Moonsinger still, probably.
Misotu is very good as well.
Mylene doesn't do the HoF (I think) so we can't rate her.
EDIT: Top tip for girls - have a username beginning with "M". Dial M for something.
Moonsinger hasn't shown in years. Moonsinger is also the queen of marabuse + inca cheesing. IMO the skill required in her wins puts her 3rd on your list, not first...especially now that she probably hasn't even played since before I had 1000 posts
.
IMO right now Mylene is the best player who is known to be female.
HoF has a lot of good players (Tachy, bcool, Sun Tzu Wu, Wastintime, and so forth) but I don't think those games represent actual best play (this is one of the reasons I've been in some long and on occasions hot-collared arguments against some players and HoF staff for civ IV and especially V...HoF advertises "best play" but often represents something else entirely), they represent one's ability to 1) cook settings 2) spam games and 3) play at least reasonably well.
I hate hate hate hate that, because it puts smoke and mirrors on players and leaves others underappreciated. For example, Misotu has some absolutely incredible HoF diplo wins -------> but how many of those OCC relied on awesome starts + PHI/FIN? I've studied how a lot of the top finishers played. The answer is a good deal of them. Someone reading the logs could probably match her tech for tech and beat her if lucky enough if they tried enough times.
There are some good crossover players who aren't strictly HoF too (Lexad, Jesusin, etc). IMO a good barometer is how players contribute in XOTM as well as SGOTM games, and forum games where you're not allowed to run cooked starts. Adaptive play where people are forced to change strategy for the map instead of changing the map until it fits the strategy they want to use.
Was I really the best player in G major 96? Really? I don't think I was, but according to HoF I am the #1 player on deity/quick standard size right now.
...No way in hell that's accurate. Just saying.
I've seen a lot of strategy, a few games played, and some of the planning done by Mylene. I think Misotu is very good also but IMO best KNOWN female player right now is Mylene.
FWIW, the best player on the forum overall at this moment I think is Rusten
. The usual deity S&T guys are good, but some of the things I've seen from Rusten over past few months prove it IMO.
