Ugh, I thought this result might happen, but I didn't want to go with high 60s in my Oracle. Remember that Braid actually lost to Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix in this poll:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3357

Before this match started, I thought high 60s or low 70s would be a good enough performance to convince me that P4 > DR is possible next round.

This is around normal. Freeze votals in day matches are lower than freeze votals in night matches. There are only 3830 users online right now, where as that number would be around 5500 to 6000 online users at the start of a night match.

Wow, what a board vote for Persona 4. Hmm, if it finishes at mid 60s, then Persona 4/Dead Rising sounds more of a toss-up now.

Persona's worse off during the day, but then again so will Braid. Still, Persona's gotta show us what it's got, because DR's gonna have the daylight advantage.

Braid now avoiding the doubling, wonder if it'll stay like that.

I use bear arms in ALL of my decorating.

I have 15300 points at risk after DR's win, and I have nothing banked currently. X_X

I can't afford to bank, as much as I'd like to for a few of the matches still to come......

A quote from Dead Rising 2 sums up my situation and state of mind right now......

"Sometimes you have to risk it all.........TO WIN BIG!"

Tough match this time. Interestingly TWEWY was the one favored by the higher scoring brackets. The top tiers didn't even break 50 and it slowly rises into the 70s as you go downward before fading away near the bottom. Although a lot of Gurus were trying to jump ship before the match, 69.41% had Dead Rising locked into our brackets and got the match right.

22 people fell off the Top 50 this time. Dr_Naysay, jwhbp2, 7point9, Saotome924, chris60050, atackoboy, ZenzokukenX, crono1009, kita_densetsu, darkturkish5, zidaneman, mantisespwn, jonas66, Xade76, theryanexpress, Broken91, Ace_0f_Spades, somberfox, thedarkpp, TBSMookfisher, sephiroth136 and AlannaWebb did not have Dead Rising beating The World Ends with You.

12 people got it wrong and survived. Former first place Junkcar02, Reaper_Minion, Durandi, chriscam23, ZevGun, clayallen17, Vlodd, MayorQuimby2121, AshenSky, ChainsawLU, Snuffy_Mccrack and darclogan also did not have Dead Rising beating The World Ends with You.

Dr_Football punted my bracket across the field.
Congrats to Dr_Football for winning the Character Battle 8 Guru Contest!

I noticed HM was at top of the Battle Picks during the last match with over 70k points, but not anymore now.

That must suck.

RustyMrSaturn is a horrible user.

Yeah, I'm surprised he didn't bank that match. It was a total toss up, and 70k is enough to feel safe at banking at and still have a chance of winning the contest

HM didn't bank? Can't say I feel bad, cause now I have a chance.

---

We should've had some enterprising soul keep track of the Battle Stats each match just like how TRE does for the brackets.

Though it'd probably take a lot more work, which is why I can see people not wanting to do it.

gaining 1 point for my contest bracket is little consolation after I just lost 21k battle points. Especially considering I have DR to win in round 2 -.-

HM didn't bank?

OOOOOUUUUUCCHHHHHH!!!!!

That's like jumping off a plane and realizing your parachute didn't open. I wonder if he will have a chance survive...

By the way, 64.42% for Dead Rising in the bracket stats. Board 8 gets owned again by the casuals.

Wait how does B8 having a higher % taking Dead Rising than the overall mean we got owned by the casuals?

I will have 32500 at risk points after this match in the battle contest. I'm seriously thinking about banking for WoW vs Animal Crossing, though.

---
"I remember a time when someone called World of Warcraft 'World of WoW'"

Yeah, gurus had a big advantage to DR. There were just more vocal TWEWY supporters

So based on how Persona 4 is looking a half an hour in... whos the favorite next round? Dead Rising or Persona 4?
---
http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/11/500x_vegasdude.jpg

The machine clearly needs his oil changed.
---
:>

Also, this match tells us nothing about DR/P4. Braid is just so, so bad. Probably Adventure levels bad to let Persona 4 win by this margin.
---
:>

If dead rising wins next match i'm done with this contest.Beating TWEWY is one thing but beating P4 is out of the question.

This is cruel. I thought Demon's Souls would crush Mega Man 9, but it didn't, so I changed my pick from Dead Rising to TWEWY and it betrayed me. This doesn't make a least of sense.

---
"I remember a time when someone called World of Warcraft 'World of WoW'"

I don't think it was necessarily TWEWY fans being vocal. I think people were legitimately losing faith in Dead Rising. You can't change your bracket so they ended up getting the match right even though they no longer thought Dead Rising would win going into the match.

Overall, it seems like Board 8 in general slightly preferred TWEWY over Dead Rising.

How would that influence your pick? If anything, it'd make you want to pick Dead Rising since the former match involved an obscure Capcom game beating a cult RPG.
