A PR panel was around long before 90% of you were playing smash. It was disbanded because the bias was OBSCENE. It is a fact that EVERY panel is bias due to the human element being the determining factor of player rankings. That is why Zac made a program(that CAN be edited if the people feel its off in certain aspects). The program uses MATH instead of personal(human) interpretation to determine skill.
Note: No system is perfect whether its MATH or HUMAN. MATH however is 100% unbiased. That is what we need and what we should keep.
EDIT: and pwii, i can come back and host tournaments any time i want. i could come back and sweep this Houston scene out from under any current TO i want(i have the resources/incentives) because not a single TO in this state did/does what i do/can do in terms of events/attendance/hype. I choose not to cause im sick of this game and the people that are like you. I also want people to stop relying on me because i wont be around forever. You dont understand any of this **** because you are too stupid(just read your posts on any given subject) and are a new gen.

Being new gen doesn't make you some sort of plague. I get it xyro, you're great, maybe even a legend to this state in terms of tournaments. You started out well, in a great region, with a lot of great potential that worked out for you fantastically. However, that doesn't make your accomplishments unreachable or untouchable. In this dying game, yeah, you've done work, and it'll be hard for a "new gen" to top it since they've got short end of the stick.
But a chance is all one needs, and you could be aiding someone, not because of the ****ed up game, but because they deserve every bit of help that you may have gotten when you started out.
Like me for instance. Won't you help a starving African?

Im not saying the new gen TOs cant revive the scene or that they cant reach my level of "amazingness"(just like i couldnt reach the level of amazingness my predecessor, Scav, reached) Im just saying i dont think its possible with this game. Here is why, imo.
1. The game is bad and literally multiple dozens of people dropped the game in tx alone due to this. Its hard to carry on and grow a scene when people are realizing how bad this game is.
2. No one works with each other(coordinate events/support each others event/allow time for people to save up money for each others events). Sanji/denti/alsm/xyro/sync...ect have all done or are doing this. In a time where the game is dying u need team work more than ever.
3. The rule-sets every TO in TX uses has increasingly become so varied that we dont use a unified ruleset(no im not saying we need the unity rule-set). Alsm does one rule-set, denti does another, i do another, sync does another. i guess this relates to #2 maybe.
4. People dont travel anymore. Were you around for HOBO 1-25? Tons of carpool People would travel from obscene places(El paso crew drove 11 hours almost MONTHLY) just to play smash. Only like 1-2 cities do that now.
i seriously think the scene can be saved but not grow(to its former levels), if that makes sense. I truly think smash 4 will bring back the fire to the hearts of smashers(old and new alike).

I completely understand, and strongly agree with you. I thought you were making yourself the TO Triforce master or something.

Lol Swaka calm down. I'm waiting on Denti to send me some Tio files. Notice how in the updates, I posted what tournaments where included.
Denti
Smash Master
Sync, Alsm and I are all using roughly the Apex rule set now, so no more confusion. And what tournaments do I need to send you Sync? I have all of them.
edit: i just checked which tournament. I need to send you BM 7, 8, 9 and Revolution 11, 12 and Texas Crusade 1, 2, 3. There is probably more. Get ready for some drastic changes yall LOL
double edit: YOOOooooOOo I found some more tournaments I never sent in. Ultimate gaming convention 1, at UNT. That happened like a few months ago. Dude, I wonder if there is more.
3rd edit: DUDE THE LOTUS SERIES. THERE WAS LIKE 4 OF THOSE. (I could only find 1, idk where the others went)
Quad edit: I found out there where a lot of holes in me sending tournaments. Like there is no Revolution 1, 8 and the is no Batou's monthly 5. I have all of these, but I really don't want to send them in since they are like a half a year old or more.
5th and final edit: just sent in 9 tournaments and 3 other tournaments pending because I don't want to send any more in LOL.

People say they retire all the time and come back. I won't deem them retired until actual evidence and attendance says so.
How about do something similar like the terrible Top 5 thread and deem them retired after a certain amount of time?
6 or so months.

You have to qualify to be on the retired list. So you're probably gonna have to describe your former activity and, since then, which accessible tournies you didn't attend (usually means locals or some other tourney series that usually had your attendance).

I should have a tio file for realmscon in the next few days for you once I get it.

Yeah Labernash. Don't ask to be retired, if you stay RETIRED you'll be deemed retired. So it'll happen lol.
