Not sure about the other guys, but the above was the highlight of DCEBB2001's post for me...
AJ, you've participated in his thread on this topic and how it relates to the site he's currently updating...
IMHO, it's clear that he's got a more "fleshed out / thought out" approach to how the ratings should be done than anything Donny Moore had to say in this article...

Hopefully, a lively discourse will inspire everybody to "raise their game" where this is concerned...
That is, I believe, the "best case scenario" upshot of this type of discussion...
Happy gaming, gents!
