BOLD PREDICTION: Metal Gear would beat KH worse than Pokemon beat Star Ocean. --- Explicit Content I used to be Asian, but I didn't get good enough grades so my parents beat it out of me. - snalien |

I'm sure KH will rebound...'twas just a little unsettling to see HM that close. I don't think we're hardcore HM fans, are we? Well I know I am, but on a whole I doubt even a third of board 8 has ever played an hm game. That was so unbelievably awesome to see it lead for the first ten seconds or so. --- When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right. ~ Victor Hugo {WoT}~> Board 408 |

Awesome. Kingdom Hearts should get the tripling with relative ease. --- Board 8: Where people treat each other right. |

Also, BOOOOOOO at this board for not liking Kingdom Hearts. --- Board 8: Where people treat each other right. |

Meh. KH is my big upset pick. Or at least it was. I just don't want you talking about grossly wrong predictions with me. --- "Thank you, Mario. But our princess is in another castle." -Toad in Super Mario Bros. |

There seem to be a few off-the wall finalist choices in the top 50. I'm guessing those people were actually favourite brackets. TuRtLe ~~~ Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy. -trancer1 |

I'll talk about them all I want, dammit. Also, Halo/CV broke 111K by 2 votes. --- Explicit Content I used to be Asian, but I didn't get good enough grades so my parents beat it out of me. - snalien |

Do we still think the board has a hard on for KH, when it got doubled by Harvest Moon in the board vote? --- caps |

Oh wait, nvm. 73% already. As longas KH gets near 80%, I'm not too worried...yet. --- "Thank you, Mario. But our princess is in another castle." -Toad in Super Mario Bros. |

Honestly, if Kingdom Hearts can "only" triple Harvest Moon, Metal Gear is going to whip it into shape. --- "A huge void in her heart. It is filled not by darkness, but kindness from others." - Presea Combatir, the Empty Soul |

INCREASINGLY POPULAR PREDICTION: KH won't face MG, because CV is going to beat it. That's why I said "would" instead of "is going to."

Yeah, I kinda wish that my only perfect remaining didn't have Zelda as
a winner. It's got mostly board favorites except for that final. --- "A huge void in her heart. It is filled not by darkness, but kindness from others." - Presea Combatir, the Empty Soul |

Too bad they were trying to get it wrong. Most people's bracket rolled over and died today.

I'm surprised it won the board vote; really surprised. I barely ever
heard anyone say a word about liking hm enough to be glad to see it in
the contest. Mostly all I heard was 'Harvest moon got in over [insert
game that would probably also be jobber fodder here]?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

...did KH's % just go down? It better not be stabilizing below a tripling. ...Actually, on second thought, it better, since seeing CV destroy it would be awesome. --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |

Crazy Observation: Only 20/50 top 50 brackets have Final Fantasy winning the whole she-bang. Yep. Which means the leaderboard may as be called the top 20 right now. --- "An intellectual is a man who takes more words than necessary to tell more than he knows." |

I hope CV/KH is a barnburner, because MG's got this division locked up. And...with that Nintendo support and those sales, could Harvest Moon get a piece of that day vote?! <____________< --- Commit it to memory. |

Poor KirbyKhan ;.; Heh, KH lost some percentage. I hope KH can just barely make the tripling for my Analysis Crew pick and Oracle.

Castlevania will not beat Kingdom Hearts. I'm convinced. But only because you italicized "will not." --- "An intellectual is a man who takes more words than necessary to tell more than he knows." |

Silly mnm and EC. Trick question, Castlevania just proved yesterday there is no more day vote. Hence why MG is going to own faces come the Final Four. --- Commit it to memory. |
