Crazy Dave! No! (Sorry for the loss, Bosco.)

It's a bummer, but I'm just happy he made it to R2! He survived a pretty crazy pool in R1, which was a nice moral victory.

Plus, these results as a whole are pretty sweet. Michael Bluth FTW!

Ascension Pool:
113 Han Solo (Star Wars)
84 Donkey Kong (Donkey Kong)
80 Cookie Monster (Sesame Street)
78 Mr. Spock (Star Trek)
72 Thor (Marvel Comics)

71 Legolas (The Lord of the Rings)

86 Professor Oak (Pokemon)
83 Inspector Gadget (Inspector Gadget)
72 Shredder (TMNT)
70 Neo (Matrix)

69 Ezio Auditore da Firenze (Assassin's Creed II)
60 Wizardmon (Digimon)
60 Godzilla (Godzilla)
58 Mary Poppins (Mary Poppins)
43 Doctor Strange (Marvel Comics)

Biggest Surprises:
Even if it is just because of his recent movie, I like seeing Thor beat Legolas. Approve of that result. Profeesor Oak continues to stomp as well.

Biggest Letdowns:
Apparently Doctor Strange needs a movie too. Jack Bauer runs out of time. Wizardmon fights hard but comes up short. And, losing Legolas is always a bad letdown.

59 Scrooge McDuck (Disney)
59 Samus Aran (Metroid)
56 Jasmine (Aladdin)
49 Baloo (Jungle Book)

47 Eric Cartman (South Park)

60 Boba Fett (Star Wars)
59 Tom (Tom & Jerry)
52 J.D. Dorian (Scrubs)

48 Kermit the Frog (The Muppet Show)
47 Judge Claude Frollo (Hunchback of Notre Dame)
42 Ebenezer Scrooge (A Christmas Carol)
41 GIR (Invader Zim)
23 Desmond David Hume (Lost)

Biggest Surprises:
Kirby is a powerhouse, confirmed. Baloo makes a narrow escape. Gary continues Pokemon’s strong showing in this contest.

Biggest Letdowns:
Kermit couldn’t quite make it. It’s always sad to lose Frollo. Desmond got more +1 votes than anyone else ever, it was laughable. Biggest letdown is losing Cartman though. South Park is almost knocked from the tourney with that loss. The show has one last hope…

68 Azula (Avatar: The Last Airbender)
67 Carl Friedricksen (Up)
58 Shrek (Shrek)
57 Tony Montana (Scarface)
55 Arthur (Arthur (PBS Cartoon))

Biggest Surprises:
I have to say, seeing both the Black Knight and Aslan doing this well is very impressive to me. Alice is doing better than expected too. Biggest surprise is Edward Elric though. What an amazing run.

Biggest Letdowns:
Azula comes up short and becomes the first Avatar character to be eliminated. GOB Bluth leaves Michael to the rest of the contest. Jack Skellington can’t get a big enough rally. Biggest letdown for me though was losing Tyler Durden.

I crop Ganon, Link, Cloud, and Sephy together. They get too much love from the board as whole that leads to their anti votes in a smaller contest like this. I don't expect Cloud or Link to make the next round. Honestly, I'd probably put them in the surprise category if they did.

On a side note, the only video game characters I expect long runs from are Kirby, Miles, Phoenix, and Snake. Possibly one of the Mario bros.

Pools 9&10 Results:

Panite Pool:

117 Indiana Jones (Indiana Jones)
98 Jack Torrence (The Shining)
90 Carmen Sandiego (Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?)
88 Belle (Beauty and the Beast)

87 The Grinch (How the Grinch Stole Christmas)
79 Pharaoh Yugi-oh (Yugi-oh)
78 Leon Kennedy (Resident Evil 2/4)
63 William 'Billy' Costigan (Departed)
60 Asuka Langely Soryu (Neon Genesis Evangelion)

Serendibite Pool:

111 Andy Dufresne (Shawshank Redemption)
105 Captain Malcolm 'Mal' Reynolds (Firefly)
103 Albert Wesker (Resident Evil)
102 Mega Man (Mega Man)

78 Tommy Pickles (Rugrats)
76 Yogi Bear (Yogi Bear)
74 Porky Minch (Mother Series)
58 Hank Moody (Californication)
52 Tracy Jordan (30 Rock)

Biggest Surprises:
The Serendibite Pool was made out of reach for the bottom five really early. It was clear who was favored from the very start. The Panite Pool however, was a blood clash between Carmen and Belle. They constantly switched back and forth the whole match for the fifth position, but the final vote of the match shot them both ahead of Grinch (who led the pool at one point) and to the next round. Biggest surprise, though it shouldn’t be, is Mal Reynolds’ amazing run. Maybe even bigger is that points Fry racked up after most of Futurama performed dismally.

Biggest Letdowns:
The Grinch slowly fell from the top of the leader board to out of the round. Pharaoh Yugi got a lot of low votes late too. I like 30 Rock but Tracy Jordan (the actor and the person in general) has never stood in a positive light for me. Still, it’s a letdown to see him flop like that.

98 Oscar the Grouch (Sesame Street)
86 Pumba (The Lion King)
86 Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)
85 Maximus Meridius (Gladiator)
63 Dorothy Gale (The Wizard of Oz)

Biggest Surprises:
Magneto drops the big ole 134 on everyone. Piccolo impresses all. And there’s a first tiebreaker of the second round! How the heck is Farfetch’d killin it?!? Good for him! Pokemon might be a serious threat to go far in this thing. Biggest surprise to me is Rock barely beating out Oscar. Whew, what a close one.

Biggest Letdowns:
Losing Oscar sucked. Maximus caught up towards the end but fell short. And wtf Popeye is gone?!

Tiebreaker will be held tomorrow when the new round goes up!

94 Ocelot (Metal Gear Solid)
91 Launchpad McQuack (Ducktales)
81 Frasier (Frasier)
80 Edward Scissorhands (Edward Scissorhands)
70 Commander Shepard (Mass Effect 2)

Biggest Surprises:
Glad to see Atticus still doin well in the face of tougher competition. Squall barely squeezes by Ocelot on the whim of a last vote. Biggest surprise to me is Hermione. She’s a great wizard and all, but by this point she’s kicking Harry’s ass in support. Must be the Emma Watson factor.

Biggest Letdowns:
Norman Osborne wasn’t expected to make it past this round, but he put up a good enough fight for me. He’s come a long way from his early Green Goblin days. The Bride and Edward Scissorhands did worse than I thought they might. Biggest letdown is losing Barney Stinson though. Hands down.

The first Sonic character is eliminated. Bison gets trumped. Jules Winnfield is gone. I got to say, I do not approve of these results. Doom does not approve either.

Biggest Surprises:
Vincent Valentine made a late charge and secured a position. Iroh demonstrates the power of Airbender in this competition. Buzz squeezes in on a last vote.

Biggest Letdowns:
Mugen tried his hardest. Articuno becomes one of the few Pokemon not to advance. Travis gets all kinds of hate. Manny Calavera did so well last round and got wiped out this round (same goes for Veronica). Palpatine is the biggest letdown overall though.

Bilbo of all hobbits is still garnering a lot of support. Auron holds steady to find Tidus in the next round. Zuko still shows how strong Airbender is, while Ness almost blows it to Tommy save two last votes.

Biggest Letdowns:
T-1000 loses to Wasowski after a hard fought battle for 5th. One of them had to go. Uncle Ruckus gets a lot of support early and none late. I really didn’t expect to lose EVE. Biggest letdown was Jed Bartlett. He should have at least been competitive based on last round.

We lost Ruckus AND Alan? :( Shoot. Nice to see Charlie Brown and Costanza at the top of their pool, though!

Man, this always happens with these guys. Lucas was beating Cloud for first in a similar contest and then he lost a bunch of points near the end and got fifth.

Touch my heart. See how it beats in and out? Lucas! There's noooothing to worry about now.

Can't complain too much about President Bartlet and Tommy. That's a tough pool.

80 Locke Cole (Final Fantasy VI)
68 Sub-Zero (Mortal Kombat)
67 Ursula (Little Mermaid)

Biggest Surprises:
In each pool, five characters did really good and five did very average. I don’t know if there were any huge surprises. Bart, Zapp, and Bender all showed up to play in this round. John McClane got some support which was relieving for a 90’s movie star. Sherlock Holmes bashed his competition.

Biggest Letdowns:
Hate to lose Al Bundy this early. McLovin did better than expected but still couldn’t rise above average. Locke Cole and Ursula surprised me with the amount of hate they got. Arnold gets his football head punted through the uprights. Rapunzel was the biggest letdown. She seemed to be a powerhouse last round and faded very quickly this round.

64 Toothless (How to Train Your Dragon)
64 Red Foreman (70’s show)
55 Dr. Jekyll / Mr. Hyde (Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde)

Biggest Surprises:
Beast came back from the graves, literally. He secured third place late. Eeyore did the same but in a less dramatic fashion. The Prince of Saiyans snapped through and earns the glory of being the only Saiyan left. Biggest overall surprise was Rorschach beating Tigger and Herc by a hair.

Biggest Letdowns:
Cloud and Vivi become Final Fantasy’s latest casualties. Big Bird gets drowned in +3’s and +4’s. Hercules falls. Tigger barely misses to the cut. Biggest upset has to be losing Harry Potter. Fortunately for him though, his series is still well represented.
