You didn't use any of those qualifiers before, so not really.

He wrote about Flash, should Flash not be #1 despite it being so obvious because he did something more than "Don't even try to argue this one," ? Heck, one of the ones you argued (Jangbi over others for 10th) had the smallest explanation. None of it makes sense or really applies.

It was a thoughtless, rude, and frankly wrong comment. That's the long and short of it. You were trying to be snide, don't pass it off.

Shame you weren't around when JWD was making ranks. You'd have LOVED him.

Hmm, I think it's pretty pointless to argue with you about my intent in my own post.
I'll just leave it at this. I won't discuss this issue any further since it's going nowhere.
If you are not Bisu, chances are I hate you.

Intent has nothing to do with the logic behind an idiom, but okay.

I do not know about JWD but I remember a couple of years ago, there was a PL writer that hated Stork. I don't know for sure though if it was a writer or a frequent poster in PR.

JWD made ranks with really, really short descriptions, iirc

Lightwip somehow believes that if he says "A-->B" and then says "but I didn't really mean B" then he's somehow innocent of everything. Lol

Nah, JWD had love affairs with ranking SKT players higher than everyone else and one month he knocked Flash from 5th to off the rank completely for going 5-1 (all in TvZ) and his reasoning was "Flash's TvZ is too weak right now."

Those were the days.

Wow Lightwip was like the lone T1 icon around this thread who gets bullied by a bunch of Rolster icons. Geez, i realise he was too tactful with his initial post, but he made another post later to clarify that he didn't mean to come off harsh. Wouldn't have killed you to actually read the 2nd post, rather than ignoring it completely and shoot him down basing solely on the first one, you know? >.<

On a more serious note, Free for #1 next PR? o.O
Look. Only Forward. See. Only Victory.

I responded to his posts as he made them, not sure what I'm ignoring.

He's mad that a KT player is ranked high and that SKT players are not ranked higher. It's to be expected, the main problem was how he went about it.

Stats at number 2... ohwells

jaedong needs to buck up with his signature jvz and zvp, i need to see you at top 3 again

on the other hand killer needs to buck up too :/ hes been looking pretty weak even though he supposedly won the inhouse ranking matches.

team 8 is on an unlucky streak i guess

Awesome to have PR back! As a JD fan tho, I do think you are being a little lenient on him, his play looked pretty poor to me this past month, but otherwise well argued on everyone else

i didn't say he didn't deserve the number 2, just that i don't like him and that doesn't mean i don't acknowledge his record

Those were the days.

Correct me if I remember wrong, but didnt Flash in those games beat an absolutely horrible July 3-0 in GOM and bbs effort in a game that didnt mather because Flash was already out of the OSL? Also he had just dropped out of both OSL and MSL because of TvZ (granted vs jaedong\yarnc who was great ZvT + kwanro), and during those days he just couldnt beat any of the dragons TvP. Sure he could beat everyone else TvP, but everytime he faced one of the dragons he lost + he had just lost a few ace matches iirc. So while it maybe was a bit harsh removing him totally from the list it was during a time when it looked like Flash would not win anything anytime soon despite his incredible talent. Obviously he proved us all wrong when he went into godmode shortly thereafter, but for a while there it looked kinda bad for him being unable to beat the best ZvT and PvT players.
