Sackboy's breaking 35%.

Is RE really impressing here? The only character that's actually pulled a stellar performance so far is Wesker!

Wesker is like...the one cool thing about RE5. So yeah, not totally unexpected.

Yeah, but Sackboy won't have a night vote. He's a day character.

From: creativename | #297
Huh. I had Riku that match but I'm still in the top ten. Looks like the top tiers must have all had Riku.

Good news for me. Ryu's gotta win this tomorrow. A Ryu win would likely put me on the leaderboard.

Aw yeah, Sackboy with the board vote.

I don't make judgements over who got the board vote if the percentage changes less than 0.50% from the freeze to the second update. Usually, it might take a few updates to decide on who got the board vote.

Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls
Character Battle VIII - 85/108 - Today's Winners: Leon and Ryu

Leon probably gets the board vote due to brackets or something.

This will get ugly overnight though. I think Leons pushes over 65%, maybe close to 66%. Sackboy then cuts with the morning.

Everyone with a score of 26 or less got it wrong except for one person who has a score of 10.

The overall prediction percentage was terri... actually it wasn't that bad. That didn't stop the top tiers from getting murdered on this match, though. All the -6s and the -7 got the match wrong so the top bracket is now 8 points off perfect. The next few tiers after the -7 also had a poor performance. The -9s, -10s and -11s had a single digit prediction percentage. It isn't until the -14s that the prediction percentage goes over 20. If you go further down, the prediction percentage actually goes above 50 and even to the low 60s. The casuals killed Board 8 on this match.

7 people fell off the Top 50. mdgilb06, Silent_Alarm, Seang1978, masseffect90, XxSoulxX2, FuturisticTrunk and _Harmonica_ did not have Captain Falcon winning the match.

41 people got it wrong but survived. Current first place blitler, former second place PartOfYourWorld, former third place Saxophoninator, cyanlce, vash_131, andylt, Jman_gamerX8, KadenceInc, HeroicRoy, nintendogirl1, ToadYoshi, TeamRocketElite, bospsychopaat, Naomi_Diamond, Iamthekuzalol, Sonic_Factor, Chinballz, Dr_Football, GoldSlime35, RPGuy96, HopefulDeath, Draco1214, Luigi_Galaxy, Biggoron5, LegendaryGeno, 19001900, SyLenXoR, ranapuer, articuno2001, Dan_Kirby, Xeybozn, RBZelenka, DarkFalconX, running_lemon, Shadowhiei899, Randomcrazydude, Alastah98, bsmart08, Consolesonlyalt, Jinjo802 and Glucose7 also did not have Captain Falcon winning the match.

Congrats to the 2 people on the Top 50 who got it right. Evil_REmade and primewaker knew Captain Falcon would come through and their correct prediction shoots them into the Top 5.

Sackboy continues to cut percentage. I bet this will continue until at least the end of the first hour and probably a bit longer than that before the night vote favors Leon.

Wait a sec LBP is best during the day? But isn't Super Mario Galaxy horrible during that same timeframe? I thought...

...honestly, it wows me as to LBP's unexpected popularity on this site. The game doesn't sound like anything a GameFAQs user would like AT ALL, and yet it's going to end up as a low midcarder rather than the mid-fodder that charmander's x-stats peg LBP at. We need to see Galaxy vs. LBP in the next games contest. MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Riku managed to win 1 hour and came close to winning a couple of others. Falcon obviously had a great Power Hour and was pretty steady the first half of the match. Riku started doing noticeably better the second half of the match, for whatever the reason.

Boring match is boring, and I probably won't be here in the morning, so I'll say this now:

I would have picked Vault Boy > Sackboy without a second thought.

But bear in mind, I even considered taking Vault Boy > Leon...

wheresoever you go, go with all your heart

as a fervent Dante supporters over the years, I gotta say Ryu has a damn good shot at it... I'm kind of expecting him to win at this point.

Can't stop, won't stop.

Dante did better against Axel than Ryu did against Balthier. If Ryu somehow pulls it out I'm just going to blame DMC2 and call it a day.

As already stated, a great many people would have picked this. He might well have been the favorite. Lots of people were hyping Vault Boy up pre-contest, much more than were hyping Sackboy.
