There have been too many matches this contest where the first fifteen or twenty minutes are completely different from the rest.

Yeah, if MC pulls this off, there's no way I'm not getting the point. But I so wanted to go with Subby here...

(also guyz I think MC might be overrated)

Heh, go Subby. This was an upset that was nawing at me ever since I saw it, right now it's looking like a good gamble...but still very early!

An oddly poor performace by the perfects. The -1s and -2s had a higher overall prediction percentage. The -1s actually did really well. They were the only group to break 80.

8 people fell off the Top 50 and despite almost a third of the Top 50 being -1s, all of them were perfects. IFMalice, axle55, Edhelhin, cdw01, KyleAllTogather, Verithan, xenogold and holymagician lost their perfect brackets from choosing Alucard over Auron.

Special congrats to AppleKidPlant. He has Phoenix Wright as the main bracket champion and lost his perfect and spot on the Top 50 after Phoenix lost to Gordon Freeman. Now he's back in 50th place depsite the fact that his final pick is no longer in the contest!

MC underperformed on CATS, almost lost to DK and then got almost 40% on Crono. He's more than likely always gonna underperform on weaker characters and overperform on strong ones

"The backing of Sub-Zero by the people here is sickening, folks!!"


Theres nothing great about Master Chief as a character. At least Sub Zero is a ninja and has a spine rip fatality. Plus he can freeze people. >_>

RPGuy96 | Posted 10/12/2006 9:16:44 PM | message detail
Master Chief wins for being such great casual bait. The top two first round upsets are StarCraft over Halo and Castlevania over Halo...and if Subby wins I'd expect this to hit the top 3. :p

On another note, fifteen minutes into its match with Halo, Castlevania had a lead of 204 with 3698 total votes.
Sub-Zero has a lead of 159 with 3803 total votes.
