Ghosts are against Rudy's morals. He would never make such a thing.

Interesting arguments in this thread.

I don't think it's too much to ask for me to be taken off the list entirely. The point of the matter is: I don't have as much time to dedicate to ORGs anymore. And I probably never will.

Which means I am never going to sign up to play a game again, because I know I am going to suck, and my ranking is going to go down the drain. If I'm taken off the list, it won't really matter, and I can at least give a few games a try.

As it stands now, I am never signing up for an ORG again. Take me off!

It seems to me that the problem is not the ranking, but that you don't have as much time as you used to to play in these. And dropping you from the ranking isn't going to in any way effect the time you have available, which is what is going to reduce your enjoyment of these things. Its your performance in those games that would adversely effect your reputation, not that you're 17th out of 120 or some other random number. And that you do bad in one or two games doesn't suddenly take away the fact that you've been an amazing player in the past and have hosted seven games in the span of 2 years. Besides, its gonna be really tough for you to drop in the rankings a huge deal even if you do very bad in your next game. I did the calculation, and if you finish dead last in your next game, you'll only drop to 9th out of 117 people.

And my previous point stands. If someone has a bad opinion of you solely due to your slot on the ranking, then they're not the type of person who you should care about what their opinion is.

My answer? I'm not dropping you from the rankings.

If rudy is truly refraining from playing ORGs solely because he doesn't want to lose his #2 spot in the rankings, then it is he who denying himself happiness. Its a number on a list, nothing more. I have said from day one that the rankings are there solely for fun and there is no need to take them seriously. Rudy is under no obligation to even open the thread.

Um, while it seems silly to refrain from playing games because you don't want to affect your ranking, I want Rudy to keep playing, so I don't care what he has to do to make that happen.

More importantly, I'm pretty sure he has the right to request that somebody keep him out of their listing. I suppose you could make a free speech argument, but basically it comes down to this: Rudy wants you to stop using his name, so you should stop. No need to be a dick about it, even if it seems silly. :shrug

I don't think I'm being a dick about it at all, I just don't see the point to it. The way I see it, I don't remove rudy from the rankings, he eventually realizes that he's taking the rankings way too seriously and that they don't matter, and all returns to normal. Whether he does good or not in his next game, it doesn't effect him one bit because he's earned his good reputation by years of good playing and hosting, not a placement in a list that's just there for fun.

Me neither, but if it makes him happy, why not do it? It's not hurting anyone else. :unsure:

Agreed!

And you know what would make me happy?

I'd like to officially request that "Mikester" be taken off the ranking list so I can make a new username and try to use that to beat SuperJude in the rankings. It's not hurting anyone except SuperJude (who doesn't even come here), so who the fuck cares?

amirite???

If Mikester is being taken off the ranking list I would like permission to to use the now free nic of Mikester to count as my official nic for alll my previous games so that I can take Gnarls off the rankings list so I can try to use my Gnarls nic to beat Yema at the bottom of the rankings . It's not hurting anyone except Mikester (who doesn't even want to use that nic on the rankings list), so who the fuck cares?

But I am not being taken off the list just switching the credit to a newly free Mikester nic so you will finally be 70.

You know you're a "first generation"-er when you remember seeing King Reilly in a game. :hee

:( I live with the burden every day being the final person to vote King Reilly out of a game. I would like to not think my singular actions were responsible for ending the gaming career of a young lad in the prime of his life but what if they were. What if they were ? I wont be able to wash that blood off my hands like with that dead hooker in Matazlan.
