T100- Some Perspective...
minnow
Any place that interests me.
I thought I'd weigh in on a topic that has been periodically raised: Tuscl's own Top 100 list. IMO, an imperfect list with imperfect criterion, but not totally flawed.
From my perspective of having visited 24 of the 100 clubs on list, 18 of which I submitted reviews on during my Tuscl membership: Clubs make the list for any number of reasons. Clearly, certain clubs have their fan base, liking them for whatever they're good at. For some, it may be eye candy ( 4 Play, Bourbon Street Circus), $$ Value/Bang For $$ (Brass Flamingo, DV-COI). Many on the list combine hot dancers and some good mileage (Mons Venus, Baby Dolls- Dallas, Tootsies, OG-LV, etc). Some are there because they're the best option in town (TD North- ABQ). Then, there are some that may not be tops in some tangible attributes, but somehow make things come together for a good time/atmosphere (Hi Liters, Brass Flamingo, Cheetahs- Pompano Beach, Cowboys- Lexington).
The T100 clubs I've been to cover a wide spectrum- Some clubs, a fair percentage of dancers wouldn't make the cut at some other T100 clubs. Some have spotless restrooms rivalling top hotels, while one in particular I pray that I never have to take a dump there. Like many of you, I could name some clubs that should be on T100 list( some have, but slipped a bit in ratings). Yet, at the same time, virtually all T100 clubs I've been to, I'd pay a return visit to, and can understand how some people would swear by those clubs. A very small percentage of reviewers are active on this DB, yet they have credible reviews. Your thoughts.....

First of all, I don't want to argue here against good ol vets.
Second, I too appreciate all the reviews on TUSCL.
In any case, I think it would be complicated if the TOP100 list starts to micro-manage all the clubs details. I don't look at the list myself too often, but the first time I saw it was because I wanted to figure out what the club standards are like outside of my local area.
It would be cool if the T100 list gets a bit modified to count more details, but IMO the reviews of clubs heavily depends various personal observation.
Thus, I think what we have now is good enough for the general representations.

I look at the list this way...
Let's say my own personal Top 10 list is set. In a month it would likely be different. We all have our ideas of what makes a club a "Top" club. Any list is going to be very subjective, and therefore, of limited value to any single person.
However, it does not encompass the preferences of all strip club patrons. For example, if you prefer dive bars the way I do, you will not find some of the best clubs of that genre on the list. To find the best dive bars you must combine in depth reading of reviews with your own detective skills, and some unrewarding field work. LOL! Well, someone has to do it!
Two things to look for. How many reviews does a club have. The more it has the harder it is to change the rankings. Up or down.
The second thing to look for is who is doing the review. Shills stand out and are easily spotted. And a guy with 3 reviews is a lot less believable than a guy with 50. The experience factor. My best sources are my personal TUSCL buddies. We share info by PM & emails that we would not put in a review. I have about a dozen guys that I call buddies.
Still the list does have value. I would like to see a new category and I have submitted it to Founder. A list of the top 10 clubs with the most reviews in the last 30 days. This would show which clubs are currently the hottest. Things do change.
Oh, and forget the Mexican whore houses.
Let me ask you this guys??? Honestly, do you think I am a shill?
I'll sing the praises of the clubs I like. I'll also give a not so good review of a club when I feel the experience is not up to my standards.
Just kidding, of course. You wish to see a shill, check this URL...

That club couldn't be a 10 if for no other reason, it's location!
Currently planning my next trip with the increased volatility of the top ten will require further research on my next destination.
