You acknowledge that WIS is not going to buy it so why don't you go peddle it to ESPN or Sporting News or some media outlet in Europe? You have been harping on your rankings on these threads since 2004. I can site the archives to prove it. I still post the links here, I'd like to think the belligerence of those 2004 and 2005 threads are things of that past though...however threads like these have shown me when I get riled up, and sometimes its not pretty. If you are hoping to gain majority support for another sales pitch to WIS, it's not happening. If you believe that everyone here is against you and that you are beating your head against a wall then take that as a clue. I think there's still room to enjoy these in an unofficial realm. Part of me still wants to get past this colonels hatred thing and I'm really rather surprised at the amount of "ANTI" sentiment I've seen here. I know I've been a dick, sarcastic, and otherwise but my goodness.

There are better keyboard systems than the QWERTY that never broke into the market. There are better automobile designs that can't break into the market. There are hundreds of examples of ideas that "may" be better but the status quo is too well established. Just accept the fact that your ranking system - however good you think it might be - is not selling here. Give up already will ya? Fair enough, but I think we can still see things like the OTR and see how they work out here...if nothing else but for fun and for those that want to participate....I mean who doesn't want to be the best in my eyes? lol

This is not intended as a personal attack. Understood, this is well written and not even close to a personal attack. You are probably a good guy in person but the constant arguing, name calling, and sarcastic remarks are way past getting tired. Agreed, I went to bed last night thinking...what the hell am I doing on there. Fortunately or unfortunately, I like a good argument. Spend your energies on you tube or wherever. It will be time better spent in my opinion

No one is personally attacking you at all. I think you misunderstand sentiments for your ranking system and what we see as not taken in account for.

Put up or shut up. I am never going to stop saying this when you write a post from now on. You just seem to try and skirt around the topic of actually showing us your ranking systems in HD.

People are willing to give you your info you need and you can show us how great you say it is.

Right, I hope you understand that what I'm asking from people is just their teams...not entire conferences or anything. This initially was something I just wanted to do with my team, however I intend to compile a couple other random teams per season as well perhaps.

Why not do every team. A couple teams out of context is not a way to go. Its like saying okay were going to rank teams 1, 4, and 9 but not worry about what happens with the rest of the 10.

This would cause skewed results in the end and would not prove anything in the end as it would not be complete. You talk about a 1 game season does not exist. Well by trying to only have a couple teams it is a simliar argument.

All or nothing, show us what your system is about.

Get me the data then....I'm not inputting 10000 scores manually because you think I should...if that invalidates the process, then too bad.

I said make up the spread sheet and pick your world or we will get another one. It has been said in the past for you to make up the spread sheet you need! All you do is say that you will put it together down the road and still have not said you have one. Once you do we can get a group of guys together to give you the spread sheet you need with our conferences.
