You'll notice in the ST replay thread your name is always correct as is the case in the Season 1 thread =) In the invitation PM I sent, I just copied Gfich's list though. ![]() |

You'll notice there are plenty of other lowercase only names on that list that were preserved. This is not the first time it has happened either, happened in all the Hero Academy tourneys I joined too! |

Hey CombatEX/Gfich, I had a thought about how you are seeding this tournament. It doesn't seem fair that you are punishing some players for not having reached the top 16 yet - presumably, they deserved to be there all along, moreso than people who were eventually pushed out due to the newcomer's ascent. A good example of this is Terenceshiu2005 - he was not ranked in the top 16 until September, and since has climbed to the top 5 players in the world. Yet, you have him seeded at only 12th. I get that this ranking is the "most consistent" players in the top 16, but it seems unfair to knock players for merely not having reached their true ranking yet.
My solution to this would be to weight ranking values according to the currency of the rank - in other words, players should earn more points for a top 16 rank in October than a top 16 rank in August. Right now you are assigning a linear scale: 1st place gets 16, 2nd place gets 15, etc. Perhaps could keep the linear scale but change the coefficient from 1 to 1.25, and then to 1.5, changing by Month? Something like that. If you wanted to be more precise, you should really change the coefficient weekly, but that's a bit more complex. If you think this is a good idea and would like some help, I am happy to help. I have the data already after all. ![]() |

More points for a higher rank times the number times or week at that rank...like adding points in a racing tournament for the grand rankings. The final list would likely be a litlle different. ![]() You don't know me? Let me introduce myself. I am Anonymous. ![]() |

If you decide to include us lower ranked super titans then count me in. I was ranked 32 once and 60 at the last count.
I dream of being a Super Duper Titan! |
