Arthas with 14% at the freeze? Time for a BOLD STATEMENT FIVE MINUTES IN, or, as I like to call it, a BS in 5. My Thrall pick is looking puh-retty good! --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Arthas is about as far away from Diablo as Big D is from KOS-MOS. Nice, WC fanboys. I could even give him a slight chance to pull this off here. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Does the partial stats mean that 30% of bracket-makers had Knuckles getting first? Hahahahaha! --- I'm an eel. |
PortugalTheMann | Posted 9/3/2007 9:09:05 PM | message detail |
Initial impressions: Arthas is really impressing me here, and Mega
Man... oh Mega Man, you pathetic little bastard. I'm hoping this is
more of just the bracket voters abandoning MM in the opening minutes
and he increases his % from here on out. Already, we have about 200
more votes than we did yesterday after the first freeze, and I'm loving
how KOS is doing. It looks like she's going to able to build a nice
little lead for herself overnight, which should make things very
interesting come day time, if Diablo puts that day vote to good use.
Right now I'm happy with the results, but it's still far from over. --- Explicit Content. I wish Lei Fang were my mom. I'd like drug her and feel her up and stuff. - Ken |

Cecil XIX | Posted 9/3/2007 9:11:14 PM | message detail |
Boy, I misread how points work. I though that we got two points if we
got both of them in the correct order, one if we got both of them in
the incorrect order. But instead it's two for every *character* we get
in the correct order, and one for every *character* we get right at all. So even if this Arthas pick doesn't work out, I'm still getting two points. ^_^ --- Wow, an intelligent criticism of Zeta. Never thought I'd see the day. - AmuroNT1 |
Master Moltar | Posted 9/3/2007 9:11:21 PM | message detail |
Mega Man needs to rise to heaven and fast. And Diablo is a bit too close too early. I might actually have to really on Arthas doing well to keep him back. --- Moltar Status: The Analysis Crew...believe Arthas/Diablo/KOS-MOS/Mega Man - Bracket: Mega Man > KOS-MOS - Vote: Mega Man (4/4) |
__Mega64__ | Posted 9/3/2007 9:11:22 PM | message detail |
What's more surprising to me is Knuckles being in first for 30% of the brackets, yet Yoshi's second in less than 10%. Unless I'm totally misinterpreting the correct/partial percentages, which is the only way this makes any sense other than the casuals being idiots. --- I'm an eel. |
MegatokyoEd | Posted 9/3/2007 9:11:47 PM | message detail |
By the way everyone on the WoW forums that posted in the thread, pretty much went with Diablo instead. --- Demyx is better than Axel. I don't like Haley Scarnato |
Karma Hunter | Posted 9/3/2007 9:11:54 PM | message detail |
I really don't think Thrall would be near Arthas in strength. I've always seen Arthas as the strongest WC character. Indeed he is, but Thrall is no slouch himself, and with a good iconic picture (not unlike what Arthas has now) he has a damn good chance of beating out his *really* weak competition. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

I really don't think Thrall would be near Arthas in strength. I've always seen Arthas as the strongest WC character. I dunno. If you pin most of their strength to WoW, I'd say Advantage Thrall. Thrall is in-game. However, if it's mainly WC3, then yeah, Arthas wins. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? SC2k6 (190/240) 99.4958 Percentile |

Only 17% managed to get the first match correct. Looks like many members on B8 will be on the leaderboard after round 1. |
Lopen | Posted 9/3/2007 9:12:37 PM | message detail |
How well do you people expect Mega Man to do? Give the guy a break,
here! He's nearly winning a 3v1 match against two solid midcarders and
probably a high fodder by the looks of it in Arthas. I've got all the faith in the world in Mega Man and I wasn't expecting him to break 50% by much. --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

<I really don't think Thrall would be near Arthas in strength. I've always seen Arthas as the strongest WC character. Oh, yeah, Arthas is certainly the strongest Warcraft has to offer, but Thrall's competiton is even worse and there's no one there to steal any of his votes -- no Diablo, for instance. I'm thinking the Warcraft fanboys will be enough to overcome someone as weak as Vergil. --- Experiment status report update: Metroid project 'Dread' is nearing the final stages of completion. |

I really want to see some Guru numbers.. I have no idea who the
favourite even is here. I assumed it was Diablo but there seems to be a
lot of KOS support. and yeah, pretty sure people are antivoting the obvious #1s. Mega Man's shooting up like crazy here. --- "where the heck does diablo get his votes from on weekends? He should be losing because christians are fresh from the church and voting against evil" -voltch |

enough to overcome someone as weak as Vergil. Where did this thought process come from? Judging from his contest appearance and just what I'd expect, Vergil's a low midcarder. Arthas is surprising me, but give me Vergil to outdo Arthas's performance pretty easily here. --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |
