Re: Top 100 Relative Rank

Re: Top 100 Relative Rank

Relative Rank is a ' Love it or Loathe it ' kind of scoring system. The truth is that there are many arguments on either side for and against a relative ranking system. This thread should serve to foster discussion and debate on a relative ranking system of scoring.
