Who cares about rankings, I love how they put us rank 4. We get to be the underdog!

That's because your team sucks, LOL. You are not worthy to be #1. (This coming from a guy on the team you just handled, LOL).

You squeak out a win against a serious championship contender in USAORG and lose points for it...gotta love the power rankings.

Sadly its true. However once all 4 of them have met each other I am sure we will see an even of the ranking for the top 4 spots. Atm unless I missed something, of the 4 this was the first head to head.
Moved up to 8th after beating the crapiest team in all of Elephant Conference...WTF??? LOLz

Well lets ee. You scored a ton, didnt allow any and got a win.
Point differential boost to your ranking +a win.
Unless I add a Strngth of Schedule which i thought was pointless because of the fact that by the end you all play each other then yes a game like that will boost you up a good chunk. Just like Cairo dropped for beating USAORG because they did win but the point differential was small. They didnt gain any room there. Keep in mind you played against #16 and won handidly. Someone else plays them tomorrow and then again in 3 days someone else and so on and so forth. Until more games get played it will continue to fluctuate.
The other thing is in addition to a win and a high point differential you added points to you score because it was your highest point total of the season.

So basically power rankings are absouletly worthless till the end of the season when they will be absolutely worthless since the ultimate power ranking, record, will be complete. A stat based power rankings system will always end up this way.

Or like Nico said, its inaccurate at the moment until we get a decent number of games into the season. At the moment, just like in the league, 1-2 wins can jump you a whole lot of places if things go the right way for you.

Give the guy a break, we are 4 games into the season. Theres just no where near enough information out there right now to accurately gauge exactly where everyone is without just doing it off the top of your head. Do I agree with the power rankings this week? No of course not, I think Cairo deserves #1 after they took down USAORG. But at least he's taking the time out of his day to do these power rankings in a couple of days they will be far more accurate.

I think Nic is doing a bang up job and appreciate his efforts. On the flip side, I think until the one team actually, is a real team, any game played against them should be considered semi null and void for rankings, unless some how they manage to actually do something.
