1) What are the chances of someone overtaking The n00b Avenger by the end of the contest?
2) What are the chances of someone passing team Predestined Divination by the end of the contest?

Slim Jim to none. The high scores associated with this format would require that they either start doing incredibly bad, which seems unlikely as even on bad days they seem to have above average picks, or for someone else to win a few games from you guys.

3) How do you rank the round 2 performances of the four noble niners we've seen so far?

Cloud > Samus > Mega Man > Fourth Guy

4) Do you think Mega Man has a chance of beating Samus next round?

No. Mega Man seems like he blends in with the Nintendo vote, so I don't think Yoshi is going to syphon away an incredible amount from Samus yet nothing from Mega Man.
