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

Go Ike!

Repost:

In all honesty the thing that's keeping me from calling them all weak is how bad they're beating Guybrush. It's Guybrush, but...wow.

Donkey Kong Country 2 for next Games contest.

No, no one goes to that silly site. GameFAQs couldn't care less about SMASH BROTHERS, no sirree.

Oh, look, Ike retakes the lead. I'm sure this is all brackets and PoR strength. Totally.

Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package.

screw that though -- 11.36% update for Guybrush!

And I'm sure that Gordon and Sora disappointing doesn't have anything to do with *cough*overrated*cough*. Oh wait, I'm sure that was all that high seed jibber-jabber. Y'know, that same 1 seed that Crono used to such devastating effect in 2k6 after FINALLY getting it.

Question: is Ike more known for FE or SSBB?

If it's SSBB, then I'd wager that his best time is at night, when the SSBB site updates...I don't think he's got typical SSBM/Nintendo-trends If it's for FE, then I don't know. As already mentioned, FE's day-vote did beat SH and MG, though they're both losers with the day-vote. Marth didn't go up much against DK or Kratos either, I don't think...

...but again, if it's for SSBB, then I think the day-time hours will really be bad to him considering we're currently in the NPH.
