Utah Power Rankings

The Utah Power Rankings is a list compiled by a pre-selected panel which lists the top ranked players of the state of Utah. The Melee Utah Power Rankings was started by Gojira on May 16, 2007. Shortly before Brawl's release, Gojira stopped updating the list, since everyone was anticipating Brawl's release. But after the release of Brawl, Gojira lost interest in continuing the list, and never got to making a Brawl Power Rankings list.

Months after Brawl's release, Utah has had multiple lists based solely on a mathematical formula that lengeta suggested. But none of these lists were really made known, since they were posted in the midst of the posts of the old Power Rankings thread but never got posted in the first post of the thread. On October 6, 2008, Perfect Chaos took over management of Utah's Power Rankings. The opening list was a working list made through Perfect Chaos's sole judgment, but everyone (that spoke up) in the community agreed that it was a good list before it was officially made public. All lists after which is, and will be, decided on by a full panel.

The rank 0 was just a joke, in order to fool him into think that was the real surprise. The real surprise was revealed the following day, which was: Dai-A was placed on the newly created "Hall of Fame" at this time.
