We follow up the amazing third place match with... this. It was okay for a little while when a combination of bracket voting and Link anti-voting led to Mario winning early, but it didn't last. The silver lining though was Mario finally breaking 40% on Link, which was nice to see. So even though Link won the war, Mario finally won a battle against him.

The silver lining though was Mario finally breaking 40% on Link, which was nice to see. So even though Link won the war, Mario finally won a battle against him. The reason this was important is because Allen put an Oracle Challenge into place for the final, since something like 50 battle brackets were perfect and the tie needed to be broken. There were all these parameters that I don't really feel like going over, but the basic idea is that you could pick a percentage range. The smaller the range you pick, the higher the score payout and you could go Final Jeopardy style and bet all or none of your points. This led to some people being absolutely terrible and losing all their points (with some legendary whining to boot), and other people pulling off amazing actuaries and picking Link with 57-58% of the vote. It was nice to see, and helped ease us through a boring final and ultimately conclude the worst contest we've ever had.
