1) Who takes second next round? Fox or Meta-Knight?

I've got the Princess, but out of those two I think I'd take Fox. Meta surprised me, but Fox put up a gangbusters performance.

2) "Do a Barrel Roll!" vs "You'll never defeat ANDROSS!" ?

Guh.

3) 4-way match of the day : Fox vs Ness vs DK vs Zelos. Who do you take for 1st and 2nd?

Not Zelos. I like Earthbound as much as the next guy, as long as the next guy isn't one of those people who hate it, but I don't think he could keep up with people he used to be even with any longer.

4) Oracle question: how tough is it to predict this contest, regardless of the scores.

It'll be the odd answer with this contest being the toughest to predict for, but it's the easiest for me when we don't take scores into account. I spend about ten seconds on my predictions at this point. I used to try and think them out, but I play games a lot less these days and have no clue what's going on with any of the current generation of games, so half the characters I don't even recognize and/or have no clue as to their popularity. So I pretty much fill in percentages for the characters I know and throw whatever else is left to the other characters.

5) lol Wario. Alright, that's not a question but I can't stand him =P

lol any Mario abortion that managed to live..
