How the hell am I ranked above Lorax, you, Jerk, katy, and Garm? You guys pwn me regularly. I should be down more with Garm and console, who seem to kill me a bit more than I kill them. :lol:

:o That's my mistake. I went back and looked, and you really have 137.5pts, ranking you at 48th. I must have missed one of your ranks on the lists.

How I got your rank, if you're curious:
| +
27+35+31 = 95. (Numbers for each rank on 3 out of 6 lists.)
95/3 = 31.66
31.66*3 = 95 (Using the average score to fill in for the missing data from the 3 lists without you.)
95+95 = 190.

PS: I realize that there's basically an unnecessary step there when I divide by 3, and then multiply by 3 right after, but it works out differently if a person is on 1/6 lists, or 5/6 lists, etc.

Okey dokey, I really think the only thing that will advance this is people making more lists for a larger sample size though.

Waflz doesn't even play anymore.

Fusion above Saberdude and Gaara?

DJ above me and Chink? Duo below Chink?

Supra above loldino?

Laser below svail and pipe?


All of these are wrong.

Two things:

First, can we make some sort of page for the rankings? Like the maps page.

Secondly. Your system has one flaw, Magyk. I haven't been ranked yet (0 points) which would put me on the top of the list. :P We all know that's not true. ^^

Magyk, Lord and Ghoul are the same person :P

As are Sith and rs sith xD

It's very interesting that those of us who have known him longer (and refer to him as Ghoul), rank him significantly higher than those who only know him as Lord.

The thing about these lists is that people won't be bothered to change their own individual lists, so maybe we should have a ranking discussion once every month. This could even be done by PM, maybe Magyk wants to take care of that and collate results. I don't know if this is possible but I have an idea that it could be done by a forum poll, and you have to vote on every single sieger to see where they rank.

This whole system has a bit of a flaw, too. Some people have only been put into 1 or 2 lists, so their average is sometimes really high when it shouldn't be. For example, Gaara.

Well, once we have a nice base, we can then adjust the Master list as a community.
