When you say "we" as you complain, that means you intend to put in the work to update the list, right?? Riiiiight????

You could have just posted what you wanted to see instead of mindlessly complaining, but that would take more work than the guy mindlessly posting the thread.
10-04-2023 , 10:59 AM
and also i feel some of the TRUE legends deserve to keep their place on the new list, but maybe thats just me
forhayley trueteller otb willhasha katya etc
10-04-2023 , 11:04 AM
Trueteller and Katya still grind PLO and PLO 5 card highest stakes on GG a few times each year so they should definitely stay. Maybe a legends category could be added for forhayley, otb etc??
