Tag ranking just means how well you've done in tag team matches. This isn't a criticism, I'm just scratching my head over here. How is Tank Reaper ranked #1 in the tag ranks while his tag partner Chris Avery is ranked 16th? Did Tank have a run as tag team champion with Jack of Blades while I was away? **The assembled crowd boos Cairo for his brusque demeanor.** What's your problem? I'm just asking a question. That's called "communication", you dumb rednecks. Go take a bath! **The crowd throws shit at Cairo, literally.** |

Has anybody ever come up with a word in their sleep? I know Freud, Sigmund has done it (he wrote about it Die Traumdeutung) and I just did it.

Wins and Losses was the shit.  Yeah I liked wins and losses too. And I don't really understand the tag rankings either, with the difference between Tank and Avery. |

Was there really a need for the change? I thought that the old system was pretty good.

And I thought my memory was bad. Tank Reaper was in tag matches before Chris Avery. Remember Shane Spain?
I already gave the reason for the change; I thought the singles rankings were out of whack.
Since Seth misses them I'll put back the wins and losses, just the same as they were before (because I don't want to go all the way back and count up tag/singles wins separately).

No one is ever going to be happy Carr its your rankings, do whatever you want with them! (I'm going to start posting house show results where Seth Lerch pins everyone on the roster..) |

Seth don't start posting your wildest dreams on the web. That's how you got in trouble with the feds last year.

This may be a DUMB idea and be WAY too complicated for something like efed ratings, but what we COULD do is treat it like sports rankings, where every votes and then based on the final voting tallies, we come up with a final list. This may make more sense than ladder rankings. For instance, the entire roster could vote for, say, the top 15 in the WCF. A first place vote gets 15 points, second place 14, and so on down the line. Then add up the total points. If it sounds like too much of a pain in the ass (everyone would have to vote on a weekly basis to make it work) then we dont have to do it, but honestly I wouldnt mind being in charge of something like that...I could make an excel sheet that tallies the points rather quickly.

Now that is a great idea..but we should have it that you can't vote for yourself because a lot of people are going to think THEY should be #1 or #2 or #3 and so on.

We could work out the exact specifications of it later, such as you can't vote for yourself, but I was just wondering if there would be an interest in something like this before I started constructing the Excel file

Well, #1's and #2 are easy. Obviously.

Well, actually, it would be cool if you put World Champion as #1, then #1 Contender as number two, and then you vote for the next fifteen (or X amount). That would actually be pretty cool.

I think that you wouldn't get enough people voting (especially since it couldn't be an anonymous poll due to the "don't vote for yourself" rule), and as I said my thinking in doing this (aside from the "fun" of it) was to show who is where based on the matches they've had.
Having said all that I have zero problem with anyone else making up whatever new sets of rankings they want to. No reason you can't have more than one going on at the same time. Like it says, "unofficial".

It would be anonymous for everyone except for the person who actually receives the votes, or unless EVERYONE voted for a person as #1 except for the person that it actually was. And I agree wit Tort's idea of World Champion as #1 and #1 Contender (if there is one) as automatic #1 and #2. (Personally I think he is just scared that is the only way he would be voted #1....j/k) But, if we want to start it, I think we need to see how many people actually want this and if we get enough, say 10, that would be willing to vote every week, or we could even make it on a PPV basis, so monthly. Sounds like we have maybe 4 or 5 now...If someone wants to put up a poll and see if there is that kind of interest I think it would be beneficial.

Give me that banner back. You're so undeserving of it, you son of a bitch. Joke or not, Slickie, you don't tell me I'm scared.
I'm just kidding.
Anyways, Yeah, Mikami and Allen are correct on both.

I've always wondered why some people are so obsessed with the rankings. They do offer a peripheral conversational piece, but at the end of the day all that matters is being world champion. You can have rankings up the asshole but you will never be number one unless you're the world champion. Who cares who's number six or eight or twelve? If you're not gunning for that fifteen pounds of gold at the top of the mountain then you're just another face in the crowd.

I was always gunning for the world title when I was on the roster. I would settle for nothing less. I didn't win the title, but it wasn't for lack of effort or desire. Lack of skill perhaps.
I'm not knocking the idea of a rankings system, I just think that people take it too seriously and literally.
