So how do you decide if someone is 'better' ? Again you state opinions without giving reasons or evidence.
I'm simply saying that such a vast number of matches will iron out random factors.
Lets look at the evidence..... IamCaffeine our head to head 1v1 all time score is 9-4 nice but not quite enough to show if either of us is 'better' now if the score was 90-40 or 900-400 then yes i'd claim bragging rights if i was so inclined. For my amusement i then checked your head to head v your 'better' player Rockfist and to my surprise discovered you were 11 to 8 up in 1v1 while you beat UrbanJedi 1-0 how are they better than you ? I suppose it is possible they had awful luck but fought like demons with what they had.
As another aside my head to head v Rockfist is a very close 10v9 in 1v1 games.
I think you need evidence to support opinions. This tourney will supply that in spades.
urban jedi is a legend around these parts, put some respect on his name
You could start by spelling it right there is no space in the mighty UrbanJedi

Jedi mind tricks can have a powerful effect on the weak minded. I suspect UrbanJedi may be suggesting to those he plays that he is a great player.

I was proving your point. Lol In no way would I claim to be better than josko, but the stats don't support that. Just as winning thus tourney will go a long way, but not be definitive. Nothing can be definitive
Given that 160 players are playing regularly, I suggest to extend scoreboard until 100 players so that majority of them can see themselves on the Scoreboard. Otherwise lower ranked players may lose interest to join in the future.

I have already been on Top place then dropped down to 7th place, and today I started my movement back to the Top place, by being runner-up in North America (congrats to Keefie for the title!) and raising up to 4th place. Beware Clanlord Carl, I am going to catch you soon

Can you define 'soon'. I have a bad patch right now then a very very promising one coming up. Ill get worried when you are a top three player. Only one guy is within a win of me.

I have six in a row tournaments with at least 8 points each. Therefore I have 62 points in the pocket with possibly more to earn.
From three tournaments that are currently in round 5, I will earn 38, 48, or 58 points. If I earn 48 that will be enough to overcome you soon.

Interesting argument, but sort of assumes that Carl isn't in also in tournaments with points pending.
Also, I just won my first tournament, so I'll assume that means I'm the best in the world.
Lakad Matataaag! Normalin, normalin.

The 1v1 age of Josko supremacy is drawing to its end soon a new age will dawn.
Early days early days so far. I absolutely expect you to be up on me at some point but when the bell toil on tourney no 243 there will be only one winner.
All this bragging about winning the easy maps and we haven't even started on the conquest maps. Look who's leading the field in that section of the Championships I'll be seeing you guys in my rear view mirror very soon.
