Thanks for the mail KM! However... I still need the numbers from the Squall, Sora, and Duke matches! As you'll recall we only went through Ryu's win last night.

Sorry about that, for some reason I was sure you had Squall, Sora and Duke. Oh well, sent now....
Can't wait to see how you adjusted those...

And now...the questions....
1) Most shocking result so far?
There are so many to choose from....
Ada winning her 4-pack without sweating was kinda shocking but it's something that could happen. I'll have to make this a 3-way tie between results that have left me outright speechless...:
L-Block looking like a solid midcarder was something even my bracket didn't expect. Is L-Block's face shot his topmost square or something?
Ryu H > Riku + Roxas. Give me all the SFF and LFF you want, I'm not trying to explain that one...
Duke Nukem winning a match. Alright, his 4-pack was weak as all. And alright GFNW. But how could he ever win a match?

2) Most impressive character so far?
Master Chief looked like he could use Halo 3 to make it even farther than people thought. L-Block and those two poke friends made the other joke characters look outright silly. Ryu H has shown the potential to slide by a few more matches. But personally I'll have to hand it to our favorite yellow rat... Pika is the one I never saw coming out of them all...

3) Biggest disappointment?
I never rode on Midna's bandwagon and Sub-Zero's performance doesn,t make her look so bad. On the other hand, getting humiliated by Ada Wong is not something to be proud of. Here Balthier, take your shamestick!

4) Weakest character to advance?
Balthier probably...but frankly, Gordon, Duke and Vergil could all be contenders...

5) Strongest character to lose in Round 1?
I'd take Mewtwo over Rikku and they're the only two even in contention...

6) Who's the contest dark horse at this point?
This is where bracket positioning comes into play. Sub-Zero and Ryu H could find a way to go farther than expected but it'd be tough for them to really do some damage. Ryu could see SFF opening him a path but it's a longshot. The one real dark horse here is Pikachu. Thanks to probably the weakest division out there he could very well dodge SFF on his way to Round 4...
