And if you take this performance at direct value, Yoshi's Island = Super Mario RPG! No one really believes that though, do they? *Raises hand* --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: Chrono Trigger > SMW2: YI Points: 45/60 |

Its really too bad about CT as it really got screwed by the draw. There
is no way it makes it past FFVII/FFIII/CT/LTTP even if it is stronger
than FFIII and LTTP. --- --NL-- |

EB looking a bit better now and CT is off to a good start. I figured it wouldn't impress. Yoshi's Island will wreck everything later. Should end up in the high-20's at least. --- Moltar Status: you can't hide forever Match 16 - Bracket: CT > SMW2 - Vote: Earthbound (46/60) |

What was the consensus on tomorrow's match? I'm assuming you all think
Majora's Dud will take first? Needless to say, that is wrong. R/B/Y
will win, obviously. --- The corpse's bitter crimson tears flow and mingle with the endless sand, feeding the chaos within me and making me stronger. |

You and others were fighting it to the end. Don't act like you weren't now Of course we were, because it's fun to debate for a game you like. I don't even have EB in my bracket. Some of these reactions are just ridiculous. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

Huh, CT isn't doing badly despite having two other SNES RPGs to
(theoretically) drag it down. I guess we'll see how it holds up in the
day, but 50% doesn't seem unreasonable. --- http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g320/HowDisturbing/stayawhile.jpg Stay a while and breathe me in. |

Pretty good start for CT, I expected mid fifties and it should hit
that. Normally I'd expect CT to have a better board vote, but EB and YI
probably diluted it by a good amount. --- Mustache...and Green... http://backloggery.com/rpguy96 |

There's playing Devil's Advocate, then there's spamming the stats topic for weeks about a complete pipe dream "upset" I've voted SMW2:YI and don't like EB much, for the record, and have been EXTREMELY humble with my upset pick here. I've also openly doubted it for awhile now and even several times today. I'll leave it at that. --- Prototype Shorthand, do you speak it?! |

CT looks good to finish in the 55%ish area. EB and YI should fall quite
a lot overnight; much more than CT gives back with Europe and the day. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |
