Peach could easily break 60 still. Jill collapsed with the day vote last match; she ended 4.5% below what she had at the 5 minute mark.

Yeah, shame, but think Peach could get to over 56? (I'd still be losing 10 points, but meh.)
From: Redtooth | Posted: 10/16/2006 9:41:28 PM | Message Detail
Hey, are the previous topics saved anywhere? I dunno what I was thinking taking Jill, seeing as I have her losing in my bracket...and I've been arguing how she didn't have a chance. I just need my post to laugh at myself. Thanks

Match #35 Results
Tifa Lockhart 74.55%
The Boss 25.45%

Tifa looked great against The Boss today, coming close to a tripling and providing some support for the theory that Square characters may be stronger this year. The consensus was Tifa with 69.73% and the average score was 44.65. All 124 predictions were for Tifa.

Best Five Picks:
1) OmegaRagnarok - Tifa Lockhart 74.51% (+49.96)
2) plasmabeam - Tifa Lockhart 74.24% (+49.69)
3) Jmast7 - Tifa Lockhart 74.91% (+49.64)
4) Alanna82 - Tifa Lockhart 75.00% (+49.55)
4) Dilated Chemist - Tifa Lockhart 75.00% (+49.55)
4) ertyu001 - Tifa Lockhart 75.00% (+49.55)

OmegaRagnarok gets today's best prediction by a comfortable margin - this is his second top five prediction (both of them #1's). Plasmabeam has the second best prediction, and both of his top fives this contest have been second places. Jmast7 gets third, for his first lifetime top 5. We have a three-way tie for fourth between three legends: former champion Dilated Chemist (getting his 29th top 5), multiple top-10 finisher Alanna82, and ertyu, who's gotten three top 5's this contest.

Complete Match Ranking:
http://www.oraclechallenge.com/archives.php?contest=SC2k6&type=match&match=35

Current Leaderboard:
1) Karma Hunter - 1593.77
2) DSRage - 1592.12
3) cyko - 1589.25
4) Kaxon - 1588.56
5) Draco1214 - 1588.31

There's only one change on today's leaderboard, but it's a big one: Draco makes a low Tifa prediction and falls to 5th, allowing Karma Hunter to retake the lead. Everyone else in the top five moves up one spot. We still have a pretty tight race on the leaderboard - these five are within five and a half points of each other, but there's a six and a half point gap between them and Rodri in sixth place.

Full Standings:
http://www.oraclechallenge.com/archives.php?contest=SC2k6&type=total&match=35

Top Team Scores:
1) Team AAA - 94.60 (Aprosenf: +46.34 / Ayvuir: +48.26)
2) Team I'll Be Here The Whole Time - 94.40 (TheKnightOfNee: +46.57 / catldr24: +47.83)
3) Team Awesome - 94.20 (Dilated Chemist: +49.55 / Z1mZum: +44.65)
4) Team Jigglypuff - 94.00 (Alanna82: +49.55 / kawaiifan: +44.45)
5) Team Fluke - 93.97 (phlyerphan1: +47.07 / MoogleKupo141: +46.90)

As Aprosenf pointed out, we have some interesting numbers here today - Team AAA is first with 94.60 points, and they're followed by Team I'll Be Here The Whole Time, Team Awesome, and Team Jigglypuff, each exactly 0.20 points behind the next. Team Fluke breaks the pattern by scoring 93.97.

Complete Team Match Ranking:
http://www.oraclechallenge.com/archives.php?contest=SC2k6&type=teammatch&match=35

Team Leaderboard:
1) Team Unfinished FFP (Ed Bellis / Karma Hunter) - 3171.91
2) Team The Spirit of Truth (Draco1214 / Rodri316) - 3169.06
3) Team We Used To Be Good? (Kaxon / King Morgoth) - 3167.52
4) Team Rage of Warcraft (War13104 / DSRage) - 3143.00
5) Team mvp's (ps2rulezzz / basmeyer42) - 3142.17

Team Unfinished FFP reclaims the lead that they lost on day 28! The Spirit of Truth drops down to second place, and Team We Used To Be Good? stays in third. There's an impressive 24 point gap between the top three and the fourth place team - which is understandable if you notice the amazing fact that all six people on the top three teams are currently in the individual top 10. Team Unfinished FFP has Karma Hunter (#1) and Ed Bellis (#9), Team The Spirit of Truth has Draco (#5) and Rodri (#6), and Team We Used To Be Good? has Kaxon (#4) and King Morgoth (#7). Last contest no one team had two top ten finishers.

I'm with Camden. I guess I was proven wrong but it baffles me why this is even a close match.

Though what I wonder is not so much Peach's weakness, but JV's strength. I know its lol x-stats but the best she could hope to do according to them was 44% on 2k5 yoshi, and less than 40% on all the other 2k5 Mario characters.

And Ada looked like fodder against Samus.
