That won’t increase competitiveness. Rather, the opposite. Because that suggestion will force all the heavy-raiders to be split among all (or most of) the brackets and limit even further the non-raiding people who currently don’t have to compete against them. And then they’ll give up even more frequently, meaning your heavy-raiding klan will get all the medals, putting that goal out of everyone else’s reach for good, effectively ending the game for everyone who’s not raiding with you.

Yes, I catastrophize. It’s what I do.

I’d like to see smaller brackets with a more even distribution (which I think PD mentioned above). I was actually talking to a fellow klanmate yesterday in IRC about it – but coming from a totally different perspective. It’s flat out impossible for me to medal in the top bracket as it is now. 50% of that bracket is ep2beta. For a week or two, I was the *only* other raiding person in that bracket (at least that was actually attempting to win anything) – now I have two others. It’s still horribly unbalanced and has really killed my motivation to raid. (And pretty much the rest of our klan too)

(umm… not that I expect to medal every week by a long shot, but a chance of something more that 0% would be nice to have)
