The SC2K4 SFF-Adjusted Extrapolated Standings

About the SC2K4 SFF-Adjusted Standings

These standings are an attempt to adjust for the influence of Same Fanbase Factor in various Summer Contest 2004 matches.

There were two parts to figuring out the amounts by which to adjust the characters: comparing the affected characters' 2K4 strengths to their 2K3 strengths, and additional constant. This constant was 7.24%—which was the factor implied by keeping Cloud's strength constant across 2K3 and 2K4, and is essentially estimated to be the amount by which Link's strength increased. The method by which I arrived at this constant is rather complicated, but I will try to explain it.
