Amazing, this is almost exactly how I expected the match to go. I wasn't sure if Squall would catch up when I made my prediction, and I'm still not sure. But I have a feeling he won't be able to do it, and he may not even make an effort.

From: Ngamer64 | Posted: 9/10/2005 10:59:46 PM | Message Detail
Dang it all! My one chance to pick up big points on the lead, and you had to go and wreck everything!

Anyways, my thinking on the FF7 characters prior to the contest was that their popularity went like this: Cloud > Seph > Aeris > Vincent > Tifa, with the bottom 3 being all in the same range. After those huge first round wins I was looking silly, but they've come back down to earth now and I just might end up being right after all. So I'm making today's call with that in mind.

Sonic 54.03%

Gives Vincent a 1% range to fall into between the two ladies.

Match #54 Results:
Vincent Valentine 50.59%
Squall Leonhart 49.41%

The match that was almost evenly split in predictions turns out to be the closest match of the contest so far. There were 34 Squall predictions and 38 Vincent predictions. The consensus was Vincent with 50.25% and the average score was 44.02.

Best Five Picks:
1) Ikon - Vincent Valentine 50.50% (+49.91)
2) meche313 - Vincent Valentine 50.70% (+49.89)
3) The n00b Avenger - Vincent Valentine 50.76% (+49.83)
4) PeaceOut64 - Vincent Valentine 50.80% (+49.79)
5) CaptainFlufflez - Vincent Valentine 50.34% (+49.75)

Ikon gets the best pick today with a 50.50% prediction. This is Ikon's second win and fourth top 5. meche313 is second, for his second top 5. The n00b Avenger gets his third top 5 with a third place finish, as does PeaceOut64 with his fourth place finish. CaptainFlufflez gets his sixth top five of the contest. Meanwhile, the Vincent hedgers finished in a six-way tie for tenth.

Complete match ranking:

Current Leaderboard:
1) Xuxon - 2376.55
2) creativename - 2376.54
3) Master Moltar - 2372.26
4) Haste2 - 2368.07
5) StopPokingMe - 2364.82

Only StopPokingMe saves this from being the most boring leaderboard ever, as Xuxon, creativename, Master Moltar, and Haste2 all had exactly the same prediction. Sadly, unoriginality triumphed as StopPokingMe dropped two spots by picking Squall. TenkoStar in sixth place ALSO had exactly the same prediction as Xuxon, creativename, Master Moltar, and Haste2. StopPokingMe, I salute you.

Devil Division Leaderboard (Final):

3) StopPokingMe - 301.39
4) Rufus Shinra 18 - 298.10
5) Master Moltar - 292.89

Rodri absolutely ran away with this division - his margin of victory was almost ten full points over only seven matches. Xuxon finished in second, moving up from third place and passing StopPokingMe, who finished in third. Rufus Shinra 18 held on to his fourth place spot and held a comfortable 5 point margin over Master Moltar in 5th.

.somdude, two things:

You misspelled 'Snake' and you entered a pick for Mega Man now that his third round match isn't over yet. That means the automatic system will take this prediction as the round 3 one... I think.
