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

Tifa probably will get the after school vote given that she has a KH2 pic.

I agree with MYRO but wait what about the people in England or Brittan or other places that aren't off that could turn that could make a good after-school vote affair.

I just can't believe this. Did Tifa really get SUCH a big boost from KHII? I mean:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2120

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1777

Well, it seems Samus definitely got weaker and Tifa definitely got stronger. Tifa has a shot to win this match. So is Samus even weaker than Mega Man now?

YOU GOT
THE PLAN
EvenMyROgetsB7 | Posted 11/7/2006 7:53:59 AM | message detail
Maybe it's just a state by state thing then. I know virtually the entire northeast has school off on election day, and I've had it since the earliest days of school, so it's nothing new.

Ah nm I stand corrected, public school is cancelled on election days. All the private schools are open though...so there will be a mini after school vote.

This is beyond awesome. Tifa'll probably lose anyway, but still. Good stuff.

Also,

If Tifa gets 45% on Samus I will run into a brick wall repeatedly.

Does your state use public schools as the voting stations? Maybe only in the states where the schools = voting polls they get off.

Am I the only one who supports EC here? I mean Peach and Jill being that high is ridiculous. I'm not saying it's ALL the picture, but it's a significant factor.

I'm actually still confident right now with my Samus > Crono pick (unless Samus gets another ZSS pic :( )

Same here... I'm completely confident in Samus still winning the bracket, and then jobbing in the BR, so long as Ceej doesn't give her another ZS pic.

I hope so, everytime Tifa looks like she's about to get going, Samus comes back with a bigger lead than before! :(

Not really... this match has been going like this forever. Samus wins updates constantly, Tifa takes a big cut, somewhere around 50, next update goes 50/50 or so, then Samus starts winning 'em again.

Until proven otherwise in either of her next two matches, I'm putting this down as one of those huge one off anomalies, a la Mario/Cloud 2k2, as has already been brought up.

Nidoran F aside (and no-ones taking that seriously), there's been absolutely no indication so far that a 50/50 was suddenly going to be sprung on us.

Ok... 3 updates in a row is just unprecedented. I'm afraid Tifa is starting to comeback again. What the hell is with the night vote characters getting the 12PM-2:30PM vote? It's so weird.

I realized after I posted that, that unprecedented was a bit of an extreme word to use in that situation. >_>

But still, that's the first time Tifa's done that in a long while.
