A Master Hand nose picture would be very interesting.

I would send Ceej $10 if Tifa's pic in Tifa vs. Luigi is a closeup of her breasts.

I think you need a few more 0's for him to actually do it.

Obviously, a nose-pic would be Master Hand with a closed fist; who didn't have the ole' "I've got your nose!" trick pulled on them as a kid?

Master Hand vs. Luigi could be strategically constructed to give MH the appearance of picking Luigi's nose.

Holy crap... How did GFNW destroy so many brackets?... Non Board 8-ers I guess.... 3 Marios and a Crono bracket left.

And Yoshi jumps to an early awesome tripling. Hold it, dude!!

I think it just lends credence to the theory that almost all of the perfects left after Knuckles were just favorites brackets for fun.

And by that I mean the loss of so many perfects, not the prediction percentage. That's just whack.

Well, then apparently only 43.62% of the brackets are serious.

I guess a lot of people who had seen Gordon losing were going for the curse to be broken... Besides, casual brackers will just pick him because he's the higher seed... Most don't know either characters.

I want Pac-Man to win tomorrow, but then he'll suffer the same fate as he did with Luigi. (I think Ocelot will do better against Yoshi regardless on who wins)

Ocelot/Pac should be a fairly close match, and I think it'll take out a perfect.

FACT or FICTION: If Pac-Man wins, there will be NO perfects at the end of the first round.

Considering how crazy this contest has been so far, I'm half expecting for Pac-Man to wind up with an upset to close out Round 1. On that note, seems just Round 1 has completely demolished last year's contest as a whole completely in terms of enjoyability.

It's eerie how close Leon's prediction percentage is to Tina's when she beat Gordon. It's a .08% difference.

Kefka over Pac-Man was 43.50%, and Knuckles had nearly that exact same percentage against Kefka a year later, for what it's worth.

Yeah, I also see Pac Man/Ocelot being problematic. The way I see it, Pac Man is probably > Nemesis and Wily... so yeah... that doesn't leave Ocelot much breathing room.

hmm.. normally I'd expect pacman to have about 60% of the brackets, but the brackets seem to be putting a lot of faith in Sp2k5, where Ocelot won a couple of rounds. I'll say 50/50, and that 2 perfects will remain.

Yeah, Ocelot can at least get 51%, but Pac-man is pretty close to Kefka.

They never learn do they? GFNW. Gordon Freeman Never Wins. The perfects got decimated this round, everybody else didn't do much better. Actually the -2's did disproportionatly well, due to the "everybody on Board 8 is at -2" factor.

26 people fell off the Top 50 today. MadMeesecow, downblinkracer, roy_verschakele, Duzenberry, toneman887, Blackmage91, Akommandeur66, Vertebreaker, rpgking989, Kepu, Shrimpcracker89, ExBahamut, KB_Powerhead, joepilzD, dabears3511, pie14pie, DoglegsChampion, PenguinLancer, spyder27, FallenDramon, KefkaElf, PastorTrogdor, Metroid_Link, Knytedude, uNcLEo and zergrushfapfap had Gordon Freeman winning a match.

7 people lucked out and didn't fall off the Top 50 after getting the match wrong. brian577, GreatMasterNCA, Grevlin, PsychWardMike, klavo777, PayLessReturns and pbsfinest2004 also had Gordon Freeman winnings, they are now -1s.
