I'm not sure why people are arguing against it.


 No, you're choosing to ignore the counter arguments because you have no regard for the opinions of others.

LEADERBOARDS ARE BAD, M'KAY? BECAUSE... 

1. IT ENCOURAGES PLAYERS TO CHEAT TO PROTECT THEIR RANKING.

2. IT ENCOURAGES PEOPLE TO DROP FROM GAMES TO PROTECT THEIR RANKING.

3. THE BEST SSBB PLAYERS IN THE WORLD WILL BE DETERMINED BY TOURNAMENTS HELD ON SMASHBOARDS.COM 

Those are all excellent reasons for why ranking systems suck, but it doesn't seem to get through your head.

I don't think anyone here is really AGAINST the idea, it's that we're not going to have a good long sulk over it not being in the game. 


Windbane obviously hasn't played Phantom Hourglass or any other wifi games with stats.

True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing.
