anyway...

I asked before, and no one answered.

People on this thread say Alkaid has more official art that all the epitaph users (minus Haseo and Atoli) combined. Yet I haven't seen THAT much... so, anyone care to link me to this suppossed art?

She doesn't have that many, unless you count fanart.

Hmm, I think thats an overstatement.

For Alkaid I recall:
Two Character Stances - .hack wikia Character Page
Two Wallpapers for Trilogy - (1 Partnered) Check Wallpaper Thread for Link
Four in the games (2 Partnered) - Desktop Background
Two of the official site for winning the polls (Partnered) - Under the Specials Section

Eight total with only two for the Character Art

Yeah, I suspected people were exagerating because they didn't like her winning the new poll.

Hey... two wallpapers for Trilogy? Where? I only found on the wallpaper thread (the link with the 13 wallpapers from the OST)

And you mentioned two under the special section... you mean the CC2 site? since it currently it only has the poll I mean.

Its located on GU's official site. As for the trilogy wallpaper one is from the Original Sound Track and the other is an advertisement. She and Shino are holding a case for the movie. Anyway returning to the polls, is anyone else concerned about the resets, with each one a fair amount of data is lost. There are only two days left and it seems to affect the results greatly each time.

LOLWUT. Hay thar, that's me. Yes, I don't want her to win the poll. Is that a problem, sir? I know she's most likely gonna win, but I have my rights to hate and hope. :x

The combined part was exagerrated, but she probably does have more art than some of the other major characters that DON'T include Haseo, Atoli, Ovan, etc.

Well... at the end I couldn't find either the advertisment nor those wallpapers


About the poll...

I think mostly they are doing rollbacks, instead of losing data. I mean... Kite suddenly got 3000 more votes and then it was reset... most likely they detect the usage of proxy's and the same person voting over and over again.

EDIT:
Did anyone catch who won at the end? It ended 40 minutes ago and the poll is now down.
Also... it seems they are still going to tabulate the votes. (Kite once again acquired over 3000 votes in 3 days)

No, unfortunately I didn't see who won at the end there.
But, I have a pretty darn good guess.

More than 1000 votes enter a day, so its not that surprising for character rise a little, and with the resets more votes were reentered. Its when the votes seem constant that it feels awkward. However there were some strange things, at one point both Kite and Alkaid had switched positions for a few hours, I took screen shots, however I forgot to paste it, and they switched back later. Anyway I was watching at 0 timer. Here's what I remember:

1. Haseo 4063 - 22%
2. Alkaid 3550 - 19%
3. Kite 3309 - 18%
4. Atoli 3115 - 17 %
5. Kite of the Azure Flame 1583 11%
6. Shino 673 8%

(The votes are being recounted, so the final outcome may be a little different)

PS. I forgot, there is an additional picture for Alkaid (Partnered) on Alcore, its the on front of the manga.

It's weird. I personally love Yowkow, but I hate the fact that she's such a big fan favorite when she doesn't contribute as much to the story as characters with amazing development like Ovan and Atoli do. >_>

I dunno why, but I was half expecting Subaru to make it up there in the polls... My own fangirlism speaking up? Or maybe because I remember how quite a few people liked her back when Sign was It, but now she's all but forgotten. >_> Nobody has appreciation for the take-no-nonsense characters anymore.

Personally, I'm more pissed at the fact that only one non-G.U. character made it into the top five than I'm pissed that AlkAIDS won.

Where's the first generation love!? It's so much superior to G.U..

That or Blackrose...
Blackrose might be in the upper levels, but she's not beating Alkaid in the polls. I don't think you grasp just how obscenely large the Alkaid fanbase truly is. It's almost like a tenth of my own.
Indeed there is no doubt in my head that Alkaid will win or be close to winning, but I will actually vote for Piros the 3rd :) Cuz I'm funny. If I can find the poll..
