Re: Prizes for Top Players

Interesting suggestion that definitely triggers the right sorts of conversations about more tangible presence flowing between rounds.

I think it's right to give people a reason to care about those ranks, but not to give the winners an edge. The edge is laughingly small based on the above, but in PA these tiny variables can be capitalized into some momentum.

I'd be more interested in seeing some form of cross-round ranking or hall of fame, either based on all rounds from X point or based on the last 5 rounds akin to the coefficient used in Champions League seeding.

It seems madness that we have all the data, but we aren't using it to provide motivation to play across rounds and not do some last week dramatic crash.
