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

Whoa dude. Whoa. It just went from funny to offensive. You can joke about rape all you want, but joke about the Dreamcast's worth as a system? Just... let's cool off man.



Anyway, this match is making me really confident in Castlevania > Halo. There's no connection between the two, I'm just saying.

Actually I should create a Nomination Rally for Boo anyway. I mean its BOO! Baldur's Gate II was made such a great game just because of him.
