Why does this thread still exist? it's over; classicism is dead.  Sorry /r/btctards, dump and get out of the way.
its only just begun

now that classic has >5% hashing power it has veto power over segwit.
obviously core (~95% hashing power) has veto power over 2MB
with this veto power, a compromise is just around the corner.

maybe we'll get 1.256MB now + Segwit later, who knows...

if anything this thread is dead because classic isn't #R3KT

It seems to me that if one group controls 94% of the hashpower, and another controls 6% of the hash power resulting in a stand-off, it is highly likely that the group with 94% would be much more likely to be able to (temporarily or permanently) expand their hash power to break the stalemate.
expensive but doable... nothing is stopping the other side from matching the incress in order to keep >5%

It is a more likely a scenario that more classic miners will defect as 95% is approached. It would be quite humurous indeed if classic tries to stonewall segwit and show themselves to be hypocrites demanding immediate capacity and overall not being opposed to segwit in principle for the most part and than delay these 2 things.
