Tanner 2k4 was expected to get 17% on Ratchet 2k4, so at least Eddie Riggs isn't *that* bad.

Woot go Ratchet! 10+ years of great games and you finally get a win! I love this contest.

There are some cheap tricks to earn enough bolts, IIRC. You should definitely get it in Going Commando, at least. Too beastly.

Also, Riggs has already made it a lot more respectable after that board vote. Maybe my 60% Oracle won't look too crappy in 12 hours.

Totally called this one. Last night, I claimed this match could turn out to be a blowout similar to Isaac/Layton on account of Brutal Legend not really selling too well. Plus, Eddie Riggs sounds like he could be very bad fodder too.

Too bad my Oracle prediction doesn't reflect this blowout at all, although I was able to raise it up to around 59%.

Eddie Riggs is officially weaker than Sandal, because WCC should be able to at least double Ratchet.

At least you're not in the same position but with Eddie Riggs over Ratchet! And I have Ryu > Dante, so if I don't get on the leaderboard before then, I ain't getting on this contest.

I'd be on the leaderboard if I had chosen an unconventional winner! Should've went with a crazy Snake run or another L-Block repeat or something equally ridiculous!

The last perfect goes down on this match. It was a good run Dr Football. This is another match where those with high scores did worse than those with low scores. The -2s and -3s managed to stay above 50%. Then you have to go down to the -13s before they break 50% again.

19 people fell off the Top 50 today. vpHigherlove, TheMightyPeanut, Ninja4820, l33tcpu, Mithos17, evilevi13, Soul_Reaver4, smasherx, chocoboslayer, FireLaserBeam, lolo262626, Rainerrria, DDRKirbyISQ, adub119, RappinHobo9292, Kettchup, RPGuy96, RaptorVinny and _G_R_U_N_T_ did not have Jecht beating Phoenix.

8 people got the match wrong and survived. Former first place and the final perfect bracket Dr_Football, lancealots_son, Sonic_Factor, masseffect90, manticore16, t33kay, Krillin373 and sonicgamer262 also did not have Jecht winning.

the one pick I'll be most happy to get wrong in my bracket is Soap tearing through his first two matches. I actually had him doing so until someone brought up Bioshock 2 being released a week before the match (?) and that has swayed me to the Daddy. I deserve to get it wrong and Soap is cool anyway.

Big Daddy had a pretty good ASV last year, actually. I'm thinking he almost beat Balthier outright with it or at least came close.
