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://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baUY9LFlYh0 - KokorokokoroKOKOROkokoROKokoro-chan iu na http://myanimelist.net/animelist/raytan7585 |
If the lead doesn't go above 5000, Snake can still do it. --- 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~ |
while I try scrambling to find some more help, let's take this intermission to Rank the Noble Nine <.< --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
Since we are going the route of trying to rally wrestlers, how about Kofi Kingston? Unlike AJ Lee, he ain't busy tonight. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! The artist formerly known as greatone10. |
Rank them on what basis? >_> Link > Snake > Mario > Samus > Cloud > Mega Man > Crono > Sephiroth > Sonic or something --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Rank the Noble Nine Solid Snake Link Mario Samus Mega Man Crono Cloud Sonic Sephiroth Because why not... --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 179/324 Today's Pick: Link |
Link Snake Samus Mario Mega Man Sephiroth Cloud Crono Sonic In terms of strength, now. And yes, Seph could very well beat Cloud, now. --- Allen didn't screw VV, Phoenix Wright didn't screw VV, Mewtwo certainly did not screw VV, nor did paulg screw VV. Vincent Valentine screwed Vincent Valentine. |
Augh, that's the kind of Draven update that Link cuts on here. come on snake step it 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 |
Samus, stop. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 179/324 Today's Pick: Link |
Shepard knew how to roll over in the morning Samus this is the worst --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
Samus stealing votes from Snake. lol --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baUY9LFlYh0 - KokorokokoroKOKOROkokoROKokoro-chan iu na http://myanimelist.net/animelist/raytan7585 |

The new rally thread is up, I wonder if it will keep going? --- They don't always think it be like it is, but it do. ~KF~ |

Rally at 10th When it happened against Mewtwo,Draven barely beat him in updates Of course it was after a few hours so most already voted but still |
Every time Samus gets closer to 19% it's the worst update. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
The rally topic matters less as more people show up for the day, LoL will need another source should Snake get rallied. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 179/324 Today's Pick: Link |
The gains are at least getting smaller, which is nice. --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
Okay that's about as good as I can do, I need to run errands now aughaughaugh Anyone who cares: AJ Lee, Konami/MGS pages on Facebook, and Kojima's English Twitter feed are the holy grails. Getting Hayter to tweet again during peak voting would also be excellent. 4chan extensions that I see are /b/res/506114159 and /v/res/209940071. The r/4chan thread (http://www.reddit.com/r/4chan/comments/1mf037/snake_masterrace/) has had nearly 3,000 click-throughs so it also has a lot of potential. --- Welcome to the League of Downtime. |
Nice cut at just before 9am eastern time --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 179/324 Today's Pick: Link |
Now that was a great update. It was entirely Draven falling off so unless he stays there it's not going to hold, but a cut is a cut! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Link Snake Samus Mario Cloud Sephiroth Sonic Mega Man Crono Mario beats Samus directly of course. --- "Thank you, thank you, no applause necessary, just send money..." |
Not the first time Samus has cost Snake a championship! --- Fine! I'll go to the store and get your Goddamn drain cleaner! Character Battle IX Tingle Victory Parade - the journey is over.... |
sounds like we needed that sephiroth/crono/sonic match crono to shock the world --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
From: Karma Hunter | #020 Okay that's about as good as I can do, I need to run errands now aughaughaugh this might be a dumb question but why does 4chan needs its own board on another message board site? so they can talk about themselves on reddit instead of talking about themselves on 4chan? |
PSYCHO CUT --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
samus are you serious augh --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Denzokuken posted... Not the first time Samus has cost Snake a championship! That sneaky woman...always ruining Snake's days. --- I just beat Metroid: Other M, and while I loved the game it turned out to be completely not worth thinking over it for years. |
Delseban posted... From: Karma Hunter | #020Okay that's about as good as I can do, I need to run errands now aughaughaugh It's a board for Reddit people to talk about 4chan, people from 4chan don't go near that cesspool. It's essentially people who buy into the stereotypical /b/ environment from about 5 years so they're big on raids and invasions. Probably the most gullible and easily manipulated group of people for rallies. |
Anyway, if Draven's intake stays where it's been the past two updates, that's the best news for Snake in hours. He can cut against that. Samus needs to get out of here though. She's turning cuts into stalls. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Pretty great update for Snake marred by Samus still rising. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Solid Snake no longer doubling Samus |
Snake needs to cut something like 17 votes an update to catch-up so this stuff won't do. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 179/324 Today's Pick: Link |
This
was always going to be a problem, right from the moment Draven beat Ryu
and MMX. Any final match was always going to involve the gamefaqs vote
being severely split. --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
Karma Hunter posted... Okay that's about as good as I can do, I need to run errands now aughaughaugh Aren't you guys being too proactive with this match to the point that you're organizing your own rallies? I always thought the stats & discussion topic were more like benevolent observers. --- Hentai? I didn't ask for hentai. I asked for anime, you moron. *clicks and downloads* - Hayato118 |
charmander6000 posted... Snake needs to cut something like 17 votes an update to catch-up so this stuff won't do. If Draven stays here, GameFAQs traffic will actually solve that problem by just lifting Snake past that. Samus is just delaying that by taking all these votes. problem is it's wasting time snake may not have --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
And so it begins...just as I'm going to bed. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak |
Okay, that was an update worthy of some celebration. Cut of 39. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Aren't you guys being too proactive with this match to the point that you're organizing your own rallies? I always thought the stats & discussion topic were more like benevolent observers. We hate rallying, but we also hate another site coming in and voting. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 179/324 Today's Pick: Link |
Well, I'm not rallying at all. I'm at least consistent on this point! I don't mind trying to discuss its effects though. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |

Karma Hunter posted...Okay that's about as good as I can do, I need to run errands now aughaughaugh It was when there were actually useful stats to discuss (ie before rallies rendered the contest a joke) --- GT: wgt07 Metroid Prime, Super Meat Boy speed runs: http://www.youtube.com/user/wgtan01 |
If you have a contest on the internet, and it's open to the internet, don't complain when the internet votes. Hi RavenHusky --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 179/324 Today's Pick: Link |
Yeah
Snake is completely beloved on this board. Even Link couldn't mobilize
this amount of support since a good portion of the board hate him even
in spite of being the best hope of beating Draven. --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
charmander was that a response? --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
Not really --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 179/324 Today's Pick: Link |
Is Samus going to make a serious effort for 20%? this is the worst --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |

Hello, but really, if you really didn't want us coming in and voting, you guys should have put some form of restriction on the voting from the start. We have played by the rules that were set out, so you have no reason to complain. |
Hello,
but really, if you really didn't want us coming in and voting, you guys
should have put some form of restriction on the voting from the start. We have played by the rules that were set out, so you have no reason to complain. I have no issue with you voting, it is a lousy way to create stats and discuss it though. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 179/324 Today's Pick: Link |
