"Other individuals do not have sheets and therefore it's hard to compare data between them, while Smogon Tour has a whole different set of problems to them (live tournaments, different server, some days are perceived by some to be better, players like x tier more, you also have to join the tournament in a set window, and so on). Furthermore, the last four seasons have had approx. 28% of their players with 0 points, but it's harder to gather how many joined without ever joining Smogtours as you do not have act posts like you do for Slam and Classic"
