I don't like it either, but it's something that doesn't seem to be going away!

It'll go away if we all just pretend it doesn't exist.

That always works.

It happened on that Simpsons episode.

Rallying discussion is lame because rallying is lame.

But I've got P4, so knock yourselves out if you want to talk about it!


Rallying is awesome! It's the one thing that keeps the contest interesting. Without it, it's the same exact contest year after year; it's not like the users care about recent gaming events.

I thought at first that Crono wasn't going to do 63% here since his percentage had stalled out after 11:25 PM before making some good gains after 11:40 PM.

And now Crono has one more update left to gain 0.02%.

LoL rally discussion is lame because everyone is grossly exaggerating its strength to the point where they may as well be talking about an alternate universe.

It's like me talking about how Gilgamesh is gonna sweep through the contest since he's been in so many Final Fantasies that he'll stand as a proxy of the series. Anyone want to have that discussion?

Gross, no.

I mean, I guess if all you care about is the end result

But I can't imagine we care so much about the end result that we're getting invested in some random dude most of us don't even know

I'd rather Link win than some jobber

rallying is cool when everyone gets behind it, like 2007 L-Block (let's be real here, it didn't make a difference if you were a Link/Cloud/Snake fan, it was a f***ing Tetris block)
LoL-only rally would feel lame though

When Pokemon got a great board vote.

Pikachu was literally beating Snake at the freeze in 2010.

I still feel like Big Daddy can win this. Pikachu and Lloyd both almost certainly go down here, and Big Daddy almost certainly wins the night vote.

Well, "win" over Lloyd, at least.

One of the brackets in the top 333 got the match wrong. So while the -1s (44 points), -3s (42 points) and -4s (41 points) go perfect,the -2s (43 points) do not. As expected of this match it's really easy for everyone and even the middle tiers have a prediction percentage that borders on 90.

1 person fell off the Top 49. Hump_A_Bird did not have Crono winning the match.

Here's some bonus info. Not a single person on the Expert Challenge Top 49 gained or lost a single point. Not a single person on the Expert Challenge Top 49 fell off. Devin Morgan got 6 points on the match, though.
