Player rankings??

If you are talking about the rankings for pro men in the US, that is done by the UPA. There is an explanation of the method and two lists on the UPA website -- http://www.upatour.com/spktur said:
Players get 125 points for a first-place finish, 95 for second, etc., in each UPA-sanctioned event.
I think there is a different system in other countries.
You may have lost me again. I don't see a "player finder list" but I do see a "Members List" in the bar above on this page. If you go into that "Members List" and look at the names, each name has a "Reputation." attached to it. Is it the "reputation" on the "Members List" you are wondering about?spktur said:

this was brought up before, it is a popularity thing with the number of hits on your profile or something

Now I see list. Yes, it seems to produce strange rankings that aren't related to amount won or titles. It does seem to have something to do with who's hot currently, since Ortmann seems to have had a big step up for the WC 14.1 and now has subsided.spktur said:
Call it a 'heat meter'. It basically tracks how much interest there is in a particular player. The more people click on that player's name, the higher their ranking goes.
Of course, there is code in there to keep someone from just clicking a name over and over to see it go up in rankings.
