I was going to make this TZ inclusive, but I then decided it would be much more fun to do it widely spread as possible. Yes, the topic is rather blunt, but there's a great fair way of going about it. Many of us recognize the alts and inactives still lingering in the highscores, but I'm come up with a solution. Anyone willing to participate (yes, that includes yourself) should message me privately a top 25 player list. It should be entirely opinionated and up to you. I only ask you're as honest as possible.
How the system works
Each player is granted a number of points for their position per vote. If you voted for player A at number one, it would work like this:
- Player A +25 points
- Player B +24 points
- Player C + 23 points
...and on it would go.
How to submit your vote
Send a message to my SP or Enjin inbox, do NOT share it publicly! I want personal opinions about this, and am therefore discouraging working together on creating lists. If you're stuck, just think about it another time. Players may come to you suddenly that you forget. I want to eliminate the amount of resends possible by doing this. Take your time and submit only one final copy.
The deadline is June 27st (EST)
F.A.Q.s
-Why can't I include myself? I know I'm good!
This has the potential to severely offput data and will imbalance results even if you think your placement is honest. It will swing in one direction or another. This will also promote less thought into "how good I am compared to -."
-Who can't I include?
I will not stop you from writing any names down. I will suggestion however, to help me make a more accurate result, is use only the names of current players. Names that may be alternate accounts, players who haven't been online in months, or personal friends you know IRL should be avoided.
-How do we know you won't rig the results?
Because I'm basing it from your votes. If there's an obvious surprise, I will have to explain it. I will have screen caps of PMs and I will give an honest tally. It should be obvious if it was rigged because you know who you're voting for, and since it's popular vote, many of you have an idea of some top names in the first place.
I will have the results posted in the next week, so please get to me before Saturday!
