An annual CoC; where scheduled at the start of a season, perhaps has relevance. One based on the last five years doesn"t. If you want to find the most successful player during that time, then I would look at APAT cashes on the Hendon Mob database.

Joint 7th wohoo!
p.s. not sure if this is open to debate but is there any possible movement from a Saturday night to a Sunday for the online National events? I havent been able to play one this season with it being on a Saturday :( but I"m sure theres equally the same argument for people who prefer it on a Saturday over a Sunday. Just chucking it into the "consideration hat" x

Leader Board- I think more emphasis is needed on the overall leader board (online and live). It would be good to see it on the front page showing who is top, by how many points, etc etc. The UKIPT do this very well with the leader board pride of place on their front page.

I agree - and please keep it up to date. We all know that there is a lot of work involved in organising and running the tournaments, a substantial amount of which is never seen, so I can never understand why the simplest five-minute job of updating the leaderboard to finish off the event usually gets left undone for weeks. Why not just do it on the day? And saying you don"t know who has finished where in online games is incredible - can"t someone be delegated to watch the game and record the result?

The updating bit is the easy bit, its just then what you do with the rankings to actually make them mean something. It would be great to have some kind of added value for player of the season ie. x number of buyins for next season - sponsorship allowing. Saying that though, I am not sure the added value is particularly important. APAT has a strong community and a lot of regular players. A leader board that was made more prominant would be cool just for brag purposes.

nooo please don"t do that.... I wouldn"t be able to play Sundays, for the same reason that I don"t play the Sunday majors. Monday morning start is way too early for a late Sunday night ;)

that"s a bit harsh
For the live events the ranking positions are sent to the compiler the day after the event are are almost always updated in the rankings on the same week
There was a dislocation with the DTD WCOAP Online as it coincided to the day with Leigh's departure and the need to record the results fell through the cracks. Once we then obtained the results from DTD we had to work out who was represented by which DTD alias, a process that is ongoing.
Not exactly representative of systematic laxness in updating the rankings....

agree with rich here there has been a few probs with rankings and can understand national ranking with DTD/888 probs with names etc.
1 thing which is prob a bit bad without sounding harsh is the national poker league div 1 never had individual standings up . Although many thanks to gerry for doing an individual speadsheet .
And i would volunteer to have a go of keeping it upto date either this year or next. (I know its hard to keep on top of it but i have a lot of time on my hands now) !
