Okay, home from work, now I have a moment to clarify.
I have the rankings up to date on my spreadsheet; I always do them as the show is happening, so you can always check out the most up to date rankings at http://rankings.vgcw.net
That said, updating this thread became...cumbersome. The hard part of making the posts is finding time between VGCW, work, personal projects, and downright R&R to get the front post's grid updated. It's all basic math, which is easy, but then I have to put in the difference and colors one by one, and my browser frequently freezes in the process because my weakass computer doesn't like Google Docs terribly well. I was handling it fine and without complaint until my job decided I don't get to have days off anymore (of note, I'ma quit if it don't shape up soon, man's gotta laze about).
Also, people kept pointing out errors in the front grid, which were almost always errors made while manually inputting differences in the post, so...
What I decided to do about a week and a half ago was to reformat the grid altogether so that it's easier for me to do, easier for you to read, and overall just less of a hassle altogether. What followed was a full work week with more parties than I care to remember. So what that'll probably entail is a new column either for "previous ranking" or for generic pluses and minuses colored only to who participated in the episode. Whatever's easier.
Due apologies!

Sorry we have been so hard on you Cran.
I mean it too - it sounds like work has really sucked for you lately, and I hope it improves soon (or that you find a good place to work if not).
This really is an unsung but highly valued task too - even if they're just numbers, the power rankings really give some context to how well a given character is doing - so thank you for continuing to do it, even as things get tough.

Thanks so much for all you've been doing cran! Watching the power rankings shift has always been a fun topic for my friends and I! Even if it gets behind or you've had a lot on your plate, letting you know we super appreciate it!

I think it might be for the best that somebody else does the rankings, we are really behind now.

R.I.P. Scorpion's #2 Power Ranking. It felt like he's been there forever.

I was bored so I updated them myself. Won't be completely the same as how Cran does it. I used the 200 for normal matches, 300 for contendership and 400 for title matches metric. As you can probably see, I didn't calculate things in the same way Cran does so they're not 100% accurate. For example in a multiman I docked points off EVERYBODY who didn't win, and I dunno if this is how they do things but I had the winner beat the average of the other competitors. So yeah, I do things differently. But until they're officially updated this is the best we've got, unless you want to check out the Momentum Rankings thread, which isn't a bad idea. Whatever, I did this for me! Not for you guys! Forgive the shit formatting, I did this in Notepad.

I really want to know how much of a rise Phoenix will have when he was in the bottom 5 of the Power Rankings.
