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

WTF @ 47% update for Squall.

Also Akuma's votes for the past 5 updates

70
78
74
70
38

WTF where did half of his votes go? >_>

Apparently there was a sale on gunblades and Akuma voters went to go buy em or something. What the hell was that?

And to answer your question:

Yes, Aeris is getting SFFed a bit, likely. But not by that much. The match between her and Squall wouldn't be that close anyway.

Akuma was just teasing her.

Now he's going to launch into some monologue about how one vote represented her shell of a body and the other represented her wretched soul and how he's so happy to take them from her and all that.

... what?

So this is a pretty fierce stall by Akuma. What's he gotta keep Aeris at till the morning vote for people to humor a comeback possibility?

I kinda hope Akuma doesn't start chopping now, since people who win this next block tend to lose the day vote.

I hope the Squall/Aeris implied match score will end up wider than it is now. It definitely should, though. I need more Snake = Samus/Mario evidence.

Time .| Aeris .....| Akuma .| Geno ....| Squall
01:00 | 25.89% | 22.14% | 19.55% | 32.42%
02:00 | 26.67% | 23.33% | 17.85% | 32.15%

05:00 | 26.59% | 24.79% | 11.10% | 37.52%

Geez. I think Aeris is going to be taking in ~26.50% of the vote from here until the end of the match. Talk about consistent >_>

Holy CRAP, Geno did awful that hour. It makes him look like a day-vote king.

I missed a lot of discussion... but I don't feel like scanning it all (um, yet). Who gets second next round... Hayabusa or Riku (or heck, maybe Nightmare)?

First hour was Aeris's weakest, huh? I like that. Course it was also Akuma's weakest... but... the board hates Akuma, I blame the board vote! And the bracket vote! Never give up the fight, yo. The hell with superstitions about this block, start cuttin, Akuma!

The n00b Avenger | Posted 10/1/2007 2:16:49 AM | message detail
Well, logically speaking, as Geno fell in the night, both Akuma and Squall took advantage of it while Aeris stayed exactly the same.

It should probably also work in reverse, in that when Geno starts reclaiming % with the day vote, the % that Akuma and Squall took from him will go back and Aeris will still remain unaffected

Aeris is tearin into him now. They don't call these the dead hours for nothin.

...

... what?!

Okay, seriously though... this has made me feel a lot better about Akuma winning the day vote. Very small gains in the night + killing during the 5th hour is usually signs of the epic doom come daylight. We'll see though! Looking forward to what this match looks like when I wake up.

This doesn't make sense... I saw this round and assumed one FF character would be right out in the lead and the other would be dead, purely due to SFF. It's not supposed to split in the middle!

Not that I mind at all... :D
Gaddswell | Posted 10/1/2007 2:52:36 AM | message detail
What a funny update. It's like Aeris and Squall switched updates and Akuma was stalling Squall.

I'm following the trends here by watching Geno's percentage. it looks like he's stopped bleeding, so I guess this is the "morning vote".

Aeris looks like she's plummeting in percentage by those two updates, but Akuma's not doing anything yet.

give it time - these things don't turn around in a couple of updates.

that said, the school vote's gonna bury Akuma even harder, most likely. he's gonna have a *big* hole to dig out of, and it's not like anyone's expecting him to be a day vote god.
