Match #31 Results
The Legend of Zelda 50.99%
Final Fantasy 49.01%

And another one is in the books! The Series Contest brings us our closest final ever, and arguably the most exciting, but Final Fantasy was never able to put together the momentum it needed during its good hours to take the lead. Final predictions were more split than any match this contest, with 66 picks for Zelda and 49 for Final Fantasy. The consensus was an extremely accurate Zelda with 51.04% and the average score was 45.51 points.

Best Five Picks:
1) Big Bob - The Legend of Zelda 51.00% (+49.99)
2) TheKnightOfNee - The Legend of Zelda 50.97% (+49.98)
3) FastFalcon05 - The Legend of Zelda 50.89% (+49.90)
4) Rodri316 - The Legend of Zelda 51.11% (+49.88)
5) phlyerphan1 - The Legend of Zelda 51.12% (+49.87)

Today's best prediction goes to Big Bob! He finishes the contest in style with a near perfect prediction today after making the fifth-best prediction yesterday. TheKnightOfNee does well for himself, scoring 49.98 on the final match to wrap up a very successful first contest. We have some Oracle veterans on the leaderboard today - FastFalcon05 takes third, marking his 24th lifetime top 5, and Rodri316 takes fourth, for his 28th lifetime top 5, which ties him for most all-time with cyko and Ringworm. Phlyerphan1 takes fifth, his fourth top 5 of the contest.

4) lol_internet - 1391.11
5) GoldSlime35 - 1389.75

Congratulations to Xuxon, winner of the SpC2k6 Oracle Challenge and our first ever two time champion! That truly ranks as one of the most impressive achievements we've seen in Oracle history. GoldSlime's bid for the title fell short as Final Fantasy couldn't put together the rally it needed - he drops to fifth. All I can say is I know how you feel, buddy. Ness26 kept it close to Xuxon all the way down the stretch and finished in second, an impressive achievement, especially for a first-timer. TheKnightOfNee, also a first-timer, finished in third. Soup Blazer, aka lol_internet, moved up one spot on the last day to finish fourth.
