The plat ranking is based on your amount of platinums, not the amount of points that a current year plat nets you. So if you plat AC next week, that would earn you 1 plat for the plat rankings. If you - as the first - plat Monster Hunter with 1000GS, you will earn 10 points for it as a current plat, as you said, and again, one plat point for the total plat ranking table.

So you're basically right, but for the new plat rankings the plats aren't tracked as points, but rather just the amount that you have. Then whoever holds the most plats every month gets the 10 points added to their overall score, 7 for the second most, and so on.

Ah yeah that is what i thought but was just presuming points were like the were for the current plat table but that makes sense now with the physical/digital tie breaker in place :)

Nothing to do with what you wrote, but how many hours (approx.) did you spend playing Oh...Sir! ?
I've done the 2 controller grinding method for hours, but the results thus far are rather poor. Especially the duck hunter sentence is a nightmare. (I was close a few times though). Also you already completed 100 duels...
Shame that the game doesn't track in game time.

That's literally what I've been doing already......maybe you noticed? There's an update every month showing what everybody earned. I can't exactly keep adding every month to the OP/front page.

Barozi already suggested doing some tables for everbody's cumulative GS and TA over the course of the year, so that's something I'll be doing. Could I add a table showing everyone's best monthly score? Ya, maybe. I don't wanna clutter the front page too much, but I'll see what it looks like.
