I was browsing my profile on the site and it showed my top 5's as 8 and then something like (1,2,1,2,1)

What does that mean?

I could have got 1st and it still would have been an average pick. I mean, I can't help it if everyone just sucked worse than me.

And after seeing what the next contest is going to be, I guess treating this as a warmup is no longer prudent. I have no idea how much Tron Bonne is going to beat Dixie Kong by.

I don't know if it's ****ing bull**** but if it is ****ing bull**** then it's not worth my time to go back and look for it. Or is it? Look at the number of people who asked nicely and got their problem fixed, guess what, we're not perfect, the script isn't perfect, but there are good and bad ways to ask for something...geez

Oh and if you hadn't figured it out, yelling at me is one of the bad ways

Looks like I'm going to finish a few spots short of last year unless I somehow get a couple of these last matches dead on. Although it looks like FF is rapidly increasing its percentage. Hopefully it can stop around 77.77%

If anyone catches the FF humor....

Match #27 Results
Super Mario Bros. 61.76%
Super Smash Bros. 38.24%

Super Smash Bros. surprised a lot of people yesterday by keeping it relatively close to Super Mario Bros. As many people pointed out, Mario did worse against Smash than Final Fantasy VII did against SSBM, which doesn't bode well for Mario next round. There were 122 Super Mario predictions while 6 rebels predicted a win for Smash.

Best Five Picks:
1) GalacticMage777 - Super Mario Bros. 61.55% (+49.79)
1) GoldSlime35 - Super Mario Bros. 61.55% (+49.79)
3) Agent M - Super Mario Bros. 62.00% (+49.76)
4) Dekar TKB - Super Mario Bros. 61.19% (+49.43)
4) Applekidjosh - Super Mario Bros. 62.33% (+49.43)

Today's top score is a tie between GalacticMage and GoldSlime! Both predicted Mario with 61.55. This is GalacticMage's first top five of the contest and third lifetime; it's GoldSlime's third of the contest and 21st lifetime. Agent M scores his second top five of the contest with a third place prediction. And we have a second tie, this time for fourth between Dekar TKB and Applekidjosh. Both have been in the top five a fair amount this contest - four times for Dekar TKB and three for Josh.

Complete Match Ranking:
http://www.oraclechallenge.com/archives.php?contest=SpC2k6&type=match&match=27

Current Leaderboard:
1) Xuxon - 1209.91
2) Ness26 - 1209.09
3) Z1mZum - 1204.91
4) GoldSlime35 - 1203.41
5) TheKnightOfNee - 1202.86

This is a close one, alright! Xuxon holds on to the lead for a second day, but is still less than 1 point ahead of second place Ness26. Z1mZum moves up one spot to third, and GoldSlime35 jumps 8 places with his top prediction, landing on the leaderboard at #4. TheKnightOfNee drops down two spots two fifth, but is only 7.05 points out of first.

Top Team Scores:
1) Team Horrible Rivalry - 95.57 (KleenexTissue50: +46.14 / Applekidjosh: +49.43)
2) Team SPO*N - 94.57 (Weird Kirby Dude11: +47.06 / ActJef1077: +47.51)
3) Team Obscuretemple - 93.51 (Seginustemple: +47.22 / ObscureMammoth: +46.29)
4) Team Robo Chocobo Remix - 90.72 (Inviso: +44.12 / Vlado: +46.60)
5) Team ***** - 89.77 (Janus5000: +41.53 / Sess: +48.24)

The best team of the day is KleenexTissue and Applekidjosh! Team Horrible Rivalry set aside its rivalry for one day to score top spot in the team contest. Team SPO*N lands in second, exactly 1 point below Team Horrible Rivalry. Team Obscuretemple gets the third best score of the day. Behind them is a three point gap, and Team Robo Chocobo Remix ("Final Fantasy is an R P G...") in fourth place. Sess and Janus's Team ***** takes fifth for the day.

Complete Team Match Ranking:
http://www.oraclechallenge.com/archives.php?contest=SpC2k6&type=teammatch&match=27

Team Leaderboard:
1) Team mvp's (ps2rulezzz / basmeyer42) - 2386.37
2) Team Jigglypuff (Alanna82 / kawaiifan) - 2382.33
3) Team No Probalo! (Lagoona / Xuxon) - 2380.26
4) Team Happy Happyists (Camden / meche313) - 2378.33
5) Team Predestined Divination (creativename / Ngamer64) - 2369.57

Minor changes on the leaderboard, but the big news is that the mvp's have faltered! Their ten point lead collapses with a pair of bad predictions yesterday, allowing Team Jigglypuff to close the gap to four points. Team No Probalo! remains in third, but is now only 6 points out of first. The Happy Happyists move up one spot, switching places with Team Predestined Divindation. It's interesting to see the degree to which the superteams are dominating the team competition. While there are plenty of new faces at the top of the individual standings, every team in the top 5 has at least one legitimate star, and 9/10 of the competitors have achieved some success in past Oracle contests.
