I mean you no offense but you aren’t reading that table correctly. The only points considered are the 2017 WGP, 2015 Wold Cup, 2016 OG and the 2018 World Championships. The VNL is for money only. That and training. If the 2018 VNL points were a factor then there would be a column dedicated to that tournament. Therefore the 2019 VNL will also have zero bearings on world rankings. |

You shouldn't worry about offending anyone if you are right. I saw that, but I thought maybe it was not updated, or reflected the ranking used to determine the OQ brackets. The VNL is listed in the Wikipedia listing (not fail proof, I know.) I haven't tried [re-] calculating the current point total for a team to see which VNL figure was used. I guess that's one way to find out. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIVB_World_RankingsI haven't been able to find anything that definitively states any changes to the ranking system. |

I’m pretty sure I’m correct but even so I try to be polite. A lot of posters on here get caddy and that sort of bugs me. Plus I love discussing all of these things. Yeah that wiki link shows the same totals as the official FIVB link. I don’t like that the VNL doesn’t count. I think all tournaments they play internationally should have some bearing on your world ranking. I like the idea someone shared above about adopting a system similar to FIFA where you gain points as you win matches or maybe even more points when you beat someone higher up in the rankings than you or something to that effect. |
