Shenjoku you're a clear D4 player. I think SDGs is a better way to estimate players than just AAAs. Shenjoku has SDGs in the high 60s.

If you guys want a simple way to estimate your division, take your 9th best SDG, and then look at
37 or lower: D1
38-48: D2
49-59: D3
60-71: D4
72-81: D5
82-89: D6
90-99: D7

Of course, this is approximate but it's more accurate than the AAA thing.

Don't even bother trying to rate people by division through complete objectivity, it won't work

It's an ESTIMATE, jesus.

(also depends on how you define SDG. There's some contention about that, afaik)

It's not even supposed to be an estimate since it's only 7 divisions, if you're off by 1 division you're completely off since an increase/decrease in division is significant

As other have mentioned, L.B.D.D, I said it was approximate. You haven't even played a bunch of the songs and have enough good scores that you appear easily capable of getting 9 90+ SDGs. I think you're very capable of D7. And you high SDGs are all even fewer than 9 goods so that should be worth something, too. Beary605, I think you are on the lower end of D6. Not the lowest D6 player but not too high.

I think anyone who AA's 11even should be in d7. *cough Ji*

But then again,I know you can't really compare SM to FFR.

What in the actual fuck. None of this can be subjective. That's why the board has to come to complete agreement upon division placement.

Sorry if this is sort of way off the topic people are talking about but does anyone know what the preview videos are?

Preview videos are just that - they preview the upcoming round's songs. It's just to stir up hype. I love them.

Here's an example: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...p?songid=11348

There's A LOT of variables into play here. Trying to come up with one master formula isn't going to cut it. That's why we have judges in the first place, to judge. Guidelines are a good source to get started in terms of division placement but trying to come up with a master formula that takes each and every single possible song and score combination in the levelranks is just unfeasible; it takes a human eye and intuition to be able to determine how a set of levelranks corresponds to a division placement. Any formula or algorithm to place people might be good in terms of estimation, but it isn't going to work 100% of the time.

(If I misinterpreted your post (which I think I might have done), I apologize ahead of time)

This would put me in D2 XD Maybe even D1. But I got put in D3 last year because of a few old scores I know I'll never beat. I was so good at index. When I switched, it fell apart. I'll sign up, but if I'm D3 again, I'm not playing. Not after seeing those D2 Finals last tournament. Those were D3 scores, and better than what I could have pulled off. I got eliminated round 1 in D3 last time. :/
