Match #16 Results
Resident Evil 87.76%
Shadow Hearts 12.24%

This needs any comments? BOOM! That'll be enough. Resident Evil didn't fool around and shows what kind of fodder Shadow Hearts really is. All 165 predictions were for Resident Evil but, as only 5 people overshot, the consensus was 76.58% and the average was a disastrous 38.72 points.

Best Five Picks:
1) cavedog0 - Resident Evil 87.90% (+49.86)
2) somdude04 - Resident Evil 88.55% (+49.21)
3) plasmabeam - Resident Evil 89.43% (+48.33)
4) Weird Kirby Dude11 - Resident Evil 89.90% (+47.86)
5) XxSoulxX - Resident Evil 85.35% (+47.59)

A few people saw this coming and grab a Top5 on the way! cavedog0 grabs the best pick of the day as he appears here for the 3rd time ever. somdude04, with his 2nd Top 5 this season and 16th overall follows some distance behind and plasmabeam gets his first ever Top 5 as he grabs 3rd place. Weird Kirby Dude11 (7th All-Time Top 5) and XxSoulxX (with his 3rd Top 5 this season!) complete the list.

Well the Oracle challenge is, and your a vet of it... so it works!

I was starting to wonder if GFK was the closest user. If you're in the top 5/10 ill get ya a beer =P

Whoamg, up 16 spots from a single result! Too bad creative had a bit of an off day, or we'd have done some serious damage in the Team ranks... well, here's hoping he went high with me today!

Gah... so close to my 7th all time #1.
Considering I missed all of SC2k3 and 3/4ths of SpC2k4 and I'm tied for 5th, 2 wins beinhd first, that's not too bad. Sadly, the majority of my picks the season have been in the 90th or worse place, taking me completely out of the long-term competition. I'm here for stage victories essentially.

Hmmm, I might hit #7 today though. Zelda's at 80.14%, and it does well with the day vote. It may pull up the 1% to reach my prediction.

Not changing signature until HHH pedigrees Candice through a table. 07/07/06

Looks like Lightbearer won't be in first any more tomorrow. He's actually not the first person to drop out of first place by missing a prediction - daniel2424 did it in SC2k3. In SC2k4, Bananaquest was in second place when he disappeared, never to be seen again. And in SpC2k5, MegatokyoEd was in third when he missed the first match of the second round.

It is a little embarassing that he's been beating us all without even being here, though.

There's going to be a lot of attrition tomorrow - we dropped from 165 competitors to 124. That's still a lot for an Oracle Challenge, though.
