Wow, I must have been right in the middle of a pretty good cluster to gain five spots at this point in the contest in a Nintendo versus fodder match.

Final Fantasy with 74%

Mega Man is seemingly the adopted, Nintendo bastard in the contests, so he should perform slightly better.

I don't know FTW I was thinking when I put in my prediction. I said I wasn't going to go against my bracket, which had SSB winning today, yet somehow I had sonic with 85%... was I on crack? This is why I should have looked over my predictions.

Match #21 Results
Super Mario Bros. 81.13%
Warcraft 18.87%

After pulling the biggest upset of the contest last round, Warcraft got completely annihilated by Super Mario Bros. Mario threw a shell at all the Warcraft orcs and got a 1up, just like Ceej showed us in the match pic. All 134 predictions were for Mario, and the consensus was Mario with 73.78%. The average score was 42.23.

Best Five Picks:
1) heroic_slb - Super Mario Bros. 81.22% (+49.91)
2) ObscureMammoth - Super Mario Bros. 80.79% (+49.66)
3) Evil_REmade - Super Mario Bros. 81.92% (+49.21)
4) Ngamer64 - Super Mario Bros. 80.27% (+49.14)
5) The Real Truth - Super Mario Bros. 82.00% (+49.13)

Today's top scorer is darkx5642358951, formerly known as heroic_slb! This is his second top five of the contest and fifth all time. ObscureMammoth is back after missing a few matches, and he grabs second place. Because Mario did so much better than expected, all the other scores are more than .75 off. Evil_REmade scores third, his first top 5 ever, and NGamer gets back to business after his annual day off with a 4th place prediction. The Real Truth rounds out the top five, also scoring his first ever top 5.

Complete Match Ranking:
http://www.oraclechallenge.com/archives.php?contest=SpC2k6&type=match&match=21

Current Leaderboard:
1) TheKnightOfNee - 943.68
2) steve illumina - 940.92
3) Z1mZum - 937.76
4) kaonashi1 - 933.68
5) RX7InfinitiIII - 932.25

The lead has changed again! The top of the standings has been looking like musical chairs lately. Today TheKnightOfNee takes the lead from steve illumina - TheKnightOfNee previously held the lead three days ago. Steve illumina drops down to second place, so he'll be trying for a comeback. Z1mZum remains in third place and kaonashi1 remains in fourth place. RX7InfinitiIII returns to the leaderboard in fifth, working to reclaim the lead that he lost on day 18.

Top Team Scores:
1) Team Fodder - 97.90 (Coffee Ninja: +48.79 / Pats_Dynasty: +49.11)
2) Team Magician's Magic Ballz - 97.09 (BBallman7: +48.09 / magicians magic hat: +49.00)
3) Team 49 - 96.59 (Menji76: +48.02 / and now I dance: +48.57)
4) Team Predestined Divination - 96.01 (creativename: +46.87 / Ngamer64: +49.14)
5) Team Shut up Kleenex - 94.72 (Repus_Yortsed: +48.87 / Luster Soldier: +45.85)

Today's top team is Team Fodder! I guess that makes the rest of the teams uber-fodder. Second is Team Magician's Magic Ballz, featuring BBallman7 and magicians magic hat. Menji and and now I dance score third, but still haven't thought of a name for their team, which I'm going to refer to as Team "and now I menj". Predestined Divination makes another top five appearance - they may still have a chance of living up to the pre-contest hype. Finally Team Shut Up Kleenex shuts Kleenex up for a day by finishing in fifth place.

Complete Team Match Ranking:
http://www.oraclechallenge.com/archives.php?contest=SpC2k6&type=teammatch&match=21

Team Leaderboard:
1) Team mvp's (ps2rulezzz / basmeyer42) - 1851.31
2) Team Jigglypuff (Alanna82 / kawaiifan) - 1839.11
3) Team No Probalo! (Lagoona / Xuxon) - 1838.66
4) Team lol xstats (yoshifan823 / BlAcK TuRtLe) - 1837.17
5) Team Eden (ad00 / TheCruelAngel) - 1835.90

Team mvp's remains in first for the sixth straight day. Alanna and kawaiifan move into second place, and are looking like a serious contender for the title. Team No Probalo! drops down one spot to third, but remains close behind. Team lol xstats remains in fourth again today, and Team Eden moves up one spot to bump team 55 from the leaderboard.
