Points earned comes from a combination of who you save & how much you save them

That 72.0% is basically the average strength of the characters you support. Since ZSS is who you have most of your saves in, her final standing accounts for a larger portion of your own strength.

Like for me, I save Shulk & Samus about evenly, 19% vs 18%, but since Samus got a much better placement than Shulk did (94% vs 72%) I get more points for saving her than I do for saving him.

I forget the exact formula since I made it up during SMFFFC2, but I believe it works like this:

- Bowser won the contest so each Bowser save is 100 points
- Similarly, each other character's points are scaled to how well that character did by percent
- Ike = 98.72% => 99 points per Ike save. ZSS = 84.62% => 85 points per ZSS save.

Another way to see it is by that percent in the brackets. As you see hylianknight3 has 600 points and an average strength of 100%... that's because all he has is only 6 votes for Bowser and nothing else. You can basically multiply their average % by how many saves they've made total... or you can even find out how many saves they made total by by dividing their points by the avg strength.

# of Martin Saves = Martin Points / Martin Strength
# saves = 44829 pts / 72.0 (avg pts per save)
# saves ~= 622.625

comparing against the actual SAVESTATS that matches up, Martin made 623 saves.
