Update: 15:30 Here is our daily dose of stats goodness thanks to Locke4God.
STATISTICAL UDATE:
It's funny that as the tournament moves on, and the matches become more and more important, that those at the top, seem to be more and more in agreement.
100% of the top 10 brackets in both current and MAX Points picked todays match correctly, just as they did yesterday and the day before. 88% of the top 32 Brackets in current points were correct today, and 87% of the top 30 in MAX Points picked correctly. Not one of the 4 in that top group who missed had their miss moving on to the Semi Final, and all 4 misses had picked Cabin Fever, as opposed to it's previous 2nd Round opponent..
BREAKDOWN:
Current Point Leaders, of those with,,,
73 Points - All 4 current leaders picked correctly. Somebody is going to have to miss! 72 Points - All 6 waiting for a share of the lead picked correctly 71 Points - Just 3 of this group picked correctly, meaning 2 lost. Only 60% 70 Points - And 15 of the 17 Brackets still 3 off the lead, hang in there for their shot at the top. That's 88%.
MAX Point Leaders fared similarly, of those with,,,
189 Points - All 4 leaders picked correctly. These are the same 4 that share the current lead. 188 Points - All 6 were correct 187 Points - 3 of 5 were correct. The same 60% as shown above, but 186 Points - Only 13 Brackets, not 15, share a tie at -3 off the lead in MAX Points. That means 2 in the current standings are guaranteed another loss before the end. Still only 2 brackets lost in this category and that's good for 87%.
OUTLOOK:
Overall another easy day for most of us, but that means if you're back in the back that you're not making progress. As it looks for now, you've got 2 great chances to move up. That's the potential semi-final match between "The Incident" and "The Constant", and then of course between the winner of that match and most likely, ",,, Looking Glass" in the final.. Those are your two matches where you will move up the most.
But there are some other matches where we could see upsets. Will ",,, Looking Glass" actually get past the semi final? It would be an upset, but it could certainly happen, and don't forget about the possible quarterfinal match between "Pilot" and "The Incident". That could turn up as a suprise as well and really upset the standings.
Good luck to you all moving forward.
Congratulations to Through the Looking Glass for taking the 3rd Qtr-Final place.
