NA TDM PR
« on: October 29, 2011, 08:05:13 AM »
Alright, I think I'm going to create an NA TDM PR(power rankings)... Purposeless in some sense, but if done right/fair I think it'll be a cool thing for non-PR'd people to shoot for..=activity+

Also, there's really just not any tourneys to take data off of... Who really knows the pecking order around here, when many are habitually biased/favorable to themselves? lol

It would be a top 10 sort of deal, and a "panel" would decide this. I would select panelists due to their skill/knowledge(ah!/adren/naym if he wants to come to mind), or obvious lack of bias(barton comes to mind), to help me do this; basically the data would come from these people, and our lists would overlap.

Does this seem like a decent idea at all? It's a hard judgement so... a PR could even look like this below:, or I could even fit more than 10 people on the list by actual making actual ties. But I'd rather keep it at 10 and do the closer "ties" like below.

1.
3.
3.
5.
5.
7.
8.
9.
9.

It could also be used to seed for Koth, and any other kind of event. Anyway.. discuss.

+looked into to see if anything has changed about every month
+would be based off of duel(who beats who, but more so who beats/does well v. a variety of opponents.. which correlates with a tournament placing more) - map knowledge / ping, all factors
+and especially based off "TDM"... who is really a good teammate? Who can take control even if he has a bad teammate? who wins the battles for control? 2v2/4v4, map knowledge,
+ i'd want very little subjectivity involved in it, but smarts/creativity would probably be analyzed as objectively as possible by the panel

Did you get this idea from Smash, haunted? ; )

Sounds good to me. Also, this could be a good way to get some of those koth regulars to play the game outside of koth?

It is a good idea, it should create some good discussion.  I like it because it will possibly stir things up in a stagnant scene.  It is kind of a unoffical ladder.
I agree with starting it with only 10, but if that works out you might want to expand it to 20.  That gets more people involved, someone who may not be top 10 may want to see where they may be in the top 20.
I know you stated some of your ideas about what the rankings would be based on, I think there should be a clear understanding of those standards once it is set up.  maybe even post them somewhere.

I wonder what effect it will have on the players who think they are top tier but won't play other top players to prove it.  It will definitely make wannabes take every game seriously and probably make them think about which people they will play.

Off topic,

in terms of active players and consistancy i would go....

naymlis
adren
kickr0
ah! (4th seeing he is a one map player)
haunted
kyuss
senz (have seen senz beat ah! but i think he is a one map wonder too)
vae
bonz
barton
fader


but in all honesty its pretty close between all players apart from mainly naymlis because i have seen each of these players beat the other on the list.

And that is why I wouldn't ask alpha to be on the panel ;)

It was mostly right, though.

Both... I put some info about it in the OP. Tbh, I think it should lean mostly on "TDM"... duel produces more shaky/random results, although it's a big factor. like 60 tdm 40 duel, as far as consideration goes, I guess.

hehe forgot about slugs but he hardly plays anymore. he has defected to another shitty game. as far as i have seen johnson only likes teams, he is a good player though.

maybe you should hold a mini tournament against all players listed in the top 10 to determine their rank
