I am guessing that EC will still win the first place prize due to
being the highest legit bracket. Moltar should be 2nd, and hochiminh
3rd. Dammit, swirldude, do not ignore me! I have defeated Master Moltar! I am X_and_Zero, and I will have third place! Lopen is king! --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

I only dropped from 11th to 20th with L-Block winning? WHOA. I sure
hope I win a prize. I'm worried that the fact that several gurus have
beaten me means the proportion of the highest ranks will abnormally
large as to being prize eligible, but then again you'd expect almost
none of the L-Block-winning brackets to been an eligible prize bracket.
.26% of the brackets called L-Block getting first...WOAH. That means...if there's 20,000 brackets, only 52 people had L-Block! WO! How many brackets were there, exactly? I forget. Someone with MC as the champ made the leaderboard. =P (musta had MC > L-Block in the finals?) Too bad there wasn't someone who had Gordon Freeman winning it on the final leaderboard. If I do my calculation correctly... with Gordon Freeman as champ, you could conceivably have gotten... 128+124+120+112+96+64 = 644 points! --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those.

think he said that it was a couple topics ago but not sure. i can confirm that. it had a few minor differences like Dante > Leon instead of Vivi > Dante and Sonic > Sora instead of Sonic > Squall. i thought it would be funny to have a bracket on the Top 50 with L-Block as the champ early on. instead, it finishes in second place..... --- WARNING: EXPLICIT CONTENT... is the guru champion of awesomeness. |

This match has a lot of parallels to yesterday's, actually. (Other than the lead change) After all, second place would beat first place both times if they weren't being LFFed by third place. o.O And 'lol' fourth place. <_< |

?Block makes use of square SFF. This SFF does double against cubes, for
it's a 3D square. Square SFF is only half as effective on other two

One last shock for the end of the contest. I'd really started to think
L-Block had become invincible...but nope! After all that, Nintendo
manages to steal the last laugh. L-Block's still in second place, though. And that's probably where it's most comfortable anyway. Now the question is, when do the contest newbies leave? (And do I leave with them...?) |
