Ulti
forgot to apply the "Contest Discussion" topic flair to this topic and
it's now too late for him to add it himself. Well, I guess TRE can
apply that topic flair to this topic. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BK_Sheikah00, Guru Champ! |

Well, I guess TRE can apply that topic flair to this topic. Done. This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |

Who’s ready for Crono x Mario IV? |
Moonroof posted... Who’s ready for Crono x Mario IV? This would be Mario/Crono V, actually. |
Oops. Nonetheless! I have them going up in the finals of the second chance. |
We
saw CT take a massive boost last contest. It would have beaten FFVII.
The question is, will it translate to Crono and/or cast, all this time
later? |
So, who is going to do their due diligence and let the world know to register before October 19? Rally before the rallies. Dilated Chemist |
It's cool that Quiet made it in. Meryl deserves a run too I think, also Otacon. I like a high MGS ratio in my brackets. Otacon got crushed by Magus last time. I think we're good not seeing him anymore. |
Oracle? =( Dilated Chemist |
Bowser rides Bowsette strangely deep, calling it now Viviff on the go! (or from the toilet) http://i.minus.com/iUSn0BlyRplGN.gif |
I
kinda hate that Zelda vs. Squall match. I feel like Zelda should be
stronger now and Squall will be equal or weaker, and whoever wins could
win a few matches after that too. How much stronger than Zelda was
Squall back in 2013? All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. |
Mac Arrowny posted... How much stronger than Zelda was Squall back in 2013? Thanks to Zelda/DK/Charizard, it's impossible to tell. That being said, Squall's been decently ahead of her in the X-Stats in most years (2006 being the exception, but the last few rounds of the Female Bracket were wonky). |
The first thing I noticed about the bracket was how messed up the seeding is Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to BKSheikah, the winner of the Best Year in Gaming contest. |
does James Sunderland beat whoever he's up against I already forgot who that is For your BK_Sheikah00. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza |
tag Kefka vs L-Block, the two biggest trolls of all time, seriously have no idea what do for this match I say appreciate the life you have, because it can always be worse |
My
bracket is completely screwed. I have no idea who will win so many
matches. A lot of them look like they're worth more than 1 point as
well. |
DK > Tidus Communists |
Division 3 is hell. |
If you got L block or Kefka going out of Division 3, you might as well go all the way with it. Communists |
TheKoolAidShoto posted... If you got L block or Kefka going out of Division 3, you might as well go all the way with it. Yeah but... KH3 Hype. But other than that, I don't trust anything in that division to beat Kefka or L-Block. Nor I trust them to lose to Kefka or L-Block. |
This
is definitely some odd seeding. D.Va as a 14 seed? I think she’s gonna
go really far, and I’m not committed to having Zelda over her in my
bracket at the moment. |
Oh, will you look at that. Sora gets fed to... Cloud. |

I just realized I picked Mewtwo to beat Mario then lose to Mario. Send help. |

I'm
quite surprised that Samus had the second most nominations of the Noble
Nine and Mario is the 7 seed. If I was told they were 2 and 7 I
would've guessed the other way around. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to BKSheikah, the winner of the Best Year in Gaming contest. |

Contest-time, aw yeah. Really like the set-up and a bunch of the matches! Somebody last topic was asking who got in without the autofill in nominations. Add Metal Man to your list! Nominate METAL MAN for 20XX! https://imgur.com/Dr4NAeq |
I'm
not sure what to think of the Noble Nine except Seph getting only to
face division winners. I generally don't like this thing too much,
except for perhaps removing Link. I don't expect any matches to be
different the second time we have them. On the other hand, it's set up
so we can almost certainly get the hierarchy we wanted set in place for
them, so that's something. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to BKSheikah, the winner of the Best Year in Gaming contest. |

I'm
really happy this contest is out because I was looking for an excuse to
stop thinking about the elections in my country (which are a load of
BS). |

Everything
is locked in, with the assumption of no rallying. Probably not likely,
but I don't want to spend days debating which one or two characters will
make a deep run. Congratulations to BKSheikah for winning the guru |

The worst thing about these contests is when you have your first 'one less bracket' moment. |

We've
already gotten a site alert promoting the contest, but the site alert
is currently limited to just registered users. As we get closer to the
end of the bracket entry period, I assume the site alert will be made
visible to unregistered users as well. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BK_Sheikah00, Guru Champ! |

So...at a glance, some quick thoughts on the first round: Kefka/L-Block has been appropriately called a trap match. L's more consistent (?!), but I'm going in with Kefka. Sans/Pac-Man is probably a trap too -- going with Sans. Fun to think we may see two former contest champions eliminated in the first round. What a contest. If people are looking at Mewtwo over GLaDOS as the favorite, be my guest. GLaDOS has established herself well enough that I don't care much that Portal 1 dropped -- she looked great last contest and looked more legitimate despite Mewtwo's run to the championship round. Mewtwo has a chance, sure, but this is her match to lose. This is more of an upset, but I don't respect Lightning at all and think Chloe's taking it home. Waluigi's the all-or-nothing character this contest. I'm betting and praying for nothing. Magus/Vincent is funny, I just wish the winner (Vincent) got to face Phoenix. I'll be pleased to see Master Chief lose, I'm just not predicting it. Vote for Metal Man. Nominate METAL MAN for 20XX! https://imgur.com/Dr4NAeq |

This is the kind of thing I'm gonna wait to see the Guru to decide on. If I'm the only one banking on Mewtwo I might drop it. |
