I noticed there were fewer than 100 players in the final ranking list for 2012 - normally there's about 130. Is anyone concerned about this? Is there a decline in popularity of the game or was it just not enough people meeting the criteria to appear on the ranking list? |

I see there are 18 players from 2011 ranked under 1300 who didn't make the 2012 list. It seemed like 2012 had tougher players from the top right down the list |

Also samuel there were 30 players in 2011 who were not active enough to qualify for the 2012 new standards for ranking: 25 games per quarter or 100 games for the year. Thus the 2012 list is more streamlined with active players. This is a good thing I think. The all time list has 136 players |
