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. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
Bleh,
beat me to making it. At least it's a neutral intro for once.
Although it took Undertale facing a game you like more than it. --- "This place has a nice view of Hod. And also... I promised someone." - Asch, Tales of the Abyss |
I can't even find a Tumblr rally ffs --- If all else fails use fire. |

If votals keep up this surpasses Link/Draven next update. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
uh, what was the highest vote total ever 25 minutes in |
Still holding out hope Undertale won't kick in the afterburners if Melee gets foolish enough to try and threaten it, huh? --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
The L-Block final had 9221 votes 25 minutes in. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
It's okay, Melee. Just let Undertale get ahead and comfortable. --- NEW YORK METS - 2015 National League Champions |

Woooooooooow --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
uh WHAT. --- Not_Wylvane |
And that update got more total votes than the first 5 minutes of this match. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |

Ok this isn't fair --- www.twitch.tv/Hylian88 www.twitter.com/Hylian88 |
If
Melee wins this match, it better god damn f***ing well win this
contest. That's my one and only concern here. To win like this would be
great. To just die in a final that gets like 45k votes is unacceptable. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |

OK did Undertale just cheat to wi --- satoru iwata |
Undertale had its fun, but it's clearly done f***ing around now. Today it means f***ing business. --- Not_Wylvane |
OrangeCrush980 posted... What the crap even happened with that update? Afterburners. All Undertale wants is victory here. Stand down, Melee, and maybe you don't have to get 60/40'd. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
Undertale throwing haymakers early. --- Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs |
There
we go, that's more like it. Turn Melee into the big underdog here. The
shoe's on the other foot now. Melee will strike when the time is right. --- NEW YORK METS - 2015 National League Champions |
Someone explain that please. --- 9/2/13-The Hero of GameFAQs fought bravely but fell to an unrelenting horde supported by a corrupt tyranny. R.I.P. Hero of Time, 7 time CB Champion, Link |

That bonus match was even more frontloaded than the actual final, but the final vote total ended up at roughly 30000 votes less than the final. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
is that a record did draven or whatever else ever pull in more votes on one update than that --- sig pssssssssssst - http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/568795-soccer-challenge |
LeonhartFour posted... 941 vote update for Undertale Holy f*** that's almost up there with what Draven was getting with the stickied rally in between tournament matches. Undertale could be stronger than f***ing Draven at this point. How the f*** did this happen? --- "This place has a nice view of Hod. And also... I promised someone." - Asch, Tales of the Abyss |
UltimaterializerX posted... Alright Leon, you win. You were right the entire time. Feels good, man. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |

Wait did that just happen |
HAHAHAHAHAHA Mettaton NEO it is. |
WHAT THE f*** --- Anything is possible when your man smells like Old Spice and not a lady. |
So how long until the site crashes? --- Video game companies don't care about you, so stop kissing their asses |
Hmmm.
I've been a pretty consistent Undertale supporter, but I can't help
but wonder if some stuffing was going on there. The more likely
explanation is that one of the tumblr rallies started taking off, though |
