DC Specials Contest: Round One Summary

[dilbertschalter]

After perhaps two months of faceoffs, we have completed the first round of the DC Specials contest. Some tidbits I thought interesting, as well as the list of winners, are below:

-It was good to be old: 11/16 times, the older episode won.
-It was not good to be an AO. 4/5 of the AOs in the contest lost (Cursed Mask advanced). Not exactly a surprise, I know.
-Kaito Kid did fairly well- of the four specials that featured Kid, three advanced and the one that did not was knocked out by another Kid episode.
-Heiji did not do very well; by my count episodes where he had at least a somewhat important role went 4-5.
-Takagi and Sato did not do very well- both of the recent Metropolitan Police specials were eliminated and 304 what is probably the most popular episode of all, 345.
-Two hour specials were all that and a bag of chips. They went only 5-5 overall.
-As expected, the BO annihilated the competition. Every BO case won easily, with the exception of 345, which faced an extremely tough matchup and won anyway
