| "you must also notice the very strong performance of Denmark, with 10 out of 17 players in the first quarter. That is even more than China (11 out of 20) and more than France (7 out of 22)." I fully agree with that, and if you look on the European ranking, you will notice that there is 5 Danish players in the top 10, where other "strong" countries had only 1. Moreover, there is "only" 25 Danish players in the all ranking, where, for example France, has 84 ! So the performances of the Danish players are more than good ! I don't know if the chineese and the japaneese players I've meet during this WMC are strong or not, I don't know if they have had luck or not, but 2 of the 3 tables I've ended on the second place was won by a Danish players. And I've meet more japaneese and chineese players than danish ones... For Anton : "Looking at the Europeans in the ranking, I see in the upper quarter mostly players who have been claiming medal positions in MERS-tournament before." I'm happy that you noticed this, because it is exactly the goal of the NEW EMA ranking. This is done by the 50% of the "Best 3 results average" in the global calculation of the rate. This system also allow you to "miss" a tournament without falling in the deep abyss: If you miss a tournament, by definition, this result will not enter in your "Best 3 results average", so only your "global results average" will be affected. This NEW system will then also encourage players to play a lot of MERS tournament : the more tournaments you play the more chances you have to improve your "Best 3 results average" Oliv' |
