Not only is there nothing wrong with third place, or any place for that matter, you might not have to worry about me for too much longer anyway. Unless something dramatic happens with my illness soon, I won't be able to continue competitive play anymore.

I
know
that
I
was
a
key
pusher
in
the
seasonal
league
idea
to
motivate
more
competitive
play,
but
sitting
on
the
bench
and
seeing
it
from
the
outside
has
me
thinking
a
bit
differently.
Even
if
we're
a
small
game,
the
amount
of
mental,
physical
and
emotional
energy
any
given
player
has
to
burn
through
to
maintain
competitive
play
is
huge.
It's
a
very
demanding
game.

For that reason I think that if we do go the way of seasons, there needs to be downtime to prevent pressure burnout. It might also be good to reward not in terms of #1/#2/#3, but more... Arbitrarily somehow. What we have with the colour system and what MOBAs do with player "leagues" is more fitting. Whilst they do divide players into boxes, there's much less psychological burden than "you're #1 and you have to play to the point of misery to keep that up".

I might not have communicated what I'm thinking quite accurately enough here, but the jist is that we're developing around a game that we love, but don't want to run the risk of it becoming an abusive lover through changes that put us onto a conveyor belt of high-pressure.

I'm all for more badge ideas and ANYTHING that brings us closer as ZK homies, to dampen the psychological burden of competitive play.
