Default Stars SNG Leaderboard Questions

Hi all,
Currently the idea of a SNG leaderboard is being thrown around in house at Stars, however, during our talks we have come across a quandry in that we feel some players would not like to sacrifice their anonymity for the prizes associated with the leaderboard. My simple question is; how many serious SNG players would opt out of publicly being listed on such a leaderboard? A simply yes or no will be suffice or more elaborate thoughts are also welcome as well. As always any other suggestions and what not can also go here. Thank you in advance.

If your going to do this, it would be great if you could make it based on skill as opposed to volume.

So if I go 1/1 I'll top the leaderboard? Great idea? Or do you propose some kind of complicated formula that takes into account standard deviations based on your volume played and what your actual results were? Somehow I doubt that will be great promotional material.

I wouldn't care about the publicity.

In fact the only reason I play PP instead of Pokerstars is the fact that I can get $$ from the leaderboard at PP.

yes plz dooooo it ty

plus, people can also check the leaderboard on sharkscope regardless if the player wants to stay anonymous.

Proly the best idea would be to count just straight up VIP points accumulated from SNGs? Just a thought

I dont know how it would be done, i just gave a suggestion like jurollo asked.

Partys leaderboard is dominated by the players who play the most volume and it isnt nessesarily based on how good you are, just how many tables you can simultanously play, and for how long.
