Uh...not sure about that steve.

Afterall, KH has show already that it has a massive day vote, and MG show that it does somewhat....bad on the day vote. Combine the two, and well, it shouldn't be even close to your prediction. Let's see how this match keeps on, though.

And the first part of the poll was obviously Alucard sneaking in to help his Konami brethren out. All part of the plan.

Guys, Metal Gear ain't finishing with over 60% here. How it opens a match is never where it finishes. It's always far below.

Overall prediction percentage: 89.78%
Everyone with a score of 7 or less got the match wrong.

Nice job here. The perfects and -1s both get a perfect 100 prediction percentage. All the way down to the -10s get a prediction percentage above 90. Nobody fell off the Top 50 today.

True, but it should still finish above 58%. I was pretty sure Kingdom Hearts would get at least 42%.

I can't see it drop below 58% from here if it ends up stabilizing. Though that was a bit of a percentage drop there, so maybe not. =/

My "bold prediction" was that Metal Gear would finish every match in its division with above 58% -- even bet my account on it!! So it doesn't really need to stay above 60%.
