Scotty edged out Geordi in our closest vote yet. I imagine that Scotty won because he didn't have to fall back on Data every time something went really wrong.

The next vote is a really hard one. I honestly don't know who I'd pick.

And he did it with style. There was an episode of TNG where the Enterprise D crew found Scotty in some suspended animation transporter thing. Scotty told Geordi that he always told the captain that repairs would take longer than they really would, so he could appear to miraculously fix it in the nick of time. That just rocks.

I'm actually not surprised that Batman won so easily.

I predict he will also beat Scotty in the next fight and have to face down R2 (who will win today's fight, I think). The resolution of that battle between godlike troubleshooters is anyone's guess.

edit: I suppose it's not as clear-cut as I think. The office admin, who correctly predicted the victor of everyone of last week's matches, believes that Mac could take R2 -- the deciding factor being mobility. She however, does agree with me that Batman can easily take Scotty and go on to beat Mac.

To my surprise, MacGuyver took R2. It wasn't a runaway victory, but every time I checked the numbers, MacGuyver always had the lead. I don't understnad you people

So, who gets to take on MacGuyver? Batman or Scotty? Only you can decide!

Well SE, it would seem that Batman has taken an early lead. As we all know Batman is known for having amazing reflexes and his reaction response here is not surprising.

However, I wouldn't underestimate Scotty just yet. The man can go from 1 vote now, to 25 in only a few seasons. Or was it between the movies that the fat attached itself to him? Either way, this man will beam himself a good many votes before this ones over.

SE, your thoughts?

Scotty's weight is certainly an important factor to consider, but we can't forget that Batman has the advantage of experience, and a lot of money. And better training. And a healthier body.

But who will win is anyone's guess.

Boy this is exciting.

'Boy' is right SE. Batman having a net worth of 4.35 million dollars is certainly an advantage.

However, Scotty's known for turning over the crowd as he comes through in the end for everyone.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this Batman's first year in the Troubleshooter Faceoff? Last year Scotty won 4 of his 5 matches.

Yes, in terms of the tournament, he's a rookie, but he's been troubleshooting for the GCPD for 60 years now, and he doesn't look a day over 35.

Well, I'm on the edge of my seat. I can't wait to see where this one ends!

We'll be back after this long break in programming to bring you more commentary, results, and maybe even some stuff on upcoming contestants.

Scotty enjoyed a brief surge in the voting last night, nearly catching up to the Dark Knight, but Batman did what he did best and came through. Seems like Scotty didn't over-estimate the time needed by enough.

And so, now we enter the title bout: the championship. The winner of this gets to take home all the peanuts folks. Who is it gonna be? MacGuyver, who only needs some pocket lint and a loose piece of cement to build anything he needs? Or the enigmatic detective of Gotham, who doesn't seem to need to build anything because it's already on his belt?

I thought Batman vs. the A-Team was a tough choice, but Batman vs. Macgyver is downright impossible. This is truly a battle of titans.

Well Fell, it would seem someone ripped a page out of your book, because the winner has a clear cut victory over his foe. Not that I wouldn't imagine such an act coming from the Dark Crusader.

And in the Blue corner, Batman topples his foe, utterly smokes his enemy, vanquishes his victim, decisively defeated his nemesis in this contentious last round of the Troubleshooter Faceoff!
