Alucard 44.64%
Sora 55.36%

Another comfortable win for the bracket favorite - it looks like this gauntlet may be a disappointment for close matches, even it if is hard to predict. There were 55 Sora picks and 28 Alucard picks. The consensus was Sora with 51.54% and the average score was 40.98.

4) cyko - Sora 54.89% (+49.53)
5) Who Cares? - Sora 54.67% (+49.31)

Starion is today's best predictor. This is his fourth top 4 of the contest, and so far he's been in first, second, third, and fourth one time each. daniel2424 is 0.02 behind in second place, and he too has four different top 5s, but the one he's missing is first. BigtoeofJebus ALSO has four top 5s, as does cyko. Who Cares? is the odd man out today, as this is only his third top 5.
