based on the world rankings


which are BS

Any idea what they're based on? I imagine there's been some discussion in global about it, but I'll be damned if I'm going to wade through the mind-numbing stupidity there to find anything.

I assume the problem with them is there's no weight for the difference in competition between countries. Maybe that could be easily adjusted by using the formula that is being applied for TV money.

Cup results must really be taken into account somewhat heavily, since I'm 7-2 against DFC all-time and I've never finished below them, and I went out of the Cup two rounds before them.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke
Charles: Penn has some good people
A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

We are so on the same wavelength, but I like 'em a bit bigger than that.

Definitely, since I just played a dude in Pakistan who has 2 guys over 4k salary, and he's ranked 1215 in the world due to being #5 in his tiny country.

That's bizarre timing on that change, maybe someone was reading this smack thread? ;)

I'm making a screenshot of this before I make a huge drop from not pulling in a trophy this season.
