Well folks, here it is, the first Official Emerald Rankings. Now that I'm all caught up, these rankings will be updated every week and posted on this board. For those of you who aren't sure how everything works, it's all listed in the new DoF Rules. Basically, the number of duels needed to be in the Top Bracket is decided by dividing the total number of qualifying duels, by the total number of duelers who fought in them. Bonuses are earned by winning more duels than the minimum number of duels needed to be in the Top Bracket. In the case of these standings, DoF Demon3, lovingly referred to as Imp, has 10 wins. This is 3 more than the minimum number of duels. Imp receives a +2 bonus to his winning percentage for each win over the minimum. From this point on, any outstanding performances or bombs will be noted before the numbers are given. That's it for this week. Good luck and good dueling! RDI Rask DoF AssistantP.S. Remember, you *must* be in the Top Bracket to qualify for this cycle's Diamond Quest.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The RankingsKey: The Diamond is Red The Opals are BlueTotal # of Qualifying Duels: 134Total Number of Duelers: 21 (1 Diamond) (5 Opals) (15 Emeralds)# of Duels needed to qualify for top bracket: 6.4 (7)Rank Name W L T PCT Bonus Modified PCTTop Bracket1) DoF Demon3: 10 6 0 63% 6% 69%2) Goldglo: 5 3 0 63% 0% 63%3) JammerZ33: 4 3 0 57% 0% 57% 4) Druid06: 6 4 1 55% 0% 55%5) WalkerBoh1: 6 5 0 55% 0% 55%6) J Oaknshld: 9 12 0 43% 4% 47%7) Marzan: 5 6 0 46% 0% 46%8) Dex Montoy: 3 4 0 43% 0% 43%9) NovaShayde: 4 8 0 33% 0% 33%Bottom Bracket10) Malefestra: 3 0 1 100% 0% 100%11) Percival: 2 0 0 100% 0% 100%12) JakeThrash: 1 0 0 100% 0% 100%13) KillerBe15: 1 0 0 100% 0% 100%14) BobBraxxx: 3 2 0 60% 0% 60%15) Dark Axe: 3 2 0 60% 0% 60%16) TarlCab0t: 1 1 0 50% 0% 50%17) Kyttn: 0 3 0 00% 0% 00%18) NateRchmnd: 0 2 0 00% 0% 00%19) ShanniCltn: 0 2 0 00% 0% 00%20) TismanBRos: 0 2 0 00% 0% 00%21) Falablah: 0 1 0 00% 0% 00%

Just my .02.....

I believe anyone with an Emerald ring should be allowed in da Diamond Quest come January. Da rankings should serve more ta set up da initial ladder, determine byes, etc, but I say da more da merrier. Last DQ had 18 participants and it was a blast, you can say I'm biased but I'm talkin' about da overall atmosphere. Everyone was havin' fun, and dere was a nice crowd ta hang out with. Also, by excluding da lower bracket, ya exclude dose dat can't
duel some 20 times like me and Imp have. What about Bob? He spends his time callin'...he may not get in as many duels as da rest. And da other callers are Emeralds too, some of dem at least, I don't believe dey should be punished fer helpin da rest of us get in tons and tons of duels. So before ya lock anyone out...perhaps consider changin' da purpose of da Emerald ranks with regard ta da DQ. Danks fer listenin' ta me ramble...

Sincerely,
