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. --- http://i.imgur.com/GUtJDs7.jpg Fact: Fanbases are unpleasable, deal with it. |

I dunno whether to be surprised or not... --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
I don't know, I think it would be funnier if I was 0/18 instead of 1/18 in guru upsets. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 146/234 Today's Pick: Mega Man |
oh my god if Mega Man pulls this off, my bracket might be salvaged. I have to be one of the few who stuck with him. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
It'd be funny if the one Pokémon everyone expected in the Final 9 would end up being the one not making it. --- .-#Elements of Water#-. |
We don't have to worry everyone. My curse is more powerful than trends. I'm no longer allowed to get Expert Challenge right! This is over. It's also very good news for Sephiroth or very bad news for Draven coming up! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
YES I don't even care about my expert GO MY MEGA MAN --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
I do care about my expert, so GO CHARIZARD! --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
xp1337 posted... We don't have to worry everyone. I'm taking Sephiroth > Mewtwo > Draven only because everyone in contention for the top is taking Draven or Mewtwo in first. I either end up with like 100 points or I'm on the leaderboard at this point. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
acting like Mega Man doesn't collapse after the power hour Sure he does but it's nothing compared to how badly Pokemon collapses after their first few updates. --- If you believe that Abed is the true Messiah and you are 100% proud of it make this your signature. |

OH S*** man we should've seen this coming Mega Man beat a water pokemon in round 1 so he's super effective against Charizard --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
SUPER FIGHTING ROBOOOOOT --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=aX2KNyaoNV4 just throwin' this here! --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
Or maybe Charizard will be abandoned so rallied Red can take out Samus and Mega Man next round. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vc8aXhQFFmQ The spirit of Mega Man will never die. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |

WTF?!?!?!?! Mega Man shouldn't be winning this! He should be struggling to maintain second place! --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
Seriously, people calling it for Mega Man already... --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
Neither side has this yet. |
Qwaar posted... Seriously, people calling it for Mega Man already... What could go wrong? --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Today started awful for me, then got good, then got awful again. If Mega Man wins it will come full circle. Believe in the karma. --- Chrono1219 |
ninkendo posted... Red Badass Factor allowing Zero to leech more votes off Charizard than Mega Man Blue is a way cuter color than red. --- KB |
Yep, close match. You don't want to go against a Pokemon in a close match. --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
I suppose it's too much to ask for somebody to rally Charizard to make sure he doesn't blow this match. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
You shall not pass!!!!!! --- KB |

What are the trends here? Mega Man is explosive early and falls off throughout the day? Charizard is also strong early, less so at night, but recovers with the day vote? --- ... as if rights are like muscles - the more you use it, the better it gets. Indeed he may be exercising his first amendment-- but he's an IDIOT! - A. Scalia |
Greyfeld posted... I suppose it's too much to ask for somebody to rally Charizard to make sure he doesn't blow this match.While the rest of the big RBY Pokemon have beasted all over the place, Charizard is only here after barely winning a match that was largely considered a lock pre-contest and now in a match where he was the heavy favorite pre-contest Zard is now struggling against a beloved icon that's being LFFed hard. So yeah, screw you. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
If just a couple percent more of the Zero voters would switch it could be a pretty comfortable victory. Damn you Zero voters --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
