Okay, so, I’ve been VERY disappointed with what I’ve seen here. Like, seriously! You’ve got ‘Heroes’ and ‘Villains’ babbling at each other, idiots running around the Nexus sharing their schemes with anyone who happens to have a pointy helmet…
No, no, no, this won’t do.
Where I’m from, we did Villainy right (and YES, it IS something you put on your business cards). We had a galactic leaderboard to keep track of who the greatest actually is. This helped keep everyone honest and let everyone know who the major players are. That way, you knew if the person you are talking to can back up their smack talk, or if they are just a sandwich with delusions of grandeur.
I’m going to do you people a favour and put one together myself. You want to know how I score it? You want to know how to earn points? You want some insight into whether this system will be fair and just?
TOO BAD.
You people have had more than enough time to organise something like this already and you've dropped the ball, so I get to make the decisions now! Do something you think is worth points, you let me know, I increase your ranking. Or I don’t. I’m clearly one of the few people around here with any sense of judgement whatsoever. You can like it, you can hate it, or you can go set up your own leaderboard, which will make you look lame, desperate and pathetic.
‘But Lord Dominator’ I hear you cry, ‘What makes you so great? Why should we care what you think?’
Well, you don’t have to. But any real, professional Villain knows that half the point is the respect and admiration of your peers. So, you can ignore it if you like – but you should know that not everyone out there will.
Do you really want to be part of a list without being at the top?
That’s what I thought.
Submissions are now open. The starting positions will be published in 14 days. Contact me through the Dataverse to make your case for inclusion. Evidence will help your argument. Some of you are big enough and scary enough that I've already started to pencil you in, because I know who you are and that's worth something.
You absolutely can make submissions for other people. Heroes, if you want to let the world know about some dark, terrible threat who beat you up and stole your lunch money, this is a great way to achieve that.
And don’t bother trying to threaten, intimidate or pull one over on me to increase your ranking. That’s just tacky. Tackiness never increases your ranking.
You are welcome to attempt bribery, of course.
