Ok so for me when I look at making a TDer list I try and take the best comnos of quanity and quality so I thought of this formula to statistically rank the throwdowners on fannation combining wins and winning percentage. This list does not reflect my opinion just the results the formula produced.
Whats the formula? Take the number the TDer ranks on the winning percentage leaderboard and add that to the number they rank on the wins leaderboard and the best TDer is the one with the LOWEST total number. So here we go.
If someone doesn't make one leaderboard but makes the other its a handicap of 55 points since that isn't very all around at all.
People on both lists

porkins #3/#29

Ok if anyone on this list has under 57 points they are guaranteed to make the top 25. After 55 points is when we get into guys like Goodell who have 57 because of the penalty for not making a leaderboard.
Of the 31 people who made both leaderboards, only 20 of them have UNDER 57 points and guaranteed spots. The other 5 will go to DQers.
Now, lets make the list with the non X's first to get a solid 20 before we get into the DQers. all ties are determined by whoever has the lowest in one catagorie. Like if someone is tied with 15 and one person was 1 in win pct and 14 in wins and the other was 7 in win pct and 8 in wins then the low number of the group is 1 and the tiebreaker goes to the first person.
#1. Detroitfan- 17 points
#2. Ghosthunter-23 points
#3. Coletrain- 25 points
#4. NCshvDavid- 28 points (tiebreaker=#1 in wins)
#5. Steveo- 28 points
#6. Porkins- 32 points (tiebreaker=#3 in winning pct)
#7. Rstowe-32 points (tiebreaker=#10 in wins)
#8. Bschwartz07- 32 points
#9. Duquesne- 35 points
#10. Lifer- 40 points (tiebreaker #3 in wins)
#11. Denis24- 40 points
#12. Nomarfan-42 points
#13. [The] Coach- 45 points
#14. Favre Fan- 47 points (tiebreaker=8th in wins)
#15. hyped78-47 points
#16. EFB- 48 points (tiebreaker=15th in wins)
#17. Basketball Jesus- 48 points
#18. CCC- 49 points
#19. Cassidy's House- 50 points
#20. The Guru- 55 points
#21. Goodell- 57 points (tiebreaker=#2 in wins)
#22. Bandit- 57 points (tiebreaker=#2 in winning percentage)
#23. Nickb23-57 points
#24. Irish R #1- 58 points (tiebreaker=11 in wins)
#25. Bigdleech- 58 points

PhillyEagles36- 59 points
J(Browns 19-0)- 60 points
TheNest6827- 60 points
djroxalot- 61 points
Gu3- 62 points
Baun-ded- 62 points
Foosball- 63 points
dyhard- 64 points
Now of course the list will be missing some greats and will also not appeal to everyone but I think this system produced a really DAMN GOOD list! I still don't believe I deserve to be on there and I feel people like Danbash are top 25 TDers but I didn't put any bias into this at all. Just created a system to determine the top 25 best, most all around TDers on the nation. Accurate or not, it looks like a good list to me.

I like the effort, EF...but I still see some flaws. Let's say Person A has 300 wins and Person B has 200 wins, but despite that they're 5th and 6th on the leaderboard. Now let's say that Person B has a 75% win percentage, and Person A has a 74% win percentage, yet B is in 10th place and A is in 15 place...that would make person B significantly better on your list, yet he wouldn't be.

Do I need to recuse myself because I have been kicked out of the FanNation Fan Club?
I am a really big fan of best TDers in the last 30 days.
That shows who is staying active and trying to improve their records versus people who are sitting on their laurels and living in the past.
Just my two cents.

I absolutley agree Lifer and I did run into that problem. The winning percentage is much tighter packed than the wins and that did present a problem. I think the list still paints a pretty decent picture tho.
Cassidy I know active TDers are important but this is just a system that doesn't take into account anything but the set in stone stats. It is bound to be flawed.

I see major flaws, EF...well, no, just the fact I'm not on there. That's understandable.
Kudos!

Lifer stole my thought!
You also miss WHO they fight- I beat Porkins- but Duquesne beats me repeatedly
another spot is recent records- last month Hyped was KILLIN people- but this month Bigalke has won some monster Tourneys and Hemo is JUST SMASHIN people.
But Lifer has lost twice recently in the ELite- once to porkins and once to Leech- neither easy wins-
But great effort there- There is no perfect system.

Great job, Ef. Pretty smart system. However, there will obviously be flaws like not taking competition into account or anything like that. Still a good list though.
