Cecil with a somewhat strange amount of bracket support

Wow, Cecil's high bracket support is really interesting.

Tends to make me think his strength is legit.

Perhaps we've all been fooled.

Maybe Cecil really is almost as strong as Knuckles.

Maybe Lightning is a midcarder without a game.

There's nothing surprising about Lightning being a low midcarder- she already acted like on in the vote-in poll for one.

Guru Contest - Knuckles (214/225, 95%)
BOP - Knuckles (68/68, 100%)

Have we ever beated the casual bracket makers this badly before? The users with perfect brackets and -1 do better than average, but nowhere near as well as the people on the board. The casuals probably knew it was going to be a close match, but it's the board that walks away with the points.


28 people fell off the Top 50. This is a fair bit worse performance than the other perfects. Dunncor, RikkuSwirls, MrMonster, BobTDonut, Higatron, abilitiesz, magicalpony, megamanfreakXD, Shiny_GaLLLade, Mekibos, manticore16, Marthswordsman4, tinfoilman2, Rocco_the_Saint, Pondos, StriderTuna, Red_Thunder777, Stupid_Stu, CurtManX3, Ness22, Woopow, hikaru_beoulve, pillowboy, genericname1234, ejzzje, PeaceOut64, Gigatar and geodukemon through Cecil would beat Knuckles. Maybe if it was a night match they would have been right.

why does asia hate zelda?

Looking at Asia and the Philippines, it seems like the Philippines is more extreme than Asia as a whole in their dislike of Nintendo (except Pokemon) and more extreme in their love of Square. Note how Mewtwo has 85.71% in the Philippines, but only 67.86% in Asia as a whole.
