After an entire day of overtime Castlevania finally overcomes Always Sunny after basically another tie for the entirety of the second day. It was a terrible night to have a curse for Always Sunny as Castlevania was finally able to pull away after a few stray votes placed after midnight.

Of course, this overtime was basically just to sort out who is going to get fed to the behemoth that is Forrest Gump in Round 2, but at least I can feel proud that I made a bracket where some of the matches end up pretty close, unlike these other three.

Forrest Gump tore Life is Strange to pieces like a hurricane hitting Arcadia Bay. Going in I knew Forrest Gump was underseeded and that Life is Strange would be a very weak entrant (I liken its three seed to Serious Sam's three seed in 2002) but seeing the Gumpheads turn out in force to overtake @Shonen_Bat's single LiS vote with 25 of their own was hella heartbreaking.

Day 5 would have been our most uneventful day yet if it weren't for the tiebreaker. We had MGS and South Park (expectantly) put Friends and DBZ out to pasture. The only thing worth talking about is the even amount of support both winners got and what the next match will look like.

I will say that DBZ is definitely a way stronger competitor than Friends and to see South Park win over DBZ by a larger margin than MGS over Friends is definitely worrisome for all you Snake fans out there.

It's been brought up a few times now, but how quotable are video games compared to TV and movies? Seems like people are more reluctant to shout "METAL GEAR?!" in public, regardless of how appropriate a situation might be. We'll see how the rest of our video game entrants hold up in the coming rounds.

Oh yeah, here's my other two shitposts:
