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

DK is looking absolutely pathetic here. I should have scaled my Oracle prediction for him down further due to him being such a choker.

Y'know, ever consider the possibility that we like Kratos or Kirby more than a non-character?

Great start by L-Block! About on par with Nick's lead over Bomberman in his first match. That's an impressive board vote.

Pretty solid start by Kirby, too, especially since he was pulling away towards the end.

Why the hell are you surpirsed about DK? Of course he's going to do poor here. I seriously shook my head in disgust when I saw people actually predicting DK to beat Kirby.
