Having a team vote on would a) lead to hours and hours of debating over who goes into the positions of 4-10 b) end having an executive decision probably being made and we'd probably see Dj's result anyways  Overall i like it alot | ||

At least, when i look it that way, it makes more sense. There were a lot of people saying Sea or GGPlay were really on fire and able to win the last OSL, they had impressive records, Bisu showed excellent performance in group stage too. And MSL, despite its excellent players pool, was a bit disapointing. Ra lost to Boxer really easily in a game everyone was waiting for, Silver got far but his wins were not spectacular at all and in the end, Savior as the monster he is, came and crushed everyone. In terms of show, OSL was better, so i guess OSL players got rewarded for that! | ||

Whatever.. i dont mind the rankings at all, especially cause it's not even the question if the ranking is accurate or right, after all it's only the creators opinion, so i dont even know why we should all discuss it, you can barely change someones mind.. | ||

but you bash some players for not getting results, and you put anytime over NaDa who is exactly getting results. His way to the final was easier, sure. But he won when it matters, against anytime (who we agree is a monster P). Too bad you cant use DTs in all games in a bo5 series lala. ps: im smarter than you : D | ||

Edit: a lot of these quotes had positive remarks as well, i just selected what i thought showed a problem.

seriously, it's very difficult to set up a rating like this, especially the places 5-10 are not easy to rate | ||

nada is twice the player anytime is though. you're only putting him as number 2 because youre a protoss fanboy and protoss players like to overrate their own kind. im almost surprised reach isnt on this list. if manablue wrote it he would be | ||

On November 22 2006 07:52 CTStalker wrote: I think you should compile the flames (posts and, if any, pms) and categorically mock them Oh, that's the plan. For now, however, I feel as if I have to clear up a glaring misconception regarding this feature: my personal opinions--as far as playstyle and entertainment value of a player--play a truly minimal role in how I rank the players. Obviously some bias is going to seep into the listing, because that's the nature of being, well, human, but I assure you that I am doing my best to give an objective list. I rank the players first; the snarky comments come later. I do, as I noted in the news post, examine much more than statistics. I look at what leagues those statistics came from, who was playing whom, what map was used, and my own assessment of the level of play. It's not science, by any means, but it should be pretty accurate. That said, let's consider the case of Ra. Many people claim that he doesn't deserve to be #9, and for now, I'll concede that point. But does he belong in the top 5? Not. A. Chance. Consider: he only advanced from his MSL group because Boxer joined the army. Otherwise, he was eliminated. He's not even in the OSL (and he didn't make the ODT this season, either), and KTF is an absolute joke in the Proleague this season. So are you really quibbling over whether he should be #6 or #9, or are you just angry over me not liking your favorite player? That is bias. I can concede that maybe some of you would rearrange the list a bit (Nada before Anytime, most notably) or add a particular player or swap one with the other. That's just the nature of something like this; differences will exist. But if you honestly see any glaring flaws, I would encourage you to do a bit more research into why you feel that way and, evidence existing, share those reasons with me. | ||
