Why is GotFrag using a point system for Nations Ranking but still using a representative voting system for its teams World Ranking?
This is a complex issue but the simple answer is that individuals rarely if ever change nationality. A player from say Canada will be a Canadian no matter what team he plays for but the same can not be said for teams. If a player joins a team based in the UK one day and then a Swedish based team the next his impact on each of those teams potential in the World Ranking is affected by that roster change instantly. A roster change such similar to the above example is nearly impossible to calculate based on a point scale. For his national rank it doesnt matter what team he is on; just that he wins or places well in the tournaments he plays.
