*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

that's gotta be the closest thing to an ontopic 500th post I've ever seen.

that said, it's so ridiculously offtopic that it rules. I'd think your standard magic character would have magic like you'd have fireballs.

anyway, come on, Vivi. kick Zelda's ass.

I was going to reep more praises onto Manny.

You know because he deserves it.

Heh, I was at least going to end it by saying Vivi > all other Square characters... both in a Melee game AND overall.

Someone should start a Final Fantasy Melee discussion topic... although it would probably draw in all of the idiots. (-_-)

Oh Vivi...my poor, disrespected little mage. I'm blown away by how high the predictions for Zelda went in this match...I swear, if this match ends up anywhere near that one-sided, then the winner is going to simply walk all over Snake next round.

From: Sir Crono | Posted: 7/27/2005 7:17:32 PM | Message Detail
There aren't that many sword users in the FF world. Yes, it's more common than any weapon, but it's not like every FF character uses them.

In FFVII, Cloud, Zack, and Sephiroth use them.
In FFVIII, nobody uses them, unless you count Squall's and Seifer's gunblades.
In FFIX, only Steiner uses them (and I seriously doubt he'd be in any sort of FF melee game).
In FFX, you've got Tidus and Auron.

Vivi, a black mage who has "Final Fantasy" written all over him squaring off against Zelda, a princess who carries the namesake of the Zelda series. A good match tomorrow.

Well, it's just that all the sword characters (save maybe Steiner) would most definitely be put into any FF Melee game.

Then the rest would be using long ranged stuff like guns and spells.

How would a Calculator work in this game? =p

*raises hand*

Would Sora be allowed in such a game, by the way? Or even other Square characters? I'd hope it'd be more than just FF characters.
