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. --- Beggars can't be choosers. gg Link. |

Does Crash still have a chance of doing this? --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
109 votes, 16 updates remaining. Crash needs just under 7 votes per update. Fun fact: based on the last 10 minutes, Crash wins by 3 votes on the final update. |
So, uh, I showed up just to be around for the start of the next match but... ...wtf Crash? Did I bail just before you got serious or something? --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
I was about to say that Crash is dead, then that update happened. |
Hahaha, please let this be an exciting finish. I was afraid we were going to have back-to-back boring matches before HorseFAQs took the site by storm. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Elizabeth just fell off those last two updates. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 85/105 Today's Picks: Kirby and Solid Snake |
Crash needs 7.27 votes per update. Based on the last half hour and the last hour, he doesn't make it. Based on the last 15 minutes, he takes the lead at 11:45. |
Wtf was that previous Crash update? --- Proud supporter of DogFAQs |
charmander6000 posted... Elizabeth just fell off those last two updates. The 11:01 update was also a Crash spike. |
I still can't get over Crash being down over 350 last night and still trending down more or less last I checked to this! --- 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 comeback! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Crash
just isn't gaining by enough and you pretty much know he can't pull it
off (without some sort of rally), but it's still too close to write it
off completely. He's right on that edge where you can hold out hope but
basically know it won't happen. |

I'm hyped! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Crash
tends to do better at night, against Magus/Phoenix/Bomberman he was
getting consistent second place updates despite finishing the poll in
last. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 85/105 Today's Picks: Kirby and Solid Snake |
YEAH LETS DO RALLY FOR A SECOND PLACE Like it matters to anyone outside of the expert challenge.really |

64. These 7 votes cut aren't gonna work, Crash. --- When you have nothing to say, quote yourself ~ Solfadore |

More rallying please! --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
1 vote cut. Pretty sure it's over. --- When you have nothing to say, quote yourself ~ Solfadore |
edit: miscalculated, not looking good for crash |
Ugh, Crash, you can't do that! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
One more stall like that from Elizabeth and the match is over... --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 85/105 Today's Picks: Kirby and Solid Snake |
Elizabeth spiked that update. Expect a slight lull at 11:41. If Crash can't make a big cut here, it's probably his last chance. |
It's not looking good...C'mon, Crash, get your head in the game! --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
Yeah, looks like this is over. Shame. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
Where does one rally for Crash Bandicoot? >.> |
Crash needs to cut 11 votes per update to tie. In the last half hour Crash has cut 4.16 votes per update. At that rate Elizabeth will win by 34 votes. In the last hour Crash has cut 5 votes per update. At that rate Elizabeth will win by 30 votes. --- NGirl@work or on phone. |
hylianknight3 posted... Where does one rally for Crash Bandicoot? >.> In the same place you rally for Elizabeth So rallying on both sides won't work |
55 votes and 20 minutes. I don't think he can do it. Nice effort, though. --- Proud supporter of DogFAQs |
Over. |
Ugh. And now the drama is gone too. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
And that's match, good try Crash --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 85/105 Today's Picks: Kirby and Solid Snake |
And Elizabeth gains 10. Definitely over. --- Proud supporter of DogFAQs |
Crash needs to cut 16.25 votes per update to tie. In the last half hour Crash has cut 3.33 votes per update. At that rate Elizabeth will win by 52 votes. In the last hour Crash has cut 3.67 votes per update. At that rate Elizabeth will win by 50 votes. That looks like it. --- NGirl@work or on phone. |
If we all gather each and every one of our friends... --- ~ The Dilated One IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
11 vote cut, that's just taunting doing that after the match was effectively ended. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Dilated Chemist posted... If we all gather each and every one of our friends... I don't know about you but my friends are not zombies and they would for vote Crash so I don't have their support! |
Looks like it was all in vain... --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
It's weird but I would cheer for Crash if I had him in expert It's just that Elizabeth is pretty much the best female sidekick in the history of video games Maybe it's because she already lost,so it doesn't matter if she finish second or third... |
