Ha, I make the Brawl PRs by participating in one tourney, which happens to be the one I co-hosted. Too good.

the point system is only to determine who gets extra money at the end of the ecrc (which I hear isn't happening anyway)
it's not even slightly accurate to determining power rankings
actual power rankings take into account your consistency of play, and much more importantly which people you beat and lose to. your number placement in tournaments has extremely little to do with any of it, unless of course you're placing top 2 or 3 at tournaments that have real competition and when you lose to people that never place well.

i suggest you let the panelists handle the PRs, because you really have no authority to do so.
no offense ^-^

i only did this since the panelists hasnt updated the thread since 2/27/08
and even farther back since the update at 2/27/08 was the player finder

I doubt more than 3 people care about the CT Brawl PRs at this point.
To get an accurate list you need a group of 3-4 people discussing each individual player's tournament results.

And even further back, because theres never been a Brawl PR for the CT thread >_>.
Frankly, I don't think the CT thread should spend the time and effort to come up with a Brawl PR.

when was the last time the melee PR was updated? since i started posting here it hasnt been, that was around december. i dont see why the ct thread shouldnt try to come up with a brawl PR. we've had atleast 11 brawl tournaments in ct so far.
we should come up with 4 people to help out with brawl pr as suggested.

*2nds abolishment of PRs*
I like the idea of PRs in theory, because it does help foster competition I think. But it only works if everyone takes it seriously, and nothing is taken seriously in CT Smash.

I don't care if I'm higher then someone who doesn't care, I'm going to rub it in your face, if you don't care why are you playing competitively?
youd be 10th under the list i made

That point system for the PR is kinda silly. Someone gets the same points for winning that huge esticle as someone who won the small bloomfield tournament. Also I don't like how you get points just for going and losing... I'm pretty sure Cort knows everyone's skill level best so it would kinda fail if he wasn't one of the panelists, I don't see anyone else being as knowledgeable as him though there might be a couple.
In conclusion, I think we should keep the current rankings and just rename it brawl. Shminkledorf at number 3.
Edit: I think Swift is trying to say that CT alone > Tristate area.

I love you......
All kidding aside though, Noodles is making a VALID effort despite what we all think on the game. Brawl is the new game (Ewww, that makes me cringe.)
I think either the Melee power rankings or Brawl power rankings should definitely be updated. (I know its difficult to do melee since there fewer tounies...but I think Brookman, Cort, and Nus could pull something together...they play tons of people.) SPAWN is definitely top 5...without a doubt. His Fox is arguably one of the best in CT right now.
This thread needs some actual discussion now. All we ever do is ramble on about....nothing. I think that Noodles' depiction of the power rankings is actually semi accurate. Cort and Wes are definitely the top two....no doubt. Its very weird to see Chum on the list....wtf?
All of the players on there definitely do deserve to be on that list but maybe not in that specific order. I'd like to hear someone else throw there 50 cents worth in as to WHO THEY THINK should be the top 15. You cant blame him for trying to liven up the thread a bit, no?
Has there even been a Melee tournament all year? Besides ours and PoF's?
EDIT- And everyone MUST play BlazBlue when it drops. EVERYONE.

the point system i used doesnt depict how good people are well enough( though like you said it does a decent job). like nus said, some tournies are really small, so you cant compare someone winning a tourny with 20 entrants with one like esticle (explains the chum part). and placings dont necessarily means whose better, an example from personal experiance is at xesticle. i beat chibo sempi lost to cort then hbk. i placed 33rd while chibo got 9th i got bad luck with brackets. if i were to come up with a top 15 it would be much different. top 2 would be cort and wes (id have to play wes again to determine if im better than him or not ) like you said. honestly though the best way to make rankings is to get 3-4 people like cort suggested. i think im gonna make a social group for it.

You can use a scaled points system, to work around the small tournament vs large tournament thing. Set-up some equation that awards more points to players who place better at larger events. It's what I suggested to Ankoku for his character rankings thingy.
Have something like...
X * (Y/16) = Z
X = Base points (i.e. the points you're currently awarding)
Y = Number of attending players for the tournament you're currently scoring for.
Z = Scaled Awarded Points
Take that 10th estice, for example.
Use something like an Alphabetizer (http://alphabetizer.flap.tv/) to determine the exact number of players who attended, to figure out (Y/16). You get 87 players (It actually gives me 86 results, but I noticed it didn't have a 4th place listed...which was me ;_; lolol). 87/16 = 5.4375. Every point value you award will now be multiplied by 5.4375.
1st 45 = 244.6875
2nd 35 = 190.3125
3rd 25 = 135.9375
4th 15 = 81.5625
5th 12 = 65.25
7th 10 = 54.375
9th 8 = 43.5
13th 4 = 21.75
17th 2 = 10.875
25th 1 = 5.4375
Just keep in mind what Cort said: This is just taking the raw data and using it as a way to determine without human opinion who gets ECRC money. Power Rankings are generally determined using a lot more than just raw data.

*aigh* u guys are being silly right now
those panelist havent played everyone/enuff to kno what skill level people are on
pretty much, and it would have to be a detailed, non scruby conversation
CAPS responses for this one:
yep
In all seriousness, if people are serious about these PRs, then we can do something about it.
melee PRs can prolly be done fairly quickly, since most people dont play.
brawl shouldnt be much harder. i dont play the game much, but even i have an idea as to where people would b
um, excuse me? unless ur talking about brawl....

ewwww, no khaly

Dumb posts are dumb.
I've played with pretty much everybody from around CT (some more recently than others). If you guys wanted to update the power rankings, I could try to lend a hand.
Paul: I totally forgot you exist when I was writing that post. Sorry! I'll suck your ****.
I'd pay money to see a Zoso PR.
