So, this is jumping ahead a bit, but does anyone think that Auron's prediction percentage might be quite low, just because of people picking FFVII ALWAYS WINS?

Well 75% of brackets had Mega Man advancing, heck 56% only had Zack advancing. I don't think that many people go that route.

It'll be interesting to see how many casuals think Aerith wins that one.

Speaking of INTERESTING, here's the chart from the night match!

Pikachu actually did relatively better overnight, and Banjo improved somewhat during the morning. The shifts weren't very large one way or the other though.

"The great GF...Bahamut."
"...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..."

Taking a quick look Aeris was the favourite to take first over Squall in 2007 (though order mattered?). In 2006 Zelda destroyed her in prediction. Even in round 2 28% of brackets had her losing to KOS-MOS, Marle or Amy Rose.

I still can't believe I picked Ellis to win this. I mean, cripes - that's just bad.

By the way, I think Banjo would probably 60-40 Ellis.

To be fair, he's probably the least-likable non-Francis L4D character. We need Bill or Coach in the contests instead!

From: TheCodeisBosco | #226

It would probably be worse. I doubt a L4D1 character would get close to Banjo, and I'd take any of those guys to kill the sequel's character. I'm sorry to keep repeating myself, but how the HECK did Ellis make this bracket?

I'm sorry to keep repeating myself, but how the HECK did Ellis make this bracket?

During the nomination period, he actually seemed to have some decent hype. Oddly enough, though, Coach seemed to be the most talked-about L4D character, and yet he didn't even make the write-in polls...

So, who would you guys say is the turkey of the round now? Arthas was my top choice before, but now it's a toss-up between him and Ellis.

---
Chop Chop Master Onion for Character Battle '11!

Eh, someone like Ellis shouldn't be turd of the round because, even as bad as this is, most people knew he was going to be fodder and most expected Shepard to win fairly easily. Fodder getting blown out worse than we thought isn't really grounds for turd of the round.
---
"I can set you free, mate."
"My freedom was forfeit long ago!"

Yeah even though I had Ellis I knew he was going to lose once I found out ME2 was going to be released. Arthas seems to be the favourite.

You definitely have a point, but still, this does kind of push the envelope a bit - I'd call it a Mr. Driller-esque performance, but to be blunt, that would be an insult to Mr. Driller.

Also, I forgot to mention Liquid Snake in my last post - he's definitely a contender too, though Arthas is probably a little worse.

Liquid Snake only looked worse after Ezio bombed to Simon and even then Altair could be that much stronger than Ezio.

Ken was underwhelming, but as far as pathetic victories go, Kratos has him beat.

Arthas a little worse? He lost to freaking Kefka!

KEFKA!!

Arthas is the turd of the freaking contest! No ways around that.
---
Calling Pokemon RBY a top 10 game was the most insane contest jibba-jabba ever
Woe unto he who sig bets with the near-invincible Lord High creativename

and yeah, as arthas biggest supporter here, I say he's the turd of the round. Not only did he lose to Kefka, Kefka broke 60% on him.

And when Terra crushes Darth Revan and Kefka gives Bowser a fight for his life maybe he won't look so bad.

Strange thing is if you use Arthas's first match as is, it actually predicts his match with Kefka perfectly.

Funny how that works.

---
Oracle Challenge 2k10 - Rank: 15th
Today's prediction: Shepard with 60.65% Status: absolute crap

Arthas is the clear frontrunner for Turd. Here are the matches which can potentially change that:

Auron loses in a shocker
Revan loses handily to Terra
Crono loses to Missingno (although in this case, no one would be left to proclaim him a Turd)
Gordon channels the spirit of his pre-2005 self and loses to Peach

If Big Daddy manages to curb-stomp him (I.E. 60% or more), Soap could be a contender as well.

---
Chop Chop Master Onion for Character Battle '11!

I'd say Soap is too much of a questionmark to call a turd, especially since Big Daddy is the heavy favorite in the guru anyway.
---
http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg
I Am Albion Hero!

Daddy is the favorite in that one (by about the same margin Arthas was favored over Kefka). It would have to be Soap winning with 60%, which I guess is still possible.

You can't use 7% like that. 40-47% and 13-20% are different. Terra would double Carmen Sandiego back then.

Also if Terra smashes Revan is would provide support that Kefka got a boost and would thus not make Arthas look so bad.

Wait, Big Daddy is the favorite? I could have sworn Soap had more support!

Never mind then. Arthas probably has the title unless Gordon and/or Revan suffer humiliating losses as well.

---

Soap probably has more support now after Price's performance on X.

Don't know if he's the favorite though
