Aw man I was top 10 earlier today and now I'm on the chopping block

I know the feeling. I was guru leader and overall site leader not too long ago and I'm dead now (assuming Ganondorf holds on).

@Ngamer64

Was looking through your bracket after hearing you mention on your show how you picked Nintendo in every close match up

Anyway I noticed you have Mewtwo randomly winning a match in the losers bracket despite having him lose to Tifa in round 2

Yeaaaaaaah I entered that so I'd be able to change someone else's bracket with the tool, meant to switch it back right after and guess I forgot. I've fixed it now.

Shadow: please note that my 132 winner is actually the standard choice (Sephiroth).

Please read NewerShadow's post on Message #236. You may have issues in your bracket that are incorrect

Please reply with the Match Number and which character should be the correct winner so I can properly correct them.

Sorry, I have Crono > Cloud in 134 and and Cloud > Big Boss in 138.

I can post a screenshot if that's easier?

I'm not totally clear on who to credit for knocking me out, but I've got to give my respect to jcgamer for his Alucard pick. Alucard's win over Red is the match that will officially kill my bracket.

Now, who will decide my sig for the next two years?

You guys are too dramatic, Alucard winning barely kills any brackets.

If everyone sucks equally then the guru winner is also someone who sucks.

Also, Ytterbicide's correction means that he's still alive, for now.

Hi, I was seeing the guru picks. I'm preety sure i wont die even if Zelda wins.

For my calculations my biggest threat is Spike Dragon, but if i win the matches i have different from him from now on, i will end with more points than him.

Can you tell me who will kill me please?

Thanks.
