BTW Kax, can I still hold you to this?

Yeah, I said I'd do it and I'm a man of my word. I still don't think Ganon is getting past Sonic, but if he does then I'll start to worry a little. Of course, it would be nice if you had something on the line as well... =)

I am not changing this sig until the Devil Rays get into 3rd place in the division with at least 20 games played. (Started 9/16/04)

Damn, I'm probably gonna be in the bottom ten for this match. =(

I was wrong. I was only number 11 from the bottom. =D

CBV: 2/2
Next: Rikku vs. Lenneth

Hm...should I root for Rikku to push toward the 75% (approx. my oracle pred), or should I root for Lenneth to push toward 26% for my spread bet? Yeah, ironic that two predictions disagree, but I was too afraid to lower my oracle pick. But, I gotta root for Lenneth since if she manages it will screw over loads of people in that contest. Destruction, baby!

---
"Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?"
"Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think."

Doesn't matter what you root for, Rikku's staying above 74! Also...

Claire with 52%

Take off every sig.

Right. Other topic for that.

Take off every sig.

Ahh...my prediction at 76% won't be too bad this round. Finally a decent personal showing...

Round 1: Sonic

My pick Ganondorf > Sonic....hmmm...well I still have faith!

Also, although I'm not sure if the list HM posted for games before March 2007 is correct, but no SSBB is sad.

The first contested match is finally here. And the pic is already up! Rooting for Claire here. I did pretty bad on the contested matches of the first round last contest, hope I do way better now. First upset, here I go!

Happy Happyists 4th on the Oracle Team Challenge. 3rd on Spread Betting!

Remember, remember. The 7th of October - the day Ganondorf was beat.
By the Valentine, who N fans despise - another win, another great feat.

Looks like I should make up some of the points I blew yesterday. Is there anywhere on your site that shows what everyone picked on today's battle on one page?

If you think the fastest way to a man's heart is through his stomach, you're aiming about 8 inches too high.

Kinda. You can change the number in the overall results URL to see people's picks:

I don't know why Rikku's taking off so much now... my pick was looking great two hours ago, but not so much if this keeps up.
---
CATS's Road to the Character Battle V Championship
Round 1: Sonic

Well I hope it keeps up. To be honest, I actually thought about lowering my percent by exactly 2 for some reason. I would've been at like 75. whatever I have which is looking really good now. If she can keep going up though that'll be sweet. Either way, it'll be much better for me this time.
---
Let's welcome Chaos.
2/2 Next picks- Rikku > Lenneth and Claire > Kairi

Well, that feature is really cool Kaxon. I can see how many people I'm going to jump over when Claire wins ;D

That and Rikku is steadying upwards slightly...the closer to 76 she gets, the better =)

Nice list, I counted twenty that would be in my top ten - BlondeAfroHero7

The match results for the polls in the character contests are radically different than the series contest. In the series contest, there were tons of 80%+ blowouts. Even the first match barely got above 81%. Then again, Civilization wasn't a joke nomination that lucked out and ended up in the last contest. Nidoran F was a clear joke nomination so it would have been easier for Nidoran F to receive more support than Civilization.

I think the main difference was that the top series in the series contest were just incredibly strong.

I'm definitely worried about this match... it kind of reminds me of Ness/CJ.

This match is scary right now. My prediction was Rikku with 74.99% and Rikku currently has 75.04%. I hope it manages to drop slightly to give me a chance at a perfect prediction.

Actual Top 5's / Expected Top 5's
If there were 100 predictions in a match, you're expected to get 5/100 = .05 Top 5's, sum for all matches you've predicted and it's all magic!

That's a great feature, Morgoth (I assume it was you who did that one). It seems I'm a fairly risky one...

I predicted Rikku with 75.28%...I wonder if I'll even make the Top 10 here with all these predictors?

Anyway, I still have incorrect predictions on the site as a result of the crash earlier. Six of them were my initial predictions, and every one of them was changed, but initial predictions are there rather than the changes.

I imagine this will be the same for other people, as well.

"Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?"

I was in 13th, now I'm in 35th. I'm getting about 48 points this round, though. I predict I'll be at 24th.

Nah, you just screwed up again, this is the last part of the post you're talking about:

KOS-MOS vs Amy Rose - 65.54%
Aeris Gainsborough - 77.77%

Aeon Division
Yuna vs Roll - 74.88%
Joanna Dark vs Cortana - 59.20%
Chun Li vs Kasumi - 58.90%
Lara Croft vs Alyx Vance - 60.77%

You still need to post those numbers with, like, you know, winners in the other topic ;)
