Sorry for the delay, but week 5 polls are in! Marc and I debated about which poll to release, but after some thought I decided
not to implement strength of schedule into the polls. If the polls actually provided purpose (say for post season play) I would be likely to include strength of schedule, but in this instance I will omit them and keep the schedule strength seperate. 12 votes were sent in, so thanks to Arikado, BlueLobstah, Daisydog, evergoo, Gothic Walrus, hero101, JoeB1233, Lurk, maigoyume, suko_32, The Chop Suey, and zitanix for sending them in. Now on to the polls!

Dropped from rankings:
Fallmoon 3
Some interesting poll changes have occured due to Fallmoon dropping out. The top 3 spots are in a very close contest with Arikado, JoeB and maigoyume being very close in votes. Mad D finally drops 3 spots no longer holding the #8 title, and still remaining the highest ranked player with only 1 win. BlueLobstah and TheChopSuey both jump 2 spots with wins over difficult opponents. Ingwe jumps a spot still even while losing a very close game with BlueLobstah. Some difficult games are bound to take place this coming week, and maybe we'll see some upsets?
Schedule Strength
After deciding that strength of schedule will not effect the polls, here is the strength of schedule including all the games played up through week 5 currently. In the meantime, let me explain the format. Schedule strength is determined by the win/loss ratio of all of the opponents of the player not including any games with the player vs the opponent. A perfect schedule (all wins, no losses) will result in a score of one, while the opposite (all losses, no wins) will result in a score of zero.
