I disagree. I am unable to directly buy one of the most popular items for sale on Kyoubai, unlike one of my Alts. While grinding for moar files is the most profitable part of the business, it is not the only path.
However, that said, I believe too many categories were clbum-separated. We should have started this with Speedruns only, to test the waters. |

I don’t see this change as anything worse than what was in place. We now have a top 5 rather than just 1. In most cases that would have been better to simply make the thing a “top 5” peen.
I would still very much prefer a monthly reset. With so much limited by 4 visits a day, the boards will simply always remain stagnant and exclude new players.
EDIT: But, yeah it’s wicked strange that the job board is sitting the way it is. I don’t know. I have no real optimal suggestion for the whole thing. scully edited this message on 03/19/2009 5:41PM |

There are a lot of boards where players who weren’t even trying for them got cheap peens while others who had been going for them for months and months got screwed out because their competition just happened to be the same clbum. That’s the difference between this and a Top 5 system which wouldn’t hurt anyone.
Resets and stuff are interesting (monthly wouldn’t make sense imo but w/e) but that’d be a seperate issue. An equivalent of ascension (KoL) or looping (BvS) would make things more interesting as a lot of players just finish the episode(s) and quit as currently there are few solo goals if you’re not willing to spend more than an hour every few days on this game if dom doesn’t suit one’s schedule. |

Requesting peens for topping the overall leaderboards. The inner diamond in me is weeping at only having to beat ~25% of the population (or whatever the clbum breakdown is) to get the “top” peen.

Making peens for each clbum only to make a new inaccessible top peen overall would totally defeat the point.
There’s basically no clbum difference between boards. The only purpose of clbum splitting would be to make it harder to board hog. |

Which could be fixed easily if a leaderboard E-Peen gets awarded to the Top 5 of a leaderboard.

Milestone peens are way overdue, but wouldn’t necessarily replace leaderboard peens.
I like Ricket’s idea, but really that is what we have had all along. It is obviously a flawed system. Being a diamond style player should involve excellence in play, not simply being here longest. Obviously longevity will always give advantage, but it should not make things literally impossible. That impossibility angle is very discouraging to new players. |

Shii Posted: So why should it exist? Giving 5 people peens, when 4 people didn’t earn it, is dumb.

Don’t misunderstand me, I support most of the ideas put forth here.
Whether top 5 get the peen or top in clbumes do, I would still have gotten the Flamebate peen that I did, so it makes no difference to me.
Milestones are long overdue, I agree. |

Why do the peens exist in the first place? They’re to give the players goals, a purpose for using the site. Giving out clbum peens accomplishes this, so does making one for the overall leader. |

Lol, I like having clbum peens. It makes goals easier and prevents board hogging. I’d be perfectly happy keeping the boards how they are.
I’m just posting because no one else likes them and swapping ideas and compromise is constructive. |
