Mexican beat Lunin and Bob$, went 2-1 with frotaz(I saw the last match) lost to zhu, lucien and bernard. Not to take anything away from him but his wins while great are coupled with some damaging losses(not in the sence that those ppl arent good, but coming off beating lunin and bob$ they are pretty heavy if i must go 80's here).

I like Lucien as a potential as well, He beat Zoap(me too good LOL) Bob$, Frotaz, Mexican and someone else. But again losing to quak hurts.

Of course i blow big time and unless by some miracle i do wonders at scc i see my self slipping into the abyss:(

You guys probably hear this a lot but how does this ranking get rated? I've trying to figure that out for a while now. So how does one get on the list?

{I am not a n00b...maybe in this subject}

You have to prove yourself by beating people at various tournaments in Norcal.

I see my name a lot, I dunno if you guys on the panel know, but I only lose when I don't try.
AKA frotaz says "NO" to "no johns." lol you are good though :)

lol, what can i say? Lucien is just too good. Haha, if you noticed, i lost all 3 matches back to back to back. Once i lose my first match, its downhill from there. I'll get Bernard next time, lol. We always go back and forth, and it was his turn, but next time we meet, it'll be my turn. As for Lucien, i hope i get stages that are more fit for DK next time, but thats not a john, he won fair and square, he's just too good. And as for Zhu....man F*ck Falco! hahaha, jk, lots of love Zhu

Most of us panelists don't really have much of a desire to do another list. Half of the people on the list are playing like their secondaries. We all know Zhu and FTA are the most likely to go up. We all know Isai, King, SS in that order. Blah, blah, blah, etc. Plus even if we did another list why wouldn't we wait until after SCC...

Mexican can have the last spot on the rankings ^_~

Valis is hella good.
In all honesty, if Zodiac Lucien isn't on that power rankings list, and I am, then i don't wanna be on it, cuz he definately deserves it. I remember the first time i played him, i think i 3 stocked him, but that dude has come a long way. In my personal oppinion, he definately deserves to be above me, even if that knocks me off the list. But i think you guys should wait until SCC, i don't know if thats what your doing or not, but then i can prove myself, cuz i requested those days off from work, so i'm there. Lucien, you da man....you cheating *******. hahaha, jk.

Zodiac Lucien FTW!


*edit* ****, sorry for the double post, wasn't paying attention
**edit** You know, i'd be happy just being named best with a low tier, not sure that i am, but i don't know of anybody else good with a low tier besides Simna. There probably are others, i just don't know of them or remember them right now. lol, and sorry simna that i'm trying to take away the title

and ummm that guy who plays link, i think he is like the best. O YEA THE GERM!
Haha, i always forget that link is low tier. I've still never played that dude. I know! I'll play him for the title of best with a low tier. The fact that link is a dk counter doesn't mean anything. haha.

I don't know much about NorCal, but I know Tang is incredible and I don't know why Mexican isn't on the PR

that and the NCPR is made using a process that ranks the players with the best representation and not the actual best players
If by "best representation" you mean the players who best represent themselves in tourney rankings (I know you couldn't possibly mean best representation by panelists on the rankings panel, because we've had that discussion already), then you're correct. There is no way in practice to get the "actual best" players, there are only approximation techniques, and there is no other reasonable way to do that besides considering tourney rankings among other ranked players. I.e. if you don't show up to tourneys where there are other ranked players, then there is absolutely no frame of reference that the panel can hope to measure you up against. But I'm sure you knew that already and didn't post just to start that junk again.

lol well seemed like a post to start that junk again to me :psycho:. Also it's impossible to find the "actual best" players, because the way Simna stated it, is showing that in his opinion the "actual best" aren't ranked on there or aren't ranked properly, and you can't have a correct or incorrect opinion. Basically all the panelists know their sht, so just go to tournaments if you think you deserve to be higher (not directed at anyone).
