BTW, I posted the 2 questions for a reason. You may think about it when voting.

I wondered who people thought were the best players. And I also thought there might be a difference when a person had to list whom they would prefer to play with.

In other words, I think everyone likes to win. BUT, for an example, I'm not sure I would want to play with a person who dictated the entire game plan to me..."Do this, DO that!". Yeah, maybe we would win but to be a puppet might not be in the interest of everyone...win or not.

To give a recent example...a team effort with Alneyan and myself. Though our ability and Ratings may have differed a bit, I thought (think) our discussion on tactics and research, etc. was such that we both felt like each of us played an important part in the game outcome.

There was a game in the past where 3 of us challenged 3 others. In that game, I took a "supporting" role. Used my racial points to the advantage of my teammates. This is the point I am aiming for when I ask about who you would like as an ally. This is NOT to say I am the greatest ally around (and am certainly not trying for votes)...I'm just trying make a distinction between who the greatest (in opinion) players are and who you would prefer playing with in a team game.

Does that make sense?
