The weird thing about that is even if this is just the break never being moved with the contest delay... presumably the results for the last match before it would have been set to update even under the original timetable so it's strange they haven't here if that's the issue.

hey I'm impressed Edith Finch made it above 10%!

that should at least save it from dead last in the X-Stats and maybe even bottom 5!

Nomura rewriting the game to have the contest dying instead of Aerith would be on brand.

Without even looking at the rest of the X-Stats, I'm really hoping Hearthstone is in the bottom 5.

I'm thinking it's pretty unlikely at this point.

If I had to guess, the bottom 5 will be some combination of Return of the Obra Dinn, INSIDE, Slay the Spire, Crusader Kings II, Talos Principle, Baba Is You, Dota 2, and maybe Dying Light.

Yakuza 0's strong showing should prevent that, at least.

Unless Dark Souls absolutely fodderizes MGSV, which I guess we can't totally rule out!

@SBAllen The corresponding matches for today – Mass Effect 2 vs. Horizon Zero Dawn, and Resident Evil 2 vs. Bloodborne – are currently missing, as well as the Contest Hub, brackets, standings, and everything contest-related.

We need a fix for this problem as soon as possible.

Thank you for hosting this contest.

With 188 durability, BotW could skewer the entire bracket, including itself, and skewer more games from other contests before finally having to switch weapons

Of those I've only played Baba Is You and it certainly doesn't deserve that. =(

Haven't heard of 'em.

the fact that there's been an issue for over an hour and he still hasn't even said anything about it is pretty dumb. i don't care whether or not it's his work day right now.
