Pinkball - are you happy to sanction this?

Certainly not.
I have not thought beyond the top 18 just yet. As you've seen already, it is vital that I give this my full, unrivalled attention. This is, after all, the official list.

Dear posters,

It would seem that the Great Leader is fatigued after his cogitation on the correct ordering of snooker players over the last fifty years. We must now allow him to rest and I am sure you will join me in thanking him for his divine wisdom and knowledge.

It is my greatest hope that over the coming days Pinkball san will be able to re-coup his mental strength and give further insights but until then please do not trouble him further.

You said it yourself Pink Ball - you can't base this list on what might be/have been achieved. Expecting Judd to win more from here shouldn't factor in, and Murphy's TC confortably overcomes the 1 ranking deficit.

Yeah, buck it, I'm convinced. I am indeed basing it on what I'm certain will happen.

Murphy moves up one more place, but that's it. No bucking way he was better than Doherty. Doherty played against the very best at their best and did not back down.

<ok> appreciate your flexibility on this.

First we must bestow upon our great Rosé Overlord gifts of pearl necklaces, that he may waken from his deep and restful slumber.

Only then may life's greatest mystery be resolved.

Ha ha ha,

I'm sat watching the snooker with a good friend of mine (who is a bit of a hammer). He said that all this list making is trivial and can't be answered. He even suggested that Hendry is better than ROS because he has more World Titles and ranking events. What an blue frog

How do I answer him?
