After a lot of hard work, Kaxon and I managed to pull off the complete Oracle Archives. Relive Haste2's runaway victory in SC2k3, BQ's Dynasty of Oracle Order in SpC2k4 or Dilated Chemist's recent victory in SpC2k5 all over again (now with even more position markers!)

Congrats to yoblazer, the Guru contest winner!

In the All-time User World Rankings, can you just put add SSJVegeta69's points to mine? It was my former account.

There's a letter here. Shall we burn it?

In the All-time User World Rankings, can you just put add SSJVegeta69's points to mine? It was my former account.

The system has been updated with the information (i.e. SC2k3 data will now display The n00b Avenger instead of SSJVegeta69) but the All-Time User Rankings are static as of now and in the process of being automated, at which time both accounts will be counted as The n00b Avenger. It should be done sometime during the weekend. Also it's nice to know you are SSJVegeta69 as I clearly remember someone telling solar he was SSJVegeta69 back in SpC2k4 when he was looking for SC2k3 vets but I couldn't remember who it was...

Coming, shortly. I still need to find out which characters are in the contest. ;)

I like the script idea. Man, that'll be so nice for recording picks. Is Kaxon running the whole thing this contest? If so, he's got a tough act to follow.

[This message was deleted at the request of the original poster]

Change: Mario with 78.98%

On that note, now that a script is picking these up, is there still a need to use "Change" for each new pick?

Jon Thomson - MARIO, Samus, SOLID SNAKE, Bowser, CRONO, Squall, Sonic, MEGA MAN

Coming, shortly. I still need to find out which characters are in the contest. ;)

I like the script idea. Man, that'll be so nice for recording picks. Is Kaxon running the whole thing this contest? If so, he's got a tough act to follow.

He's doing the script-running, the topic-posting and the update posts, while I'm working on the website. He's doing the MySQL magic while I'm doing the PHP magic. And I'm not afraid for him, not only will he be a great host but he's on the west coast i.e. he'll be able to update when matches end, instead of hours late as I did. =P

Now I need to get my bracket done too....

You guys should post something at oraclechallenge.com like what I posted at sc2k5, in order to allow people to easily search for the Oracle topic:
