Posters have all been ranked 1-68 (1 being top) based on 3 current criteria. A 4th Poll criteria will be added.

The three current criteria are:
1. Registration Date (10%)
2. Total Posts (15%)
3. Posts Per Day (25%)

Once we get our Committee members all set (still looking for 2 more), the committee members will then rank the posters 1-68. Those numbers will then be averaged together to come up with a Poll RNK. The Poll RNK will then make up 50% of the OVERALL metric.

Seeding will be based on OVERALL Metric. In the event of a tie, (we use 3 decimal places) the committee will vote.

Following the selection show, we will post ALL criteria and polls. The smoke filled room will be enjoyed by all.

What the hell, Putin? You’re just gonna throw-out a long-standing committee member at will? No public vote? No quorum? THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! The USCHO world will not stand for such aggressions. I shall call upon the High Council to have your membership to the elite rank of G8 posters revoked unless you reverse-course immediately. :mad:

Of course, this was all probably just a minor oversight, and if so... yeah, we’re cool. Carry on... :D

I appreciate that you've created a veneer of objectivity for what ultimately remains an entirely subjective process. Very NCAA of you :)

According to social media posts, a member of the committee is handling PA duties for ladies softball - this would seem to be grounds for immediate dismissal...:eek:

As they say, "You have to be in it, to win it...." Interesting choice however. The committee will look at it as a possibility. Another side note, BEER will not only be served, but is also FREE at all D3TOP events...
