I hope KotOR rises from here. It doesn't need to increase much to equal Oblivion's % on Soul Calibur II.

Fire Emblem vs. Soul Calibur II?

I might take KotOR to beat any Western name apart from Fallout 3, Half-Life 2, and Portal.

From: HaRRicH | #450
A guy insisted on fighting me on a night I just got no-showed on a date in another town, and he was drugged up bad while refusing to listen to me tell him no. He punched me in my temple, then grabbed my new car's open door and slammed it on me after still telling him I didn't want to fight. I had enough bad s**** that night and had to stop it, so I sized him up to settle this as quick as I could and slammed my knee between his legs. I also punched him once, which made his nose bleed so bad there was still a puddle on the pavement the next day.

Found out that next day he was in the hospital for a shattered testicle. He...wasn't happy about it, and eventually got arrested for trying to fight me in school about it again a few months later. It wasn't before I called him a one-balled freak in front of the school though, face-to-face.

He also didn't like that.


I want to call this a b**** move, but you only used it as a last resort so you did the right thing. That guy seemed like a jerkoff.

KOTOR over Oblivion seems like suicide. especially since it already lost to another western game, Halo.

Trust me, I heard that a lot from people who had never been in fights. As somebody who has grown up fighting off bullies and idiots, this was the only time I ever pulled the move. It was an ugly situation.


ANYWAY, if FE ends up outdoing DMC...haha.

Do you mean PS2 games or Western games that came out for any console during the PS2 era? HL2 and Diablo 2 would beat KotOR if it's the latter.

DMC probably does better, but only because it's a night match. DMC/FE probably goes down like Dante/Yoshi did in a 24 hour affair.

As expected pretty much everyone got killed on this one. Luster gets the match wrong so we lose all remaining -4 brackets. We nearly lose all of the -5 brackets as well. The -8s and -9s do slightly better than everyone else and nearly hit 30. The higher tiers manage to hang around 20 but by the time you reach the -25s, the prediction percentage is almost consistantly 15%. The Gurus had 29.80% support for Golden Sun which is fantastic compared to how everyone else did.

Golden Sun used Luster Purge! It's Super Effective! 16 accounts fell off the Top 50 and all of them are Luster accounts (disclaimer: I have not checked his usermap) which is a serious blow to the Lusterboard. Black_Tuesday, User_ID_Hunter, Karma_Devil, Anti_Purge, Fear-the-alts, Alt_Invaders, Summer-Solstice, Luster_is_War, For-The-Horde, The-missing-alt, -RevoLUEtion-, LUEmit-Break, LUE-is-private, -ExcLUEsion-, Me-smash-you and User-Level did not have Golden Sun winning.

30 users got the match wrong but survived. Many of them are also Luster accounts. Former first place Air_Pollution, former second place CaptainLeapYear, former third place Land_Pollution, 6-Hour_Power, Anti_LUEshi, Zero_Bracket, Mouth-Wash, Lame-Username, Black-LUEsday, TurkeyDayFeast, Captain-Bumper, Negative-Slope, RIP_Computer, Heart-Luster, ROFLatl33t5p34k, Emoticon-Gun, -LUEFO-, Wishing-Star, PSU_Jer, HeroicLuca, Ludwig_Von_2, Eternal_Debate, Shinigami_Duo, zidaneman, IloveYoda, Demon_HunterX, Xeybozn, TheArkOfTurus, SomeGamerDude and _HyperSpace_ also did not have Golden Sun winning.

Congrats to the 4 users on the Top 50 who got it right. gitanil, maisface86, MerchantTorneko and transience_002 all knew Golden Sun was going to win the match and rise to the top four positions.

Wait, Luster banked? I thought he had GTA: SA, or was that just his bracket?

That was just my bracket. I banked on the last match for all of my accounts except for 7 of them. I originally intended on banking on all of my accounts except for 5 of them. But based on the leaderboard, it looks forgot to bank yesterday's match on my Message-Marker and Undercover_Spy accounts. So I changed those 2 accounts to bank on the next match (even though it's a no-brainer match).

It will take a while for most of my accounts to drop off the battle leaderboard. I'll probably still end up having a couple of accounts on the final leaderboard at the end of the contest.

I won't list all of the usernames that were mine on those 2 leaderboards, but I can provide you a list of all the accounts that were mine without resorting to listing the usernames.

Bracket Leaderboard: All accounts ranked #1 through #18 are mine, along with all of the accounts ranked #34 through #50.

Battle Leaderboard: The #14 and #15 accounts are both mine, but Silverwarp (ranked #16) is not my account. Besides that, all of the accounts ranked #17 through #50 are also mine.

Thought I might be on the leaderboard today, but found out I'm one of the 37 brackets on 92 not to appear on the leaderboard. Then, I thought "oh well, at least I'll surely be on the battle leaderboard now, right?", only to find out that Luster banked so I'm still 3,900 short >_<.

Oh well, hopefully in a couple of days for the battle... Whether I ever make the bracket leaderboard is almost definitely going to come down to Dead Rising Vs Persona 4. Luster, you've got Persona 4 there, right? So should Dead Rising win I'd overtake you, I think.

11/17 right, 6 dropped. The other two I dropped were pretty embarrassing ****-ups, really <_<. Well, I stand by No Mercy! Not sure what I was thinking with DQ8 though.

8's not that bad really. if you got more than 10 you'd probably be on the leaderboard.

Mocking my lack of leaderboardship ;_;.

Feel my truth.


Same here. Apparently the site decided to use my gamespot account name from the merge though. I'm #39, Xetherion.

I had to bank in order to lock up the bonus Karma for all of my accounts, since Bacon isn't catching up to me with the amount of banked points I have. By locking up the bonus Karma, I can also stop making battle picks on all of my accounts since I know they will finish with a higher score than Bacon.

Yes, I have Persona 4 on that match.

Real men take No Mercy. If I had to choose between being on the leaderboard and taking the man's game over the sissy's game, I stand by my choice!

Ignoring all the other points in my bracket I averted that. But even something like San Andreas isn't as MANLY as No Mercy.

12/17 right. The other 3 i missed were No Mercy (damn wrestling fans made me give in to fear), DQ8 (i hate Chrono Cross and will never support it in any debatable match), and Crisis Core (combination of fanboyism and thinking rSFF might occur).

Deus Ex was a coinflip, just happened to pick the wrong side of the coin. I would have gotten SFIV>Sonic right were it not for people on b8 convincing me Sonic Adventure 2 would be decent. Match was pretty close anyway. Also would have got MM9 right were it not for listening to KP (but he got me to pick Golden Sun>GTA so it's alright). Disgaea was just a case of betting on the more well-known fodder and losing. MvC2... i went back and forth on that match for days. I knew MvC2 was huge and had the potential to take out a Mario game, but fighting games poor past performances finally made me pick Mario.

Out of interest, am I crazy for thinking that Final Fantasy X > Brawl > Melee > Final Fantasy X? It's essentially my justification for how my bracket works, and I'm starting to wonder...
