First of all, don't double-post... And second of all, this is not the place to plan SmashFests. It doesn't help that both of your previous posts are off topic, either.

Do this here...

Come to the tourney on the 23rd Qraq, there will be more Melee than you can handle.

Im only here from the 1st to the 15th on business.

Due to UST no longer hosting Brawl, the eligibility rule that one must attend at least one MA/UST has been abolished. Therefore, anyone that has not attended any Brawl tournaments at MA/UST in the past, but has entered Brawl at any ToF from 9 and beyond (which right now, is only ToF9), is now eligible. As of right now, the only person that is affected by this is DZLE. Funny how the very first ToF that Final missed was the first one that counted towards this.


Anyway, another issue at hand is a Melee Power Rankings. How would people feel if, for the time being, I put up a Melee rankings (with top-5 only) based tournament results with some tweaks as needed (which I will explain). Later, we can form a panel, if desired.

Okay, so here are the results of the last 12 Melee singles tournaments, with all OoS players, at that time, omitted from the rankings (thus bumping everyone below them up when applicable):

Since laozy/Phil's result is a little scewed due to only having one recent attendance and the rest really old, he shouldn't be on the top-5. So with that, I think the following rank is pretty accurate as for right now:
1. Perfect Chaos
2. Sexy Yaz
3. X
4. FoxTheStampede
5. Lada

What do you guys think?

 

[vazor]

What do you guys think?

I think Yaz needs to MM FtS, and Gojira needs to MM Lada.
Seems okay to me. I'm curious why Gojira or Minato didn't get 5th- though I guess Minato is out anyway due to moving-ish. Oh and Minato's AVG isn't higher than Lada's. Ok. But still, for Gojira, how many out of the last 4 do you need to attend for your last 4 AVG to matter? Just more than one? When does AVERAGE matter? Maybe a little more detail on the thoughts behind this would be good.

Overall, I approve of posting any melee power rankings. :D

 

[C!Z]

Kevin is definitely better than Zach, no hard feelings intended

 

[Minato]

Gohan error on PC.
You mispelled Gojira.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

When I look at that list skill-wise, I think it's pretty accurate as well. But Phil is way to inactive to be placed, but if he'd actually show up more, he'd have a good shot at top-5
Total Average shouldn't be taken too seriously, since it's actually not averaging every tournament from the very beginning. And even if it is, way old stuff should be taken with a grain of salt, so the Total Average is just there to general reference.
Yaz and FTS never entered the same tournament, so that's a problem, but just a minor one. ALL of the tournaments Yaz entered had more people than ANY of the ones FTS entered, yet Yaz still manage a higher average, so there shouldn't be any doubt in that match-up. Personally, I would think the Yaz vs. X match-up on the ranking to be the closer one. Their results tend to flip-flop, and I personally have more trouble against X than Yaz, but Yaz has obtained the upper hand in tournament results recently, so for now, I think Yaz deserves the higher spot.

 

[lanky_gunner]

I think it would be nice to have a Melee ranking, considering now we have two seperate tournies for both games. I'd say go for it.

Nice, yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for detailing all of that, it's good to hear the reasoning and have a strong first PR. Post it already! ^_^

 

[Perfect Chaos]

I'm planning to give it a day or two to hear more people's opinions on it. I'll be at PnT this week, so I can get some feedback there. There's really no need to rush it too much if we've gone so long without one already.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Well, after a little over year and a half without a new Melee Power Rankings list, I decided to put this one up. Now we just need an official separate panel for Melee and a separate system of regulations for qualifications, update-intervals, etc. And hopefully, Melee will still be active enough for this list to be updated periodically (probably not monthly like Brawl's, though).

I have an idea who would be willing to be a panelist, but I'm going to ask anyway: who's interesting in being a Melee panel member?

Also, suggested to aforementioned regulations would help, too.

 

[wangston]

I'll be a melee panelist. Joke for best in state.

 

[Ken Neth]

Joke's a joke.

 

[lanky_gunner]

If any of the Brawl panel members are going to be just part of the Melee panel, I'll be a Brawl panel guy if they'll let me.

 

[philbobjoe]

I'll be a melee panelist. Joke for best in state.

I thought that was obvious.

 

[slave1]

the good slave is gone now

 

[harpuia190]

what do you mean now?

 

[Ken Neth]

He is now the bad slave.

 

[DZLE]

Melee Panelist.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Updates!!

So the Brawl Power Rankings have been updated!

Also, FoxTheStampede has been taken off the Brawl Panel, and lanky_gunner has taken his place. (Lanky, I would advise you to get MSN IM, in case we do an IM panel meeting in the future.) Also, lanky_gunner did NOT get to vote on this list, FYI.

Also, the regulations regarding how many missed tournaments until one is considered "inactive" has changed, due to there only being 1 tournament per month now. Now, instead of not missing four tournaments in a row (in a time frame of 2 months), it is now not missing three tournaments in a row (in a time frame of 3 months).

__X__ looks like you need to step it up.
