The fact that the GM team cannot understand a simple fact that first to 2 tourneys every month aren't really competitive or smart. On top of which adding 30 ranked rooms with individual mods, which with this player base is like shooting yourself in the face. Monthly resets discourage people from even trying. because there is going to be that one guy (nerobe) who is going to do 1k games and autowin that month. Design at its finest! All that doesn't mean that TB in it self cannot be competitive.
Of course if you expect TB to work around first to ones, yeah, not very balanced for competition. But the fact just is that in first to 5s, the better player wins 90% of the time. It's just is that people don't care anymore. I've certainly lost most interest after all this fucking about and can't see people starting to properly care anymore. I'm not gonna say that GMs fucked it all up, maybe we all were maybe hoping for too much from you guys.
If its an excuse for laziness why am I replying here at all? Why have a made list of suggestions for an update to this ranking system? Trying to make the best of something that isnt suited isnt the same as leaving it because it isnt suited. The very fact that that quote is within a suggestion/thought process about making the most of a ranking system we could have proves that some effort is being made, maybe you could make an effort to think about what youre saying before you say it.
In addition to this, I asked you what you thought of a few of the suggestions I made, and they addressed the majority of points you have made here and you agreed with my suggestions if I remember correctly.
Maybe I was hoping for too much with a thought out response from you.
Also this thread is for giving suggestions on how to improve the system not to fling hate at the GM team for not getting it how you wanted first time.
