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 |
way to suck Kirby --- Also since people will probably ask, we are indeed checking into the legitimacy of all incoming votes and so far, everything appears to be legit. - SBAllen |
If only ertyu were here to see this. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima SuperNiceDog: Bracket: Good, Taste: Bad |

I'm going to go in the corner and sob for a while, after seeing what switching my picks last round did to my expert bracket... --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |

Is Kirby puffed up this year? --- KB |
Sephiroth is going to win. It's only a question of how much. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
Remember, Kirby is everyone! |
Score-Brackets-% RightOmitted scores got it wrong. Another big hit to the leaderboards. No one in the top 226 gets it right. Prediction percentage is largely in the single digits across the board and only pokes into the double digits a handful of time. 12 people fell off the Top 49. TheOceIot, Tirofog, YetAnothrShadow, Als52, andylt, arelian, Axl_Rose_85, DarkFalconX, HeroicShadow, InvisibleOmega, JaySolano and Kibago did not have Mewtwo winning. 37 people got it wrong but survived. Current first place kenrmcha, current second place ecksgem, current third place Eikei, Greenmonkey034, SuorGenoveffa, CarveyFAQs, Colegreen_c12, fpce666, ahirsch101, RRRamos95, SoraLink2649, wakeuptogashi, ZenOfThunder, Astro1446, ChenKenichiFan, dimi161, Djungelurban, Flock_Masta_P, foxhead84, LordoftheMorons, mathmagus37, RAMS, strikerkid, VietBoi4Life, Xcarvenger, JeezyMiyagi, JeffZero, Jobi1, Karma_Hunter, Kirbydamasta, Korayashi, LordArcadio, NeoMagic249, OFool, POOTERSS, Prometheus89 and revo_gamer275 also did not have Mewtwo winning. Congrats to the 3-ways. The person jumped from tied for 227th place to 6th for a correct Mewtwo pick! --- Pokemon VGC2013 US National - 39th place Pokemon VGC2013 Worlds LCQ - Top 32 |
Not to rain on people's parade, but I get the feeling this rally is going to fall flat. --- I'm a genius! Geniuses don't NEED medication! |
(^o_o^) ^(o_o)^ ^(o_o)> (^o_o)^ ^(o_o^) --- GT: LegendaryFalco oh ok |
Sephiroth board vote confirmed TOLD YA SUCKERS /jk |
Play Kirby's Dream Collection Excellent 500th post. --- Brawl FC - 1332 8069 6690 http://i.imgur.com/OZ9aS.png |
Sephiroth looks pretty safe; he'll rise substantially the entire rest of the day. --- Hey I just met you, and this is crazy, but you have died of dysentery. |
Also,
while he's not doing amazingly, I was pretty right about Big Boss's
core fans not abandoning him. That's really sundering Kirby's bandwagon
potential. Someone like, say, Dante would have been a much better third
wheel. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
These match pictures are hilarious, Kirby sticks out completely in almost all of them. --- The horror. The horror. I embrace it... |
Kirby's got this. It's over. Trends have not been particularly strong this year… Remember Alucard? --- Harmony is peace. Peace is unity. Unity is harmony. I tell this to the King Nook. He ask me to leave. |
w00t! Seph keep it up! --- nt |
Kirby why couldn't you do this in 2010 to Sonic when I was actually counting on you then --- Bracket for the Great GameFAQs Character Battle IX contest: http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/cb9_code?c=5yiset6iJe2HCg87EdqV1-UnpdF4VgRZC5 |

These match pictures are hilarious, Kirby sticks out completely in almost all of them. It's two darkish males up against a pink ball, it's hard not for him to stick out. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 119/180 Today's Pick: Sephiroth |

Yeah, if Kirby is only stalling Seph now, I hate to see how this goes once the Power Hour finishes. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
eh Sephiroth's not too bad. Granted I am playing Final Fantasy VII right now, though. Voted Kirby anyways. --- http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif |
so the fire kirby pics are awesome --- GT: LegendaryFalco oh ok |
Kirby's getting legitimately cut here. There's an outside chance he can't even hold on through the Power Hour. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

Someone like, say, Dante would have been a much better third wheel. This is true. A less popular 3rd character would have been better for Kirby. Squirtle has that with Leon though. I expect Leon to get left in the dust that match. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

True, but when I saw http://img.gamefaqs.net/images/cbnine/battle/5255-01.jpg I couldn't help myself. Anyways, enough from me about the pictures... Kirby Kirby Kirby, he's the star of the show. --- The horror. The horror. I embrace it... |

From: Team Rocket Elite | #013 Congrats to the 3-ways. The person jumped from tied for 227th place to 6th for a correct Mewtwo pick! This is basically my 'doomsday scenario' bracket that I made for fun/speed bracketing... and it has a very real shot at beating my prize bracket. >__> It also has Kirby winning this match. http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/cb9_code?c=5vsjNP5MCqBFUZEsxpyyNkCS8B0MZpIsNF --- -.. --- - ... / .- -. -.. / -.. .- ... .... . ... |
Someone get Sakurai to rally for Kirby. --- "A game with amazing story and mediocre gameplay usually beats a game with amazing gameplay and mediocre story." - Vlado, Gaming Expert |
Kirby might be able to hold on for a while but the dead zone will absolutely bury him. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
From: WellThoughtName | #042 Someone get Sakurai to rally for Kirby. *Kirby trips, lands in 3rd place* --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords. With what? ROT-13? -CJayC |
Also assuming Sephiroth comes back and wins this, it'll be one of the bigger surprises I've seen this contest. Which is saying something considering he's the overwhelming bracket favorite! --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessss --- nt |
Karma Hunter posted... Also assuming Sephiroth comes back and wins this, it'll be one of the bigger surprises I've seen this contest. Sephiroth gonna make it further than Cloud like it's 2002 |
Sephiroth might have the lead before the power hour is over. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 119/180 Today's Pick: Sephiroth |
Why
are people forgetting that Seph was the third strongest character on
the site for a half decade? Even if he has fallen, he'll still put up
some beastly numbers. --- SephirothG post http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1268566/awwyeah.gif |
