*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 because Kefka cheated.


~RPGGamer~

Today was a hell of a match in any case though. That, and I think the terms "Barrier" and "George Romero" are going to stick around. Better get used to hearing those. :)

Creative's stat updater on this match is going to look weird. I wonder where he is right now?

I hope Ceej finds a way to prevent this for further rounds. I'm just glad this was a round 1 match, it would have hurt if it were a match in the Elite 8 or such...

But for those of you complaining about Ceej removing so many votes from Kefka even though Vercetti was stuffing as well, read the second paragraph of his post.

God knows what the results would have been without Romero. Honestly, I think the match would be closer for Kefka - the Vercetti cheaters wouldn't have had anything to respond to, though Vercetti likely still would have won.

Explicit Content.
Cheer Up Emo Kids.

Kefka winning would have been far better.

Not only would it have been a super upset, which would have caused chaos on the boards by ruining many people's brackets, but Kefka is a far better character than Vercetti.

All he is is an amalgamation of racial and gangster stereotypes. Boooooooooring.

Meh, CJayC states in his post that he basically considers Kefka the better character, that's good enough for me :p

Summer Contest Score: 17/18
Today's Pick: Tommy Vercetti

I'm glad this doesn't happen in a Cloud vs. Link match.

And I'm also glad that my bracket has been spared from yet another point loss.

Reserved for the winner of the SC2K5 Guru Challenge.

^He might be from south america too.

.

So, will the poll be redo'd? And is Kefka officially around VC's level? (If he stayed constant.)

Summer Contest 2k5 - Points: 17/18
Kefka Vs. Tommy Vercetti - Bracket: Tommy V. - Vote: Tommy V.

Let's not be sore about this--Vercetti won, and Kefka overperformed even with 1800 votes taken away. It's tainted, but it was still a wild match.

Summer Contest 2005: 17/18
Today: Kefka, Tomorrow: Crono

What a fool.


~RPGGamer~

I *knew* that name looked familiar. But there was just so much going on that--

--wait a minute, HOW MANY STAT TOPICS DID WE GO THROUGH TODAY???
---
I'm about to get sigged by Karma Hunter, and all I'll get is this lousy T-shirt.--Clockwork Dragon

It was a great match :)

Kefka keeping it so close to Tommy through that one 50/50 period was so cool.

Kefka still should have won, though <_<

What does this mean for the 20XX x-stats? Do the unadjusted ones predict this match well?

They're both 20XX.

Vercetti still underperformed by quite a bit, though you could attribute that to a decrease. Crono will tell the tale, thankfully, and we won't have to deal with mass SFF.

Poor Kefka though... the only way I am reassuring myself is by saying "Hey, my bracket is right now, and Kefka is a evil maniacal guy who tried to destroy the world."
