Here's a reminder on how the system works. One Ratings Challenge marker will serve as the person you will send your challenges into. He will then rebuttal your challenge. Both your challenge and his rebuttal will then be sent to the Final judge who will look at the evidence from both sides and make a ruling based on this, with the process working more like an actual court room judgment. We've developed this process in order to make the ratings challenge ruling slightly more consistent and more democratic. This year we have three Ratings Challenge markers and one Final judge that will rule on every challenge except his own.
So here are your instructions:
Each team is going to get a maximum of 6 ratings challenges on a maximum of 5 players. OV can not be challenged. Goalie challenges will not be on the ranking that the skill ratings (SK, AG, RB, SC, HS, RT and PH) are based on. Instead of making a challenge on the OV rating, the challenge should be made on the position in the ranking (Ville will post the goaltender ratings order for reference). The other 6 goaltender ratings (DU, EN, SZ, PS, EX and LD) can be challenged like normal skater ratings.
Please make sure your ratings challenges are well researched and worthwhile. A successful ratings challenge is likely to be built around stats or scouting reports.
Your ratings challenge submission format should appear as follows"
Email Title: "HFNHL Ratings Challenge - Team Name"
1. Player Name
2. Rating being challenged
3. Current Rating
4. Suggested Rating
5. Reasoning or Argument for challenge (aka your proof)
The submission deadline for these challenges is going to be Sunday, October 19th at 11:59pm EST.
Please see the below list to figure out who you will be sending your challenges to.
