I want to see if anyone smarter than me also did this, or if Id probably win by default if this occurs.

But.... wouldn't all the first matches in the final bracket be noble 8 vs non noble 8?

I took Red > Cloud. Hoping PokeFEAR/rallies make it happen. If he can lose to Squirtle he can lose to Red imo

Okay well I'd assume in the losers bracket especially most people have at least 1 match of a regular upsetting a noble 8

I used to have Cloud losing to a rally in the first round, but then I remembered the six day break before the match and figured rallying through that against the GameFAQs number 2 would be difficult.

Its not a make the cut thing.

All the Noble 9 are interconnected..

You cant take one out, because Seph murdered Mario (and lots of others) and therefore if you take him out then Mario has lost to a non NN member in a 1 on 1 24 hour match.

I have the Noble Nine going undefeated with the main and losers brackets alike.

When I was initially planning my bracket, I had Geralt making a deep run and upsetting Sonic before bowing out to Snake. But I also liked the possibility of a D.Va run too, so I hedged my bets on both to make it far, but not too far.

So I have Geralt losing to Auron, D.Va winning her division and losing to Snake, and the Noble Nine being undefeated.

Amazing how the NN definition keeps getting changed out of desperation to keep it going.

First it meant the were never beaten by outside competition.

Then 2007 happened. Suddenly it meant they were never beaten by outside competition in the one-on-one format so the streak continues!

Then 2010 happened. Suddenly it meant they were never beaten by outside competition in the one-on-one format in a 24-hour poll so the streak continues!

Seeing as this contest appears to be doing multiple 24-hour matches in a parallel, I wouldn't be surprised if we see TC's definition change to never being beaten by outside competition in the one-on-one format in a 24-hour poll when it's the only match that day so the streak continues!

Or TC could just recognize that the NN streak is actually broken and it's just a legacy term to refer to a bunch of characters who were really strong in the early years of the contest but some of them have weakened since then.

Hey, if Wesker > Sephiroth this really is the best contest ever, even if the rest of the NN stomps.

I think the NN are more likely than not to win in any given match, but entropically its unlikely that theyll sweep (theres only one way for the NN to win all matches against non-NN, but several unlikely but realistic scenarios in which one or more lose).
