...okay, how the hell are there as many CATS entries in the top 50 as Samus?

ALL YOUR BRACKET ARE BELONG TO CATS!!!

*ahem*

Anywho, Yuna should gain during the day...I'm not surprised that the board's vote going heavily for dear ol' Ganondorf.

Whoops,I meant...

He'll be around 66% by the end of the night. But Ganon will pick up during the day...

I wouldn't expect Yuna to gain throughout the day at all. In fact, I would say the nighttime would favor her more than anything.

this is true, but only 2 Samus brackets? that's improbable as hell, especially compared to Mario and Crono.

Look at the flood of Mario and Crono on the leaderboard. This is going to be great for my bracket when Samus beats them both.

Favorite/poor quality brackets are faster to fill out than winning ones.

Oh really?

I thought he had to get over 70% since Yuna is weak as hell.

Score-Brackets-% Right

4------13026----57.6615999
3------9270-----49.7195254
2------3547-----41.3025092
1------490------23.0612245
0------78-------30.7692308

This is our first seeding upset and as many guessed the -1's did better than the perfects, just barely though. The 0's did a lot better this time compared to yesterday's disaster. 70% of them got it "right".

The Top 50 did pretty well. Only 11 people didn't have Frog winning. DEFCON_5, Zenin, soraspawn, QuadraSlicer, booke55555, Dynamastersora, kirbykirby2005, wackymonkeys, grantgamer, deft_Y2k and GeneralOtto are no longer perfect.

In other news, Top 50 newcomers LordZilong and ksakura absolutely rock. =D

Indeed. I would expect him to be gaining a couple of percentage points come morning and then stick around there for a majority of the match.

I gave 2K3 Yuna a generous 2.34% boost from FFX-2, and didn't change Ganon, and she's projected to get 37.44%.

After giving Ganon the same boost as Link got, Yuna is projected to get 34.17% (this is keeping the boost I gave Yuna).

Ganondorf is rocking this match.

hehe, I don't actually care about people not picking Samus, I just thought it was awfully improbable.

Yuna's almost at 33% here. she may avoid a doubling after all.

Well, it seems that Ganon is going to do about 10-11% better on Yuna than Knux did.

Speaking of Knux, kinda funny how he's facing Magus, while Ganon gets Yuna now.

She should definitely get him under 66% before morning comes, but he'll get right back there with the morning vote.

Because it put her at exactly 26%, which is 3 less buttons I had to push on my calculator. :P
