Guybrush Threepwood's Contest History

Who is Guybrush Threepwood?
If the name Guybrush Threepwood doesn't describe the random, off-the-wall nature of Guybrush and his games well enough, a quick look into his background sure does. Guybrush is a scrawny little guy attempting to prove himself as a pirate in the Monkey Island series, and in his travels, he falls in love with a girl named Elaine Marley and winds up having to deal with the main villain of the series, LeChuck.

This all sounds simple enough, and it is, but the reason that Guybrush and the Monkey Island series have had success is the humor. Monkey Island games have little to no action whatsoever in them, and the vast majority of the game comes in watching the interaction between the characters. The games take it one step farther and allow Guybrush to interact with everything from bridges to fishing bait, and his off-the-wall remarks made during these interactions keep fans returning to the series with each passing title. Monkey Island games have appeared across five different systems, and so long as a solid fanbase remains, the niche series will continue to churn out hilarious games.

Guybrush Threepwood's Contest History
Win-Loss Record: 0-3

Summer 2002 Contest - East Division - 9 Seed
 * Eastern Round 1 --- Lost to (8) Ryo Hazuki, 15818 [28.56%] - 39574 [71.44%]
 * Extrapolated Strength --- 58th Place [10.12%]

Summer 2004 Contest - Hyrule Division - 10 Seed
 * Hyrule Round 1 --- Lost to (7) Bowser, 12652 [17.01%] - 61731 [82.99%]
 * Extrapolated Strength --- 63rd Place [9.82%]

As solid a fanbase a Guybrush Threepwood has, that very fanbase is about as small as it gets. Guybrush not only lost to Ryo Hazuki, but allowed him to score over 70% on him. He not only lost to Bowser, but he allowed Bowser to score 80% on him. These are embarrassing losses, and if this is the best that Guybrush can do, then he's better off not in the bracket in the first place. Guybrush's performance in 2004 put him on the same levels as Ms. Pac Man, Mr. Driller, and Tanner. Yet for some reason, Guybrush was allowed back in the field (and horribly overseeded to boot) after stinking it up in 2002. His extrapolated strength in 2004 proves that he doesn't belong here, and with any luck we'll never see him in the contest again.

Summer 2007 Contest - Division 8 - Third Group
 * Division 8 Round 1 --- 4th place, 14817 [11.49%] - Duke Nukem, 38913 [30.18%] - Gordon Freeman, 38131 [29.57%] - Ike, 37086 [28.76%]

Ugh, can we please stop nominating Guybrush? He got placed in one of the worst fourpacks in the contest, and he still managed less than 15,000 votes. Never let this guy come back.
