You don't even online bro? You don't know nuthin' bout dis game den!
In all seriousness, the most hopeful thing I see is in EA_Karo's OP and it says "We are looking to put together a well rounded group that represents the community as a whole, with
every part of the game in mind."
For the love of god let that mean that someone besides online ranked players get in. I really doubt that will be the case if it's a popular vote, but my fingers are crossed.
