I have looked ahead and see that Shana still has matches against current #2 AND #3. As far as I can tell, the necklace is Shana's to lose, in many ways. If Shana lose, I think whomever that defeated Shana will likely win the Aquamarine necklace, and thus the 2nd and 3rd best chances belong to Nanoha and Tomoyo.

ARENA 29 Kinomoto Sakura vs. Kasuga “Ōsaka” Ayumu

The dread rematch of the 2002 Saimoe Finals.
Somehow it seems a little too one sided now.

"All fire to Osaka!"

[maglor]

My scheme.

votes and explanationsShow

1: Yuki over Chii : Normally silent Yuki has much more lines compared to Chii

2 Maria over Knowledge : You won't find me voting against Maria except in extreme situation

3 Konata over Yuuhi : Sorry Yuuhi but Konata by a hair

4. Amu over Mai : Amu's lack of success is rather a surprise to me.

5. Vita over Rena : I happen to like Vita

6. Nayuki >>>>>>> Ayu : Nayuki is superior

7. Mikoto over Suigintou : I'm an electrical engineer thus drawn to electrical phenomenon.

8. Shiki over Nagisa : obligatory anti-KyoAni vote

9. Tsukasa over Index : Tsukasa has more moe moments

10. Aya over Louise : Say no to SM

11. Yami over Evangeline : Coin toss

12. Holo over Nagi : Confirmed deity over questionable one.

13. Hayate over Nagi : Hayate needs to get over Nagi

14. Kyou over Reimu : The thigh over arm pit

15. Minori over Hanyuu : I don't have horn moe

16. Shinku over Kotomi : Another obligatory anti-Clannad vote

17. Taiga over Sayuri : Taiga has more moments

18. Shana, Marisa, Abstain : Insufficient data

19. Kagami over Mei : This was close, though

20. Remilia over Fuko : Throwing the touhou a bone.

21. Rika over Kallen : Rika isn't bad

22. Fate over Anya : Anya doesn't score high in my moe meter

23. Tomoyo over Misuzu : I choose the Supergirl over Sickly girl

24. Suiseiseki over Illya : I just find it hard to vote for Illya

25. Akari over Saber : Akari is moe and much more. Saber more of Gar than moe, and I still think Akari has more moments where she just shined.

26. Alice over C.C. : Yes, I am an Undine fan.

27. Ami over Nanoha : Ami may be the one of the best character of year.

28. Hinagiku over Tamaki : As much as I would like to vote for Tamaki, THIS IS HINAGIKU!!!

29. Sakura over Osaka : Osaka didn't beat Sakura in their last encounter for some good reasons.

30. Kirino over Makoto : Golden Lion should rule over fox.

31. Rin over Shiori : much as I like Shiori, there is more to be liked about Tosaka.

32. Mikuru over Haruhi : Haruhi! Stop bullying the poor Asahina

I have looked ahead and see that Shana still has matches against current #2 AND #3. As far as I can tell, the necklace is Shana's to lose, in many ways. If Shana lose, I think whomever that defeated Shana will likely win the Aquamarine necklace, and thus the 2nd and 3rd best chances belong to Nanoha and Tomoyo.

Shana is defintely the favorite to win the Necklace right now. Of the charcters that can go 9-0, Shana has the toughest opponents. Based on what Nanoha has done do far, I don't think she has the power to beat Shana. Tomoyo has a shot, but not a very good one. Since Strength of Schedule of Defeated Opponents is likely to be the deciding tiebreaker, beating Shana doesn't mean you'll win the Necklace. The Strength of Schedule of Defeated Opponents tiebreaker is based on the quality of opponents a character faces, not how powerful the character actually is. The character just needs to be stronger enough to go 9-0 (or 8-1 if none of the other characters go perfect). So narrowly defeating 9 upper midcarders is considered a significantly better performance than clearing beating two or three elites and completely smashing low tier characters. While beating Shana might mean you were the strongest for the Aquamarine Period, if the other characters fought were fodder you're unlikely to win the Necklace. I haven't really checked to see if Nanoha and Tomoyo are likely to have high or low Strength of Schedule of Defeated Opponents.

[maglor]

I just like to point out that the current schedule balancing format makes it very hard for someone to meet 7 or more candidates who will likely end up in top 20, unless we get large influx of new voters.

My votes, no predictions.

What a nice proof of love but now nonrelevant, cause she had all battles she could win, now she'll only have decisive loses.

[Demi.]

Of this period, maybe..

[ithekro]

4 out of 63 stages completed. Loading stage 5.

Well, If you don't like the coin, convince me to ditch that coin and pick Evangeline.

Dealing with your taste again?

[Cecaniah]

@ Demi
That's fine, cause I'm doing the same thing, I can't betray Anya (Until she's against C.C.), So Fate wont get my vote. Though Fate will win anyway. Even if I campaigned. Anya doesn't have a big enough fanbase. I just hope she's not totally killed. And this isn't kind of a hate thing. I do like Fate, but she's not the top.

unless i missed something, this round looks a bit so-so. probability of upsets is very low as compared to last round - which consequently means it's not going to be pretty for some of my top picks. oh well.
