Common Stats Topic Lingo Defined*~ SFF (Same Fanbase Factor) - Same Fanbase Factor is the theory that, if two contestants share a common fanbase, the weaker of the two options will underperform in a direct matchup. For instance, Link was expected to defeat Ganon with 65% of the vote in 2004, based on their 2003 values. Instead, Link collected near 88% of the vote. This is the best example of SFF we've ever seen. However take some SFF labels with a grain of salt, as many people will slap it onto any match that doesn't make perfect sense. Extrapolated Standings - The mathematical "strength" of a contestant that's determined based on their performance relative to the rest of the field. This number is typically based on the contest entrant's loss, but adjustments are sometimes made. See above for a watered down explanation for how the stats are calculated. --- ~Zen |
"It's
time to settle this once and for all! My determination is absolute! I
will prove the value of my beliefs even if it means my Pokémon friends
get hurt! Since you've come this far, I believe you are equally
determined. If that's so, prove it to me! Show me the depth of your
determination!" |
no comment --- JustinCrossing (10:01:24 PM): omg why are muskrats so cute Luster Reloaded (10:03:31 PM): I don't know why. |
All part of The Plan --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
aw yeah opening post --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
rydia splitting the sexy vote with alucard imho --- Fast Falcon ate my bracket for dinner in the guru contest. |
go Falcon --- Character Battle IX: 25/28 points, Next matches: Captain Falcon, Bayonetta http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif |
I'll just be stupid and say that if Alucard keeps gaining percentage, eventually the gap will start closing too. --- *2, *8,070,446 Kuroko no Basket *3, *6,495,240 Naruto |
To reiterate: BlAcK TuRtLePosted 7/23/2013 12:15:55 AMmessage detail I'm ready to call this for Alucard. If it's this close during the power hour, Falcon is in for a world of hurting once the kiddies go to bed. --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |
Right now Rydia has 42.30% on Alucard. If she finishes above 41.48% she'll manage to outdo Magus, which means Cecil beats Crono or something, right? --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |

dethfdddddh posted... rydia splitting the sexy vote with alucard imho impossible, considering falcon has 100% of it |
Are
people really going to act like there being only 1 nintendo character
in this poll doesn't make a huge difference? It's been proven time and
time again they do. --- nt |
Falcon has metal nipples. Can't get sexier than that. --- "A game with amazing story and mediocre gameplay usually beats a game with amazing gameplay and mediocre story." - Vlado, Gaming Expert |
BlAcK TuRtLe posted... To reiterate: VOUCH. If these trends hold (or worse, they buck in Alucard's favor) Falcon is finished. Alucard is gonna destroy the night vote, he should have a 1000 or 800 vote barrier set up for the final hours at the least. |
Alucard may have the night, but Falcon still has the morning. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 24/28 Today's Picks: Falcon and Bayonetta |
YES! That's it! Hold 'im steady, Alucard. Hold him steady! |
1337gamerpr0 posted... dethfdddddh posted...rydia splitting the sexy vote with alucard imho look apparently we can invent fanbase splits now and I say falcon isn't part of the sexy club --- Fast Falcon ate my bracket for dinner in the guru contest. |
All this night and day sounds like a vampire story. |
WellThoughtName posted... Falcon has metal nipples. GOLD nipples, no less! |
SnoicFactor posted... Are people really going to act like there being only 1 nintendo character in this poll doesn't make a huge difference? It's been proven time and time again they do. How is Rydia not Nintendo? --- Crucifying my Oracle average one match at a time |
Alucard
has to have a REALLY good night vote to cushion him against a possible
morning comeback here. Does he really have that good a night vote? --- Drop it to the floor... |
Karma Hunter posted... ctesjbuvf posted...I'll just be stupid and say that if Alucard keeps gaining percentage, eventually the gap will start closing too. Me too. It's great right? --- *2, *8,070,446 Kuroko no Basket *3, *6,495,240 Naruto |
Falcon's
morning vote is not as good as his ASV. At least with the morning
vote, Europe is still voting in huge numbers and Smash is very weak in
Europe. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
ShatteredElysium posted... SnoicFactor posted...Are people really going to act like there being only 1 nintendo character in this poll doesn't make a huge difference? It's been proven time and time again they do. Alucard was playable in Dawn of Sorrow. He's clearly Nintendo as well, making this a three way Nintendo split. --- Fast Falcon ate my bracket for dinner in the guru contest. |
DSRKVRTheDealer posted... All this night and day sounds like a vampire story. Alucard famously dies with the morning vote, so yeah, it fits quite fine. C'MON VAMPIRE SAVIOR! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mUdYdDNBq0 Playing this all night long if need be. C'mon Alucard! DO IT! |
Falcon's lead is getting bigger --- The official rad dude of the Pokemon X board. |
damn you NintendoFAQs --- sig |
SnoicFactor posted... Are people really going to act like there being only 1 nintendo character in this poll doesn't make a huge difference? It's been proven time and time again they do. Just being Nintendo isn't going to help anyone. Falcon is doing well because he is a huge Smash fan favorite with awesome appeal. It's part of his intrinsic strength. You want a character indicative of just being Nintendo and Smash, we saw Jigglypuff in Division 1. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
kinsho3 posted... Alucard has to have a REALLY good night vote to cushion him against a possible morning comeback here. Does he really have that good a night vote? Yes. He does. He's a children of the night and the vote patterns match that. |
kinsho3 posted... Alucard has to have a REALLY good night vote to cushion him against a possible morning comeback here. Does he really have that good a night vote? He has a good night vote, but I think its going to be more of a stall or minor vote gains than anything. |
ShatteredElysium posted... SnoicFactor posted...Are people really going to act like there being only 1 nintendo character in this poll doesn't make a huge difference? It's been proven time and time again they do. She's square. That makes a big difference in this poll. .Nintendo has a more consistent voting fanbase. Add square, and it'll drain Alucard more. --- nt |
Falcon
always had a very big chance to beat Alucard. They're literally next to
each other in the 2010 stats. Anyone surprised by this hasn't been
paying attention! --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Falcon yessir --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
I'd love to see Alucard win this, just to give this night/day thing some credit for actually deciding a match here for once.... --- Drop it to the floor... |
i'd love a way to know 'how' Nintendo the old-school FFs are. is terra more nintendo than sonic these are the questions that keep us awake --- Leafs / Raptors / Blue Jays / TFC / Argos / Tottenham We'll get 'em next year. |
Falcon's
morning vote is not as good as his ASV. At least with the morning vote,
Europe is still voting in huge numbers and Smash is very weak in
Europe. No ASV so some of those people will vote in the morning --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 24/28 Today's Picks: Falcon and Bayonetta |
Consistent
gains, but bad gains considering there are just thirty-five minutes
left before Falcon's lifeline runs out. 15 votes an update ain't gonna
cut it here! |
Rydia probably has enough overlap with both to be hurting them more than an average character would. But I doubt she's impacting one more than the other. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
kinsho3 posted... Alucard has to have a REALLY good night vote to cushion him against a possible morning comeback here. Does he really have that good a night vote? AFAIK, yeah he really does. That said, as others have pointed out, Falcon is the lone Nintendo character, which gives him a huge boost now and in the morning. This could end up being a VERY interesting match if Falcon builds a big enough lead now to keep it within 500 going into the last few hours. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
Rydia is gonna win. Just you wait. --- "A game with amazing story and mediocre gameplay usually beats a game with amazing gameplay and mediocre story." - Vlado, Gaming Expert |
Rydia making me feel good about Cecil > Pit and Wrex! --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
How come no one is considering the truly horrifying possibility borne out from this match? what if every single character is Nintendo --- sig |
Karma Hunter posted... How come no one is considering the truly horrifying possibility borne out from this match? rSFF confirmed at last! |
Karma Hunter posted... How come no one is considering the truly horrifying possibility borne out from this match? We'll find out in the Link/SnakeorEpona/Mario finals! --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
This
is still NPH, pretty much Falcon's best hour in the match so I'm not
worrying too much. Alucard'll win, it's all part of the plan. --- Zinsanity of the Helix Board |
With
all the talk of Card's night vote, it would be pretty funny if he does
nothing with it and the match remains like this the entire time. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
KamikazePotato posted... Falcon always had a very big chance to beat Alucard. They're literally next to each other in the 2010 stats. Anyone surprised by this hasn't been paying attention! Same here, I picked Falcon because I figured Nintendo today is stronger than Castlevania which has been slipping for a while which would boost Falcon from 2010 to give him the edge. Though I shouldn't say I have been always correct when it comes to stats; I argued Morrigan 2002 was a anomaly and Crash Bandicoot was fodder and wondered why everyone was hot on them. --- In Oz; cruel is the usual punishment. |
