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

Elf Bowling > SHadow hearts

QFT

...heck, I'm not convinced Elf Bowling loses that match. Then again, Shadow Hearts probably wins based on name-coolness, but EB could get a lot of joke-votes.

...y'know, 'a lot' as in relative to a match ending with 30,000 total votes.

Good game, Street Fighter. Now if it were to shock me and actually get the day vote, that'd be something. But I think we'll likely be consistent until morning, and then RE turns it into a 53-47 affair.

though I'm still not convinced on RE dominating the day vote.

*checks something*

yep, Frog won the day vote vs. Snake when Snake had his famous picture. it makes sense to assume that horrible pictures would be more effective in the day, when the more "casual" crowd is voting. I know Snake is pretty weak during the day, but he's not Frog weak.

So, who wins in Leon vs. Ryu? The difference in 2k5 was only 2%, and that was despite Solid **** and no PS2 RE4.

Ryu. Not sure if Leon is above Dante.
HaRRicH | Posted 7/24/2006 10:31:33 PM | message detail
I would be VERY tempted to take Leon, yet I don't think I have the balls to do it. I'd probably play safe and take Ryu, though I'd be torn.

Screw that, it makes no sense for Snake to be weaker in the day than Liquid. That was a pretty crazy overperformance, though, and while SF may be benefitting from something similar...well, we have yet to see an overperformance actually carry an entity to victory, for what it's worth.

Other than Mario/Cloud. <_______<

Eh? Why would that matter? Dante would kill Ryu in a rematch, probably by more than he lost in the first place.

No way Dante would kill him >_>

meh, you don't go from 55-45 to "killing him". I'd probably take Ryu.

Karma Hunter | Posted 7/24/2006 10:42:46 PM | message detail
...Dante is Top 25 too, y'know...

Anyway, I'd take Dante in that matchup. People have a hard time letting Ryu/Dante 2k3 go, but between Dante's DMC3 boost and my suspicions that Ryu may have overperformed a tad on Sonic thanks to SFAC (KOS-MOS helps this argument, too), I'd give it to Dante without too much of a sweat.

Oh, but Ryu probably > Leon. Can't see Leon up with Dante, and Dante > Ryu is probably risky enough.

Lode Runner | Posted 7/24/2006 10:47:38 PM | message detail
we're concerned, but there's not much to say when it's a continuous 51-49 match unless you want to go WHOA DOWN 14 over and over. I'm personally still thinking about Liquid/Frog/Solid and why that would happen, then comparing it to this match.

Without knowledge of voting trends, I'd be WAY more into this, sadly.
