Note: Brackets lock in about 5 days, time to start finalizing your choices- please don't post until you're pretty confident you won't be switching any winners. (And post your tiebreaker.)
--- I'd imagine everyone knows the drill by now, but just in case we have any newcomers- it's the Guru Challenge! Whoever makes the best bracket on Board 8 gets praised in everyone's signature for two weeks after the conclusion of the Contest and also gets to pick one entrant for the next bracket that everyone else will support (for instance, any fictional character of your choosing for 2018). Pretty cool, right? By posting your bracket in this topic you're agreeing not only to compete this season but also to honor the two points from above if someone else outpicks you. It also means you'll get to track your progress against everyone else during the season on the Guru website. Here's the final standings from 2015, to give you an idea what that looks like. http://thengamer.com/guru/ There's full breakdowns not only on every individual bracket but also every match. For instance here were our picks for what game was going to do battle with Ocarina for the title of Best Game Ever two years ago. http://thengamer.com/guru/stats.php?match=125 --- Bracket entry is pretty simple this time around since it's just years. I recommend making a copy of the below section and editing in your own picks, with a space between the wildcards and then each of the five rounds. Copy and Paste This Tiebreaker: 1979 2009 1983 1989 1981 2006 1978 2005 1995 1986 1985 1987 2001 2014 2008 2009/1979 1997 1999 2007 2012 2000 1990 1996 1989/1983 1991 1988 2002 2010 1994 2004 2011 2006/1981 1998 1993 1992 2016 2013 2003 2015 2005/1978 --- So here's how a completed bracket would look. EXAMPLE BRACKET Tiebreaker: 1,431,824 1979 1983 2006 2005 1995 1987 2001 2008 1997 2012 1990 1996 1988 2010 2004 2011 1998 2016 2003 2015 1987 2001 1997 1996 2010 2004 1998 2015 2001 1996 2004 2015 1996 2004 2004 --- Easy enough, right? Just remember to post your tiebreaker number, there's going to be lots of ties with such a small bracket so it'll be more important this season than ever! --- 2015 Champ Dp has one free invite to join yo and I on The Show this year! board8.wikia.com | thengamer.com/xstats ...
