That pic of Big Boss is really the worst they could have given him. I bet if they gave him this

http://www.metalgear.it/mgs3/sne/chara/chara_01_a.gif

he would have at least 35% of the votes.

Ouch... my first bad prediction =(

Finally. Honestly, I was starting to be afraid right here, this guy comes within half a point of BQ's record 19.18 points lead, in 7 friggin' matches
Nice to see you're human after all ;). And yes take it personal. As a compliment.

On another matter:
This is really turning into an epic struggle...

76) King Morgoth 281.24
77) Kaxon 281.04

One day I'll catch you, Morgoth!! *shakes fist*

An epic struggle in 76th place, at least we're trying to make this interesting =P

The point difference between 1st and 2nd is now as wide as the difference between 2nd and 34th.
Actually, it's as wide as the difference between 3rd and 53rd. Saying that hurts even more =P
Oh and less than 4 points separate 35th from 59th. Talk about a close race.

SC2k4 - 12th place

Xenobi extends his streak of top 5 predictions to an impressive four in a row. If he hadn't missed the Mario vs Joanna match, he would have an excellent chance of being on the overall leaderboard right now

Yeah, and too bad I choked. Unless Auron drops 11 points on his %, I royally screwed up today.

Man, it's too bad I didn't get in the first two matches. My average is looking good right now at 45.57. My Auron prediction is also pretty solid. Has there been people in past contests that have come back from completely missing matches entirely? Probably not. :(

I did pretty good in the guru challenge but yoblazer did slightly better.

In the first Oracle Challenge, Ngamer finished 8th after missing a match... but it's pretty difficult.

Lumni your average is much higher then others because you missed the CJ vs NESs match. There was a very low average there, if that match didn't happen the averages would have been much higher.

OMG! The first time I get a Top 5 prediction and it was actually the best of the day! I actually can't believe it...

It sucks that as of now, my prediction for Auron is around 9% behind. I'm getting stomped <__<

That's right. Cloud N. Candy would get a NEGATIVE percentage, and RPGuy's extrapolated calculator would crash. - therealmnm

HONESTLY the first time I low ball it ever since I overestimate all the winners, auron stays with my first high guess. CRAP!!!!!!!

ALL YOUR VOTES ARE BELONG TO...Pac-Man?

True I did miss the hardest match to predict, but I would have guessed CJ with about 55 percent. Would have been a bad guess, but wouldn't have knocked me down too far. Oh well, all I can hope to do is move up slowly and guess really well from here on out. BTW: My name's Luni. :P

Camden, is that a typo?

No.

My prediction for Auron was a typo though, so you really should change it. My intended prediction was 71.33, give or take a few percent to reflect whatever he ends up having after the poll closes.

Board 8: Where people treat each other right.

Hey, Kaxon/Morgoth, I changed my Auron pick (again) to 68% a few pages back, yet you still have me down for 65%. I also changed my Ryu (Street Fighter) prediction to 62%, which you haven't updated yet.

Also, I've noticed a lot of unnecessary discussion going on in this topic lately...do you think a separate Oracle Challenge discussion topic would be a good idea?

I added that little line right there specifically so that people would know where we're at, and I even added the timezone to make sure you know what I'm talking about. You look tired or something =P

Oh and about the topic, it seems to be working well at the moment so there's no need to change...yet

Personally I like having discussion here. I have a feeling that if we created a separate discussion thread, a lot of people wouldn't bother to check it. So let's keep it like this unless it becomes a problem.
