DUBCC'S GOAT FOOTBALL TEAM: Peter Schmeichel vs Dino Zoff [FINALS]

[Noname]

Peter Schmeichel or Dino Zoff?

[Mac 10 †]

Surely this isn't the way it works, I can't vote for either.

Lev Yashin G.O.A.T.

[J @ M @ L]

I agree with Mac10.
I don't know who arranged it to be this way, or how you guys came to set it up this way... although this (assigning a different number of points for different ranks) works well when trying to come up with a "list" of the greatest players, but it's shit when trying to vote for the "GOAT"... for example..

1. Peter Schmeichel                   43 points 12 votes
2. Dino Zoff                              33 points 8 votes
3. Gianluigi Buffon                      30 points 11 votes
4. Lev Yashin                            25 points 5 votes


Interesting facts:
- There were only 5 people who voted for Lev Yashin. and they put him all at #1
- Lev Yashin and Schmeichel has the most #1 spots


^ that should've automatically implied that the final vote should be between Schmeichel and Yashin... just my 2 cents.

I know. Lev Yashin should be the GOAT. But we discused a long time about this, and everyone agreed to do it this way.
If anyone has a better idea, go ahead set it up. All i know is, we discussed a long time about this, we even started over again, and everybody agreed to it this way.
But im not gonna start over with it.

@MAC10
You also agreed to this. If you had a better idea you shouldve said it earlier.

If everyone agreed to do it this way, then cool... can't complain... I'm just saying it's not a very effective/accurate way of conducting something like this... a list yeah, but not a GOAT type thing.. it's all good though.

[K.Dub]

Of these two? Peter The Great Dane

[On The Edge of Insanity]

If everyone felt Yashin was the GOAT then he would he won the original voting and be in the final. I don't see any problem with doing it this way, these were the top two voted for so obviously the final vote will be between them.

Yeah, but the argument is about how the winner in the original voting is determined... should someone who has been ranked 3rd/4th like 8 times (I'm making these numbers to explain my point) be ahead of someone who was only voted for 5 times, but #1 all 5 times...? After all, we're voting for the GOAT, so isn't that what the #1 spot constitutes? Why assign points to somebody being voted in at #3? If you're only voting once before having to choose between two finalists, it would make more sense to have those ranked #1 most frequently... ya dig?

Interesting facts:
- There were only 5 people who voted for Lev Yashin. and they put him all at #1
- Lev Yashin and Schmeichel has the most #1 spots

If Yashin and Schmeichel have the most #1 spots in the voting... then shouldn't they be the ones squaring off for the GOAT voting?

[KURUPTION-81]

The Great Dane

[J @ M @ L]

As a result, and unsurprisingly, we now have:

Schmeichel - 5
Zoff - 0

But then what would be the point of us each choosing five players, we'd have to just pick one each.

I agree with what Jamal is saying...GP, seems like you've been having a bit of trouble running this.

If you're only having one preliminary before a FINAL round, that would actually make sense, since we're voting for the GOAT... creating a list of the top players is only useful when you're doing what they did with the Football/Basketball ones (aka playoff type voting)...

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Ok I see your point, don't think we could really start again now though.

[J @ M @ L]

Ok I see your point, don't think we could really start again now though.

Well, now you have this lop-sided match-up... 5-0 so far... when five people voted Yashin at #1 earlier (same as Schmeichel)... I think it would be a closer match-up if it were Yashin vs. Schmeichel... and it would make sense, since they both tied for the most #1 votes. But whatever... it's your guys' thing... not a big deal... no point in starting over... one possible solution would be to just take into account who got the most #1 votes, and just have the final round be Yashin vs. Schmeichel.

What you guys are doing now... having a list and assigning a different number of points to each rank would work out when voting for the other positions... since you'd have 4-4-2/4-3-3 (several players for each position)
