If you are still interested, please try one more time using the instructions in post 184. It should work this time.

@raytan7585
I still need your overall bracket winner.

Other than these two issues and the one with Zylothewolf above, everything else seems good.

That seems like questionable justification against RDR2 of all games.

I like Tales games a lot. They just don't do very well in contests. >_>

I used to keep track of sale figures of Tales games. Back in 2012 they looked like this:

North American Tales Sales Figures

As of June 26, 2012:

Tales of Symphonia - 470,253
Tales of Vesperia - 144,354
Tales of Vesperia LE - 6944
Tales of Symphonia 2 - 136,695
Tales of Phantasia - 88,235
Tales of Legendia - 83,343
Tales of the Abyss - 72,192
Tales of Destiny - 68,647
Tales of Graces f - 63,000
Tales of Destiny 2 (Eternia) - 57,896
Tales of the Abyss 3D - 45,101
Tales of the World - 39,809

As well liked as ToV was, it didn't do that much better than ToS2. I wonder what they look like today after the various rereleases.

If your Guru bracket score doesn't match the score on the official leaderboard, you need to submit corrections so that your guru bracket matches your official bracket.

I also only just found out that it was PC only during its GotY poll where it looked awful. I didn't give the match that much thought since it was a 1 point match so I might have still took ToB. Even so, it still would have been nice to know.

yeah this is going to be Link vs. Mario in the finals

and Link will win

Top 4 is a 4 way match. Mario might have some trouble holding on to second place. I'm not even sure there is a 1v1 final after that. The winner of the 4-way match might just become the overall winner instead of the top 2 advance thing they've been doing.

I made a parser for the bracket html entry: http://dfgh.xyz/gotd/

So you don't need to use pastebin.

BOP statistics are computed automatically, but they do not include the pastebin submissions.

If you make changes to your bracket, just resubmit it & the aggregation script will automatically pull the latest submission from each user (no double-counting)

I wish you were here 3 weeks ago. When I checked it didn't seem like you had logging in in a while. Since there's not much time left until bracket lock down, I'm fine with just manually collecting the last few brackets. There haven't really been many submissions in the last few days anyways.

Speaking of... fucken EDC hasn't been cancelled or delayed yet. I assume the city of Las Vegas will force the event organizers to shut it down, but if it went on as planned, we're talking about 180k nearly naked people sweating and breathing all over each other. It would make that Florida beach during spring break look like social isolation done right.

The organizers are likely waiting to be forced to cancel. My understanding with a lot of these big events is due to how the contracts are done there can be a significant financial penalty for an event to cancel itself but the penalty goes away if the event is forced to cancel.
