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. --- It's not about the machine, it's the pilot! |

Need to go faster than that, Link! --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Never has a 20 vote cut looked so painful. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Is Omegle still around? Just ask people "Do you like Nintendo?" and if so have them vote Link. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
We need to get Obama to RT that. --- Be a good little washing machine, now... o_0 |

Ouch that hurts --- MZero, to the extreme #saltygravy294 |
That
stall was huge for Draven. It came from a spike and a slight Link lull,
though, so (assuming it didn't come from stuffed votes) Link should be
able to swing that back next update. |
We need someone like Cena or Punk to rally, not Trent Baretta. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
TheCodeisBosco posted... Who is Trent's scientist friend lmao? Me. I was really good at math and science when we were kids. --- SephirothG post http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1268566/awwyeah.gif |
If Link wins here, this will be the finals. Link: 70% Snake: 20% Samus: 10% --- Zinsanity of the Helix Board |
In before Draven starts pulling in 200+ updates again for no explicable reason --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
I wonder if anyone's been counter-rallying Draven on some big LoL Twitter accounts. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
as if Link hadn't come back from pitiful updates numerous time. DON'T LOSE HOPE. --- "A game with amazing story and mediocre gameplay usually beats a game with amazing gameplay and mediocre story." - Vlado, Gaming Expert |
Blurgh my version got closed to here's the music I had: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDuhSdtvhUY --- "Hamas isn't really a terror organization." -Terran [Evil Republican] Play Der Langrisser. |
Link needs 62 votes to win. In the last half hour, Link has cut 61 votes per update. At this rate, Draven wins by 40 votes. In the last hour, Link has cut 56 votes per update. At this rate, Draven wins by 166 votes. Ouch. --- *shrug* |
nintendogirl1 posted... Lightning Strikes posted...So there are at least 3 Brits up watching this right. Newcastle eh. I am under sworn oath to hate them as they are the team my parents support.
