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

The first one never hit 500, iirc. I think there may have been one other that purged in the offseason, but that's it. And obviously the previous one hasn't yet, but w/e >_>

Besides, Zero avoided SFF from Mega Man. I can't see someone unrelated getting SFF on him.

Did not expect Jak to bomb THIS badly. Even if he somehow manages to get a lot of the day vote he'll have dropped to like, 14% when it gets here

Psh, but Sam Fisher totally would give KOS-MOS a run! I stand by my spinning!

Course I wanted Raiden to be a high midcarder, not a low one.. but what are you gonna do?

I'm just glad Lloyd has redeemed ToS from being a laughing stock. Even if he doesn't win, this is a good effort. I still like his chances, though. Believe in the 10% day vote shift!

Well I wouldn't say hk has it wrapped up or anything, just that if a comeback occurs, it won't be jak doing it. Well that, and I really don't see lloyd being the type of character that would mount a comeback from the afetr school vote.

If Jak fails to make this epic comeback (yeah right, it's a lock!), I'm totally blaming it on the picture. I don't know why, but I'll figure it out.

It's because the Ks look somewhat like Xs. People think they're voting for Jax from Mortal Kombat, and this is LOL RacistFAQs.

Also, HX-47 seems cooler than HK-47. HAX.

Hk-47 even making a return to the contest was something I didn't think would ever happen until this contest's bracket was revealed (I payed no attention to it prior, so I don't know if it was announced to have 128 characters or not), let alone advancing to round two. Coupled with zero kicking ass, this match is full of win.

ToS is great and all, but Lloyd himself kind of sucked as a protagonist.

Pretty fierce stall here by Lloyd. In the last 25 minutes HK has gained four votes. I'm liking his chances more and more to hit 60% by daybreak!!
