why does every match have to have stupid cheating accusations instead of just SOTC fans doing what MGS2 fans had been doing for the last hour


157 132
148 136
136 146
133 188

A sudden 40 vote leap on the second to last update looks extremely suspicious to me.

We're seeing huge votals here which implied rallying. Oh, and apparently i have awesome friends. They called everyone they knew in the last ten minutes and got like 50 of their friends to vote. I think this was legit.

...Man. I love Chrono Cross, and this result is STILL making me happy as can be. MM was and is my favorite Zelda game, and had all but given up on it beating GSC before the contest. But now...now...now there's hope, at least until the next 12 hours. Go MM GO!

Because no matter how you look at it, that update was extremely suspicious. There's rallying then there's 'rallying'.

Was I actually the only one? It's mine to lose now, I think. I just have to choose which way to go on TTYD and Halo/UC2. (And I'm assuming TP beats SMG, which apparently some people think is crazy also.)

Honestly if I were you, I'd go Oblivion and Halo.

Good luck. My contest is over, except for First Votes <_<

I'm not giving any advice on TTYD/Oblivion.

But Halo should be considered the favorite taking into account the round 1 and round 2 results, and Twilight Princess is a lock.

Max Score: 118
Omitted scores all got the match wrong.

The causals won this round. The top tiers of the bracket got hammered. We lose the last -7 bracket and he becomes the last remaining -9 bracket since all of the old -9s got the match wrong. Only one of the last eight -8 brackets and only two out of thirty-four -10 bracket manage to get the match right. As you go down, prediction percentage actually started increasing. At -17, prediction percentage break 50 and at -19 nearly hits 70. Prediction percentage sticks around the mid 50s for a while before fading away.

14 people fell off the Top 50. Mouth-Wash, Lame-Username, Black-LUEsday, TurkeyDayFeast, Captain-Bumper, Negative-Slope, RIP_Computer, Heart-Luster, ROFLatl33t5p34k, Emoticon-Gun, -LUEFO-, Wishing-Star, IloveYoda and YoboD did not have SotC winning the match.

33 people got the match wrong and lived. Former first place gitanil, current third place transience_002, Xetherion, zidaneman, TheArkOfTurus, transience, SubDeity, darkfir, PSU_Jer, bgbball31, Greenmonkey034, bospsychopaat, kneazlegirl, IngmarBirdman, AgainAgainFFA, EnochCamas, notConcerned, Ludwig_Von_2, hylianknight3, TheGreenThunder, Blairville, InsaneSage12654, VDontheLadyYo, MerchantTorneko, Randomcrazydude, Eternal_Debate, Air_Pollution, CaptainLeapYear, Land_Pollution, 6-Hour_Power, Anti_LUEshi, Shinigami_Duo and Zero_Bracket also did not have SotC winning the match.

Congrats to the 3 people on the Top 50 who got it right. maisface86, PKProStudio and SomeGamerDude knew the winner was going to be SotC.
xp1337 | Posted 12/4/2010 9:15:01 PM | message detail
Yeah, what I currently have in my now shattered ruins of a Battle Challenge are Oblivion and Halo.

However, I'm likely to just start taking ridiculous upsets out of frustration and go back to TTYD. And then KH2. And who knows what other absurd picks!

I'm leaning TTYD and Halo right now. And I think the TTYD match has the potential to be like this one also. This contests will give one of us a heart attack. And I don't think any of us are over 30 yet.
