"Mårten Howe contributed a lot of his matches from the last couple of years which is great! Thanks a lot! And I have to say I'm impressed by his PR performance! Awesome! :-) "

I've already told you this privately, but I think it's worth repeating. Allowing people to submit their own matches to public database will in the long run result with very deceiving and non objective PR results (at least for some people). I understand that you want to encourage people to submit their own matches to you, but I believe that those matches should somehow be marked so that when I go through someone's profile I can clearly see which matches were submitted by themselves and which ones were officially streamed (or submitted by other people). So for every submitted match you should add the info stating which username submitted it. I also think that private matches submitted to public database should be excluded from PR average calculation, but that's another thing to discuss. First and most important step would be to clearly mark those matches. You told me it's not easy to know the source of all of the matches (especially very old ones), but it doesn't really matter. You do know which ones were submitted to you and by whom and it shouldn't be hard to add that info. Just that for now.

I don't think this would be too much extra work and it would very much increase the objectivity and reliability of BG Studio database. Again, maybe you don't care about this, but it would be a shame if such an amazing and wonderful tool like BG Studio would turn into PR ego contest. Of course, BMAB has a lot of useful and trusted data, but why not also have objective real life PR list?

Btw, this post has nothing to do with Marten and his privately submitted matches, it's just a general observation.
