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 |

I
have Kuckles>Seifer>Celes for the next match, but most of the
contest crew thinks that Seifer is going to bomb. Makes me nervous, but
I just can't see Seifer coming in last. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
I hope Seifer somehow gets SFFed by Celes into single digit percentages. --- If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? [HERO'S PLUNGE] http://img.imgcake.com/finegifdy.gif |

I'm personally convinced Seifer won't lose. What has Celes accomplished in these that's noteworthy, again...? --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Wait, there are people taking Seifer over Celes? That's a thing? --- http://25.media.tumblr.com/577e7c376f5f1ba2c1e99c2bd374a202/tumblr_mpnimmUE2m1solfhro1_500.gif http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmmb4idD68O1r37arko1400gifve.gif |
Seifer vs. Knuckles was always the thing. LMAO Celes --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
I've got Kuckles>Seifer>Celes. I'm also bad at predicting these things. |
Here's to a respectable 20%. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xFhULStbkQ --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
Knuckles didn't seem to look so hot against Cecil so who knows. But I doubt it! --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

Seifer is losing to Celes, this is a thing now --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
At least Seifer is recovering --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 43/54 Today's Picks: Samus and Vaas |
After seeing Kefka beat Zack, I changed my expert bracket pick to Celes but I'm still surprised at just how weak Seifer can be --- http://i.imgur.com/lnKB0m9.jpg http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1184880/davis-again.gif http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8118/8656607511_94178dbf2e_o.gif |
Climbed the expert board on the no-pick woo. If only I hadn't picked Vaas in my bracket... --- Menji has reclaimed what was his by rights. I was more of a man with his than with my own combined. ##Alec |
Ouch 0 points if Seifer doesnt' catch up. How do you suck this bad --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
lol seifer How many years was he in the NRT? --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |
Yessss my knux crush these jokers --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
I even took Celes in my expert just for the heck of it since I had this weird feeling about Seifer after Rinoa --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
TheKoolAidShoto posted... FF8 is SO ASS Well, it's the worst "Golden Era" FF by far, and a case could be made about it being the worst FF period. (I guess 2, XII or XIII could be considered worst) --- "A game with amazing story and mediocre gameplay usually beats a game with amazing gameplay and mediocre story." - Vlado, Gaming Expert |
You better move your butt you grinning idiot. (Seifer not Knuckles, Knuckles is DA BOMB PLAYA) --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |
Actually, the way the Expert Challenge leaderboard is seeming to let me catch up Celes winning might somehow get me on there! How the hell am I 4 points back after the catastrophe that was Division 6? I was at least 15 points behind IIRC! And that was like 36 hours ago! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Hell yeah knux do it baby do it!! --- nt |
WellThoughtName posted... TheKoolAidShoto posted...FF8 is SO ASS Its pretty insulting to XII and XIII to be put in the same category --- http://i.imgur.com/lnKB0m9.jpg http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1184880/davis-again.gif http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8118/8656607511_94178dbf2e_o.gif |
Why would anyone vote for Seifer? Honestly I'm amazed Squall maintains the strength he has... --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC |
xp1337 posted... Actually, the way the Expert Challenge leaderboard is seeming to let me catch up Celes winning might somehow get me on there! No-picking and getting 0 points on several matches has moved me onto and up the leaderboard this division. --- Menji has reclaimed what was his by rights. I was more of a man with his than with my own combined. ##Alec |
WellThoughtName posted... TheKoolAidShoto posted...FF8 is SO ASS 8 was a great game, it just suffers from having a terrible cast. Even then, 8's cast is better than all of the games after 8. --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |
This is what you all get for not nomming Zell or Laguna tbqh. --- If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? [HERO'S PLUNGE] http://img.imgcake.com/finegifdy.gif |
Not my opinion! --- "A game with amazing story and mediocre gameplay usually beats a game with amazing gameplay and mediocre story." - Vlado, Gaming Expert |
Let's see where Seifer ends up anyway; FFVI has like the godliest board vote next to Pokemon now. It's weird that he'd be this weak after Rinoa held up quite well to Aeris (as far as FFVII vs VIII goes), so I expect a rebound. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |
OK yeah maybe this is an outsider looking in thing but why in god's name did anyone go with Seifer? He's SEIFER. --- http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpp5vkrHnZ1qipa7fo1_400.gif http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmmb4idD68O1r37arko1400gifve.gif |
Welp, I guess we know why it took so long for not-Squall FF8 characters to get in. --- Now Awaiting: Tales of Xillia, Squigly patch for Skullgirls |
It's amazing when you think about how much of Squall's strength must come from KH. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
For FFVIII fans Rinoa vs. Seifer --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 44/56 Today's Picks: Knuckles and Ezio |
Steins_Gate posted... OK yeah maybe this is an outsider looking in thing but why in god's name did anyone go with Seifer? Well, with how strong Squall is, you'd think that Seifer would have some kind of strength as his rival. He always seems to do well in FF8 character popularity polls. --- http://i.imgur.com/lnKB0m9.jpg http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1184880/davis-again.gif http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8118/8656607511_94178dbf2e_o.gif |
soooooo we never need to see non-Squall FF8 again I don't know how proud I can be of Celes when she's getting doubled by an echidna right now, but woo! Break those expert brackets! --- Leafs / Raptors / Blue Jays / TFC / Argos / Tottenham We'll get 'em next year. |
