IIRC a lot of people who would eventually turn on Undertale were cheering Undertale on in that match with ME3. ME3 was and still is a controversial game and many people were happy to see it go down with expectation that some other game would put an end to Undertale. That didn't quite go as planned.

Ace Attorney Anime Season 2 Episode 11 Spoilers
The train case is pretty good so far. I have no idea how Gale's body disappeared and I wonder why it showed up near Gumshoe instead of the culprit just tossing it off the train.

I'm not sure what to make of Richman's case. We still don't know that much about it and there seems to be an implication that some of the evidence is forged in some way. That makes it pretty difficult to figure out. Like I considered the possibility that there really were two people with a bandaged hand but I'm not sure where I could go with that.

I still think it's funny that a neutral wouldn't hold Nintendo in high regard, they are by far the largest company in gaming. It would be like wondering why Disney does so well in a movies contest.

Well there is a certain divide between the "mainstream" gaming and the "hardcore" gaming.

A lot of people who play games like Nintendo and Pokemon, but if you are a true gamer, you are supposed to enjoy AAA shooters in your Xbox, not play games for the filthy casuals.

It's like the general mainstream isn't the same as the hardcore, industry mainstream.

But if it is just hardcore voters without general mainstream voters, does that count as neutral?

Fox could go 50-50 with Pikachu and it would be a massive turn around. Pikachu is more likely to easily clear 55.

Since Monster was one of the first anime that I saw, the pacing never really bothered me. After every episode I always wanted to keep watching the next one. It's pretty rare for me to run into another series like that these days.

Hypothetical mini-contest: Characters that have never appeared in a CB before.

Do we have enough untapped midcarders to make this actually interesting? Field could be wide open, although it seems like Pokemon could run wild and this could just turn into a big proxy war for the other franchises.

Linkle, Dark Samus and various Gen 1 Pokemon will have a field day.

This was not the best year for my bracket.
Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest!

This topic is for Grand Final only.
If your prediction depends on the result of the Losers Final match, please make it clear.

The Challenge

For each match in the GameFAQs Character Battle X Contest (referred herein as "CBX"), you need to pick a winner and predict the percentage of the vote they will receive. New participants will always be accepted throughout the contest (but please indicate that you are new and make a minimum of three picks).

Post your predictions in this topic, one prediction per line. Your predictions must start with the name of your winner and end with your predicted percentage. Examples:

Link with 51.82%
Link 52.44%
Link over Cloud with 53.93%
Link - 53.54%

Please use one of these formats, and always remember to include the % sign. Predictions are entered into our database by a script, which may miss your predictions if you use some other weird format or forget to include the % sign.

The Scoring

For each match you will earn points based on how close your guess was to the actual outcome. Scoring is cumulative and the winner of the CBX Oracle Challenge will be the person with the most points at the end of the final match! For each match you can earn anywhere from 0 and 50 points. The scoring system works as follows:

Correctly choosing the winner earns you 50-x points.
Incorrectly choosing the winner earns you 45-x points.
(Where x is the difference between your guess and the character's actual final percentage.)

Example:

Your guess: Cloud with 55%
My guess: Link with 55%
Actual result: Link 60%, Cloud 40%
Your score: 45 - (55-40) = 30 points
My score: 50 - (60-55) = 45 points

The Rules

It is necessary to have a few rules to keep the challenge running smoothly. Here they are:

1) A valid entry consists of a clear pick and prediction (i.e. Link with 77.77%). The prediction must be greater than or equal to 50.00%.
2) Your prediction does not need to be different from everybody else's. However, intentional and continuous prediction mimicry will NOT be allowed.
3) All predictions must be made before the usual start time of that match's poll (at exactly 12:00 AM GMT/UTC). Predictions submitted after this time will NOT be counted. No predictions will be accepted after the poll has started, regardless of the start time.
4) You may change your prediction for any match at any time, subject to the other rules.
5) You may NOT delete any post in a prediction topic (if you do, please post immediately after to explain the deletion). This is to prevent abuse of the above rules and to reduce confusion.
6) If you have made a mistake with any of your predictions, please don't edit or delete your post. Simply make another post with your corrected predictions (subject to the above rules).
7) If you post with an alt, you must clearly state the name of your main account.
8) You may predict matches for future divisions/rounds in advance if you need to. Please tell me beforehand in the Discussion Topic so we can arrange this.
9) I reserve the right to disqualify a pick for any justifiable reason.

Team Challenge

The popular Team Challenge is back again! If you want to be in a team, head to the sign-up topic and confirm your team before the first matches of the contest begin. Once the first matches begin, you're out of luck if you want to be in the Team Challenge. If you are in a team, this is how it's gonna work:

1. Make just one prediction per match subject to the rules above - it counts for the Oracle Challenge and the Oracle Team Challenge!
2. Your team score for the day is equal to both team members' scores added together.
3. If one player misses a prediction, the team will get either (partner's score * 2) or (partner's score + average score for the day), whichever is lower. This is to keep teams from being eliminated by one missed prediction, and this ONLY applies to the team scores.

You get feathers over time from participating in events like the recent Voting Gauntlet and by completing quests. You also get Feathers from Arena and Arena Assault.

You can also grind for Hero Merit on 0 stamina maps. It's a slow process but it is something you can do if you need Feathers now.

While you largely can't buy Feathers directly, you can buy Orbs, summon Heroes then send the Heroes home for Feathers. I can't really suggest you actually do this.

It wasn't me who suspended him. Although, it did cross my mind that suspending the account with that topic really would be the most effective way to get SBAllen to see it. >_>

It'd be interesting to see Mass Effect smashing Ultima just to expose the claim of people not playing new games is BS (though it'd be kinda sad).

Are we sure Mass Effect wins that one? >_>

I uh, cant tell to what degree youre joking. But Id presume Ultima would be very weak on this site.

It was before the time of most here, and from an era where the people that come to this site were all about consoles.

Yeah, I was joking about it losing to Ultima. I don't think Mass Effect has fallen that far.

I have a saved copy of it but I don't have it uploaded anywhere. Is there something in the topic you needed? The "Top 5 Predictions Leaderboard" was only updated up to Nov 2 in the first topic.

Bandwagon Zelda vs Villainous Mario. That will be a fun board vote to watch.
