I lold

On a serious note we should start gathering tourney results since end of august is time for a new update. Nll will be the last one used unless there's one more in sfl

I'll work on it when I get home today. I'll also resurrect the tourney scheduling thread so we can go with it starting September. I'll also link to any weekly smashfests fl hosts

Also it should be discussed now how wins/losses count. If there was more agreement about it then regions wouldn't feel the need for regional based rankings. I'm willing to aim chat with other panelists to come to a feasible agreement. It's crucial for the unified goal of Florida to grow larger and get better

I thought it was gonna be SFL rankings and CFL rankings. I mean, your region went ahead and made their own. :3

lol i'll have no part in CFL only rankings. I think its dumb

lets just make the rules for the FL PRs more agreeable, to which then there wouldnt be a need for anyone to feel they have to make regional PRs

I'll talk it through with whatever panelists the biggest gripes are. since im in CFL, i hear about the gripes the most

top 15? i dont think is necessary, not for the amount of players we have in florida

although honorable mentions could be brought back. like 2-3. they dont get art though :laugh:

Edit: the point is that you could have top 100 but if the rules in which the PRs are made are bad, then it wont matter.

No Top 15. No Honorable Mentions.

We don't need players settling for second fiddle. Rankings/Honors should be given in few to maintain the true essence of value and merits it's supposed to have.

its discussion like this that should be had so we arent wasting the entire month of september talking about it. It should honestly be something so universally understood that discussions every 4 months shouldnt really take more than a day

I'll be a panelist for CFL for the sake of getting this right. who are the others so we can talk about this

So then why have the CFL PRs at all?

edit: oh ****, I thought I was in the CFL PR thread when I posted this.... oh well it still make sense
I don't have any control over that, nor do I have any part of that. I also don't necessarily have a problem with it either.

With that said, I am in favor of a unified system. If that wasn't the case, I wouldn't have gone to SFL this past weekend when there was a CFL tourney as well.

Florida has enough talent to give a top 15 PR and have it be accurate.
The panel is responsible for producing an accurate pr. This should mean they are responsible for all things deemed subjective. Like it or not there is no way to eliminate subjectivity from a PR system.

We are a relatively large state. In my opinion i think a state wide elo system is the best way to go. I have felt this way for a long time.

I would like to be included in the making of the next FL PR, but only if my fellow FL smashers recommend me.

If my fellow smashers feel i am qualified to work on this let me and the rest of the players know. Thanks

There really isn't that much talent. Top 15 cheapens actual accomplishment.

I find it inappropriate to use an Elo system using tournament matches to determine a ranking (esp. in the way you're describing). You may run into a problem of people purposely selecting opponents by not traveling to certain regions (I know some of you new players are really desperate to be "recognized"). Another problem is point inflation overshadowing less active yet skilled players. If a new or old player jumps in at the end of a period it is unlikely for them to even scrape a lesser position (regardless of the K-value, skill or accomplishment). You could have a bonus point system which has its pool increased over time, but still.... Is all that trouble really better than educated, top players subjectively discussing "skill" with placements and match-ups displayed as evidence?

I'm not gonna be in either PR because I'm not gonna be in Florida :(

I wonder if I would be #1...probably not.

Well Eric its based on past 4 months so you should still be #1

Also we don't have enough players to truly warrant an Elo system statewide that wouldn't be widely skewed

Top 10 is also fine. We don't need 15.

Matt unfortunately since our community doesn't have the size of players sponsors notoriety or size of spectators like SRK community, things like a PR are needed to motivate the players to get better so they have some tangible number to go by. It's because srk has all those things that they don't need a pr which is where you're coming from

It's a necessary evil...and if one day we got lucky and got as big as other fighters for the next smash game then we wouldn't need them anymore

Well I mean...

I think I now have a losing record to 8bitman (IDR the last time I played him if it was before or after the season)

I have an even record with Xaltis/Shaky (Or I have a losing one to Shaky, but I think even. Yeah...2-2)

And I beat everybody else.

Id have to look at everything...if anything your losses just make wins against those people worth more but off the top of my head you'd be first

Either way you'd be on the pr :laugh:

Gotta disagree with you there GDX. Esam has losses against non ranks even though he has like even records with them.

Seibrik on the other hand has only 1 non ranked loss that recently just happened iirc. I think he will probably be #1
