I was being very serious. I do not troll. If you have a better metric, feel free to share it. If you want a comprehensive metric you probably need to take many factors into account, but that is hand-waving. There is a tradeoff between being easily computable and being precise in characterizing eliteness, and my metric certainly leans on the easy-computability side.. However, I do believe that it is quite precise. For example, if mod greets his opponents as he claims, then he isnt elitist..
You can't actually be serious, can you?
First off, not greeting someone in a game isn't elitist at all. I never greet people in my games unless i know them. Whether they are good or bad players. You can force your standard onto others, but it'll never say something objective, since there's no connection between elitism and greeting. Your metric is in no way 'quite precise'.
Second of all, you try to make it 'scientific' by showing data. If we were to assume that you actually used a decent metric, you just take a single tournament; a tournament you were in, coincidentally. Now, according to your standard, you should always greet someone, so you know the results will favor you. Therefore the one tournament sample you pick is also a cherrypicked one.
