Match # 55 Results
Solid Snake 32.44%
L-Block 28.63%
Kratos (God of War) 20.91%
Riku 18.02%
The insanity continues! L-Block pulled the seemingly impossible feat of leading Snake for over four hours, and in the end won a decisive victory over Kratos and Riku. Snake's woes can be blamed on the picture to some extent, but Kratos and Riku have no excuses. Will L-Block somehow continue the trend and get second next round as well? Its percentage has hardly budged over three rounds of progressively tougher opponents.
Today's average score was 45.66 and the consensus predictions were Kratos - 21.29%, L-Block - 23.35%, Riku - 17.22%, Snake - 39.12%.
Best Five Picks:
1) Xcarvengerx - Kratos (GoW) 21.16% - L-Block 28.28% - Riku 17.23% - Solid Snake 33.33% (+49.43)
2) Xuxon - Kratos (GoW) 21.00% - L-Block 26.00% - Riku 19.00% - Solid Snake 34.00% (+48.68)
3) alpha door - Kratos (GoW) 20.00% - L-Block 27.00% - Riku 17.00% - Solid Snake 36.00% (+48.22)
4) RPGuy96 - Kratos (GoW) 21.09% - L-Block 24.09% - Riku 18.28% - Solid Snake 36.53% (+47.73)
5) capatillistpiglet - Kratos (GoW) 22.00% - L-Block 24.00% - Riku 19.00% - Solid Snake 35.00% (+47.68)
Xcarvengerx had an uncannily good prediction today, gaining him 49.43 points and a #1 pick. Former two time champ Xuxon was second, for his 2nd top 5 of the contest and 25th of all time. Alpha door had the third best pick, also for his second top 5 this contest, while RPGuy96 got his first top 5 of the contest with the 4th best prediciton. Capatillistpiglet got fifth... close to two points separated Xcarvengerx from fifth place capatillistpiglet.

Current Leaderboard:
1) The n00b Avenger - 2576.13
2) MegatokyoEd - 2571.60
3) creativename - 2570.83
4) DSRage - 2570.18
5) Haste2 - 2569.54
BIG shakeup in the standings today, but it hardly touched the leaderboard. Haste2 reclaimed 5th place from smitelf while smitelf dropped down to sixth. N00b Avenger's lead has also shrunk to 4.53 points; today he had the worst prediction among the top 5.
The biggest event today was Ngamer missing the match by posting his prediction an hour late - he dropped from 9th down to 44th, which opened a vacuum in the standings. Two strong competitors and an Oracle host moved in to fill it: kawaiifan climbed three spots to 9th place, Camden jumped 6 spots to pull off the seemingly-impossible return to the top 10, and I moved up three places to 11th.
Also, let me take this opportunity to point out that daylight savings time in the US does NOT end this weekend. If you live in Europe, the deadline is going to be 1 hour earlier for you starting today. Note: Ngamer does not live in Europe. =P
