Nope, sorry. As I stated earlier in this thread, I feel that 3 out of 4 is a reasonable minimum for Universal. 2 out of 4 would be better described as "Hemispheric."

Okay, what about a universal ranking where I am ranked last in X, SNES, and GX? I mean, it is possible that I do own all 4 games and I'm just too 'challenged' to operate 3 of them. Can you really hold it against me that I can't read the directions on the boxes?

Now, as I have FZX and FZMV, and I'm going to get FZGX at the time of the PAL release, will I suffer in the Universal rankings for not owning FZSNES? If I do, I can understand it. You want to give the advantage to players with all 4 games.

But what about this:
3 games out of 4 is the minimum for being ranked in Universal. So why couldn't we just take the 3 best games for everyone?

I'll try to explain:
Lets say someone's ranked 20th/200 in X, 30th/200 in MV, 40th/200 in SNES and 50th/200 in GX. For this person you'd give him/her points for his/her 3 best games, ie. you leave the game with the worst points out. So, in this case, the GX rank wouldn't count.

With this system players with "only" 3 versions wouldn't be punished, but players with all 4 games would still have the advantage they deserve.

If you didn't understand this, I'm sorry. Comments, please.

I wouldn't like that because then I would probably still be ranked last in Universal I need the advantage for owning all four games.

Well, you would have an advantage, as you, unlike players with only 3 games, would have a choice: You have 4 games, but your rank only depends on your 3 best games.

Personally, I think all 4 games should count, why?... because it's a Universal competition. I think you should have to be good at ALL the F-Zero games to be the 'Universal Champion'.

Precisely my way of thinking.
