Part of the problem was that I had the final topic from the last contest tagged, and I never noticed that it had been closed. I kept checking it, waiting for new posts. Then I had some family problems, followed by some internet problems, followed by really, really getting into Suikoden 5.

I was playing Suikoden V before I came to Ireland. That and MGS3. I miss my PS2. =(

The Top 10 SC2k6 Oracle Challenge Contenders

The Oracle Challenge is all about predicting the outcome of GameFAQs contest matches. But we like to predict the Oracle Challenge itself, too. Some competitors have proven themselves time and again, some are up and comers, while some are old timers poised for a comeback. Here are our picks for the ten contestants to watch this time around. Last contest Xuxon proved once and for all that the Oracle Challenge is a game of skill, and all ten of these people have been successful in past Oracle Challenges.

This time around King Morgoth and I are working together to write the feature, so we're going to take turns posting writeups, starting now.

Why have all my decisions based on majority opinion come back to bite me in the rear?"

There are people who build up a winning reputation after a few years of hard work. And then there are those people that jump out of nowhere and simply kick your ass. One contest doesn't make a career, but with 17 days on the Leaderboard and 3 Top 5's in the most competitive contest yet, TheKnightOfNee showed everyone that even rookies can fight with the big guys and make their way to the Final Leaderboard, something nobody had done in 2 years...

Whoa, top 5'd. ^_^

You can't mention TheKnightOfNee without talking about Ness26 as well. Ness26 was one of the biggest surprises of the July Oracle Challenge. Entering the Oracle for his first time, Ness26 shocked everybody by finishing in second place. He put together a very consistent contest, entering the top 10 on Metal Gear vs Fire Emblem and entering the top 5 three days later, where he stayed. Ness26 has a chance to become of the Oracle stars if he can repeat his success from last contest this time around.

"By the way, have you ever thought of upgrading from Excel to maybe a MySQL database with a Python reporting frontend? =)"

The sentence that made it all possible. A website containing (technically) over 1500 pages that can fit on a floppy disk. Gotta give the guy credit, if this contest is still going strong it's only because he managed to convince me that we could do it. Oh, and he'll kick your ass too. A lifetime average over 44 points, 60 straight days on the leaderboard in SC2k4, leading over a week in the process, and never finished lower than 20th in a complete contest. One of those who has the instinct but never quite had the chance to finish the job, and this might just be his year...

"I'm...on the decline? No."

Ah! Haste, the first legend on our list. The original Oracle Champion is still going strong, and his return to the board should help him get back in shape. One of only 4 users who predicted every single match in Oracle history, Haste spent 58 days on the leaderboard and grabbed 26 Top 5 predictions on the way. He has never placed lower than 8th in a summer contest, and he's always rebounded after a bad contest, his difficult SpC2k6 run should only be one more motivation for him...
