Another match where the perfects do significantly better than the rest of the field. The -1s also do a fair bit better than the -2s. From there it's a fairly normal fade away.

2 people fell off the Top 50. Aussie2B and SP_Butters did not have Zidane vs. Kuja winning their match.

Ratchet would hold up well there, at least 40 a-gainst Grunty/bear.

Nuts and Bolts, was it that bad? I played the demo for a tad,
Nothing special, sure that's true, a little different from 1&2,
But not a bad game in my estimation, I'd say a a 7 was my suggestion.
Though of course I can't be sure, I didn't play it door-to-door.

Actually, Mega Man games have been released in the UK, but they are hard to find over there and never receive any promotion in the UK. At least that's what I've heard from another UK user a while back.

Fool, I'm going to make you regret ever making that sig bet

Cause anyone who took Phoenix has their bracket up on a crucifix

So don't cry boo-hoo, cause you're not the first nor the last to fall to the ultimate guru.

Phoenix V Gordon is tough, I must say.
It's why I've opted to bank that day.
Every match so far, I had picked right,
And the points are mine at this midnight!
I won't win the contest, not my talent,
But I can at least beat SBAllen.

(dangit, had to stretch on that last one)

If Freeman loses, there goes my bracket,
All thanks to Ezio, because he can't hack it.
Only recourse is when Phoenix bombs and goes back to the
bench, for he will surely be stomped by Alucard Dracula.

Who's responsible for the Ness-Gigyas pic? I'm not sure it will help them at all in the contest, but the person who made it did a great job of framing the picture to emphasize that it's a little kid versus an Eldritch Abomination.
#150 | Haste_2 | Posted 11/12/2011 3:15:40 PM | message detail | (edited)
Looks like not only is Robotnik a weak rival, but Wily is, as well. Looks to me like Sub/Scorp would likely beat both of those rivalries.

Also, I think the Ness/Giygas pic is awesome. Gigyas couldn't look more epic. Makes me want to see them win even more. Also, the x-stats predict....
Ness 61.63%
GlaDOS 38.37%

That result wouldn't be too far off in early 2010. Ignoring long extrapolated strings, Tifa woulda gotten about 64% on Ness and Kirby got 68% on GlaDOS (which also predicts Vivi getting 62% on GlaDOS).

Edit: wait, if Vivi gets 62% on GlaDOS, then Ness probably gets 55% at best. >_> Let's just go back to the x-stats.

Too bad they still won't win 'cause the now-wider playrate of Portal, the release of Portal 2, and team dynamics will change things drastically. :[
