If we leave it as Larson, we'll have something to argue about when we all get old and have nothing better to do than sit on the porch and argue about trivia.

If we change it to the first person, then there's not much hope for us to carry on a discussion in our nursing home days, now is there?

Think of the future. Vote Larson.

If we leave it as is, we'll have something to argue about when we all get old and have nothing better to do than sit on the irc-porch and argue about trivia and how underappreciated the legendary Ranked players of old are and how overrated the new so-called-Legends from the new artsy-fartsy divisions are.

If we just gut unranked, stunty, div-x and ladder out of the top tens and DYK unless people explicity ask for them., then there's not much hope for us to carry on a discussion in our nursing home days, now is there?

Think of the future. Vote Larson. euhm.. Keep the phony records...

People can still choose to only see ranked records in the Top 10's ...

4vs4 even distorts the personal statistics. When I look into my match record, the highest win (7:0) and the highest loss (1:9) are with the same 4vs4 team. The best player I ever had (and only legend so far) came from that team, too.
4vs4 matches are easy consumed fast food, entertainment light.

All of you, you better submit a team for the 5 Stars League now for a chance to take a spot for the 5th season, else, if you want this league deleted, return to your caves because it will never be deleted Razz

Go find yourselfs a useful hobby!

About the top 10 list, I don't give a shit. Like arktoris said:

I think all records earned by avoiding dirty player teams (and other forms of safe team cherrypicking) should be banned from the "did you know" and top 10 list.

With that in mind, Ranked isn't very credible for the stats and awards either so associate them with the other "crap" records. Only records that count are the teams in tournaments. That's where bloodbowl happens.


Oh, and like peikko said:

Trying to restrict what kinda tournaments people like to play in unranked is just something I dont quite get. Selecting specific division in top10 lists is just one selection away, if youre too lazy to do that, you can blame just yourself.

And if you dont know what 1vs1 etc is all about, or if you just think five is too many, you can always join the original One vs One which will start its second season around noon in friday (Fumbbl time) !

I don't understand why people think that the top 10 lists aren't falsely represented by non ranked players.
Just beacause some people don't care about the top 10 lists doesn't mean that others don't. Despite what some people think not all coaches cherrypick with their teams and not all legends are created through cherrypicking.
I think people should be able to play however they want in unranked, but keep the records out of the DYK and the top 10s
