Yeah, I've read your posts, but I still don't think you actually understand it. It's not about who  actually is the strongest, it's about who is perceived as such, by the people/media gossip in the Tower and who has a reputation like that. For E-Rank all of the candidates were E-Rank for a very short time, except for Mad Dog, who was said to have stopped climbing for a while, before the Workshop Battle. It's not really that surprising that the higher we go, the longer people take and the more established names there are. In E-Rank Androssi was probably considered top 5 just because of her name alone. What did she actually do that deserves such a high estimation? And now for D-Rank that's just not enough anymore. It doesn't mean that she's not strong enough, but rather that the things she's doing don't amount to as much noise as people who dominate that area for hundreds of years. And I don't get why there can't be 4 people in the top 3. It's nothing out of the ordinary to have a tied place.
