Well I'm leaving until afternoon. I have better things to do than watch a "nailbiter" between two games I could care less about.

I have no idea how Metroid: Other M got any scores lower than 60%.

That seems like a strange thing to write about CT/LTTP considering that match had more lead changes than any other match ever, and was very much a tension-filled slugfest.

Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest.

TheOneAboveAll | Posted 10/21/2010 6:20:07 PM | message detail
But that was the point. The tension wasn't from crazy swings; it was just from not knowing who will have the lead in 2 minutes. So we have the same thing here.

And Fable is slicing off percentage in NA now pretty steadily. It should take this unless something can reverse this trend.

Honestly this makes no sense. TF2 going up to a 200 vote lead, then Fable storming back. There's just no trend here that's being followed.

What is this match?

I'm pretty late on this but here's my usual Top 50 report on the previous match:

Score-Brackets-% Right
2--------10886----82.37
1--------19258----87.21
0--------1170------81.11

Amusingly the -1s did better than the perfects. Both groups did well, though. We lost a ton of zero brackets on this match somehow. They almost did better than the perfects did.

12 people fell off the Top 50 during the previous match. TheRealDaco, ScorpionX3, LIKOPFE, pkdragon, Pujos_PL, SlimReaper, timberwolfbobby, Brett_with_Susa, DeuceReverse, mr_snoops, LordMoe and jimwood27 did not have Batman: Arkham Asylum beating Psychonauts.

lol honestly, I'm not that surprised. I hate to make sweeping generalizations like this, but it seems to me that most people that chose Deus Ex for the upset probably did so because they thought it deserved to win, not because they actually know anything about voting trends or did any research. So it wouldn't surprise me that those same people would choose Psychonauts to win over Batman.

It wouldn't be all that thrilling if one of them just took off either. At least we're seeing two games that really, really want this Round 2 spot.

I wouldn't want every match to be like this, but it's a nice change of pace.

This contest has so much cheater in it. There is no way that so many of these polls would stay with 50 votes all day like this. There will be 10 more matches just like this one during the contest. So many people stuffing their arses off, keeping it within a few votes like this.

I refuse to believe TF2 is going to lose to an XBox exclusive RPG that was one of the most disappointing games on the system.

WHERE ARE ALL YOU TF2 FANS AND WHY AREN'T YOU OUT RALLYING?!

We will for sure see more. Crono/Missingno. had 91000. Now, I don't think any matches in this tournament will reach that level, but we'll get some over 80 probably. This one will barely break 60.
