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. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |

L-Block/Samus/Tifa L-Block/Red/Charizard the goddamn tetris piece is going back to the finals --- ~War~ |
I really like today's match picture. --- ~ The Dilated One IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
Woo hoo, Expert Leaderboard Top 10. Thanks Squall! --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. http://www.wwe.com/f/wysiwyg/image/2013/07/wyatt07062013.gif |
Wow, the language on /v/ is just...ugh. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
FranzyvonKarma posted... L-Block/Samus/Tifa Still more personality than Link. --- Hey I just met you, and this is crazy, but you have died of dysentery. |
I misspoke in Post 500, though. Don't play Wario Land, play Pokemon RBY! |
So I guess Cecil and Pit just suck --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
FranzyvonKarma posted... L-Block/Samus/Tifa L-Block has a tough road ahead of it, as Tifa won't hurt Samus enough for L-Block to advance. L-Block is going to need rallies to get past Samus. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
FranzyvonKarma posted... L-Block/Samus/Tifa Rather see L-Block win again than see Draven go beast. At this point it's blatantly clear that GameFAQs contests are not what they used to be, though I suppose nothing else could be expected after a one-year hiatus. Never mind that said year was arguably the worst year for games ever (if Gametrailers is handing a GOTY award to a game it gave only a 9.1/10, something's wrong). --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Im refreshing /v/ for 10 minutes and can't find that so called rally topic Anyway,I don't believe in Red to beat Squall despite Vivi LFF He is not strong enough |
Has
SBAllen not been filling out his expert challenge recently? Or has he
really gotten every 2nd/3rd place wrong for the past week? --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords. With what? ROT-13? -CJayC |
What is /v/? --- ~ The Dilated One IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
FranzyvonKarma posted... L-Block/Samus/Tifa Missingno couldn't rally past Squall after squeaking by Tidus. Do you really think L-Block will be able to rally past Samus after only going 52/48 on Auron? --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
The most popular board on 4Chan.The place where rallies are posted. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
Maybe Rivalry Rumble was right about something. Trainers have looked more impressive this round than Cloud and Sephiroth. They don't give a crap about SFF. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
L-Block's
natural strength will have to increase next round (through the
bandwagon effect) against Samus to have a shot at beating her with the
help of rallies. And I'm not sure if L-Block will actually get
bandwagoned for beating Auron. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |

Safer_777 posted... The most popular board on 4Chan.The place where rallies are posted. /b/ is the most popular board on 4chan, but rallies are rarely posted on /b/ these days. Most of the rallies will happen on /v/ or /vp/. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Red will easily beat Squall and Vivi I believe. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
So I guess Cecil and Pit just really
sucked. I mean, Wrex might well pull this back - Nintendo's early vote
being orders of magnitude stronger than a lesser western character's -
but narrowly beating a leeched Wario is nothing to write home about. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
I really don't understand how Yoshi match is 3rd Yeah being the second match in the contest (or third?) but still...There are Solaire and Demi-Fiend..who cares about them..? |
Jakyl25 posted... Wrex CUT Oh,on Wario? I was afraid for a moment |
Anyway, back to playing Wario Land: Shake It. --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords. With what? ROT-13? -CJayC |
Yeah, after Knuckles crapped the bed this result isn't too surprising. Cecil's big result became a lot smaller after that. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Captain Syrup FTW |
Go Red! Poke domination! |
So Rydia > Cecil or has Snake's round 2 performance become a bit lackluster? --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
Just think how...popular Awakening is then If Knuckles was so weak,and Cecil weaker by that regard-that means Pit is like below fodder levels or something even after Uprising...it seems like if we compare Pit strength to Tharja,he didn't get boost by Uprising AT ALL But maybe im talking nonsense so if someone can post a deeper analysys of how Uprising helped Pit (if at all) it can be great |

Both Wario and Wrex spiked on that update, probably because of the rally. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Welp off the leaderboard, that's what I get for not switching back to Squall after seeing Vivi preform. But holy hell, Wario! --- WhiteLens while off the Expert Leaderboard. |
Still can't find the rally Unless it on /b/...and in this case I don't bother There is like 90% chance of encountering a disgusting picture or a male genitalia picture in the first page I don't wanna |
Wrex used Cut! It was super effective! --- When you have nothing to say, quote yourself ~ Solfadore |
Wrex winning out --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
That site loves Nintendo characters and nothing would cause more butthurt than Wrex winning. This is ridiculous Why are they always so immature? |
Nanis23 posted...
Not to mention dead wrong. The board would have loved Wrex winning. --- POKEFEAR |
I think the board liked Vivi winning too, from what I could tell. |
And Red with 771 lead,despite that "rally" I don't want to talk too soon like I did in the Vivi match,but really..what is going on here? it doesn't seem like the rally works..at all |
That site loves Nintendo characters and nothing would cause more butthurt than Wrex winning. XD, right into our trap --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
Who's being rallied now? --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords. With what? ROT-13? -CJayC |
Nanis23 posted...
Who knows. Better question is how are they so blind to how wrong they are. If Mario won yesterday night there would have been a ton more complaining. Vivi was minimal. Wrex would be minimal. The guys who would get the most complaining are the guys set to win, leave an opening, then snatch it back. --- The King Wang. Listen up Urinal Cake. I already have something that tells me if I'm too drunk when I pee on it: My friends. - Colbert. |
Honestly 4chan loves all three characters --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
That site loves Nintendo characters and nothing would cause more butthurt than Wrex winning. Bet the guy who posted this just had Wrex in his expert bracket! |
Nanis23 posted... Just think how...popular Awakening is then Hmm... I dunno. 51% or so on Tiny Tina just isn't good, especially after all the other Borderlands characters stunk up the joint. --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance!
