fucking lol @ Henning being on there
These rankings are inaccurate. Henning is a cheater.
there are guys like Shade and Jugador3 who have tons of N/As when they obviously have completed the levels, so they have times there; OFTEN TIMES they completed the levels in front of other eliters, Lec, Karl, FB, etc.
no one was never completely removed from the PD ranks at least (only if they had NO videos) especially not a top 5 player.
Your argument does not change the fact that his LIVE PRs should at the very least be ranked. They're million times more legit than stuff like Berube 53 and other stuff I mentioned.
Henning never faked several vids of the same claimed PR. While I agree with the community at large that Henning is a liar and he should be banned from all other elite activities, it still is, and always will be, preposterous not to have his LIVE PRs ranked.
Anyway, I created another Proven rankings without Henning. You can find it here: http://thengamer.com/ProvenGEranks2/elite.htm
regarding Shade/JugadorJ3: I agree, BUT there are NO videos so we can never be perfectly sure can we?
Off/On topic what Vid of mine doesn't exist. That should be my Retirement PR (60/60 ftw) Im thinking its maybe train 00? I remember hearing a 1s improvement of mine got lost over the years
Yeah Alex, it's Train 00A: http://rankings.the-elite.net/~Bass+Boost/time/13563 - I never reviewed/had that video.
Sometimes I see 80+ pointers on the rankings without a camera next to it? (no video) It either isn't uploaded on YouTube or is very old? Or just no vid :kappa:
Should just implement a filter on the website so you can filter out all records that DONT have videos.
agree with this. That way we virtually get a proven rankings. I'm sure some current 80+ pointers with no video attached to it have videos though (especially PD).

Happy backrolling!
The reason YE won't add any more stuff to the rankings is because some people here are treating him like shit.
I'm not sure if a programmer can ADD it to the rankings if he doesn't have the source code (which YE conveniently made private a few months ago) but this might be something worth doing or looking into.

Well, maybe another person can take care of the rankings and add some?
I love you YE.
In that linked YE post he said "I made it out of compassion because I want to see the Elite community continue to thrive."
Don't believe this for one second. YE's intentions are not altruistic. If this were the case he wouldn't have removed the code. The fact is that programming is his profession, it's what he studied to earn money. He didn't learn all that just so he could create a new rankings page for us.
Yes, Ryan did spend a lot of time on the rankings. But don't paint him out to be this saint who does everything from the goodness of his heart. He took the source away because he still wants all the power. But just because someone has IT skills it doesn't make them a good leader or someone who can make sound decisions.
No, ryan didn't take the source code away because someone treated him like shit. He took it away to reinforce his grip of power on the elite because he was feeling insecure and upset that everyone wasn't worshipping him.
I do actually appreciate the effort he put into the rankings. But the fact is that if he actually cared about the future of the elite, the source would be available and he wouldn'let stupid shit like this get into the way.
And you're not a deity who knows exactly how Ryan felt/feels about the situation and what thoughts he went through to come to this conclusion and action. His post sounds a lot more compassionate than yours sounds appreciating of his efforts. Stating these things about him like they are facts, sounds more powerhungry to me. Taking away access to the code can also be an act of protecting against the ill and then it definitely is coming out of good intentions.
My post sounds power hungry to you, therefore YE is compassionate? I'm sorry Wouter but that is stupid logic. Taking away access to the code is protecting against the ill? Lol I don't even know what that means dude. I want what you're smoking.
Ryan offered a service of his programming skills. We accepted the new site because it's better than the original. Ryan claims he has asked for nothing. HOWEVER THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE LIE. Ryan has ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY OF THE WEBSITE. That is not asking for nothing. He can do whatever the fuck he wants with the website and has the final word. That's what price we had to pay.
As I previously stated he can do that, but don't go saying YE is such a fucking good guy. Cause you guys are being naive as fuck.Why does it bother you how other people see YE? Why are you looking for a person to blame rather than being the person who solves it? (same goes for goose)
Another important fact of the matter is that we asked YE to "fix" the full game rankings page so that it read as real time, rather than game time.
He didn't do it.
Then we started bitching, discussing other rankings systems, etc.
In the 5-10 minutes it took for YE to read those posts, angrily respond to them, and take down his rankings free source; he could have fixed what was desired on the full game speedrun page. What we were asking for was literally that simple.
Regardless of your skill or expertise in a matter, most people will give you 5 minutes of their time if they are nice and they like you. A doctor will take a glance at your sore shoulder and tell you where to go. A lawyer will give you passing advice or a referral. A car guy will open your hood, check your fluids and tell you what he thinks is wrong. A programmer who is capable will fix something that literally takes them 30 seconds.
K.., Goose: If someone gives an incredible, free service, and then you don't like something, please don't then go accusing that person of a lack of morals and a hunger for power. It's not nice, and it's also incredibly hypocritical.
The fact you guys don't see the problem here is a joke. WHY is because YE has a full monopoly locked on the rankings. Even if we hired someone new, they wouldn't be able to do it. Karl is right. This is 100% YE's way of feeling powerful in the elite.The fact that you keep blaming others and claim to have 100% insight into people's "real" motives is a joke.

1. Elite rankings updated every few days, mediocre.
2. YE works on rankings, makes beautiful system.
3. More than a year later, YE makes this open-source apparently on his own initiative.
4. Goose creates drama, starts new "Elite", says he's going to take YE's code and use it to compete with The Elite.
5. YE gets upset, says that's not why he made it open-source, takes code down.
6. Goose ridicules YE, saying it's only for a power trip.
The Elite had zero obligation to use YE's code. YE had zero obligation to make it for The Elite. Most importantly, YE had zero obligation to make it open-source. If he was on a power trip, why did he open-source it in the first place?
YOU ticked YE off. Why don't YOU apologize?
Wouter just one more time for you and other people. I don't care if Ryan keeps the code private. I don't care if Ryan keeps the code private. I don't care if he keeps the code private. BUT, I do care when Ryan keeps the code private AND YOU BLAME GOOSE. What the fuck? It is NO ONE'S fault but YE's if he keeps the code from people.
If YE took the code down because Goose was upsetting him, that's not benefiting the community. Seems like he's hammering the whole community down based on one individual's petty actions. Self-interest is taking priority over improving this place, which is what most people would do. But don't talk like that's not the case.
Literally 100s of people in my stream asked for full game rankings page and I didn't have one to give them. You guys know nothing about this life. So just go back to your little hole in the elite chatroom and stop pretending you know what's going on.
your post will make absolutely no difference.
PROVE ME WRONG!
PROVE ME WRONG!
Gladly, I just updated the rankings.
I'm pretty bad like that Shawn, if I haven't uploaded a vid it probably means I didn't capture the run or the recording went into the rubbish bin. this is my last 4 weeks of uni forever, so soon I'll have the time to go get dumb stuff like Egypt 46s and cradle 00a and shoot for top 5 60/60 etc
