Frog would beat Wesker with 51.99%, which is his way of winning 75-25 >_>

in Frog's math, I think so. I'm looking forward to seeing Samus/Frog to see what happened in that match.

I'm calling 70.99% of the brackets for Auron. It's low, but I think that's my crappy PPC prediction so I may as well stick with it.

Time's closing in for Solid/Manny, so I gotta ask: is there any percentage that Solid could hit that would convince you he would be going to the Final Four?

No, because Manny is too much of a wild card. The only thing we could say is that there is a percentage low enough to convince us Snake is in trouble.

If he hit 95% I'd almost be convinced. 96 and I'd burn my bracket, as Bowser wouldn't stand a chance.

not against fodder. he could do 95% and it wouldn't change my mind any. I think Bowser/Chun Li will give us a better idea than this one will.

If Snake gets under 85% then Zelda/Vivi will beat him. Just a wild prediction.

I feel the same way. Manny could potentially be nearly at tanner level, although I really hope he isn't.

Snake wouldn't be expected to get 85% against Guybrush, so I wouldn't hold not getting 85% on Manny as a sign against him.

If he gets low 80s, then we can worry.

If he gets under 83%, I'll feel pretty good about Bowser > Snake. If he hits 90%, I'll start to be worried.

The sheer level of Manny's unknown-ness will surprise all.

I doubt he'd even get Snake anti-votes (do those even exist?) for being so unknown.

If he somehow hits 90%, I'll call it a day. I don't think Guybrush can be that much stronger than Manny.

Of course Snake anti-votes exist. That's what all of Tanner's strength comes from. He doesn't get fan votes.

I'd say reaching 100 votes this quickly is at least a moral victory for Manny.

I'd tend to agree considering how grim fandengo was more or less unknown around here before shake started advertising it. Which was awesome of him mind you.

It's good, but Ganondorf had better. Maybe Tommorow will have a group go perfect.

5 people fell off the Top 50 today. HikariArtemis, Popcornball, FloppyCancer, vgxtremist and Demonsthenes did not have Auron winning the match.

Keeping Snake under 80% for nearly 10 minutes is damned impressive. Congratulations Manny, and Shake.
