Even if no one else participates in the challenge, there is still at least ME who needs a topic to put my predictions in!
Feel free to post your predictions here and I will eventually score and rank them all as usual.
I assume we PPC enthusiasts already know all the procedures, right? The objective here is to predict the percentage of valid bracket-makers that correctly predicted the winner of a match in the Bracket Challenge (not Battle Challenge) for every match in the GameFAQs Rivalry Rumble Contest. The most important rule is that the prediction must be made before the END of the match in question. You can have one prediction each for both entrants in a match if you're not sure who will win the match. Scoring is 50-x, where x is the difference between your prediction and the actual prediction percentage.
Oh, and I guess I can give out a surprise prize if you can beat my total score by the end of the contest.
So yeah, let's just get to it ! Here's all the Round 1 matches to predict:

Time for some more safety picks, might change these (probably not though). I'm assuming it's allowed to put percentages for both characters, based on the first post - only doing it for possible close matches.
Mega Man X vs. Zero 80.15%
Guybrush Threepwood vs. LeChuck 39.78% OR Bartz Klauser vs. Gilgamesh 60.22%
Donkey Kong vs. King K. Rool 58.91% OR Ezio Auditore da Firenze vs. Rodrigo Borgia 41.09%
Sub-Zero vs. Scorpion 68.93%
Pokemon Trainer Red vs. Pokemon Trainer Blue 80.26%
So I have to enter TWO predictions on a debatable match? You don't just accept Sub-Zero with 56% and then if Leon wins and it's 44% I wouldn't get a perfect score?
Mega Man X vs. Zero - 95.45%
Guybrush Threepwood vs. LeChuck - 52.65% or Bartz Klauser vs. Gilgamesh - 48.54%
Donkey Kong vs. King K. Rool - 63.65% or Ezio Auditore da Firenze vs. Rodrigo Borgia - 36.35%
Sub-Zero vs. Scorpion - 57.54% or Leon Kennedy vs. Ada Wong - 42.46

Yes, you can predict either one and I'll assume the other entrant to be 100-x in Round 1. But remember, it's for Round 1 only. Round 2 onwards and you will have to predict for both entrants, because 100-x can't apply anymore, so it's good practice if you start doing it now!
Well, I guess I'll be kind and tell you it's because they're listed as "X/Zero" in the bracket. No mention of "Mega Man" there! (unless you hover your mouse or something but who did that anyway)
