I vote Pyrolooserkid should be pre-emptively banned from this thread.
Also guys, lets try to keep out the "trollian/bend over and I'll show you" **** out of here as well.

Spam in the GTA thread, and the bi weekly thread if you must...

Don't start **** simply because you don't have enough interest to try to start a conversation in this thread. Posting about the PR is part of what this thread is about dumass.

Either talk to me about the PR, or shut the **** up. I assure you that the previous post I made wasn't created to aid me in my post-spam vendetta. I really am excited to see changes. Stop being ********.

Coolhat should be moved up more. The 5th, 6th, and 7th PR spot holders haven't done anything as specular as Chris has the last couple of tournies.

He has a good singles record. He beats alot of the characters a Luigi normally shouldn't be able to beat. He beat Nate, Noah and god knows how many other good ranking PR rankers. He's also almost beaten me in a few friendlies. His Luigi is **** good.

The players in the 5,6,7 spots haven't really proven themselves (at least in tournament play and set wins) against some seriously tough opponents. It is that which compels me to say:

Chris for much higher.

I think at the next bi-weekly we should take the time to actually watch matches of people that seem to be getting better and better.

I.E Ken, Chris, I.B, Ambrose, Nate.'

EDIT: Before I forget, Chris is also a beast with Adnan in teams. IIRC, teams placing and set wins play a role in determining PR standings? Btw, when I say set wins I don't mean number of, I mean wins vs. a good team.

Trust me when I say that Chris is pro, IIRC I made a post saying that he'll be going up a lot higher if he keeps it up

Ummm, the first part doesn't make any sense, seeing as We ARE those players who Chris is proving himself against in that respect so......
Aaaaaand have Me, Imadh and Ambrose reeaaally not proved ourselves against 'some seriously tough opponents' before? I mean saying **** like that is throwing our records out the door.

Brackets can also mean a lot,I mean ****.... last tourney I had Vwins second round.

And as far as teams go, him and Adnan are a really good team..... but every person ahead of him consistently gets farther then him in teams so that kinda kills your point. ( I know this because I've been the one elmininating them in like every time we meet up in brackets except for one time.)

To add to nate's team arguement, me and nate have consistently beaten chris and adnan and placed high in doubles. Me and GK beat nate and ryan in a doubles match aswell, we also came really close to beating bernard and noah in doubles.

So basically you're saying that you've only won a set(s) against a team with only 1 ranker on it

ambrose and his variety of really good characters is amazing but i still cant seem to understand why he is above myself and ken

And, people keep bringing up "their PAST records" PAST, PAST, PAST, PAST, PAST

past being before i would say SoS or caketown. Stop livin in the past!!! We must move forward! not backward! Upward! not sideways! and keep twirling, TWIRLLI.....ya

I agree that the PR should be more heavily weighted towards your current record in recent tournaments, and less so about stuff that happened months (or longer) ago. It's about how we all rank up currently, not 6 months ago, right?

Chris beat Noah and Nate. Adnan and Chris (a team with only 1 ranker on it) gave ALOT of people trouble. They took out every team at the bi-weekly at Matt's house in which they teamed. I think it was there...they beat every team except me and ryan i think. Someone correct me?


Ambrose is good, I play him alot. I know he's good...but he hasn't done anything spectacular in singles or doubles for his spot on the PR to make any sense.

As for Nate...notable persons he's beaten? singles placings recently? i know your in NNR, but your unnaturally high on the PR. Seeing as the people below you do somewhat better in singles than you do most of the time.

Don't get misinterpret my text though. Nate I know your a good Jiggs player. You give me trouble all the **** time. I'm sure alot of the GTA smashers can vouche as well, you have a sick Jiggs. Its just that your tournament placings don't justify your PR position well enough for it to make sense. Just like Ambrose's placing.

This isn't personal, I'm not flaming you or w/e. I'm just throwing out some topics to discuss.

Nate what exactly is your recent record working like?

Also, this "omg i beat him ages ago" bs is getting really old. I used to never beat Imadh. I used to never beat Andy. I used to never beat Grmo. I never beat Mike. I couldn't beat you. Now I usually win against all of the listed above. People change. People get better. The PR should be reflective and considerate to the people getting better and how they are right now and NOT favour insanely old tournaments. No other PR does that, no professional PR does that (in sports using a 2-year-old tournament is major lol and they cap it at i think in tennis 6 months? about that) and I find it staggering that we do that.

Finally, I'll vouch for Imadh by saying that he placed a hell of a lot higher at Starfurry, consistently places higher than Nate and beat Noah. I'll also vouch for Ambrose for the same reasons and that he beat Ryan. If he doesn't go up he should at least stick.

I knew this would happen, but I thought it would happen earlier after starfurry.
Starfurry is probably my worst singles placing ever since my first tournament.
I had the choice of giving myself a hard bracket where I get to face Vwins second round, aka an auto loss, or I could have inserted myself into 2 other (much easier) bracket spots , but I wanted to face the best player in Canada in a real bracket match so I did so. Getting that kind of match was more important to me than the critisism I'd get down the line.

Everyone is talking about how people 'get better' like I've just been getting worse this whole time, for instance David how have our matches at your place been going?
That never used to really happen before, looks like someone has gotten much better over this downtime.

Anyways If I'm really under so much fire then I'll just step up to the plate. I've already argued my own points enough that its useless continueing, the best way to solve everyones problems/concerns is at the next bi-weekly. Which I know we're all hoping is the 20th... ( Try to make it happen David?)

I'm not interesting in arguing man. I just wanted to discuss some things i had on my mind.

So you, of your own accord, chose to get owned by Vwins? I didn't know that. We can choose where we get placed? Or is it just because you like make the brackets and stuff?

Regardless, my reasoning has nothing to do with your Starfurry placing. I don't even know how well you did there.

Collectively though, your placings don't justify your PR ranking. Its not your fault either, seeing as this same thing happened to 2 other members on the PR as well. Its just the people who update this thing, NOT CHECKING SINGLES PLACINGS and awarding ranks based on...god knows what. What crew you're in?
