Maxally encouraging drunk posts? Calling other people haters? Coming from the person who made the worst drunk/hateful post I have ever seen on this forum? To use another cliche - People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones Posted by Phantom66

Wii this cheered me up . Its Friday and Stoke has posted gl in mega.
As for OP don't think anyone has any objections with posting your results as mentioned maybe keep it in one thread.
As for interaction I am not sure what you expect .They are results no debate no need to comment.

Love your drunk posts stoke. Keep them coming.
I think it's the "hateful" part not the "drunk" part that is the problem, although if an individual is prone to making hateful remarks when drunk perhaps they should leave the forum alone while drinking.
Put the posts in the tournament results thread if you like, they're fairly closely related.
The use of the phrase 'Best Player' is the only thing that doesn't sit quite right with me. 'Player with the best recent MTT results' isn't as catchy, but is more accurate.
Who is the 'best player' is something that is almost impossible to determine. For a start your system excludes everybody who specialises in cash and SnGs. Also everybody who doesn't play a high volume of the tournaments you report. That's probably at least 95%+ of the players on the site. Of the small group that are left we then have to ask who will be top of the table, the best player, or the player who has run hottest lately?
For example, I think I play OK, I'm nowhere near as good as the best obviously, but even if I go on a massive heater I've still got 0% chance of ever appearing on the list of the top 100 'best players'.

cheers gary.
what you do and what i do aren't really the same. similar. you do a fine job posting the results of the 5 or 6 biggest games. i look at player performance totals for the day, week, month, rolling 30 days and year. i do record final tables but have never looked to post full results. if soccer saturday is anything to go by, you are reporting today's results whereas i am producing the league tables and opta stats.
one of the four things i do is "Best Player". you are right with your point about qualifying the title. i think i do in all my posts and on the website. it is best player of those who play in any of the 20 biggest guaranteed tournaments on sky poker every day, or the 7,000 major tournaments each year.
you are right to question what constitutes best. to me there are several ways including highest returns (see hendon mob) or highest profit. you can debate whether it should be judged over just one game or thousands or a period of time. highest return or most profit is not my preference to determine best. a qualitative scoring system produces the most accurate idea of best player. it is all debatable and no one can ever be certain of producing an unequivocal best. nevertheless there are 8 best player leagues on my website under the "Best" tab and you can choose whichever one you feel is the best match.
then, the question of players who don't play in the biggest games. 23,519 players are included so far this year. i remember an uncle telling me that he is the best tennis player in the world. i have never seen him play, nor has he entered any competition but his point was that it was unfair to bestow greatness on someone when he had not been included. i disagree but he has a valid point.
you and i are not likely to be best player. but it is not impossible. to feature in the top 100 i need to do a number of things; firstly i need to play regularly and i need to win a couple of tournaments and a few cashes too. unlikely but possible.
I would like to see a rolling top 100 2016 best player table. I like the idea of 30 days as anyone who hits a eater can break into it - I even been in it over 50 days this year
Be nice to have a 2016 so far one too just to see where sitting on points

There is a 2016 one, look at best tab then gives you various best tables.

Thanks all.
I would just do whatever suits you and is best / easiest for you, whether it be a separate thread every day, or updating same post.
