*Extrapolated Standings*

Explanation of Extrapolated Standings:
http://sc2k5.com/drupal/node/11

Simple Explanation of Extrapolated Standings:
A = Strongest Character
B = Character Weaker than A
C = Character Weaker than B
To figure out a character's Xsts Percentage ---> [(CvB)(BvA)]/50 = CvA
To compare how C would do against B ---> [(CvA)/(BvA)]*50 = CvB
To figure out how B would do against A ---> [(CvA)/(CvB)]*50 = BvA

Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest
"If my fate is to be destroyed... I must simply laugh!" -Magus

As he walks the path of life...his name is called for..chanted by those, his fellow Elites, his equals, who know the power of his prose...as the noobs, fanbabies, and nerdboys cower in the darkness...afraid the truth of their blind loyalty will be brought forth before their judgment clouded eyes...

He answers the call with a tip of his BoSox cap...draws forth his pen to compose the very column that has increased Stats thread readership by 23.39%... He is...

The Sage of Board 8, Steve Illumina

Hahahaha, greetings gamers the world over...the time has come to write once more...be afraid kiddies, be very afraid indeed...

And so for 2005 it continues, in the 'Ridley' Zebes Division..

(2) Auron vs (7) Big Boss

Steve's Pick: Auron
Fanboy-O-Meter: Favors Auron handily...
Upset Odds: Possible...
Match Fun Factor: 8/10: I think this will be closer than people think, but not close enough...though the kiddies will call Auron stronger or weaker than he is no matter what .00% he ends with... Fools.

Comments: Before I discuss the non-equal power of the FF series characters...I shall do...a Weekend Update!

Yes, kiddies, in SNL tradition...here is the Weekend Update!

On Sunday, everyone's favorite amphibian, Frog, comfortably defeated some 2nd tier RPG-girl named Riku last night. When asked for commentary, he simply said... "Forthwith I shall slay Samus and restore honor!" Someone forgot to tell him he has no chance against the Nintendite heroine, but hey...at least he can catch a fly on the tip of his tongue!

Editors Note: Yes I picked Frog...Remember the 'Theory of Frogability' from last year? Anyone who does and posts its complex mathematical formula gets a cookie!

On Monday, the powerhouse pig, Ganondorf Dragmire, waxed poetic with FF starlet Yuna, who just cant seem to win a match yet keeps coming back for more. Her contest dreams over, she plans to star in FFX-3, the rebirth of Sin...

Editor's Note 2: Yes I picked Ganon...you think I am a fool like Tequilla? And I like Yuna too...oh well.

Mario, the King of Platformers, fresh off defeating some nobody, and Samus, Queen of Zebes, fresh off defeating another nobody, had 2 groups of their fanboys debating who is stronger just cause Samus had a .40 or so percentage of win prediction higher than the King. The nerds argued for hours until Ulti, Lord of Board 8, told them to shut up...and it was so. (Until Round 2 anyway)

Future Sweet 16er Zero was seen getting his oil changed at a Sunoco station, and when pressed for comment, he only replied, "I aint Protoman! I am a winner!"

In other news, the body of Carl Johnson was found on the streets of San Andreas, having been beaten over the head with a baseball bat repeatedly. Witnesses spotted an egghead shaped fellow leaving the scene...

Mathematicians the world over are trying to ascertain how a game that sold 5 million copies and is supposedly worshipped by underage fans the world over could not defeat a cult classic RPG character in an opinion poll. Apparently those 5 million players were too busy trying to sip some 'Hot Coffee' that day...

And finally, Lloyd Irving has conceded defeat in his next match weeks in advance saying, quote, "I am a nobody..really...dont vote for me...I suck."

And that brings us to today...one of the better 1st round matches with a #2 seed, as one of the FF beloved takes on a newbie from rising (in popularity) GameFAQ's series star Metal Gear Solid..in the Big Boss. All I can say is...Big Boss is gonna need a Bomb Blast Suit I do believe.

Prediction: Auron shall handle the Big Boss rather easily, making him look more like 'Little Fodder'

I really wish I could make sense of that, but seriously, you're just going out of your way to be a complete ass to Ulti every time he posts, you can dislike someone, but you don't have to attack them in every post you make after seeing one of theirs. I mean god I hate thejp, but even I hold back from him when he doesn't say something that deserves a response like that.

What happens if you have an obsessive need to balance the equation?

For example, right now Ganondorf is leading Yuna, thus Ganondorf > Yuna by 15125

But we could say that:
Ganondorf = Yuna + 15125

Or Ganondorf = 1.661 Yuna's

Yet you're still responding to (and trolling) things well after the fact. You're quite the bad liar, and the sooner you realize that no one wants you here, the better. This will probably happen after you lose your perfect bracket, because your mental stability is clearly such that you'll be borderline suicidal afterwards.
