This looks bad. I'm going to need some serious help if I'm to ever get back into the single digits.

Match #51 Results:
Solid Snake 65.26%
Sora 34.74%

Today Solid Snake made a huge statement, scoring a big win after enduring a year of speculation about whether he deserved to be part of the noble nine. For a while it looked like he could exceed Samus's percentage against Sora, but Sora gained enough in the afternoon to put a stop to that. Today all the predictions were for Snake and the consensus was Snake with 57.42%. The average score was 42.12.

Best Five Picks:
1) Sephirot1 Returns - Solid Snake 65.55% (+49.71)
2) Ringworm - Solid Snake 64.71% (+49.45)
3) KingBartz - Solid Snake 64.57% (+49.31)
4) Ikon - Solid Snake 64.12% (+48.86)
5) OmegaRagnarok - Solid Snake 66.67% (+48.59)

Today Sephirot1 Returns makes the top prediction, for his first top 5 appearance this contest. Top 5 king Ringworm gets his 7th top 5 of the contest and 28th lifetime. KingBartz takes third, for his fourth top 5. Ikon gets his third top 5 and OmegaRagnarok gets his sixth, which ties him for third on the Most Top 5s of the Contest list.

Complete match ranking:

Current Leaderboard:
1) creativename - 2238.22
2) Xuxon - 2234.48
3) StopPokingMe - 2231.81
4) Master Moltar - 2231.43
5) Heroic Viktor - 2230.32

The race at the top of the standings remains very close today. Heroic Viktor falls two spots, allowing StopPokingMe and Master Moltar to each move up one space. Creativename and Xuxon remain in first and second place, but creativename's lead has narrowed a little because his prediction today was lower than Xuxon's, StopPokingMe's, and Moltar's.

Full standings:

Gear Division Leaderboard (Final):
1) Xuxon - 321.56
2) octoinky - 321.22
3) Ikon - 319.88
4) creativename - 319.75
5) Camden - 318.63

Xuxon ekes out a very narrow victory over octoinky, coming from five and a half points back to win the division. A little ways behind them, Ikon takes third place followed by creativename and Camden.

WHAT?!? I was leading gear division? Oh man.. I've had the worst picks ever this year, that's a huge shock. I should have picked a bit more of a safety for that then, oh well. heh.
From: Ringworm | Posted: 9/8/2005 12:31:54 AM | Message Detail
With the amount of Top 5's I've had, you'd think I'd do better than I do overall. Think this is about the closest I've been at this stage of a contest (40th).

Awww man. I was so close to a top 5 appearance in the Gear division. I'm sad now. :(

Wait, how did I get that high up? My predictions for the Gear division weren't AMAZING or anything O_o
From: Kaxon | Posted: 9/8/2005 1:03:47 AM | Message Detail
You don't really need to have amazing predictions to do well in this contest, you just need to be consistent. The average score in this contest so far is 41.88 points. If you could score just 2 points above average in every match, you'd be in second place right now.

No, I know for the whole contest consistency is important, but I'm talking about just the Gear division. Only seven matches. Not terribly bracket-busting, either. I'm just surprised since I don't remember my predictions being all that great. None of them were bad either, I guess. My Kratos/Alucard was almost top 5 I think.

and my pick for today is so bad too....

meh, I hope I dont fall down too badly like I did last time I went out of town. (aka last year, I had awful picks when I went out of town)

I like my Crono Pick though so I wont change it (then again I liked my Snake and my Bowser picks too. well at least this means Snake will beat Bowser.)

Well, I hadn't check the overall standings for a few days, and I'm already 23th! (and jumping 2 spots on such a big pick of yesterday)

Don't forget me, because I've been slowly taking off the lead and getting closer! My Bowser pick is decent (or regular, for that matter) so I'm doing great still.

Funny, you get the exact percentage for me to take the lead (64.47) extrapolating MC=27BL and Crono=38BL. It was my first thought several days ago, and it seems too awesome not to predict that now that I've noticed, heh. Now, I think Crono is probably a bit stronger than that, but it's certainly possible.

Hm... Crono IS my Champ pick, after all, and I'd love to be able to throw up a huge number for him here. But that MC day vote strength is nothing short of scary, and when you combine that with the fast start/huge drop pattern of your traditional CT character, I shudder to think what's going to happen to Crono's % once the kids get out of school.

And let's not underestimate the "lightsaber ripoff factor."
