Total decimation. All the perfects fell. Every last one of them. All the 1's fell too(assuming they were aiming for 0). This is the first contest ever where a perfect has not made it out of Round 1

23 people fell off the Top 50 today. StormWolf12, darkone_420, cfries01, Kod_dawg68, Vanhugen, WuTugu, PKFlashOmega, JohnDeere04, DDRSoulEdge7, whybanme, Johnition, Spelich, Dog_of_War, donutboi, klavo777, HalfThere, OK_Undertow, SraTycoon, flamerz, Haste2, Vip3r_Vixen, Darren1986 and rayvenwynd had Ocelot beating Pac-Man.

The four former pefects, Just_Jeff, lightspear, jambaman and whitman05, also had Pac-Man losing but remain on the Top 50 as -1s.
