This "ranking" is going a bit too far for no reason. Why make game against another tier ?? Just to proove u're better and can get in another tier ? You cant determinate this by only one game. BTW i think tier 1 to 4 will be good. Keep this threat active

Koush and ninki in one committee, not in this demigod world

However it would make up for interesting tier results.

That was my thought as well.  Just having people with the exact same opinion of player talent in the committee will result in their POV, right or wrong, being more dominant in the rankings.  So, if we look at players talents from multiple angles, hopefully we will get a more accurate picture.

I still say we're in a good spot with not being able to view old replays.

I think all the decisions made should be off new replays so it shows current abilities. I don't think anyone should just be moved without a current one.

But that's just me.

Nice quote.  I actually found out how to upload them.  But I can figure out why all my uploads are not showing up when I go to watch them.  Any expert that can help would be awesome and very appreciated. 

 

Thanks

 

 

The End.

 

 

Edit:  I know I have them in the right folder.  Documents---> My Games ---> Gas Powered Games ----> Demigod ----> Replays ----> eat my shorts

 

So I stick them all in there then try to go to the demigod game and watch them and all that is in there is a my last game replay.  I am totally lost.

^If anyone on the team picked random then it doesn't work or something like that.

Oh and also because of the new patch you can't watch older replays, but it's not like I tried.

Polynomial posted a walk through a while back.  Check that out and see if it helps - http://forums.impulsedriven.com/364799

We generally use gamereplays to post our replays.  One thing with their system is that sometimes (might be all the time) you can't post the replay if someone went random.  I'm not sure, but game replays might need some sort of minor update to support the latest version of DG.  If someone wants to try to post any replay from the latest version of dg, let me know here if you had any issues and we'll see if we can get someone to sort it out.

And you can almost just upload a replay to any site that supports free downloads, but gamereplays offers a better interface.

OK.  It is because all my replays are old except the one from yesterday.  I'll just post that one up.  Thanks.

Here is a replay from yesterday (after the patch)

 

http://www.gamereplays.org/demigod/replays.php?game=51&show=details&id=128532

 

 

Edit:

 

Forgot to put.

 

 

The End.

 

 

Edit 2:  I did a little bit different of a build with my UB.  But it was because bron was a shield using bastard oak.  lol.  So I wanted to be able to confuse him with 3 points in foul grasp.  He would normally wait to shield this way I could knock his hp down low then grasp him for enough to kill him with a bite.  There were also a few key movements like when they took our flag on the bottom right.  I did a little elaborate plan to get it back.  

 

PS: this is def. not my best game.  But I want on that fing list.

@brandon

in my defense something I stated earlier in the old thread

"...  in so called PUG games highly skilled players will more often screw around and not show their full potential. As a result people should not argue with replays where they somehow beat a higher ranked player in a pug game, when it did not mean anything at the time for the higher ranked player."

 

This is an example of exactly what happened. Your beast was fine. However do you think I played with the same precautions and focus as in the tournament? PUG games are PUG games. If you want to proof yourself for the tier list arrange some good matches for it. Then I won't play laying on my bed while watching TV at the same time Also I was showing the game to one of my friends while i played...

I guess i have to start using smurf accounts when I'm not playing 100%...

Quoting Boxxy_Koush,
reply 23


Also I'd like to request some 2 v 2's (Me and Renz) against Zex and a partner of his choosing, why? Cause I haven't played with him in ages and I need to see if he's a badass now or what before I have an current opinion on the guy.

 

2v2's really are not my style but me and RAWWRRRR tend to do pretty well together.

EDIT: Tomorrow I am going to go through the current list and make a tier list minus myself, perhaps tomorrow we could get some 2v2's in as well koush because I haven't played with you in ages either.

i think all 5 committee members should submit a tier list onto this thread and the ones the names that correspond identically on each list will be put on the thread list while the others will be discussed.

Zen God stop being such a rager.  No one is trashing on you.  But if you want to get mad at this point I don't give a shit.  Be mad, I have beaten you in other games as well.  It is not the point for me.  I just want to get on the list.

I've beaten everyone on the old tier 1 list and I've lost to almost everyone (or everyone) on the old tier 1 list - sometimes when I've just got random pugs, sometimes with a team.  Zen makes a good point about player attitude in a tournament or more serious game though. 

 

howboutnoooo - please add an UNRANKED section to the list and add DD-brandon_varn.  We can discuss him and place him, then give him the opportunity to fight in an advancement match if he doesn't believe he's been ranked appropriately or wants to move on up. 

 

I don't have time to nit pick and go through the whole list atm - here are the only people I'd put at tier 1 now, though.

TIER 1

  • Boxxy_Koush
  • RAWRRRRR
  • Zen_God

TIER 2

  • mcshane
  • kalel
  • pacov
  • mithrandar
  • abuggeredhedgie/awuffleablehedgie
  • orcun
  • zoahr
  • 2nana (no eng though –plays well)
  • Jongalt26
  • Zex
  • nomilarac

TIER 3

  • Atma44x (atma is a really tricky call for tier 2, imo - but he really shined in the 2v2 tournament) - I don't think he can consistently play at the same level as the players in this list, but at his best, he fits tier 1... at his worst, tier 3.  We could put him tier 3, but with a good teammate playing a 2v2, odds are he'd qualify for tier 2. (pacov note – moved atma to tier 3 – let him challenge and win to get into tier 2)
  • eXXcentric
  • irek1988/never-fuk-wit-a-oak
  • Kitty007
  • Kollecktir
  • Ke5trel
  • Thundercles
  • Xynth
  • Peterdumptruck
  • Shred_demon
  • Soccer-mom (same cat as atma to me – he can probably challenge and move on up to tier 2 quick)
  • Jaws8you
  • Celmare
  • Karebears (might qualify for tier 2 – only got a few games with him here and there in the last month or so – challenge and move up to tier 2)
  • Prozombie (he’s hit and miss – should fight to qualify tier 2)
  • Brandon_varn
  • Maccilia (mac’s improved a lot, but let him fight for hit tier 2)
  • Lethstang
  • LuftBR
  • Obiwhan (obi can hang in tier 3 – let him fight to qualify for tier 2)
  • STFNG (he’s close to unranked… plays well enough in the pugs I’ve been up against him – fight for tier 2)
  • Ogham (let him fight for tier 2)
  • Teseer (fight for tier 2)
  • yeahneil
  • doggu (good sense of strat, tries to co-ordinate team, but poor sport... ready to concede almost as fast as pete)

 

 

 

TIER 4 

  • fmlrommel (either a smurf or just someone that thinks they are good, but generally lacks the sense of a tier 3 or 2 player)

Unranked

captnspaulding

Grahf

spooky_ (haven’t played enough with lately)

Epiphenomenon (haven’t played enough with lately)

Amazing_Hero

Archon_SAAR (haven’t played enough with lately)

Lifekatana (inactive again?)

Alterschism (haven’t played enough with lately)

Iokke

NinkiCZ (its funny that I have to leave ninki unranked… he and I have played a total of like 1-2 games period – I assume he’s a good player and just gets bashed by a few of his former clan mates, etc)
Naur
Darz4
Esuzu
_illuminati_

I'd include trouser (possibly as tier 1), but I think he might be just about done with dg. 

That's all I have time for.  I'd like to be REALLY clear that I'd list more folks in tier 2, but I don't have the time atm.

 

EDIT - Please add SaulTigh to the unranked list as well, howbout

Not trying to start anything, but I don't really remember losing to you. I may be wrong, but I don't suppose you could refresh my memory?

 

Also, I'd like to make Renz part of the committee, the guy plays with more people then me so he probably has a much fresher opinion on people while remaining equally unbiased when ask for a real opinion, do any other rep's object to this? I consider renz to be just as good as me in pure fighting situations.

Disagree - think you fellas will generally have the same opinion, so to me, it would to better to have either or you, but not both.

So the committee should be 80% OMG players and also moderated by the least intelligent person in OMG?  It's not as if you are going to generally have the same opinion?  Go back to it being just your list if you're going to completely ignore what Koush has to say.

Who's ignoring Koush's opinion, mcshane? Not me...

So the committee should be 80% OMG players and also moderated by the least intelligent person in OMG?

that's a wee bit rude, but note that moderating and being on the committee aren't the same thing - howbout has simply offered his time to update the OP as requested by the committee. 

So the committee should be 80% OMG players

Everyone that is currently in the committee all have somewhat different opinions on talent - that's my take on it.  Note the tier 1 list I provided - not a single OMG member in it... isn't that strange?  I guess I'm just going to vote for my pals as being the best at the game, eh?  And note koush's list - he essentially just voted up the folks he plays with on a regular basis.  That's not to say Koush's opinion is invalid, I'm simply suggesting that adding someone that's simply going to agree with Koush doesn't add all that much value if we are trying to come to a consensus based on varied points of view.  What do you think are the odds that everyone in Koush's tier 1 list would vote each other to tier 1? 

Anyway, my take is that the people that are on the committee will all vote a bit differently.  Then we get our initial list setup.  Then we have matches and people that think they have been placed incorrectly can fight it out, earn the place in the correct tier, and that's all there is to it.  I really expect that the committee should ONLY be useful for initial placement.  Anyway, I don't have the final say as it is a committee, I just think different viewpoints of experienced players is the best way to go for the list's creation instead of the same view point from a few players that regularly play together.
