The board/stats topic rallying MM just to stop BT winning the guru would be one of the cruellest things to do, and it's hilarious.


Actually, Kettch re-ran the numbers, and I'm 111 points up on fett, who only gets 96 points if Majora wins today and tomorrow. If Majora wins this, I win the Guru no matter what happens tomorrow. Don Machiaveli wins if FFX beats Brawl, but I win the other 2 possibilities.

Sorry guys, found out that BT wins the Guru even if MM beats Brawl. Apparently the closest MM bracket would still not make up enough points.....


Fett has Majora winning, right?


60% UPDATE!

Then I looked again and saw that it didn't stall.

This isn't 4can. I've been refreshing for a while now, and I've yet to see the rally topic again. As long as Majora wins by a couple hundred its GameFAQS's doing.

Man, contest prizes aside, I hope Majora pulls this off and beats Brawl tomorrow. I like Brawl, but Majora is a timeless game, and probably my third favourite game in this bracket (behind Mass Effect and GH2). Majora killing some of my least-liked games in the bracket, then clinching the Guru victory for me by killing the sucktastic FFX is an excellent outcome.
