Darki? Wtf? This kids supposed to be good? Last i remember of him was beating him like 5-0 and he'd bitch about it. Then after id stop playing a few days he'd catch up to me in rank and then ask for a re. He sux.

"A is better than B, although I admit that I have seen a substantially larger amount of A's replays than B's and have very little idea of how good B actually is (or even A admittedly). It may be an ignorant judgment, but hey it's just an opinion and therefore it doesn't matter if it's an ill-informed one. A's play is MORE impressive, but that's somehow different from saying that B's is LESS impressive and therefore inferior."

That seems to be Hasuwar's interpretation of Twitt's comments is. I fail to see why criticism is unwarranted. Why is his opinion on the relative skill of two players any more valid than my opinion of his opinion? Why should people be able to post on topics they have limited knowledge of and not have the weaknesses of their posts exposed?

Oh and I also agree that your analogy to basketball was a pretty weak one.

And about these top P's being listed. I think id be up there if i hadnt of quit.. cuz i remember playing with saddles and big balls (who are considered 2 of usa's best) and ofcourse they're good but back then I was same level as both. Obviously they're probably much better now though after about a year.

But no one knows how good any1 is.

I'm the best zerg outside of korea.

Not a single person on these forums can say otherwise: none of you know how good i am.

Every1 is equally as ignorant about skill as every1 else. You can't not be influenced by the people you play with most. The difference is that most people will value opinions of 'good' players *because they are thought of as good*. It doesn't mean that the good player's RIGHT though.

The guy admitted that he based his opinion off of his own experiences - and you people rag on him for it. The difference between him and the rest of you is that he is *admitting* to his ignorance, while the rest of you are naive enough to think that YOUR not ignorant.

----

These lists aren't pointless because skill is subjective. The only way you can 'prove' ones skill, is to observe their performance. At the same time, we all know that one's performance isn't necesarrily a true reflection of ones skill. ie: i am 2-0 with Trek. But i, and everyone else, know that i am nowhere near his level of skill.

----

On that note, i'd like to add that i think im top 10 zerg in NA. I'm assuming Day is better (because he's #1 on every1's list, and i've never played him). I've never seen Cocoa play, or have played him, so i will give him the benefit of the doubt and put him at #2 (being that he also gets alot of votes). Paul can't not be on the list. He's better than day and cocoa imo, but again, 'i dont know shit', cause i've never seen Day play.

After that, i don't believe there are any top zerg players. So i will put myself somewhere between 4 and 10. (just incase there might be some unknown gosu's).

Look at what I started. =/

Sigh, if you feel that way about what I said, like I told Rek, everyone is entitled to their opinion so you can believe that, but I can continue to believe what I said as well.

theres these morons posting past usa players, when its supposed to be current. Then theres the morons arguing for canada, then theres the morons posting about whos good and who isnt when they are in no position to judge anyones skill. Lastly theres the dipshit who apparently thinks Testie has accomplished alot of things, then he thinks these latin american players will beat me. You are full of shit. Please take your garbage somewhere else. Next time someone makes a thread like this, please explain that it is CURRENt or PAST, and it is for 1 SPECIFIC country.

Also dumbass newbies shouldnt be allowed to post their opinions, as they dont matter and just lead to arguements.

Also morons like veg who are extremely cocky along with being extremely mentally handicapped shouldnt be able to express their opinions either O:

i mentioned having bets through tl.net to Meat b4, but he either didnt see it or didnt care.

maybe he would need a license, not sure.

i love betting though, so we can bet on some games, wcg, etc.
