hey chris thanks for the move up on the right hand but i lost to maksim twice at nat. i just dont want to be taking spots on guys that i havnt beaten yet You are right & wrong. Maksim should be ahead of you (a mistake on my part that will be fixed). However the "argument" I shouldn't be ahead of anyone I havent beat is feeble. For ex: u are ahead of sylvain despite having a 1 win, 9 loss record against. U also have never beaten Rej (but are ranked higher). Left arm I have a 13 win, 2 loss record vs Mike, yet he is ranked multiple spots higher than. This is because he beat u last 3 times, and u ve beat me last 3 times. You see how it just not that simple. I appreciate you catching my error, thanks. |

That's right Chris, correct that error... I don't mind being pushed down the rankings..as long as it's for legitimate reasons.

This discussion is going to turn ugly fast. I think I should have the right not to have my name used, injured or not. I do not agree with these rankings and never have.

This discussion is going to turn ugly fast. I think I should have the right not to have my name used, injured or not. I do not agree with these rankings and never have. I am fully aware of your feelings regarding these rankings. But for the sake of accuracy, if u are an "active puller" and you fall within the rankings.., you will be ranked. I'm no lawyer, but I don't beleive u have the legal right to have your name removed from what is essentially a list based on result and opinion. However feel free to check on it. |

What exactly Rob do u not agree with? Do u think they are bias? Please give me concrete argument and we can talk about this. Maybe u have a case. I just feel its better to discuss this rather than dismiss it totally.

I do think the rankings are biased. They heavily favor newbies, popular pullers, pullers from the east and pullers with in the hook profiles. I am none of the above. A simple example of this is Tony Brooks has never beaten me either hand. *Correction* He caught me sleeping once last year, but I came back and beat him both hands at the next tournament. Big Tone is all of the above. I have NEVER been ranked ahead of him, he's usually about 10 places higher than me. I like Tony and no I'm not interested in a supermatch, just stating the facts. I pulled every circuit tournament in Ontario last year and I'm ranked behind a bunch of people I've never heard of and I'm sure have NEVER beaten me. Part of the problem is the north and west aren't being accuratly ranked. Chris and Engine are both great and knowledgeable armwrestlers, but that doesn't mean either one of them can accurately rank Ontario pullers.
