Stats don't really work that way. The more of them you have, the more accurate your final data is. The question is whether you want the TLPD ELO to be as accurate a description of the players as possible, or whether you simply want it to reflect their performance in Kespa sanctioned matches. Since the latter is an entirely artificial construct, it only makes sense to include as much data as you have. Mining every last unofficial game is obviously impossible, but since you've got a whole league of games already there it can only make your stats more accurate to include them. The only reason not to would be if you believed in some sort of magical force which altered the physical capabilities of the players when they were playing under Kespa's umbrella. So long as we are content that Stork playing in the GOM studio is the same Stork which attends Proleague, the MSL, the OSL, and who plays in Khan's house, then the choice is pretty clear.

Doesn't this decision take away a lot from YellOw's legacy? We all know him as the "Special Events King", who knows how high his numbers could be if they were counted. If the reasoning is that those special events that YellOw won aren't counted because other players competing in them weren't serious about it, should you legitimize a league/tournament that didn't even have the participation of elite players from 3 entire teams?

Sure you want as much data as you can get but the data won`t be accurate of the players aren`t trying. I`m sure some players put more effort into one league than another and those leagues seem to be kespa sanctioned.

They didn't have participation because those 3 teams are all interested in seeing GOM fail.
And you cannot seriously be comparing GOM to - say - Blizzcon, or King of Kings events?

I don't really know what I think of it. Though I do have to agree with adding the GOM leagues into this, I don't like how my two of my favorite players who were #1 and #2 dropped down and submitted to... Flash.

Yes, JD has the same ELO Peak with or without Gom S1 or Gom S2.

No, that was the showmatch that caused JD's peak to drop, Adding Gom S1 had no impact on Jaedong's peak.

How is his peak not affected even minimally. he played some(a lot) games there. Was it the same 2343 before change? Since he won s1, and it wasn't 10 years ago it should affect his every elo number after his every match since s1.

The only noticeable change is to his ELO peak vs P and vs T but nothing in his overall.

I agree.

If you are going to count Gom tournaments, you should also count other large non-sanctioned tournaments towards results and elo peak. It's only fair.
I'm talking about things like the 256 man tournament where Jaedong beat Jangbi, and that old Ghem TV tournament where YellOw beat Nada. The TLPD crew is going to have to do a lot of digging.
