From: Greyfeld | #224 Nah, don't worry about it. You lost a total of 10 points on the SA2 and SMS picks. Considering this bracket can reward up to 448 points, you're still in a decent position to get on the leaderboard. Within the guru, both Melee and MGS4 are upset picks, so if those pan out for you and the rest of the bracket goes your way, you might be fine. --- It takes a genius to make something simple truly great.

Everyone across the board got killed on this one. The perfects and -1s actually managed to do slightly better than the tiers just below them. It's been probable for a while now but I think this defintely means most if not all of those 0 brackets aren't real ones.

Nah,
don't worry about it. You lost a total of 10 points on the SA2 and SMS
picks. Considering this bracket can reward up to 448 points, you're
still in a decent position to get on the leaderboard. Within the guru,
both Melee and MGS4 are upset picks, so if those pan out for you and
the rest of the bracket goes your way, you might be fine. You're right, that is 10 points isn't it? I didn't know how many points there were total though. How much are the later rounds worth? Currently I've only got about half the round 1 picks right, but aside from SA2/SMS, every other pick has only been a 1-pointer. |

Also
keep in mind that Round 1 gets easier (I think) as we progress. The
toughest Round 1 matches were bunched up near the beginning. Yeah, but that does jack squat for my battle picks :P that means that I gain no ground, especially since I just lost a 6-game streak on that last match. Speaking of toss-up matches though, does anybody have any information about No Mercy? There are a few polls for FE, but I can't find anything about the wrestling game. |

Welp, back to zero points. Stupid as hell, but I currently don't have a single match banked up to and including SSBM/Morrowind. But hey, if it works out, I'll have 150k+ points! --- Wylvane Grand Kirby is a horrible user. |
TheCodeisBosco | Posted 10/28/2010 10:44:35 PM | message detail |
Whew!
Morrowind really helped my bracket there - I'm starting to have much
better luck with debatable matches. Hopefully Pokemon Emerald pulls
through for me as well! (FE/WWF is a win-win, though; if FE wins, I get
another point. If WWF wins, that's a victory for B8!) Sadly though, Conker is doing way worse than I expected here. It's too bad - I've never played it, but it looks like a blast. --- CURRENT GOTY SCORE: 14 That does it. I'm buying Morrowind sometime! |

I'm gonna hate next round is how bad CoD4 crushes PD. Here's to hoping

ugly. --- Nominate Epona...or else. http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg |
Greyfeld | Posted 10/28/2010 11:07:17 PM | message detail |
This is old but why do guys think M3/DMC3 is the second highest banked match so far? My guess is people were afraid of the power of cult JRPGs. I thought it was a pretty easy win, but it seemed a lot of people were uncomfortable with the matchup, since action games aren't very strong, by and large. |

uh... Perfect Dark has gone down in % every single update so far. I
