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. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |

Why are there no good Link quotes? The deepest, best-written, character in all of gaming surely should have some great lines. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |

Reposting this for those who haven't seen it: Message From KamikazePotato on 09/23/2011 Just letting you know that it is not a joke/invalid nomination. We're using the established game of Charles Barkley Shut Up and Jam Gaiden, where Charles Barkley is the main character and Michael Jordan is a recurring antagonist. The game and the characters in it fit all the rules of the contest, as well as the spirit. Message From GameFAQs on 09/26/2011 Wouldn't really call them "historical characters" Message From KamikazePotato on 09/26/2011 I think might be confused about what kind of game Shut Up and Jam Gaiden is? It's not a normal game. Charles Barkley has magic basketball powers and is traveling a post-apocalyptic world that was destroyed by a chaos dunk. Michael Jordan is the agent of an oppressive government, working to stop Barkley at every turn. They aren't just the Charles Barkley and Michael Jordan lifted from a random sports games - they're basically entirely different characters, like how games like Castlevania and Dynasty Warriors take generous liberties with Dracula and Lu Bu. I won't press the issue again after this if it still gets shot down, but they really do fit all the rules of the contest. In a weird sort of way, but yeah. Message From GameFAQs on 09/26/2011 I know the game - but entries like that lead to two possibilities: 1) It gets almost no votes, and goes out in the first round despite all the nominations, while keeping a better entry off the bracket, or 2) it becomes a /b/ rally point, winning and knocking out more popular entries, but alienating the majority of voters and leading to less people being interested in the contest (See: the latest GameSpot contest). ... There are no words. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Ha, what. --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |

Ranking our champions: Link OOT FFVII Cloud LoZ MM Sephiroth L-Block Link v Ganon --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
Minus more rally silliness, a game contest would be pretty interesting these days. --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
Despite
that ranking, I've voted pretty consistently for Cloud/FFVII against
Link recently. But that's as far as I'm willing to go to support having
a different winner. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
Well played, HM. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |

Sephiroth has no chance against Snake if they meet in the finals. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |

Kefka might lose to GlaDOS, STOP DOING THIS KEFKA --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |

You guys didn't listen. Now sit back and watch GlaDOS eat Kefka. --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
Link still got more votes than Seph/Kirby/Big Boss combined! |
Just when so many were aboard the Kefka hype train he comes out and looks like hell again! Shocking! --- Still smilin' :> |
So
we all band together to support Knuckles back in 2005 when he pulls off
a big upset, but both this year and 2010, we can't even be bothered to
help out Kefka when he does the same. ...Whatever. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
