Hello, TheHunter-Master. I have understood since first read that you're not asking for players to simply lay down just so you and others can win. I understand that what you're really asking is for those who have learned and mastered a particular comp to give others a shot now and then. This made me smile because I've always been a fan of the underdog, because it's an unselfish petition, and because someone had the cojones to devote a thread to a "hot topic" such as this. Seeing the general response though, all I can do is repeat the saying, "
You catch more bees with honey". This is what I mean..

All these years i watched and participated in lots of competitions checking other competitors,so i would like to share my thoughts with you and them.There are about 10-20 players (dont want to mention their names)who keep joining in the same competitions over and over again.... and again.OK, i know you found the way so you can win every time ,Bravo,Bravo,but now back off for a while. Let someone else win the trophy , i see same players tryharding to get the 1st position, you see them too , just let them get it,your whole world will fall apart if you dont join that competition and let sme else get it,its so important,really?
What I see here is your frustration speaking out. Years worth, as you mentioned. Even though I'm a
casual EW comp player, I can understand your frustration. Do you know this other saying, "
Hate the game, not the player"? I think that the main issue is that some of the comp(s) can/do lend themselves to certain tactics/game mechanics which can be more easily repeated than others, and those will always certainly be learned and taken advantage of. That's just human nature, and I'm not implying any kind of exploitation/dirty play whatsoever. I'm also not telling you to hate the game tHC. I'm telling you that with the way the game and the comps have been created, this is simply
what is. With that being said, I think that if you had taken a warmer approach rather than seeming to be in attack mode here, the general response may have been warmer in return.

Now, many of you will say ''if they want to win just try harder to beat him etc.'' other will say '' that why its called competition'' comparing this to real life, some other would say '' they like competitions instead of chasin the HS or normal hunting''. I respect all opinions but still thats not an excuse.Its all about respect,i really hope some of them read this post and really make them think ''may i back off for a while?'' ''may i am being too greedy?''.
I really hope one day EW will change the competition system so when i join a competition and make top 3 i could not join again in the same competition for 3 rounds.
Just to make it clear im not posting this being jealous of other players. No, even if i dont like competitions i won few of them,almost every one i participated i won it, as i said it has been years since i wanted to post something like this and after what i saw last three days forced me to do so.With all the respect i just share my thoughts everyone has his own opinion.Thank you for your time.
Since English is not your first language, I think "compassion" or "benevolence" would be a more fitting word than "respect", and may have also led to the general response. I see what you're saying here. When you mastered a comp you felt that continuing to repeat it time and time again would be taking advantage of the comp and therefore you graciously left the field of play. That's a rare and notable act and I applaud it, and it's not unfair to ask the community to at least ponder upon the notion, but again it's all about how you approach a subject as "touchy" as this.
As far as any other kind of "solution" or means to an end.. There are any number of ways to make the comps better in general/reduce repeatability, but I wouldn't predict anything being changed anytime soon. I think all anyone can do is choose their battles wisely, learn up on the best methods, and try their very best. Happy hunting.
