Not exactly a lot a fun eh??

On the old site we had Kevin Burleson at the very bottom with 0 thru 5 posts
and Emeka at the top with 2000+ posts

Help me come up with about 8 to 10 rankings that I can set up by post count.
My only insistance is that the very bottom ranking, the lowest of the low be titled Sam Vincent :p

JRich has got to be at the top.
I say Gerald is next.
Tempted to go with Mek; it's either him or Raymond at this spot.
Mek or Raymond.
Nazr? I don't know.
Matt
JD
Ammo
Jeff McInnis
Sammy

Just have fun with the last two! Anybody else, please make a list.

[ziggy]

just off the top of my head how about
Bottom to top:

Sam (Ham Biscuit) Vincent
Kevin Burleson
Primoz (The Gangsta) Brezac
Nazr Mohammed
Adam Morrison
Jared Dudley
Raymond Felton
Emeka Okafor
Gerald Wallace
Jason Richardson

[dnbman]

While I appreciate the fun, we need to tuck Vincent's tenure here in a little box and bury it in some remote corner of Mecklenberg County.

So, I'd say ditch Vincent, despite the immediate pleasure of him having such low status.

Any chance for custom titles when a guy reaches a certain post count?

[ziggy]

Yes indeed!
I'm thinking of setting that at about 500 posts.

[Slam]

Rufus Lynx should be the starting point.

Top Bob should be the highest.

[ammofan]

How about....

Larry Brown (2000+ posts)
Jason Richardson (1000-2000 posts)
Gerald Wallace (551-1000 posts)
Raymond Felton (350-550 posts)
Emeka Okafor ( 275-350 posts)
Adam Morrison (201- 275 posts)
Jared Dudley (126- 200 posts)
Matt Carroll (51-125 posts)
Othella Harrington (11-50 posts)
Sam Vincent (0-10 posts)

They look alright, in general. Still not sure I want SV to have anything to do with this, and it may be a little early to put LB in there. Maybe go with Bob Johnson or MJ instead?

[ammofan]

yeah, maybe we could put MJ up there(I dont think Bob belongs there, honestly...)

[Muttley]

Yeah, I can see where you're coming from on that. Maybe we shouldn't use either figure most closely related to the team that has had the most to do with alienating fans, business, players, and anyone else possibly related to the team, and forget about using SV or BJ.

[Slam]

Top Bob owns the team. You don't get much bigger than that!!

0-500 = Rufus Lynx
501-1,000 = Raymond Felton
1001 - 1,500 = Emeka Okafor
1,501 - 2,000 = Gerald Wallace
2,001 - 2,500 = Jason Richardson
2,501 - 3,000 = Larry Brown
3,001 - 5,000 = Michael Jordan
5,001+ = Top Bob

[TheBeagle]

I'm totally against using any management personnel. No Bob; no MJ; no Bernie; no Rod, etc. It sounds like only me and Ziggy want to use Sammy, so in the interest of majority rule, I'm okay with not using him. That being the case, I vote for using players only, past and present, which would make JRich #1. I'll also cast my vote for keeping Burleson last, just because of the history if nothing else.

[timang]

no to management personnel too, not now. maybe in the future

[ziggy]

This is what I came up with:

Kevin Burleson 0
Kareem "Hangnail" Rush 20

Othella Harrington 75
Brevin Knight 100
Walter "Fabio" Herrmann 200
Jared Dudley 400
Adam "Seargent Awesome" Morrison 600
Raymond Felton 1000
Emeka Okafor 1500
Gerald "Crash" Wallace 2250
Jason Richardson 3000

Im not crazy about using players that arent on the team currently, or were hated. Why should a newb have to be Primoz, god no one wants to be primoz. Just start em small on the food chain.

Jermareo
Hollins
etc.

maybe for the first couple posts just call them D-League or something :)

Plus, I dont want to be known as Adam "sergeant awesome" Morrison, but I guess Ill just push myself to post more.

[timang]

ei matt, you can already customize your own user title since you've exceeded the 500 posts requirement. ^-^

Ziggy, that list is OK for me. Also I'd like to see Jumaine Jones at a fair position.

This brings up an interesting thing to me. If those with more than 500 posts can customize, then why bother having title rankings past that. Conceivably, I could be "Jason Richardson" now, even though I am far away from 3000 posts.

[BIGCatBobcat]

Jumaine has to be Jumaine "Green Light" Jones. I hated that guy. Seriously a guy that's out of the league in 2 years, Bernie, does he get to shoot everytime he touches the ball? I have terrible flashbacks when I see J-Rich sometimes with the head band, they kinda look alike.

Hmmmm... That, I didn't think about:g:

I'm open for suggestions, should I drop the top title to 1000 and make that the point where you can have custom user titles?

[Muttley]

Yeah, that sounds reasonable. Possibly even higher than 1000. I don't really have a great solution to it, as I like the ranking system and I also like the idea of custom titles.

[dvdbumpus]

How about we just wait until after the draft to decide where the players go?

[ammofan]

You spelled Sergaent wrong.....SERGAENT awesome is how you spell it.....

Go cats!

[ziggy]

Wise Words. We'll keep it as-is until after the draft.

[ALong13]

Personally I'd rather do it with current players, and not past players, maybe start off with players from last season

Hall of Famer (2000+)

Not bad!

I still think we should take it a step farther and put some nicknames in there like we had for Primoz "Gangsta" and Walter "Fabio".;)

Loving the new Title Rankings Zig! Great to see my Sean May nickname stuck:cool:

[Ampsportsduo]

Whoa whoa whoa, Raja gets a Wire reference nickname? Maybe we should get Sean May on the Bubbles diet. Zig was it you that came up with that name?

[ziggy]

:biggrin: Yep, I was a bigtime fan of The Wire. If I went with a non-wire nickname for Raja it probably would have been Raja "The Kobe Strangler" Bell.

[TattoodCats4life]

I think we should try to steer towards players who are active, or notorious (ie Kev, McInnis, Ham Biscuit), or super stars retired (none yet).

I say something like this

Sam "Fine Ham Biscuit" Vincent
Jeff "Sure I'll Start" McInnis
Sean "Nom Nom Nom" May
Narz
Ammo
Lexy
Lil Sean
S. Brown
etc in an ascending order...

I'd top it off with Meka, Wallace and maybe make LB 2500+?

[bing!]

Jeff "Sure I'll Start" McInnis
This one is golden.
