Participants will very often try to rank the members of the team for various reasons. We do not practise assigning titles in the team, so we do not have a team leader or deputy, but we also do not pretend to all have the same experience. You should not be upset that the participants are trying to evaluate you; this comes out of a natural tendency to find out more about someone they have just met, especially when this someone puts them in difficult and sometimes uncomfortable situations where they are observed or exposed to criticism. It is up to you to express your criticism and observations in a way that does not disparage anyone or play favourites, and above all to do it in a way that is understandable and clear to those to whom it is addressed.
