I literally rallied one vote for Boko about six minutes ago...

The best I could do (which is sad), but it could make a difference!

Bold prediction: Boko by 2

new closest match

a bolder prediction would be a tie, but I'm not that bold.


Wouldn't count; only those where the winner advances count. Otherwise Street Fighter IV vs. Persona 4 2009 would be tied for second.

Ah, wonderful. We've now entered the phase of the contest where I learn from my Expert Bracket that gambling is bad and that I shouldn't do it. I love how SBAllen's advent of the Expert Bracket coincides almost perfectly with my move to Las Vegas. It's like he was watching out for me!

By which I obviously meant that Master Chief-Frog 2004, Street Fighter IV-Persona 4 2009, and Kratos Aurion-Boko 2013 would constitute a three-way tie for second-closest match ever.

An easy match... for first at least. Top 139 gets it right and only one person in the top 356 gets it wrong. The middle tiers are in the 80s and 90s so it was an easy match for everyone.

No one fell off the top 49.

The same reason characters like Vyse, Laharl, Guybrush, & Edgeworth keep getting in, fans don't care about the results so much as just seeing their favorites in the poll. I wish there were more Morrigan fans here, then I wouldn't have had to wait 11 years to see her again.
