To add my 5 cents that no one gives two sh*ts about,
Too many players now (im talking ctb strictly, feel free to apply it elsewhere) too many
players are focusing on their PP count and their ranking because they think it makes them a better player.
E.g. #1 In New Zealand has more PP than all of us, fact. #2 in NZ has higher plays and more of them.
That being said, PP is the accumulation of your scores, itd go without saying the higher your PP count the more PP youve earnt but I dont see a connection between someoen having X PP and Y scores and Z skill when person B can have ledd PP, better scores and overly a more skilled player...
