Reward + Cost
Considering we have 160 event's and the top points you could achieve by winning is 20 points + if you cleared an area before anyone else which you most likely did not since you skipped to get faster xp so let's assume you receive 22+ then you would still require to win around 46 time's more while being in the lead with 1 fight where you only got half the point's in order to gain the top prize.
let's now assume you are among the average player: 2-7 points pr, win but let's assume you are at the top and winning 9 points with the top 10 reward, then you would still need that price 111-112 times to gain the top prize. let's now see at the bottom 30% that gain 2-5 point's max, even if a player kept winning 5 points he would require a total of 200 win's which can not be achieved even after the 13+ additional race's where implemented. What does this cause: Player's are aiming low since it will require them to be awake 24/7 to play race's that are not within their timezone, most player's will give up after reaching 26-50 point's since it requires too much of them to participate in so many without a slight hope. what can be done: More mini-race's can be implemented so that there's at least 1 race every 2 hour's to participate in. some race's could have extra bonus reward point's, top player alive reward could be changed to top % based player's alive, this would both expand the possibilities for player's who want to try participate and even when 10000 player's participate you can aim to be among the top 10-20% to get 1-2 extra points rather than stopping once you reached a specific level |

" I did not understand this. " The bottom 30% are not supposed to win the top prize. Should be self explanatory. Every contestant is not supposed to win the gold medal. Find a better example to do math on. Last edited by Hassefar60 on Nov 22, 2013, 10:37:26 AM

i know only the top are meant to win the top prize's but to win the top prize's you need to be ranked the first in a lot of race's especially considering that you will miss 20-50% of the event's either be-course it is during work/school hours or midnight on normal day's so you will more or less have 70-120 race's that you will be able to attend at the best unless you don't have work or school.

Would be kinda boring if you could reach the top rewards by being mediocre in "20-50%" of the race season.
