Hello everyone and welcome to the sixth Winter ladder update! First of all, this really isn't a "weekly" ladder update if there really wasn't one last week, so I apologize for such an absence, but I was away from home. Anyways, I would like to thank anyone who has suggested some ideas from the last update and will consider a few for my future updates. These updates are going to receive a big change in the future, but first I’m just going to need a little more help on your guys’ end. As for the update this week, there will be less info under the notes section as an early change I am thinking about. I want to give you guys more detail and fewer boring calculations. But anyways, lets get back to focusing on what this update is meant for -- showing you all how the Singles and Doubles ladder has progressed since the last week!

  • /\: Moved up from last week
  • \/: Moved down from last week
  • --: Retained the same position from last week
  • [NR]: Was Not Ranked from last update
  • Singles Notes
    • Atomsk takes his 1st place spot back from dabuz, as he has not lost a match since the 6th of this month. In dabuz's position, it doesn't really help that he suffered 2 losses in a row! One to Ozz and another to YoshQ!
    • HolyNightmare is known to usually be in the top placings in every AllisBrawl ladder season. He does it again and reaches the 2nd place spot, using his main, R.O.B.
    • Now something we all haven't seen in a LONG time...a Donkey Kong player in the top 32 since ook last season! He goes by the name of Dr. Grandpa and is performing quite averagely as I can see, but just playing really good people.  
    • These rankings were taken at 7:30 AM ET on Friday, February 19, 2010.
    Doubles Notes
    • What's this?! There is a new team that has taken the 1st place spot and that would be "Da Dragonz!" This team consists of Key and Inspectah, as mikeray4 and Bizkit have fallen to 4th place, being kicked off their throne for once!

    • There are also a lot more activity and new teams on the rankings and they seem to not be playing around! I'm seeing a lot more good players from singles teaming and entering doubles, getting ahead very quickly! Tearbear and ChocoNaner, known as "flapjack and knuckles" used to team in the last season and did exceptionally well. Now they are teaming again and have made it to the top 16 already with 16 wins and 0 losses.
    • Something fun that I can spot is another team called "Da Dragon Slayerz," which consists of Waft-OLi and Chad81 (formally known as Debom, who one of the last season's champs). I am unsure if their objective is to actually defeat the top team, or just surpass them. Maybe we will see soon!
    Future Changes?
    Now that the placings are shown and taken care of, I want to bring you guys back to the changes I was mentioning at the beginning of the update. As I said, these updates are going receive some major changes and you as a community will be a big part of it! I know I asked for suggestions last week, but still require a little bit of feedback from whoever is willing to help me out! Here are a few things I took into consideration and are thinking about:

    -These “weekly” updates may become bi-weekly or even monthlies. This would make each update more to look forward to as the changes from the last update to the new would have much more changes. What do you guys think? Should the frequency of the updates change? Or should they remain weekly?

    -Someone suggested I should maybe add in player interviews with the top 32/16 and have one each article. Only question I have for you guys on this is what questions would you guys expect to be asked? We have already provided player interviews in the past. I have heard some were boring and more interesting questions should be asked. I want to make these as entertaining to you all as possible. Help me out here.

    -I was also interested in changing the notes section of the rankings. Reducing the amount of statistics, increasing more detail. Maybe going into more about certain players? What details would be nice to see?

    -Adding in some more fun features to the articles. Maybe adding in featured replays from your ladder matches? Finding some funny feedback that some angry people leave on your profiles? Suggestions?

    -Any other details I should be more into? Any suggestions help that would provide a better form of new entertainment for you all to read. Just be serious please.

    So this is all I have on my mind right now. Your answers will influence my thoughts on the changes for the updates. I would be VERY appreciative if you all provide some feedback on here and maybe add in thoughts of your own. I just don’t want these articles to just be another boring thing to look at on the front page. I want this to be entertaining for you guys! The wi-fi scene of Brawl may not be as hyped as offline, but it is still something that can be very much fun! Thank you all for any help and feedback I receive.
    There is a over a month left in this ladder season, and the competition is just as fierce as ever! Remember the AllisBrawl playoffs await the top 60 of singles and 30 of doubles, each event giving out over $350 in cash prizes to the top 4 placings! Everyday the rankings change and new names reach the top, as older ones drop. Who will still remain at the end of the season to participate in the playoffs? No one knows! Until then, we would like to congratulate the top 32 players and 16 teams in reaching your respective placings thus far! Until next time everyone!
