Note: If you posted your bracket in the Part One thread, and haven't made any changes, no need to post it here as well.
---

Welcome to the Guru Contest for this huge, intense 2018 CBX bracket! If you've never played before the Guru is a competition open to everyone on B8, just post your bracket in this topic and we'll get it uploaded to the website which will track everyone's progress automatically from now through Christmas when a winner is raised to everlasting fortune and fame. Before you enter though just keep in mind the two parts of the Guru Contract:

1. You must congratulate the winner in your board signature and keep that up for two weeks.
2. You will owe one of your nominations for the next Contest to the winner, who gets to pick any entrant of their choice for us all to support.

If that sounds good then it's bracket posting time! There's a prefered method for posting your bracket this year. Post a link to your bracket directly using the source code, saving yourself some typing. Follow along with these steps:

1. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/features/cbx_mybracket In Chrome you can right click and select “View Page Source”
2. Do a search for <h1 class="page-title">Character Battle X - My Bracket</h1> (should be around line 181), highlight from there to the end of the bracket aka </tr> </table> </div> (around line 1304) and Copy
3. Go to https://jsfiddle.net/ and Paste into the box titled HTML
4. On the top black bar click Run, then click Save. Your url bar will update with a new, unique link.
6. Paste that link in here.

Post your winner alongside your bracket link to make it easier to see as we enter these!

Okay that should cover it, good luck everyone!
---

Clarification - the Guru should be identical to your "official" prize-winning (if you're eligible) bracket, not what you "meant to put."

PS - Would you like to help me and Guru co-host Ange with bringing the site up to date? We could use assistance with getting brackets entered on to the website; if that sounds like something you're interested in let us know and we'll assign you a page you can work on!

I don't pull rank often, but this contest's main page absolutely has to be called "Character Battle X". I doubt you'd disagree with me on that one anyways. Thanks man. I'll add some stuff this weekend, or we can just let @ZenOfThunder the MVP handle it.

I’m pretty sure that the double elimination bracket existing means people will live longer than you’d think, since there are so many possibilities where a lot of people get no points.

Once brackets have been entered and are available for data crunching, we’ll be able to get a better picture of what to expect.

We'll have to wait for all of the brackets to be entered onto the Guru site before anyone can figure out possible eliminations. Even then, it might be difficult to calculate future eliminations due to the Loser Bracket (so many possible match combinations there).

I did it from android. Pain in the ass though.

You can view source code of a webpage by typing view-source: (or something like that) before the web address.

Then I had the problem of highlighting all the code I wanted to copy, then realised there was a limit I could copy to clipboard so I had to do 200 lines or so at a time.

So yeah, pain in the ass but doable

It's very unlikely. For anyone to be eliminated they'd need near identical brackets to someone else for it to happen, and with 150 matches and a lot of 8 pt matches in the double elimination rounds, it's probably less likely than previous years.

If Monika does lose your bracket is technically screwed but you are unlikely to be mathematically eliminated since Master Hand making a run would save your bracket.

They probably aren't dead yet, but likely need someone that nobody is picking to win the contest, preferably as close to Division 2 as possible.

A surprise Wario or Master Hand rally would negate as many points lost as possible.

If you can't get the jsfiddle to work for any reason you can post your bracket in plain text or with screenshots. I just wanted the vast majority of them in the easier format.



So when do me and others have to input stuff

I regret nothing.

I never understood the hype behind a subreddit with <2K active users on any given day. I respect the play though. I always wuss out and stick too close to cookie and I always regret it in the end. Monika brackets will at least be able to say that they died with dignity.

Wasn’t relying on a subreddit. Go look how small Undertale’s is. I was hoping for a retweet. Which I guess could still happen, but I’m not worried about it. It was damn fun going out in style ??

Still plenty of potential rallies possible, and if it doesn’t happen oh well. Still had a blast!

Annnd I instantly regret that search. TIL there is an Undertail Rule 34 subreddit, and I'm not so sure that "small" is the first adjective that comes to mind. Lesson learned, I'll just take your word for it next time!

Okay, Guru site is live for 2018.

http://thengamer.com/guru/

The stats on who picks who for each match are here

http://thengamer.com/guru/stats.php

(not much for now but will get interesting as more brackets go up)

I THINK our cookie cutter bracket for this season is going to be this

http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=2

But quite a few results were within 3% on the BOP so they might easily flip once all the Guru picks are online.

If you see mistakes with your bracket once it's uploaded, post the details so it can be fixed.

If you wish the brackets would be uploaded more quickly talk to Ange, he's in charge of entry and can assign you a page so you can help out!

It's the most popular pick for that match out of all Guru brackets combined. Which, since we haven't officially tallied them yet, means 5-6-7 of those could change by the end of the week.

You get assigned a page on a topic

I give you a link to a form to fill in bracket. It should be straightforward:

-Add the person's tiebreaker in the form on the top of the first page
-Fill out which character wins each match by round
-When you're done and ready to go to the next round just click the button at the bottom of the form
-Keep going till you finish the Final Match, there should be a "NEXT" link to take you back to a blank Round 1 page to do the next person's bracket

hey @Ngamer64

i just pmed angelo but may as well tell you here too since you just posted

so i started inputting Linkhatesganon, the first one on that page

he has
Link > Ganon in battle 121
pika > mega man in 122
cloud > big boss in 123
Bowser > crono in 124

but then when i input these and hit next, for losers it gives me:
Ganon vs Pika in 129
big Boss vs Bowser in 130

the others look right.

but not sure what to do here

I should note that the went with the Legend pick in the other 4 matches i didnt list there, and those brackets didn't throw an issue. It looks like the losers bracket threw me all the characters against the N9er no matter what

Yeah things get broken in Losers when wacky picks are entered unfortunately, just fake your way through as best you can and make note of everytime you're forced to input a bad choice. I would keep a text pad going and say

Haste
132 Mario
140 Sephiroth

Carvey
136 Solid Snake
140 Mewtwo

And so forth, then paste that to Ange when you're all done with your brackets.

EDIT: it actually looks like an entry error, I still had the link copied on my laptop and it says I picked Knuckles. If it's too much of a hassle to change I get it, but I'd appreciate it, cause I think I'll be in first after today's match.

I noted this but basically expect a lot of Losers Bracket to be wrong because it's a new addition and I expect to have those fixed by the weekend.

I'm going to guess Ngamer is going to (hopefully) make a new topic where people can double check their bracket to requset any mistakes once all the brackets are all up

So you if your bracket lands on one of those pages you should see it entered tomorrow, sorry for the delay :)


@SpikeDragon I think for now just do Page 2 and we'll see if we need to Page 4 still

Hi guys,

My bracket has been added with loads of mistakes. This could well be my fault and I've done something wrong with the source code. Don't want to take up anyone's time changing at this late stage, but if anyone can, happy to send screenshots of my bracket as proof and will list the ones needing changed!


I noted this but basically expect a lot of Losers Bracket to be wrong because it's a new addition and I expect to have those fixed by the weekend.

I'm going to guess Ngamer is going to (hopefully) make a new topic where people can double check their bracket to requset any mistakes once all the brackets are all up


No problem, cheers for the reply

NGamer please remove the duplicate foolmo bracket (the second one)

Those two foolmo brackets aren't actually exact duplicates, for whatever reason. The first one has Aerith winning Round 1 and Snake winning Losers Round 4, whereas the second has Waluigi and Sephiroth respectively.

Highly doubt Ngamer would do that since Guru is all about the classical style of predicting.

There was never a Guru for the Streak Contest when it used to exist officially for example

Doign the Legends/Losers only would feel much easier after we've gotten so much info from Division 1-8 contest

It'd be kinda cheap for someone to get equal credit for an extra Guru pick for 16 characters as opposed to 128 characters unless it was just for fun and the Second Chance Guru just gets to be happy but get no extra nomination

Should we be correcting mistakes now, or waiting until everything's been input? I know mine has a couple errors in the losers'.

Mine has errors in the Losers Bracket as well, starting with Round 4. It says I have Snake winning in L4 when my bracket has Mario > Sephiroth for that match. Then it should be Mario > Cloud in R5 (not Snake), and Snake > Mario in the LF.

Just noticed that with the brackets that have been currently input, it is impossible to have a bracket with zero "risks". Riku holds a narrow 62-61 lead over Bayonetta in their round 1 match, but Bayonetta has 46 gurus taking her to win in round 2 to Riku's 43 (Sans has 30).

I hope this holds up when all brackets are input (It was actually 62-60 when I first started writing this but another bracket was input). I've been waiting for a time where a match is so close that someone who's the underdog in one round actually gets the plurality in the next round because a greater percentage of the brackets that did take them that round had them advancing again.

Great work, Ange and team!

Okay, we'll give JC until the afternoon to post before we lock things down and move to the new topic.

With all (but one) of the entrants now recorded I can announce that we have five changes to the cookie cutter bracket!

Alucard - 84 (52.50%)
Yuna - 68 (42.50%)
Princess Peach - 7 (4.38%)

BOP had Final Fantasy faith but the Gurus know better (or DO they?), making Alucard the official 2nd round favorite.

Ness - 71 (44.38%)
2B - 70 (43.75%)
Shadow the Hedgehog - 18 (11.25%)

Tight as could be but ultimately the Gurus are siding with the Smash Superkid over the Sexy Simulant in their Second Series Showdown.

Mario - 78 (48.75%)
Solid Snake - 67 (41.88%)

It's close but the Gurus are flipping the script and taking Mario over Snake heads up in their destined dual in the Legends Bracket.

Solid Snake - 63 (39.38%)
Mario - 56 (35.00%)

...as a result, more people have Snake appearing in the Loser's R4 match, where he's expected to win. Basically the BOP thought Snake > Mario > Samus, while the Gurus are going Mario > Snake > Samus.

Cloud Strife - 56 (35.00%)
Solid Snake - 38 (23.75%)
Mario - 30 (18.75%)

And we're also giving Cloud more respect. This is for Loser's Round Five and it's a bit tricky to explain. Basically we think Cloud clobbers Mega Man or Crono and also edges the weakest two people out of the Mario/Snake/Samus triforce. HOWEVER almost everyone agrees Cloud will lose cleanly to whichever of those three is strongest and thus meets him in Loser's Finals.

In other words, we think this year it's either

Link > Mario > Cloud > Snake > Samus
or
Link > Snake > Cloud > Mario > Samus

And the Losers bracket is all goofy too, but I will wait for that one. Thanks, guys!

so no one has the exact same set of division winners as me?

awesome I like my chances better that way


Same here... doesn't look like anyone has even 7 of 8 agreeing with me unless another unique one does. Granted, most of that is because apparently my Big Boss pick was even stupider than I thought...

So, thoughts on the cookie:

Damnit we were so close! Bayonetta-Riku remained the R1 match with the least consensus, ironically followed in 2nd place with the match that determines the winner's second-round opponent, Sans vs. Pac-Man. That's the absolute perfect setup for an "impossible cookie", but in the end, Bayonetta's 81-78 majority over Riku did translate to a 59-55 plurality over him to reach Round 3 (Sans with 35 picks, Pac-Man with 10).

On the "bright side", and I say that because people often assume that plurality = favorite, we managed to avoid a "false favorite" in Round 2 with Ness narrowly edging out 2B, 71-70, all 18 remaining brackets belonging to Ness's R1 opponent. For a good example of why plurality =/= favorite, let's look at the first semifinal of the 2015 Games Contest.

Top picks:
1. Final Fantasy VII, 34.52%
2. Pokémon RBYG, 31.98%
3. Super Mario 64, 17.77%
4. Super Smash Bros. Melee, 5.08%
5. Chrono Trigger, 2.54%
6. Super Mario World, 2.03%
7. Final Fantasy VI, 1.52%
8. Final Fantasy X, 1.02%
8. Super Mario Bros. 3, 1.02%
8. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, 1.02%

Honestly, I didn't have to go all the way to the top 10 to make this point. I really only had to go as far as #6, because that's the point at which the set of all entrants that would've come out of the second quarterfinal surpassed 50%. Final Fantasy VII had the plurality at 34.52%, but Pokémon RBYG and SM64, who would've met a round earlier if Undertale hadn't gotten in the way, combined for roughly 49.75% of brackets just between the two of them. All totaled, it actually was fairly close; "Winner of second quarterfinal" had 53.81% of brackets and "Winner of first quarterfinal" had 46.19%. But the "favorite" was declared to be FFVII because it had far more consensus on making it that far (73.10%, to RBYG's 46.19% and SM64's 34.52%). Put another way, both RBYG and SM64 had over half of the brackets that picked them to reach the semifinals pick them to reach the finals. FFVII did not.

Waluigi > Aerith
Shepherd K. Rool

Round 2 -

Waluigi > Toad
Auron > Vincent
Mewtwo > Tifa
Aqua > KOS-MOS

Round 3 -

Your bracket is in!

I just need to ask Ngamer to make it so I can actually have Waluigi win match 139 and 144 so those matches will be incorrect for now, it should be in
