Ratings Guides (Contd) and Most Underrated Players

Since numerous posters wouldn't stop posting at me about ratings guides on Valen's Castro thread, I decided to start this thread where they can continue if some posters feel (for some reason) they must. To make this thread more interesting than that, I decided to also start a Top Ten Post of underrated players of the past 25 years. Those underrated players can be unsung good-excellent players or those particularly solid part-timers who also escaped notice. I will have my own list soon.

We are still all waiting for your proof that the ratings guide gives you an advantage over not having one. Looking forward to your arguments, as you have refused to provide any to date.

Davey, you know you're on ignore. I have no idea why you bother.

His reply to other people that fail to provide proof is that they must not be able to. Therefore, his analysis of the ratings guide is just simply his opinion, with no facts to back it up. I have never seen one of these guides and have around 60 championships. My opinion is that they are just another tool or research mechanism like Diamond Dope and all the information is in front of you on the cards. Just need a little bit of math skills.

And another member of my ignored list, Bedjam, shows up. I'm looking forward to a post I'll actually read.

And Steve F makes it 3 for 3. That means I'm done with this thread for the day...

In fact, I'm done with this thread, period. if people want to talk about ratings guides or anything else here. They can do it without me.

Ciao

I've only bought the ratings guide a couple times. I use a card reader script, instead.

It's okay to be bad. I know I'm no good. I won't check my Championship count.

Guess he will not have anything to read as everyone supposedly set to "ignore"

l.strethy - still waiting for your proof?

You got beat 34-11 by me in last night's series. I have never seen you make the playoffs in any league we both have been in. When was your last championship?

Here is another one from last night: http://onlinegames.strat-o-matic.com/game/426965/362
