In Response To: Revised Giants List (Long) (Jake Jacobs)

Thanks for this detailed answer. 34 ballots coming from Bosnia are quite suspicious, 2015 was not the first year a tournament in Bosnia had taken place. Anyway they voted in the way we have seen, what I am expecting for the next list is at least the weights of the votes to be changed, for example 1p for the 16-32th, 2p for 8-16th, 4p for the 1-8th.

About millions of dollars one player is supposed has won in private matches who cares, this is not public information and we don't know the quality of the opponents. My opinion is, for a player to be on the Giants list, he must have played at least one international tournament in two years. For the inactive players there is the Hall of Fame.
