For some reason I see LoZ getting over 80% easy, though that may be me just too used to the blowouts the big boys put up in the first round.

Hey, I'm rooting for MMX to do as well as possible, but after what FF did to Diablo, I'm convinced that FF and Zelda are just THAT far above everything else. Maybe MMX will prove me wrong.

My favorites bracket has 12 points right now, same as my normal bracket. Kinda sad.

Though this round the slaughter will start. About half of my round 2 picks were eliminated in round 1... heh heh.

My sincerest apology, brother. I was so eager to see you and couldn't concentrate on the preparation of the bash.

A good start for loz. Given how it started gaining percentage after the latter half of that minute, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest to see it over 80% by next update.

Fiction. If MMX can keep this up (with a very large potential of SFF), I think MG can just escape the doubling. But not by much.

Overall Prediction Percentage: 96.21%

Close but not quite. 4 perfects fall so we still haven't seen a perfect 100 prediction percentage. What kind of bracket gets 15 straight then chokes on Shadow Hearts? No idea. All three zeroes make it through! Congrats to lcadwallader, Allison_Pryce, and NotyouTwo for a perfect 0 bracket.

Of the four perfects who fell, one was on the Top 50! Capt_Donald3 has fallen for having Shadow Hearts over Resident Evil.

Fact or Fiction: Final Fantasy and Zelda will at least double everything except SMB.

I'll say fact, and I'll take it a step further: with the way the bracket's set up, the big three will break 70% in all of their matches (except against each other, obviously).

What kind of bracket gets 15 straight then chokes on Shadow Hearts?

Some of the perfect brackets left are probably favourite brackets. That's the only reasonable explanation I can think of for 15 brackets that stayed perfect so long to fall in such a match.

Technically MGS is two discs. >_<

And won't even be remembered for it, seeing as how it's already been done before. That might be a plus, though.

Another nice gain there. Hopefully it freezes after rising a bit more, so we can get video footage of KH eating two mgs discs. >_>

I dont think FF will break 80 on Mega Man.

It just doesnt have the SFF factor that Zelda has.
