yeah i agree that elo is not the perfect system, but then we can make the tournament invitational, and invite who we think are best, which would create the ladder more useless and create less motivation to play and less competition because would be no goal, at least with elo people must fight for a spot, even if is not perfect system but which system is?In football for world cups or eurocup, you see that is based on regions, and sometimes world cup champions like Italy are out, even netherlands, brazil even has been out of the final stages while other countries that i won´t mention but almost do not even have profesional leagues get into the tournament, there must be a way to select the players, otherwise would be invitational, and for me that not the way to go.Vinchester focused on NAC2 and he lost, then sadly he got some problems and could not do it, and then some others could not get the rating, well for several reasons, bad days, they play stronger opponents or whatever, but for me that make all the process more interesting, most fair? well when you find a process 100% fair let me know and we would be glad to implement, right now i think is very complicated, at least with this one everyone has chances to participate.
