Character Rankings List - Post-March 2010

[metroid1117]

5 Mr. Game & Watch (25 top8, 11 top4, 6 top2, 2 wins) - 202.4 - 6
5 Marth (39 top8, 14 top4, 3 top2, 5 wins) - 197.0 - 7

Why is GW above marth if marth won more, got top 8 and top 4 more??? (by a substantial margin too)

Ankoku also takes into account the number of contestants and the entry fee for any tournament (increase in either -> more points); while G&W has won more tournaments, it seems that Marth has won bigger tournaments.

Woot, ranks are back .

Props to Edo, Nyjin, Kirk, and other Ike users for bringing in the points for Ike.

 

[Zankoku]

G&W players might've won more important tournaments, or there might be a good deal of Marth secondaries which would lead to half points.

 

[Morrigan]

Probably those top2 G&W got were from a HUGE tourney, therefore more points.

Ankoku beat me to it >_>...err, the other guy too lol

 

[Skyshroud]

glad 2 see list is back

But look @ this:

5 Mr. Game & Watch (25 top8, 11 top4, 6 top2, 2 wins) - 202.4 - 6
5 Marth (39 top8, 14 top4, 3 top2, 5 wins) - 197.0 - 7

Why is GW above marth if marth won more, got top 8 and top 4 more??? (by a substantial margin too)

Look at the formula. It accounts for the size and cost of tournaments, since a stronger field deserves more weight.

EDIT: Wow, Sarnath'd massively.

 

[Browny]

when somebody learns to make snakes recovery not blow chunks, and he ends up beign broken too...

p.s. sonic sucks, he only does well in areas that have crappy players to begin with

lol my wins with sonic (the latest one still hasnt been inlcuded :D) dont add up that much to the list at all, each one is worth only like 5-10 points so its not like me playing in a region where the players have questionable skill is affecting the numbers by any decent amount.

 

[hyperstation]

Ganondorf, my old friend, we've fallen on hard times.

 

[Yonder]

Luigi was in B until he dropped?

Wow, too bad he didn't stay there.

 

[da K.I.D.]

ike sucks

and dj, if you win a tourney thats already taking Gdorf and jigglys point and quintupling them both at the same time

 

[Hype]

Anyone want to do the math and figure out what percent of the points MK has to satisfy my curiousity. I'll be forever greatful.

 

[Zankoku]

26.84% of the points.

 

[brinboy789]

ike sucks

have you seen rykoshet or ninjalinks ike?!?!?! freakin crazy a$$ ikes. he doesnt suck THAT much.

 

[Hype]

Kthx

that seems lower than what I would expect from a glance.

 

[Morrigan]

Have you seen his Diddy?

Yeah.....

 

[Kyari]

Oddly enough... Marth and G&W are, in my opinion, right where they should be. Switch Wario with Falco... and the list makes so much sense o.O.

 

[Morrigan]

Indeed, "Overused" fits Wario more than "Uber" does, if you know what I mean

TOURNAMENT: Wisconsin Library Local
LINK: http://www.hartlandlibrary.org/teen_link_pages/games.html (will be updated with top 3 later.)
DATE: November 1st, 2008
LOCALE: Midwest
ENTRANTS: 25
ENTRY: (none) government funded so we couldn't give out cast prizes either.
RESULTS:
1 Nacho (Samus/Zero Suit)
2 Ryan (Bowser)
3 Carl (Metaknight)
4 Justin (Lucario)
5 *lost name* (Fox)
5 Addison (Wolf)
7 Josh (Lucario)
7 Tyler (Ganondorf)

I could have beaten Bowser if Green Green's didn't hate me. I feel good about going even with Metaknight. I've beaten him before, but he has gotten better with him.

 

[Morrigan]

No entry fee means no points =\

 

[Matt07]

Aww, but look a Samus, Bowser, Ganondorf, and a Fox placing, in one tournament!

 

[da K.I.D.]

are you sure, i think it just means less points...

and how the hell do you get a smash tourney to be government funded?

 

[Morrigan]

I'm pretty sure I've heard Ankoku say No fee = No points. Something to do with the formula...

 

[Ussi]

WHY would the government fund it?....

 

[Kinzer]

*Hmph" Dead on in the middle for tourney results and the SBR had the nerve to put Sonic where he currently is on the "tier" list...

Good thing it's for *shot*.

 

[Matt07]

It could've been a fundraiser for government program perhaps?

But I really don't know though.

 

[DRaGZ]

Hooray it's back!

I really don't know, my library just asked to get funding for a gaming tournament and they said yes. Brawl, guitar Hero, Wii sports, DDR, we hold those kinds of tournaments.

One of the conditions was no entry fee or prize money, we do get prizes just not cash.

 

[Col. Stauffenberg]

The formula isn't terribly complicated. In fact, it's right there on the first post. >>

The math behind the list is as follows:
Base values are
1 for top eight
4 for top four
7 for second
10 for first
Base values are then multiplied by number of entrants and entry fee, then divided by 160.

Multiplication by zero = Free tournies are worth zero points.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

Considering you multiply by the entry fee, that means a tourney with zero entry fee is worth zero points.

Well that sucks.

Five of the eight people who toped, including myself, aren't that bad. If other people would have shown up, then the results would have included a (Kirby/Toon Link) and someone maining Random.

 

[Zankoku]

There's two formulas, I use whichever one based on the information available to me.
ENTRANTS * ENTRY FEE / 160
TOTAL PAYOUT / 160

They both give the same number usually, but sometimes payout is more relevant, like when people pay $40 to enter Brawl Singles, Brawl Doubles, Melee Singles, and Naruto or something.

If you can give me the cash value of the prizes I can work something out.

First got about $10 worth of stuff, second got $8 and third got $6, everyone else in the top eight got about $3 worth.

Again it's not much, it supposed to be a free event for the area to participate in. It was one of the main reasons the program got funded in the first place.

 

[Zankoku]

Competition centers around incentive. The greater the incentive, the greater the drive to win. This is why I measure by entry fee/payout.

I agree with this, but they wanted a higher turnout.

Brawl gets older kids, but the other tournament don't. We don't want an entry fee to detour younger kids who want to enter, but can't due to being kids or poor.

I'll leave judgment of it's acceptance to you. If free means it can't be accepted, that's fine. The quoted statement is quite valid in why my local wouldn't work in the rankings.

I'd like it to be accepted, but again, I'll leave it to you to decide.

**** wrong threead lol

The tournament data will be accepted, don't worry about it.

It's just that, when you have +500$ on the line you're gonna play more seriously than a 10$ prize.

 

[paperfairy]

I dunno, with the economy the way it is....

500>10.

That's like basic math.

[Zankoku]

You realize I need to know how many people actually entered, right?

 

[Fatmanonice]

Sonic has as many wins as Marth does? What the fart?!? I call shenanigans...
