I know nothing about Metal Gear and at least I've heard of Soul Calibur before so I chose Soul Calibur.

IMPORTANT ANOUNCEMENT

For roughly 48 hours, the website might be down, somewhat down, links might go missing, numbers might be all over the place, etc.... Daily Rankings (the ones directly on the main page of the site) will be up and accurate at all time. Everything else will definitely be unstable, as I found a few holes in the coding (and opened up a bunch more...). Once everything is done, complete team rankings will be available for everyone to see...

Nicely timed with the deadline too!

SpC2k4 Triple Crown WINNER (Oracle, Betting, Spread Betting)
SC2k4 - 12th place

Match #4 Results
Metroid 70.57%
Kirby 29.43%

Four matches into the contest, and we've yet to see a match closer than 65/35. Today's match was an SFF affair between Metroid and Kirby, with Metroid easily doubling the puffball. There were 158 Metroid picks and 3 Kirby picks. The consensus was Metroid with 65.02%, and the average score was 42.29 points.

Best Five Picks:
1) heroic_slb - Metroid 70.41% (+49.84)
2) Sess - Metroid 70.19% (+49.62)
3) Rad Link 5 - Metroid 70.15% (+49.58)
4) Z1mZum - Metroid 71.00% (+49.57)
5) Seginustemple - Metroid 71.02% (+49.55)
5) XxSoulxX - Metroid 70.12% (+49.55)

Today's top predictor is darkx5642358951, also known as heroic_slb! This is his first ever #1 prediction and his 4th top 5. In second place is Sess, scoring 49.62 points - this is his first top 5, but only his 4th Oracle Match. Rad Link 5 places third, another competitor scoring his first top 5 in his first Oracle Challenge. Relative old-timer Z1mZum has the fourth best prediction, while Seginustemple and Soul tie for fifth, despite having two different predictions.

Complete Match Ranking:
http://www.oraclechallenge.com/archives.php?contest=SpC2k6&type=match&match=4

Current Leaderboard:
1) Lightbearer75 - 195.94
2) Tsunami70 - 195.61
3) XxSoulxX - 194.75
4) swirldude - 192.74
5) Z1mZum - 191.69

The leaderboard is starting to stabilize a little bit as we get further into the contest - today Lightbearer and Tsunami remain 1-2, but they switch spots, with Lightbearer taking over first place. Soul moves up to 3rd place from 7th, whole swirldude remains right behind him, climbing from 8th to 4th. The fifth spot on the leaderboard goes to Z1mZum, who moves up 13 spots thanks to his excellent prediction.

The biggest movers in today's standings were Seginustemple, who climbed 53 spots, and yoshifan823, who failed to make a prediction and dropped 142 spots from 4th place to 146th.

Nominate Aeris for SC2k6

Top Team Scores:
1) Team Double Red Card - 95.49 (Darkash: +49.39 / Heroic Viktor: +46.10)
2) Team 55 - 95.32 (Sir Chris: +49.49 / The n00b Avenger: +45.83)
3) Team 4chan party van - 94.86 (RX7InfinitiIII: +49.43 / goku z: +45.43)
4) Team 52 - 94.70 (Tsunami70: +48.09 / marioinblack: +46.61)
5) Team Auto-Lose - 94.59 (Ed Bellis: +49.26 / Explicit Content: +45.33)

The top team scores were really clustered together today - there were no teams above 95.5, but 6 teams were between 95.5 and 94.5. They also follow a common pattern of having one person with a high score and one person with a more average score. Team Double Red Card appears in the daily top 5 for the second time in only four days, this time with the best score of the day. They're off to an excellent start in this contest. The second highest scoring team is Team 55, with Sir Chris and The n00b Avenger. Team 4chan party van is the 3rd highest scoring team for the second day in a row. Also making their second appearance in the top 5 is Team 52, with overall second place competitor Tsunami70, and marioinblack. Finally, Team Auto-Lose fails to live up to their name by scoring the fifth best team total today.

Complete Team Match Ranking:
http://oraclechallenge.com/archives.php?contest=SpC2k6&type=teammatch&match=4

Team Leaderboard:
1) Team Double Red Card - 374.54
2) Team 48 - 370.87
3) Team I Voted For Kodos - 370.78
4) Team Crab People - 370.01
5) Team 42 - 368.56

The team standings got shaken up quite a bit today. Heroic Viktor and Darkash's Team Double Red Card moves into first place by almost four points, taking advantage of a bad day from former leader Team 47. Team 48 (yoshifan and Black Turtle) also moves onto the leaderboard in second place, despite yoshifan missing the match - Turtle's well above average prediction was enough to carry the team for today. In third place is Team I Voted For Kodos, which moved up thanks to a great prediction from cyko. Team Crab People is the sole holdover from yesterday's leaderboard, hanging in there in fourth place. In fifth place is Team 42, featuring therealmnm and swirldude.

Team 48 (yoshifan and Black Turtle) also moves onto the leaderboard in second place, despite yoshifan missing the match - Turtle's well above average prediction was enough to carry the team for today.

Did yoshi submit a percentage for MG/SC? Or has he gone AWOL?

And can you name our team: lol xstats.
