Rooting for Lu Bu > Yoshimitsu > Groose at this point.

-2 is better than -6!

So am I. But not even for Expert Challenge. I just can't imagine a better outcome for this match. The only competition would be Groose coming back with the night vote.

-2 is better than -6!

indeed. also, my expert sucks anyway and i'm sure Yoshi has more bracket support, so fewer people gain ground on me there.

Lu Bu placing second will probably be better so as to minimize how far some people get ahead of me.

I'll lose 1 more point so that many more lose 3

Twilight Princess was a good Zelda game. And believe it or not, Four Swords Adventures was a ton of fun..


TP is average at best, and only gets good once you hit the Arbiter Grounds. Until then, it's all gimmickry.

Four Swords and Minish Cap are the only two Zelda games I haven't played.

If Lu Bu gets first place, I will be able to get -2 instead.


Also, I suppose Dynasty Warriors is stronger than I expected. This is a very interesting poll:

Dynasty Warriors finished in second place, losing to the Ninja Gaiden series.

Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures are two different games so you should probably make that three.

Yeah, unless Gilgamesh is unexpectedly strong then Sora might have the biggest jumps in absolute %age from 1st round to 2nd round.

What are characters should jump in %age from 1st to 2nd round anyway? Can't be that many.

Sephiroth will probably have as big of a jump as Sora depending on your respect for Morrigan and Spyro.
