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. |
well, I don't expect the board vote for FF7 to be that strong anyway I'll recheck the poll when I wake up tomorrow --- Character Battle IX: 75/93 points, Next matches: Vincent Valentine, Bowser http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif |
Errr, Vincent? You can start owning any time now... --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |

....if this match ends Mewtwo > PW > Vincent i will laugh so, so hard. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. |
Vincent just keeps going down what --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Phoenix is losing the board vote. This may be a first. --- Hey I just met you, and this is crazy, but you have died of dysentery. |
I'm just tumbling down the Expert leaderboard now my time to shine is finished ;_; --- F*** BT |
Turks? MO' LIKE TURKEYS |
Vincent
better get his ass in gear. I figured he'd struggle but at this point,
he could end up last for sure. He didn't make a single move during those
first five. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |
I really wonder what this match would be like if Phoenix and Vincent didn't look absolutely awful --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Honestly Vincent looks like a random anime school boy --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
Is there official art of Cloud crossdressing? --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
my phoenix pick looks slightly less idiotic in light of this lol --- Many people, of course, use 'sentimentalism' as a term of abuse for other people's decent feelings, and realism as a disguise for their own brutality. G H Hardy |
TheKoolAidShoto posted... I'm just tumbling down the Expert leaderboard now Same...was third at one point, now I'm way off the top 50. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
I wonder how many people don't even realize that's FF7 Vincent. I'm betting quite a few. --- 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 |
Whoever made this pic for Vincent needs to end themselves, seriously. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Also Lower votes in Asia just makes my point more legitimate. There weren't 200 people from reddit in that thread from Indonesia when there were hundreds (maybe thousands) from China? It just doesn't make sense. LoL is huge in China. HUGE. Impossible to overstate how ridiculously big it is. It's gigantic. China is so big on LoL it's the only server that has its own custom artwork for everything. |
nkansas13 posted... Phoenix is losing the board vote. This may be a first. Nah, Big Boss got the board vote over him the first time he had a Naked Snake picture. Apparently, odd pic choices are Phoenix's kryptonite. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |

Mewtwo
doubling Phoenix. It's ridiculous. Either there's a rally here, Vincent
has dropped off a cliff, or Mewtwo is Noble Nine level now. |
Vincent looks like Phoenix's lawyer sidekick. Really crass... --- Still smilin' :> |

Even in the middle tiers prediction percentage breaks 90. One person in the top 111 does get it wrong, though. No one fell off the Top 49. --- Pokemon VGC2013 US National - 39th place Pokemon VGC2013 Worlds LCQ - Top 32 |
I
think now that people have discovered Reddits rally potential the rest
of this contest will be kinda wonky. A big reddit topic for Mewtwo now
is bringing in all these votes and making it an easy win for him even if
you ignore the picture. Where does it end? I'm almost expecting
Dragonborn to actually beat Tifa again now since Reddit loves Skyrim --- http://i.imgur.com/lnKB0m9.jpg http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1184880/davis-again.gif http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8118/8656607511_94178dbf2e_o.gif |
TheOneAboveAll posted... Mewtwo doubling Phoenix. It's ridiculous. Either there's a rally here, Vincent has dropped off a cliff, or Mewtwo is Noble Nine level now. Or... he was ridiculously sabotaged by the picture on a level we've never seen before. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
KamikazePotato posted... I really wonder what this match would be like if Phoenix and Vincent didn't look absolutely awful Come on bro, that's a good pic for Phoenix. It looks just like him. If anything, he might be hurt because Vincent looks exactly like him, but as a suited normal man, Phoenix was gonna look like this hilarious version of Vincent no matter what. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |
Also, we've broken a thousand votes in five minutes. This is definitely a rally showing up, when Sonic's match couldn't break it in seven and it was a high scoring affair. |
TRE, how many alts do you have on the Expert Leaderboard? It seems like a lot of the bottom ones are you. --- WhiteLens while on the Expert Leaderboard. |
Phoenix looks fine, might not be his best, but anyone can tell it's him. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
By the way, this Vincent picture is an abomination and I am so damn embarrassed as a picsmith that it happened. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
AxemRedRanger posted... Is there official art of Cloud crossdressing? Is there official art of Cloud dressed like Lightning? |
Jesus tap dancing Christ! This tournament started out like a typical small town afternoon day, then somebody dumped PCP's in the water table and the place went ape****! I thought I was doing pretty good in the pick em but the last few matches totally humped my score card into the ground. |
Mewtwo's rally is on page 2 already |
It is not at all a good pic for Phoenix. It has none of his energy, and he just looks plain stupid. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
it maybe a rally Lightning/DK/Falco (for comparison) had 646 total votes at 12:06:05 while this has 300 more --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
Holy crap, Mewtwo is getting reddit rallied? Oh Draven --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/gdl8lcn.jpg |
Mewtwo's rally is on page 2 already Well there goes the fun out of stats... --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 71/93 Today's Picks: Vincent and Bowser |
PHOENIX --- Fight like dragons, have no fear, swords are made of STEEEEEEEEL~ |
Mewtwo > Phoenix > Vincent is a go. Let us all shun paulg so hard. No one knows who that is. --- And I would do anything for bets, but I won't do that! No I won't do that! I am Sir Chris, the Knight that says NICK!!! |
Everything awful has the most rally potential it's a recurring theme --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
So is Phoenix getting a rally too because he went up --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
wow --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
This is sure some rally for Mewtwo. He might only get quadrupled by Draven when they meet! |
Votals stabilizing. Vincent should perform better now. |
Phoenix > Vincent > Squall hold dat, Leon --- F*** BT |
what if reddit just trolls us and rallies for Phoenix instead --- Fight like dragons, have no fear, swords are made of STEEEEEEEEL~ |
